Edited by: Sarah McTeef on 19/06/2007 22:15:57 They said the DT would be 24h but it was only 22:10, how can this company hope to keep it's customers if it can't even... something...
Just have to keep with the law of nature that no matter what happens someone will complain about it on the forums.

If they put a shorter time, you'd probably moan too lol .
They say longer to give them the chance to sort out any problems that come up i'd guess .

You just have to wait, there is a group of players at the entry who are stuck trying to enter... until that situation is resolved, (a) you have to wait and (b) estimated time to resolve is about as long as it takes to make the total downtime counter 24 hours. ;-)
Both problems solved perfectly ;)
Oh, BTW, i updated just a minute ago, can't lock in and i'm wondering if that crappy language change means that all my other settings are gone down the garbage hole as well. Damn those non persistant settings, i have the feeling almost every time a new patch comes out i have to go restore them again. :-(

How about: They state a longer downtime so that less ppl are there trying to get online the minute the server boots up? ;-) -- |

its good to see that for the first time in CCPs major patch history they have taken the advice given by me and other players - overestimates of downtime > underestimates. overestimates make people feel warm and cuddly when servers up "early", and lessens the initial loading. underestimate irritates people, and guarantees 25k people clicking "connect" the instant server is up.
Kudos, CCP!

exactly. something like this often ends up with unexpected hitches - no plan survives contact with the enemy, or in this case the server
they provide for themselves some breathing room in which they can fix the (new)bugs and iron out the creases. afterall, testing with a few hundred people is one thing, going live and interacting with thousands of players often causes things to show up that wouldn't have been as easy to spot beforehand. ========================================== Iy

You sir, are making more than a complete fool out of yourself here. Please come and do a fly-by in Eve later, so we can all point and laugh...
So sad...

I was going to say, does everyone have a standard pre-fabricated macroed reply to any thread that hints of a complaint against CCP?
Kudos for getting server back up before time. And no it isn't the first. When we had the big server changeover (admittedly no patch, just a whole new load of hardware) that came back up about 4 hours or so before the estimate.
<serious> A marketing note - Underestimate your capabilities, overdeliver. This means when a company promises to call you with an answer by the end of the day, expect a call around lunchtime! </serious>

They [CCP] put a deadline at 24 hours because they knew it would take less time to get the servers up and running. Now everybody's pleased and CCP is once again made out of win in the eyes of many players. ------ --Don't get saucy with me Bernaise!-- |
