  1. You know, if this were the type of company that occasionally surprised people with exceptional customer service they might have done a lot more with one of the most valuable franchises in history.
  2. Basically my thoughts are the sycophants are some combination of weak people, fanbois, and people that don't actually have to pay for the game with their own money.
  3. There are plenty of other choices.
  4. Or you can use no resources at all in just remaining silent?
  5. 2007 called and pointed out it's now 2014 and a much more competitive environment with totally different tech.
  6. Well, in the future, games like this will be "one server" (cluster) and we won't have nonsense like this. This obviously won't be the game to braze any new technologies at all ever into the MMO space, but it's not so crazy to expect that your character should be able to play 24/7 without regard to specific "servers."
  7. Some people would just like to kiss-butt by saying the devs obviously know what they're doing. It doesn't even matter when you have unscheduled downtime for twice as long as scheduled downtime, or patches so bad you could read the "Fall of the Roman Empire" while you wait for a 25 MB download to install. They're totally convinced the dev team is solid.
  8. You'll note the 4 hours of unscheduled downtime for West Coast servers, hopefully, and consider that in your future decisions on downtime. Frankly, between the hour+ Reorganizing data patch and multiple unscheduled patches I won't re-sub without some compensation. This is a bit much as far as downtime even for an MMO.
  9. Put in a ticket to complain about that... during the downtime!
  10. 30 minute downtime turns to 4 hours so easily.
  11. I really don't usually complain, but in the past week or so my sub time has been wasted with an hour and a half of a minor patch "Reorganizing Data", scheduled maintenance, a couple of unscheduled maintenance times, and an hour on the phone with Eastern Europe to clear up a double charge. I don't see why the West Coast is being singled out like this - you'd think it'd be the same code. And if it's a hardware issue, that should be entirely on you.
  12. It won't happen, but I'm similarly extremely annoyed. I've had horrible timing trying to play around the patch, and the scheduled and unscheduled downtime.
  13. What patience? Is it bad I'd be less annoyed if the other servers were affected too?
  14. I don't know. As long as we have the sort of interfaces we use now (as opposed to say kinetic movement interfaces), I'm not a fan of MMOs with dumbed-down rotations.
  15. The Agent storyline is impossible to beat.
