TaitWatson Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) Hey everyone! I wanted to let you all know that we will be having two separate maintenance periods this week: one on Tuesday, October 14th, and one on Wednesday, October 15th. Tuesday, October 14th Duration: 1.5 hours Time: 7AM PDT (2PM GMT) - 830AM PDT (330PM GMT) This downtime will only affect SWTOR.com. Game servers will not be impacted. Wednesday, October 15th Duration: 4 hours Time: 3AM PDT (10AM GMT) - 7AM PDT (2PM GMT) This downtime will include an update to the Launcher and the Game Client. Game servers will be unavailable for the duration of the maintenance. Formal Patch Notes will be posted during the downtime. Thank you for your patience! -Tait Edited October 13, 2014 by TaitWatson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PavSalco Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) Oh please, say that you are going to fix the infinite loading screen that occurs every time a player gets disconnection. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=755289 It's been like that for 3 months and it discourages people from playing swtor. I personally don't get a lot of disconnections but it's frustrating for others when they have to restart the game every couple of minutes instead of simply reconnecting. I believe you care deeply about the amount of people playing the game, but things like that aren't helping to maintain their number.

TravelersWay Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Is this update for 2.10.2, and will Eric give us a heads up as he mentioned about the slot machine being available on the vendor for 1 credit as he said it will be and would?

Tatile Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Is this update for 2.10.2, and will Eric give us a heads up as he mentioned about the slot machine being available on the vendor for 1 credit as he said it will be and would? I thought I'd missed that! I've been so confused. I was also confused by the dates and then I remembered they do it wrong on that side of the pond... Also would it kill you to use a 24-hour clock?

Banegio Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 (edited) Couple of questions Since game launch players have a general understanding that Tuesday is the regular maintenance day. Base on that expectation, guilds/groups tend to schedule raids/activities between Wednesday to Monday. Over the years, there have been numerous downtimes happened on Wednesday (some urgent patches, some "scheduled"), and it seems to happen more often on Wednesdays in recent months. Should players adjust their expectations and avoid scheduling activities on Wednesday? Previously we were told that "scheduled maintenance" would be communicated to the players by Friday the week before. Has that changed? Bare in mind that Wednesday is popular due to it being the first day after weekly reset. And there are some less-hardcore guilds/groups who only schedule activity for one night a week.

primetheous Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 does this mean the seneschal's pack will not be available until Wednesday now ? I received an e-mail stating it was due on the 14th so just wondering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth_Wicked Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Plenty of us received a mail last week stating the pack would be released today, October 14th. No reason to think otherwise, seeing packs don't require a patch to go online in the CM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idnewton Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Super secret sketchy and unexplained maintenance with invisible patch notes incoming. I sense a conspiracy afoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leene Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Oh wow, thank you for adjusting server downtimes to my schedule! (I know, I know, it probably will be back to Tuesday downtime next week; still glad I can play this Tuesday though.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
znihilist Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Super secret sketchy and unexplained maintenance with invisible patch notes incoming. I sense a conspiracy afoot. it is a patch to the launcher and the game client, not the game itself. Most likely to patch some vulnerability with the game client or to deliver some optimizations.

Thank you for your patience! -Tait :mad: So, let me get this straight. you're doing website maintenance when normal maintenance should be on and with no game downtime. Then, you do actual maintenance the following day.....are you f*****g serious. The amount of primetime loss for APAC players lately is a bloody joke. Tuesday is your maintenance day....you guys are making it so hard for us to organize our raids...we may as well just give up on doing wednesday nights ... just when we were getting some faith back in you guys after getting a glimpse of whats to come in 3.0.

Jacobise Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Hey Tait, does this maintenance change mean that the Seneschal pack will be released Wednesday rather than today? Just curious since we all got the email to hype it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revcrisis Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 (edited) Will the 10/14 site maintenance fix the SWTOR.com buggy ranked PVP leaderboards? For instance, sorting by server causes the leaderboards to complete break and not display any up-to-date ratings. Honestly, sorting by ANYTHING on the leaderboards causes it to not work or display the correct ratings. It's quite apparent the site code is broken there.

Icestar Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 (edited) No, the pack will still release as scheduled! Please check if the Revan statue that is supposed to be in this pack actually is there. Hundreds of packs has been opened and nobody has seen one Either it has a very disappointing droprate or it is actually not there at all Edit: Seems like one player has found one so it is there, sad that it has such a low droprate.
