I get the distinct feeling Bioware's idea of communication will involve telling their customers as little as possible, only what they want them to know, and doing it via vague answers to the same questions in countless "interviews" with third party sites, whilst steering clear of approaching the subjects that the community feels need answering.

If they try to stick to a "we'll only tell you about something when we feel it's ready" philosophy, then it may bite them in the proverbial ***. Other MMO's tried that, and it pissed the community off.

People need re-assurance or there's a good chance they'll cancel. It's that simple.
Supporter of having the following in the game:
Full Control Space Combat, More Playable Species (not unlockable),
Swimming, Sitting In Chairs, Planetary Day / Night Cycles and other MMORPG elements
MMO's are not meant to be films, and neither should they be movie-studio set tours

No news, although pretty much everyone will be back at work at BioWare today. I doubt they are totally ignoring this thread, it will spark some kind of discussion, it's just whether they actually give a stuff enough to do something about it. I'm sure Stephen Reid and Chris Collins have had a few tweets on the matter, plus we are on the second incarnation of this thread. You would think they would have to raise the issue with somebody.
Space, is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly hugely mindbogglingly big it is. I mean you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist, but that's just peanuts to space...

Stop crying like a child.
You have no idea what's behind a mantenance schedule like the one they will do tomorrow. It's very likely they need to make it all in the same time to avoid issue we have no idea.

Also normal ppl during the afternoon study \ work, if u have nothing to do, just go out few hours, take a fresh breath of air, come back and u will find server online ready to let u play the game.

Probably. But they will definitely have seen this thread and it will be mentioned at some point in conversation, but as I've said, it just depends on whether they are interested enough to do something about it.

Well if you have no idea, why comment at all?

If BioWare actually spoke to us and said that it's impossible to do separate maintenance, that would at least be a start. Besides, even if it IS impossible, it's not impossible to move the time slot back 4 hours, which is a compromise many here have said they will accept if necessary.
