Whining again? Really?
"I just hit 50 and finished my class storyline, but I still haven't been able to decide which AC to choose. Leveling solo as a warrior wasn't difficult, so I kept putting off the decision.
Anyone else having the same problem? "~ lagerhat - And who says warriors are broke?

Ok, I'm really lol'ing now! Just read all the OP's posts in a row and WOW! This is hilarious! For someone who condemns QQers and then goes and QQs himself, and equates this game to NBA Season Tickets...


All I can do is /facepalm, Baras style.

I wanted to post here cause it's a silly QQ.

always someone has to complain about stuff that doesn't matter.

yes, this doesn't matter, why? cause it's a game, that will be back up after they finish.

so.... do something else... seriously, quit the simple QQ, go to a movie, sleep, eat, poop, whatever... the game will be back up and running and all will be fine in the world.

now... less QQ... more pew pew.

Thank you for posting something that deserves a legit QQ response.

Is doing the 1.2 patch and weekly maintenance at the same time difficult? Don't see why they need to be different nights. It could have waited a few more days and done on Tuesday. Or 1.2 that much of make or break for this game that it needs to be now or else the world will end?

Also i'm pretty sure patch deployment is considered maintenance.

They set an established downtime window, they should live by it.

I'm an engineer. I deal, in precision. Precision measurements, precision estimates, precision in schedules and delivery dates.

I expect those that I do business with, to do the same.

Consider for example: Season tickets to the <INSERT NBA TEAM HERE>

You buy those tickets, with the expectation to gain entrance to the game, upon turning the ticket over at the gate.

If the team decides to suddenly change it's starting times to 3 in the morning, when you can't show up, you'd be a little peeved, wouldn't you? In fact, if suddenly, you had no use for those tickets because of the time change, you'd likely demand a refund from the front office, would you not?

Dude seriously? This is not a normal Patch its a MAJOR update. I want them to update the servers and make absolutly sure it loads right. Everyone has been begging for this let them roll it out... MMOs always got down times you knew this when you signed up. If you didnt then perhaps your ignorance is no excuse..

Well lets mull this one over... maintenance is generally reactive adjustments to the game... hwereas a major update is actually adding more to the game.. depends on what side of the service team you sit I would say....

As for 1.2 being game breaking... I would say it has more chance of loosing more customers the longer people have to wait, especially as it was announced for this week rather than someone loosing an extra 2hrs of their personal primetime this Thursday (even tho they had an extra 4 hrs of play time on Tuesday cos the maintenace window was web only)

So nit pick all ya like but it looks like the vast majority of people speaking here actually get it and see no issue with it no matter where they live, cos they see the benefit they are getting....

If people choose to live their lives around an MMO, then sadly they have to learn to always expect ... THE UNEXPECTED
