Not all of us sit at home all day and can play like that, i work have a family & other commitments, seems like every time i jump on to play servers are down AGAIN.

Just infuriating, can BW get nothing right

Please change your major patch night from Thursday so the Oceanic timezone don't also lose Friday night primetime as well with Emergency patches. Patching content on a Tuesday so we lose the occassional Wednesday I can live with.

I understand things need to get fixed but this is just unacceptable.
The other 20 hours it will be up.

Oh, would you rather play in a voidstar match that is completely broken and runs off mystery-timers?

Or do you not want to recieve credits for completing battlegrounds?




They just dropped a major patch, there are kinks. This has happened after every major patch in the last 10 years of MMOs.
You thought your game would get better. That you were....PROTECTED.That you would get ranked PVP...and your broken game will LIVE.
You. Were. DECEIVED.

so...every second day...

so there has been maintenance jan 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 24

then in feb 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th... etc?

I think you are blowing it way out of proportion. Maintenance really hasn't been that harsh..and for a game this size with this much content, you have to understand. Things NEED to be patched.

If we were paying for a game that we couldn't play. You wouldn't be able to play it 98 percent of the time. Because servers are up according to numerous sites 98 to 99 percent of the time overall.

Of course its not every second day on the calendar but thats the way it feels due to alot of players probably not able to play every day either so when it does come to weekends and the odd occasional night, especially for us Aussie players it destroys our primetime

First post here as I'm a newb. . . so hello to all

Now how many thought about the day and date?

I am in no way superstitious, but I think it's funny how people get worked up over numbers.
Thought I would through that bit o info in and see where this thread goes now. . . cheers!

I am terribly upset that this patch time is eating into my free 30 days. I will totally cancel my pre-order over this terrible injustice. I'll kick my Orokeet as well.

Way to jump to conclusions.
I'm normally not one to complain about things like this.. But it does seem quite often, and the downtime is usually particularly long.
