maintenance, why so much

Somewhere at Bio ware is an anal retentive manager who is screaming at his employees, Get that game fixed right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jeez...you guys never stop do you? When they arent fixing things you complain, when they are trying to fix things you complain! Just stop playing the game if it bugs you that freakin much that you go all nerdrage and mental when they have a downtime! Seams too me all of you complainers need some downtime from online game tbh.

I like how when you don't mind some downtime because you have something to do outside of the game your a " fanboy" but when you stick around with a company you seem to hate and deal with problems you seem to hate and go through hell and fire and hate it yet still play your not a " fanboy" seems the fanboy would endure all the horrors of hell to play while a casual player would have just left by now .
PLS tell me what is this " Fanboy" ? I see it alot but it makes no sence coming from people who by all they say , shouldn't still be here

how childish it is to complain about other peoples misfortunes...but i guess that is what it is like to be 12

This, 1000 times this. No one would be crying about downtime if it happened at 5 AM their time.

Because that test realm does fix 80% of the bugs. But software development is a tricky thing. You can respond all you want to 10k people in a controlled environment, but when you put it live to 100's of thousands a million more variables come into play.

Trust me if that PTR wasn't there you'd be seeing 20k more bugs than you do now. It all takes patience.

no one would even know about downtime, if that was the case

it really couldnt wait til monday?

As an Oceanic Player, with how much maintainance tehre has been going on, I'm paying for a subscription to a product that is not available during peak periods.

The amount of downtime may very well be necessary in terms of the latest patch, but thus far this week I have only received 2 out of the 4 days of playable peak subscription that I have paid for.

Schedule Oceanic maintainance during non-peak periods. Poor management imo.

I see no incentive to make the move from WoW permanent if the product is going to be unavailable during peak periods, regardless of whetehr there is a patch or not.

I've seen just as many American's ranting about exactly the same thing
