Last and most importantly, the game was built around a horrible horrible engine, which is why we're probably experiencing so many issues to begin with.

This game was only fun for the stories. The warzone pvp is decent, but not the best. I agree with the OP on this thread. I don't mind downtime, but we're not seeing any gains what so ever. The servers are still laggy, and game is running like crap. People say be patient for new content, but how long are we really suppose to wait? Bioware, as a company, is in shambles. Of course that is my opinion, but they've has major lay offs these last few months. Their investors are unhappy, and EA isn't helping at either. If you think Bioware has made such a great game, then why has the game lost so many subs?

Months for content is not long for mmo's. Some go years without any new content, including the beast of em all. Any that throw content out too soon end up being crap content anyway. I'd rather continue enjoying this game and getting alts to 50 like crazy so I'll always have many chars to play. Instead of just lvling one char, then burning through endgame and sitting around with my thumb up my arse. Now when each new content is released, i can quikly lvl all my toons to the new cap and burn through the endgames with a variety of playstyles.


This new generation has no patience whatsoever, it comes from getting everything these days instantly. But if you look at it from a quality stand point on our goods and services that we recieve nowadays, the quality has gone to shiz, and we have only ourselves to blame. Want me to paint your house? I can do it quikly but it's goona look like crap.....or slowly and give ya what you really want.
Jaltez - 50 ConSeer
Darko - 50 BountyTech
Stan'li - 50 SmugSlinger
Hookah - Be 50 in no time cause its way to easy to lvl in this game - ComMedic

That's like the worst argument ever. Hell, argument is too strong of a word for that presentation.

Just imagine if they took down your phone or internet 2-3 times per week? Would you be cool with that or do you put your agreements/contracts in relation to importance? How many of your phone calls are 911 calls? Zero? Well, then it won't be a problem. Do you ask for money back when you're not on the internet or are you paying for a service you can use when you wish to use it?

You mean that time period where maintenance takes place between like 9am-1pm for you guys? The time period where the MAJORITY of you SHOULD be either at work or in school? And for the summer vacation kids...go outside for a few hours...

The only people that really get screwed with maintenance is the Australians because the maintenance takes place at like 5pm for them.

This.

I am an EU player and I am not affected at all by the regular maintenance slots. I feel sorry for the Aussies and Kiwis though.

Why pay for the Sports Package on your TV and not the Animal Package?

Because some of us like Sports and not animals.
Who's my favorite Villain from the game?
Myself of course.

I'm pretty sure that a lot of people around the globe is affected and would be affected regardless of hour. The thing that sucks is that it, with the exception of one time, always starts at the same static hour. I'm in EU but work nights so it takes place every time I come home and just want to sit down and have my "evening". What els is there to do a weekday morning when everyone els is at work? And that's just my reason for wanting to play at that specific hour. Hence, some rotation would have been to prefer.

That said, it would have been funny as hell if all the "go do something els" sayers had it happening to them at 8 PM three times per week. To them I'd like to say "go do something els" while totally disregarding the fact that if you havent made plans for something by 8 PM on a weekday it's likely that there isnt that much els to do. I'm pretty sure they can solve that though since it's "not a big deal". Then when the weekend comes up and they actually have plans they can all look back on a week where they paid for something they only got to play two evenings. Rinse and repeat for next week.

what is the point of you trying to push this game to go F2P?

Oh its THIS thread again.

The servers go down so they can fix bugs (major update came out a little while ago and it sounds like you are new to mmos).

The devs have already stated and will not restate just for every thread in existence that once they answer a question, it is up to you to go on the dev tracker and look for it. That is the whole purpose of that feature.

In Aus/NZ, it's more like not going to the arcade for a day at all if you happen to work at least 8 hours a day.

That's unless you don't sleep or eat.
