Saaz Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 On April 8th at 6PM PDT (April 9th, 1AM GMT) all game servers, SWTOR.com, and the launcher will be unavailable as we perform scheduled maintenance. Game Update 2.0 will be implemented during this downtime. Details are as follows: Date: Monday April 8th- Tuesday April 9th Duration: 6 hours Time: April 8th, 6PM PDT (April 9th, 1AM GMT ) - April 9th, 12AM PDT (7AM GMT) Thank you for your patience as we maintain service for Star Wars™: The Old Republic™. Now - if I've got the time conversions right...that makes it: 5pm servers up tomorrow?!?! Don't tell me we'll be rocking 2.0 during peak time!!

Banegio Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 (edited) Vision from Dreadful Crystal Ball... UPDATE 8PM AEST : The maintenance window has been extended. Hello everyone! We are still working on the various items in today’s maintenance and wanted to give you a quick update. We are going to extend today’s maintenance window to ensure we have everything just right before we open the servers. We know you are all eager to return to the game and apologize to you for the interruption. At this time, we do not have an estimate as to when the servers will come back up, but we’ll keep you updated in this thread and will get them up and running as soon as we can. We apologize for the unexpected extension of today’s maintenance period, and thank you for your understanding. We understand that many of you are home for the 2.0 release, and that this maintenance extension interrupts your expected play time - especially for our players in APAC. In the future, we’ll be looking at ways to improve the timing of our maintenance periods, and we will definitely work to ensure that our maintenance estimates are as accurate as possible. Thank you all for your patience today. Edited April 8, 2013 by Banegio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you all for your patience today. Wait. So in this scenario, not only are they acknowledging it cuts into the APAC prime-time, but they're *also* saying they'll look into ways to make the maintenance windows less disruptive for a minority playerbase (which would probably result in cutting into North American prime-time). Bullsith, sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elegances Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 (edited) Go to the log files, grab the file urls and dl them with dl managers, much much quicker. Edited April 9, 2013 by Elegances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
