falcon_Xtreme Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) Stop taking servers down several times a week. its friday evening here in australia. its been a long week, I play to relax and because i enjoy it. I have two accounts, i have 250+ days game credit on this account , and 100 days game cred on the other. . i love this game, its fun. but man is it frustrating when you bring down servers at hours when I (and many others) get to play. My money is just as good as the American consumers (actualy its better,costs me less to play) . stop uploading flawed content. stop patching after you have "fixed" things. if your going to do maintaince weekly. DO IT WEEKLY, dont make content live if its terrible and needs to be fixed several times. I last night downloaded the public test server client , and im going to contribute so I can help stop this garbage interference several times a week. its bad business. I dont even get to qq about the game, BECAUSE I CANT even play the darn thing. its not rocket science. think about it.

Stop complaining. /thread I just went upstairs and grabbed my iPod to use my security key and then found out that servers were down when I was ready and wanting to play. But life goes on, go do something else for the next few hours. Watch a movie, take a nap, play a couple matches of LoL.

Rogoo Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) They need to bring the servers down for us paying customers, so that the people that didn't pay for the game can play it over the next weekend. I was just about to finally get a ship on my alt and bam! Server maintainance! o/\o Edited March 23, 2012 by Rogoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yeechester Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 ignorance must be bliss in Australia. ... actually it must be bliss anywhere you live... the servers go down all around the world.. not just where you live... plus why the hell are you complaining man... those developers.. who get paid the money from our subscriptions are up till 5-6 am (US time) doing the patches to improve upon the game.... fyi.. the game has been out for how many months now? get over it.. do what the others suggested... sleep,, movie.... go see some bloody sun shine.. some of these nerds we encounter need to get a bloody life.

RobNightfall Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Wow, really? You're whining about maintenance and attempts to fix things? That's seriously pathetic. They're actually working on fixing the game and you're whining about it. One of the few things they do right and you're upset. Grow up dude.

Wait a minute, let me get this straight. You are telling somebody in Australia that he should be thankful somebody stays up late in America to do their job, when in fact if that American did his job in normal American office hours it would suit the Australian better?

evilsnoofy Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I can cope with the server downtime in Australian prime time - although very annoying when I'd been looking forward ALL week to coming home and being able to relax and play SWTOR until late and not have to get up for work the next day! What annoys me is the description as "scheduled" maintenance. This is UNSCHEDULED. "Scheduled" would imply some sort of advance notice to customers.

yeechester Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 ok how about i word what i said a little differently.... how many Americans/Canadians are there... how many Australasians are there? ... where is the money coming from? thats quite funny actually... prox 22m aus, 34m can, 311us.... ya stop complaining..

What are you talking about, then american players wouldn't get to play at times convenient to them. lololol But seriously, I agree with you. I'd prefer if they varied the time so sometimes it was when I was asleep or at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know why patches are done. I question the logic of taking servers down during prime playing time of a certain group of consumers (when a more appropriate time could have been worked out). I work full time I have a family, and do many other things. if I wish to invest some time into a product thats constantly not there in hours when it should be, why dont I have a right to be annoyed? Im paying for it. Edited March 23, 2012 by falcon_Xtreme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obea Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 The scheduled maint is usually on a Tuesday - and clicking on the 'patch notes' redirects one to the post from Tuesday 3/20...not tonight. I don't have a problem with a schedule, but this UNscheduled patch is an annoyance. I just hope its back up earlier than projected.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmileyD Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 1.1.5c Patch Notes 3/20/2012 General Made further adjustments to prevent incorrect access for Weekend Pass players. 1.1.5b Patch Notes 3/15/2012.

My money is just as good as the American consumers (actualy its better,costs me less to play) . stop uploading flawed content. stop patching after you have "fixed" things. if your going to do maintaince weekly. DO IT WEEKLY, dont make content live if its terrible and needs to be fixed several times. I last night downloaded the public test server client , and im going to contribute so I can help stop this garbage interference several times a week. its bad business. I dont even get to qq about the game, BECAUSE I CANT even play the darn thing. its not rocket science. think about it. You obviously never played WoW when it first came out. Servers went down for days at a time with absolutely no warning at all and even less of an explanation as to why afterwards. You have no idea how good you got it with this game, man.

mrchips Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 i just have to add this topic is rediculous. most of us work full time, most take care of our family and we are all paying customers, id rather see the server go down for maintence than it never go down, its SCHEDULED, work with it . now i shall go sit and eat my popcorn as the flames build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
