Ah i see, was reading it wrong, I suppose i was thinking of when 2.0 was released at: Time: April 13th, 10:30PM PDT (April 14th, 5:30AM GMT ) - April 14th, 12:30AM PDT (7:30AM GMT) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isaacone Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Why have the patch early December 2. If I remember correctly when rothc and 2.0 came out the big patch was a couple days earlier and the changes didn't go into effect until the day of launch. And I believe it had a smaller patch on launch day as well. It's not a big deal really seeing as I have things to do in the morning anyway and can patch it during that time. Its just knowing that this will be a big patch and how bitraider takes its sweet time to install even the smallest patches. And lastly those of us who preordered before November 2 want to jump right on into the action as soon as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastersdr Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Can we still patch while the servers are down or do we have to wait until they are back up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKtheindomitable Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Can we still patch while the servers are down or do we have to wait until they are back up? Answer: You should be able to start as soon as the servers go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nothematic Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Not sure why you guys didn't choose to launch on a Friday. Releasing on a Tuesday when everyone is at work/school? Seems a bit like you guys don't want to make a deal out of the expansion when you should be screaming it from the rooftops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerba Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Oh well, there goes our hope of getting 3.0 before the weekly reset like it was during 2.0... I wasn't expecting this late of a maintenance, we'll need to prepare for a long night in Europe that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaos Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Query: What about it? There was talk about keeping it or not for those after the launch of 3.0, through Legacy benefits or something. I want to say I read something somewhere from a dev stating that they were thinking about it, but to be honest, I've slept a lot since I read that post, if I read it.

HKtheindomitable Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 There was talk about keeping it or not for those after the launch of 3.0, through Legacy benefits or something. I want to say I read something somewhere from a dev stating that they were thinking about it, but to be honest, I've slept a lot since I read that post, if I read it. Clarification: What the master was most likely referring to was what they will do the next time they decide to do a big leveling boost like the 12x XP. That I did read for sure. But the current 12x isn't going to continue. Quote: The FAQ about the 12x XP reads as follows: "The Class Experience Boost is immediately effective for all players with an active subscription status and who have also pre-ordered the Shadow of Revan Digital Expansion during the pre-order period ending December 1, 2014, at 11:59PM PST / December 2, 2014, at 7:59AM GMT." Admission: If the master does for whatever reason, then I'm wrong and they should change it on the FAQ immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
