    Bah.

    Who would've guessed. :)

    "While monitoring the progress of the patch deployment, a database issue came to light that we felt was important to address as quickly as possible. In order to ensure the best quality patch possible for our players, the estimated time for the downtime has been potentially extended as we correct that issue. Restoration of service could happen as late as tomorrow afternoon but may be as soon as this evening."


    [15:43:38] <%[BH]Kharnubis|AFK> We admit it..we're keeping the TQ server down on purpose to upset people
    [15:43:53] <+Blazde> I knew it
    [15:44:22] <%[BH]Kharnubis|AFK> Sometimes you just need to say these things outloud to make people realise how stupid it sounds :P

    Yeah, I just saw... and I forgot to switch skills late last night to one that would cover more than 24 hours.  Although, losing 10-20 hours is pretty insignificant in the greater scheme of being a player since '04.

    Has the extension to the extended downtime been extended yet, and do we expect another extension to that extension? :D

  • dazedfinchdazedfinch Member Posts: 21

    -_- I forgot to wake up early this morning and switch my skills... No skill progression for me during the duration of the DT, bleh.

  • AximusAximus Member Posts: 19

    Yeah... not thinking that the 14 hour patch time would be extended, I too will be out some training time. If they extend to tomorrow afternoon... could be damn near 24 hours of no skill training. Being a newb, I probably should have planned for a longer one... guess I will learn for the next extended maintenance.

    They said the latest is tomorrow, it could be this evening or later tonight. They are obliged because even if they think there is only a small chance of being delayed till tomorrow they would want to cover themselves in case the worst happened.

    yeah CCP is pretty good with those type of things... they actually got Trinity deployed ahead of time, however they also had that not so tiny issue with the boot.ini...

    LOL yea thatone was a disaster, I was glad i decided not even to bother to log that day, boot.ini was fixed when i loged, but warning still up

    seems like CCP encounter problems and hickups every patch, one just has to be patient

    Thats right, I forgot about that little whoops with the ini file.

    Tell you what, how about you go first?

    For some reason I had a bad feeling about this patch last night when the servers went down (at 10:00 pm EST btw) so I switched on a couple of week long training skills for both of my characters.

    Been burned before, but not this time.

     

    Who the hell are you, and why should I care?
    Congrats! You are a victim of Trollstar!

    This time they will delete boot.ini, and replace it with start.ini.


    C:oot.ini will be replaced, of course, for the sake of consistancy.

    everyone seems to be talking about a possibility of DT extended to tomorrow lunch, where did you hear this?  I cant see anything on message of day and the forums are down.

    There was a short period of time the default message you see HERE also had an additional comment about projected times.  That has been removed in the last hour or two.

  • mercadermercader Member Posts: 81

    Note, he said Carrier, not BS....you might have 57 more days on top of BS 5 right?

    BTW, 1 billion for implants? What type? Full set of +5 learnings are 1/2 that.

    Oh yeah, and if your mate needs more friends, I can be easily bought for a billion isk.
