Patch day is no fun

WordaenWordaen Member Posts: 203
So, this is the first time I have tried to log in before 6:30pm pst on a patch day. My question is this. Are there always issues with realms not displaying, the website working sporadically and disconnects on patch day? I want to make sure it isn't something I am doing mainly.

     Geez, why are the servers still not up? This is unusual.
  • WordaenWordaen Member Posts: 203

    I can log in as well but don't see any servers, but I just know I'll get the queue when the servers do come live...Oh I also still keep getting the downloader saying that I'm behind a firewall even though my window xp firewall is turned off. Though I still got the patch to download.

    They said on the forums that it's delayed later than they thought.

    I really hate WoW tuesday server maintenance, I really dont think they need to spend half the day working on servers.. But hey what do I know about servers image

  • WordaenWordaen Member Posts: 203

    Just tried to check the realm status page as well, the wow site doesn't even come up. Must be tied to their network issues.

     

    edit - nm, just slow. Pay me no mind, just venting a little :)

    I would find it highly unlikely their web servers are on the same pipe as their game servers.  Most likely it's just getting hammered because people can't log into the game.

    Actually their world server is on the same server as the website, and both were/are down.

    Todays patch did alot of things. I read some of the message, not all of it because I was too anxoius to play. Updates on high level armor, certain changes to tradeskills and flight paths. Changes on some high level instances and my favorite, weather added! Only to certain zones but they mentioned they will add more to others as time passes. The servers are probably taking time to settle all these changes. But then again I don't know much about how servers work either. Also consider the ammount of servers they have. I think I remember when I started they had 40 servers. I know its alot more now though.

    In the near future:

    Dear customers,

    We regret to inform you that we accidentally deleted all your characters and items. In the process we maxed out your credit cards and deleted the servers.

    Thank you for your continued patience. We hope to have this issue resolved sometime.

    lol... tool is teh rool?

    hypocrite.


    blizzard makes 95 million + a month, not considering the 50 bucks they made for each sale of the game.

    they didnt hire enough new support staff.

    instead they stopped making new content and put everyone on server duty.

    ie where the fuck did hero classes go?


    maybe the man who cannot spell is far wiser than you are ;)

    If I remember they were mucking about with some new server setup which was supposed to alleviate some of the lag, and login issues. They also changed some of the network code, if I remember the post correctly.

    In all likelyhood, this is what is causing the delay.

    I'm certain that Blizzard will pony up the cash to provide the entire playerbase with their own personal psychiatrist to help them overcome this very traumatic ordeal.
