			No word in the server status forums .. just got announcement in game?	
----
			its a patch to patch the patch that patched the patch.	
----
			Honestly this reminds me of playing on private servers.	
----
			
We're having some issues with crashes on both NA and EU servers at the moment. :) Coming down to fix that.

Do you really have to ask at this point?  :rolleyes:
 
Just resign yourself to this. After every patch.	
----
			
Yeah, they messed something else up I have to guess...
 
hard to pay when most maint periods end in shame.	
----
			OK thanks.	
----
			
Interesting I was fine on Mikros ... in Farsider zone.  Didn't have any lag or dc's. 'Course I was the only one there. ;)
 
Quick fix or like last week for an indeterminate time which actually lasted twice as long as it took to patch?
 
Update: Ok Twitter Ops says ETA of unknown duration.	
----
			2 words: "Butterfly Effect"!	
----
			
We don't have an ETA at this time, my apologies =(

This is obviously the maintenance to fix SS's, Nanofield, Medic dps, rng runes, pvp balance, and 10,000 other things we're hoping to get in the next decade.
 
Obviously...	
----
			Well instead of playing for 4 hours until class, im going to guess that the maint will take longer than an hour so im going to bed, great first day starting off with this game wildstar, while you are at it, merge some realms, if i wanted to play with myself i wouldnt spent $60 + $15 a month to do it, it would be free because... well you get my drift.

			They Fixing back into the fray finally i heard!!!!	
----
			I think the game has been down, more than playable during my first months subscription of $15.00. Are we being reimbursed for lost time?	
----
			The Hamsters had a heart attack because Carbine fed the Hamsters too much Cubacon to keep their servers powered!

That's why they schedule these for 3:00am Tuesday morning.  Perhaps you could get some *cupcake*ing sleep.

What about us early birds who just woke up from a full night's sleep a few hours ago?  :P

In this case, you have not played long enough.

			This seems to happen to Carbine a lotttttt.

All merging the servers will do is inflate the prices of mats us newbies need, I'd like to take advantage of cheap mats while I can...
----
			I just hope they don't expect me to pay for this type of service for another month	
----
			
how long are these hick-ups usually expected to last?
i'm new -.-
 
should I go to bed or grab an energy drink and wait it out :P	
----
			Go to bed.  Last week when this happened ... it took twice as long as the initial maintenance to fix.	
----
			Yeah supply and demand practices would come into play, Higher pop means Higher supply and less demand, and a lower pop would mean less supply and higher demand, or something similar to, i just want to be able to finish quests that require 2+ people without levelling past them and going back to em. 1-15 on 2 toons and literally had nobody answer any of my /z messages, ill live though :D	
----
			Two hours of casual maintenance (wich is way too long for this low populated game) already become 4 hours :\

Do you also switch electricity provider every year if a breakdown happens somewhere on the net?
Do you buy a new car every year because it needs maintenance?
Or maybe you switch ISP every week when a DNS on the Internet does not work as it should?
Or do you switch stores because they didn't have a specific brand in stock?
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
If any of those things happened pretty much every week: Yeah, yeah I think I might just end up doing that!
----
			
CHUA! hey my litty furry friend, responding to your things? I wouldnt buy a new car mostly because if my car is already new then i would have it fixed, for free, and a rental would be provided. So that doesnt necessarily work.
 
Also, if i liked a particular brand of items and a store no longer carried it, then yes, i would find a new store, im picky :D	
----
			any post anywere on when they assume the fix of the fix is finally fixed?	
----
			I just checked the game update forums removed todays update post.  I wanted to check if there was anything server intensive in the minimal "fixes" I don't recall anything.  Just minimal bug fixes ... odd that this should cause server instability.  Given that this happened last week ... I will be tracking this ... if it continues I suspect bigger problems, 'cause what "was posted" ( now removed ) was minimal (2 hours for practically nothing and rewarded with server instability). *boggle.*

You sure about that? Because I got characters on a medium and a low pop server, and everything is more expensive on the low one.

If city brown out every week, Chua move
If game came with warranty like car, Chua happy. If no, Chua lemon law.
If internet goes down, Chua lose business, Chua switch ISP
Chua shop mall, Chua go many stores.
 
(you have to reply like this for him to understand.)

Do you also switch electricity provider every year if a breakdown happens somewhere on the net?
No, every-year i re-evaluate the service i'm getting and if i can get better service/enjoyment from another service provider, if the answer is yes i swap
 
Do you buy a new car every year because it needs maintenance?
No i swap my car every 2 years as per company policy
 
Or maybe you switch ISP every week when a DNS on the Internet does not work as it should?
That argument just shows your complete lack or total ignorance of the internet, as such it does not require even as much of a reply as i have provided 
 
Or do you switch stores because they didn't have a specific brand in stock?
Of course, wouldn't you	
----
			
it's brand new , I have good hopes.
it's definatly a lot of fun when it's up!

We're currently in the process of reverting the hotfix. No player data has been lost, we're just rolling back the hotfix itself. 
 
Again no ETA, and thank you so much for your patience.

Not sure if being snappy.....
If you really do that.......I pity, since those problems are not in their control......
maybe the last one is.

Feeding the fanbois in forums is always a fruitless task, and will only result is severe depression, possible bad eyesight, and occasionally broken keyboards & hardware :rolleyes:

			Chillia ... you can prolly lock this now.  Thanks for the update.	
----
			
OP got their answer, and updates where available so I am locking this thread for now (at their request).
