this is a point where GOA could be making amends, by stating what is happening. instead it is an hour longer than they advuised and nobody knows what the dwarfs beard is going on

Servers went down - question is will they stand the stress testing of coming back up again - hehe

It's still a beta tbh and it's not uncommon for most live games not to patch on-time.

You really want them giving you hourly updates? Naaah, thats asking a bit too much imo unless if there is a major problem requiring a significant amount of extra offline time (say, 4-5+ hours maybe?) ;)

Ah - so only an hour to go then before we get to scream at them :) servers went down 3pm France time - 2pm UK time so that makes it nearly 3 hours now

Well I've patched but...

Now getting a big delay at patch screen, followed by log in failed verify log in credentials blah some kind of authentication error.. Thought we done away with all that nonsense earlier this week..

I'm getting the same. I guess they'll sort it in time. It is the first proper patch since OB. So I suppose it is a bit of a learning process for them.

hopefully GOA dont have the same bug mythic do, theres a big thread on WHA about the problems loads of US people are having

No i doubt GOA would add a patch that is going to fail as someone else has already used it and found an error with it....... oh :(

They flashed a warning in the chat text to say the servers were coming down. But then nothing. It would be good if they put a countdown on the screen like in WoW.

some of the americans were saying they had to change there password for it to work, i dont think we have that option?

anyway i'd give it awhile before you start worrying the server seems pretty lagged

rofl... btw cant even login now...
Yeah, hopefully it's then doing some server stability fixes or something. TBH i'd rather they had the problems now so we avoid it for the CE headstart launch, but it's still annoying that GOA still seem incapable of updating the people who pay their salary. I'm thinking MJ from Mythic needs to have another word and explain to GOA that customer service is the most important aspect in providing a gaming service for your customers.

Is it really that hard to wait until GOA announce the servers are back up on war-europe before we all complain we can't login?

"GOA: Our servers are offline"
"Customer: OMG, I can't login - GOA suck".

Yes they estimated an hour and it is obviously past that hour, but that doesnt validate complaining about not logging in...

in my defence i have only complained that they haven't given us an eta beyind the previous eta they gave. I understand that patches go wrong, i have been playing online games since the early muds. It i sjust nice to know thet there is an issue and they think it will take 2 hours to sort rather than just let us sit here thinking it could be up any minute

They're patching guys, have a little patience. Yeah its past their estimate, but bare in mind this is probably the last patch before the servers are set for launch so they need to make sure everything is running smooth. But I agree though, if they foresee it being late there should be news up here saying so like they do in the US. Whilst we're not paying customers (yet) that doesn't excuse poor customer service.

It´s a BETA...... the keyword of the day is..... "BETA"
its nice to se them actually making changes and patches and fixing the bugs so if that takes some time of ur free time in the game then so be it. rather wait now at a beta stage than to sit here at launch wondering why the servers are down just because some patch.
:cheers:

Im thinking there maybe an issue here. I can authenticate the EULA but I dont get booted like you do. I can see the server list which is all greyed out but thats it no boot out
