Well, we’ve been ready to post this for a few hours now and have just been waiting for the Update Notes. But the servers just went down and there are still no notes. From the EQ2 Forums:
All U.S. servers will come down for a hotfix at 7am PST on Tuesday, November 29, 2011. The expected downtime is two hours.
From Isulith on the EQ2 Forums:
I am terribly sorry that someone did not post the patch notes.
Just to explain a bit, since this has come up in the past – someone on the development side usually posts the patch notes and I post the downtime notification for players. That is why they are separated. I will check with them and see what the patch notes were and get some info posted for everyone.
An update from Bunji:
There were no player facing changes with this downtime which is why no patch notes were listed. The downtime was for some database maintenance. I can put up patch notes that mention this in the future to prevent confusion.
That would mean someone at SoE would have to work
So typical in their lack of communication. Any word on what information was given during podcast?
Continued fail from SOE. Any word on info from podcast?
ho maybe they are finally going to fix the exploit i have found and reported that gives you an infinite number of legendary and fabled t7 items in a few hours… ho wait no that’s 1 month ago and it’s not fixed yet…
Sometimes treasured is just as good
Haha so pretty much she said ‘it aint my fault yo”, “someone else fudged it up”
Hint Hint SoE Hire a new crew From president to Hamster. Rebuilt your staff.
Lack of ownership on the simple things leads to all the messes we have.
What’s scariest is that someone felt the need to shift blame publicly
There were no player facing changes with this downtime which is why no patch notes were listed.
Riiiiiight. Gentlemen, start your engines…
I did not think you all needed patch notes, rofl. I like the idea of posting nothing changed, at least on the side of my pc.
You’ll have to excuse me, too many ‘undocumented changes’ have led to a certain level of cynicism on the matter. Nothing personal, you understand…
It’s not just patch notes where communication is poor. For those of us on Splitpaw, sometimes no notification is posted at all about downtime. That’s happened a couple of times. Today it was posted but only 2 and a half hours before the downtime.
TMZ eq2 just Discovered this was an inside get back at Bunndi From isulith!
for months of forum back talk- our reporter also said that it may have been an office romance gone Wrong. Gnome and Arasai’s are a bad mix.
