From EQ2 Senior Producer Holly “Windstalker” Longdale‘s twitter:
Almost to AoM expansion! Servers will come down about 5am and we are aiming to be live at 12pm pst. Purchasing up about the same time. #EQ2

Presumably this means we’ll be able to buy the Altar of Malice expansion around the same time servers come up, but possibly ambiguously sooner.
It’d sure be nice if they’d post this info on the official forums instead of just tweeting it…
Seriously, how difficult is it to follow through on this when they’ve gotten a ton of feedback from people who don’t tweet? Almost every one of my in-game friends rely on the forums first and foremost.
If it weren’t for Feldon, I wouldn’t have known how to plan my day tomorrow. :p
I wouldn’t plan on everything being up and running at Noon Pacific. There are just too many moving parts.
Like I said on the forums, it’s almost like they’ve never done this before. Seriously…..well, of course, unless you only expect like ten people buying or so.
I’m not buying it. That won’t matter though.
Anyone confirm if we can purchase at 5am or 12pm?
WTF SOE
I was hoping we could buy the xpac at midnight tonight pacific time. I just don’t understand what soe is trying to do this time
Grasping defeat from the jaws of victory.
I smell another sentinels fate Fiasco
The irony is I was told this was to prevent a repeat of sentinel’s fate. I doubt we’ll see a repeat of this release strategy.
Just let us buy it at 5 AM and let the downloading begin. Geez Louise
gotta have something to download on the servers 1st, I’d imagine :p
So, I’m going SOE live attendees are already flashed for the expac.
I just realized…I don’t think we ever used or item cards (for a backpack or something?) Hopefully expac flag still works. 🙂
Altar of Malice doesn’t appear on my EQ2 Entitlements page yet.
Anyone else see a serious problem with only a matter of hours between the end of Beta testing, and the beginning of Capa testing?
Kappa?
