Maintenance

Just lost fleet arena on one account due to the server downtime. So much for 30 mins ?

Way to go CG doing maintenance when half of the US playerbase has their arena payout.

What do you mean half the US playerbase? That's not even close to correct. I'm on the east coast and payout isn't for another 2 hours. West coast don't have their payouts for another 5 hours.

I'm at work. went to lunch and it was on maintenance and now its after 3

It’s been 50 minutes now, that’s 20 more then roughly 30, if it gets to a hour soon people will start demanding compensation.

@ChristophIV , I think he means the one period between extra energies and his particular guild’s time zone of guild-event scheduling, so he’ll be able to claim the energy, but not get credit for using it during the “Spend Energy” activity for additional guild currency rewards.

Something probably went wrong.
Usually you tell more downtime then actually needed. ;)

What?

Payout should be 6pm local. We're still 55 min away from 6pm EST and maintenance has been going on for 50 min. They do their best and thought they could get it done in roughly 30min. They didn't, but you're almost certainly still going to have time to do 3+ arena fights even on EST. For CST, MST, and PST there's no effect at all.

Sure but I shouldn't have to.

You beat me to it. I was gonna say the same.

I'm getting a panic attack because I can't stare at the cantina screen and watch my energy refresh

the timing of this maintenance to me shows that the gaming experience comes secondary to the business process of making money. not much lately has been considerate of the player base.

doing this during an active tw day is just wrong in my opinion but ea/cg never disappoints when it comes to making bad decisions

Could be a third party doing the maintenance and they set this time and date.
