Xbox 360 US is taking longer than expected. All other platforms are online!

Yay for the voice chat fixes.

So this is the reason I can't get into the game!

What voice chat is that. Not experienced any yet, Oh Yeah can't join up with my friends to talk to them in the first place. Sort that one out please.

no fix on timeout issues...... this patch would be useful if i could get into the game?!?

What platform are you on? I haven't experienced that issue yet.

cant get in

Thanks for the info Sledge.

Wow Guz you have issues and would like to say to read but yea Sledge just stated server were getting a patch which im glad they are working fast and not doing to weekly late night update other online game do. So fixing issues as they come up is fine with me

Some nice fixes going in later today. Hopefully can get some good playtime in after work.

Thanks for keeping us informed Sledge!! I appreciate it!!

Day 3 with another patch to improve the game. Keep it up good sirs!

I hope pvp d/c is part of - Multiple server crash fixes

any word on the multiple ego power bug Sledge?

Thanks sledge! Maybe a fix to the clan chat soon? Please? :)

This awesome game is getting better? Thanks again Defiance team and thanks Sledge for the updates. Guess this means it is time to take a break and actually eat huh? :confused:

That is what this is, they are forcing players to stop, breathe, evacuate our bowels, eat, and maybe even blink. They are so nice to us!

Will it fix the fact that i haven't been able to get past the load screen since yesterday?

I would just like a patch so I can get to play the game. Even let me see in game menus would be great. Better than server timed out all the time. Wouldn't even mind just messing with in game settings for god sake. At least I would be doing something instead of pressing start and start and start over and over again. Plz I just want to play :[

This is just for fun. I'm not flaming. I think TRION has done well handling the issues of this game on the console. Keep up the good work!

Still no fix for the Xbox 360 fps issues. Siiigh.

:P that one was stolen from me, though I did not put Critical Error.

Thanks for the great support Sledge, glad to see you guys are quickly pushing out patches for issues the community has raised :D

I've been at the main menu looping through the patch for almost 5 hours now on 360

- Improved loot in Major Arkfalls

Nice!

This will all end soon!! Are we losing our boosts though, during this downtime?

Server just went down for me. Anyone else?

Thank you the voice chat fixes!

Love the patches, but please stop patching during prime playing time its 6pm EST. Please patch at night.

Thank you for the quick, timely information.

every time I see critical error, I know I just lost everything I did for the last 3 hours.... :\

good news !

improved loot on arkfalls , so does this mean items can now drop from arkfalls and instances as rewards ? or am i clutching at straws?

Arkfal loot fix, woot!!

I'd prefer them patch asap especially with that improved major arkfall loot which will make doing those so much more worth it... I hope XD
