Time: 8:10pm
Downtime: 30 minutes

Remember the time when you could actually login and play Defiance? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Yeah, it was like 20 minutes ago before the EMERGENCY that the EMERGENCY MAINTENANCE is for happened, and all week without any problems at all =)
thanks sledge for keeping us updated
How long will it be down for?
Emergency maintenance?
What does that mean?
just as I was about to log in. :(
Awesome game. People need to stop complaining. When you make an MMO with no problems then you have the right to complain.
I say the downtime is roughly between 30mins to an 1 hour.
My bet is 1 hour
Have they said how long this would take?
Woo it crashed my ps3
Yeah, you know what... THANK YOU Sledge for telling us. Those of us with common sense and a reasonable head on our shoulders would like you to know that we understand that an "Emergency Maintenance" means that its an emergency and such, an ETA can't be determined at this time.
haaaaaa this is what trion has told me today after waiting an hour for tech help and after talking to the tech for an hour... all this after spending 5 hours trying everything to get this game to run on my PC. So I have 7 hours logged into this game and not 1 minute of actual game playing time.
This is the end of our conversation.......
GM : Thank you for this information. This is a known problem, but your issue may not be caused by the same obstacle.
To make sure your issue is resolved, I will need to escalate your ticket to our Tier 3 support team, they will respond to your inquiry within 24-48 hours.
Currently our engineers are working hard on a fix for this issue and hope to have one in place soon.
You: so are you saying there is no fix for my issue at this point and time?
GM : I am sorry, I do want to get you in the game but at the moment I have run out of troubleshooting steps for this issue
You: well what is the issue that you have found?
GM : Certain customers are experience connectivity issues and we are looking into the cause of the problem.
You: so i have a lame duck game because no matter what i do I will be unable to connect?
You: how do i obtain a refund for this?
GM : If you wish to refund your order, you must contact the retailer in which sold the game, in this case it would be Steam.
You: so your tier 3 support will take 1-2 days to respond to me via email?
GM : We do strive for a faster response time than this, but standard response time is 24-48 hours.
You: and there is noone there today that can look at this for me today?
You: ?
GM : Our engineers are working on a fix for this issue as we speak, but I am sorry I do not have a ETA on the fix.
You: ok well i will wait for your tier 3 support to respond to the ticket you are going to create ty have a nice day
GM : May I assist you with anything else today?
GM : I am sorry I was unable to help you, I hope you Have a good day and thank you for contacting Trion Worlds.
So like many others I am having the connectivity problems too. And yes you would think the company would resolve this crap with the beta but no they just release **** over and over take the money and run just like all the other companys. Hopefully they will resolve these matters, money don't grow on trees ya know and I feel like you robbed me for $60.......
How long sledgehammer I get the message that my connection timed out
Interesting. Hope its done soon.
i was just starting the tutorial
Thanks for the update
You guys are awesome and so is the game, ignore the spoiled, impatient horde!
It is nice to be kept updated. Since it's been running so fantastically for me, I cannot or rather will not complain. As for "PT" that's Pacific Time, United States. Which is UTC -8:00 for those I cannot remember that mentioned international players.
yeah geting timed out over here, before the servers are going down you guys do what you gotta do to bring them up
Thank you for all your hard work. The wait will be worth it.
Hopefully there is no rollback....
Keep up the good work, this is the best MMO I've played in a long time. And none have launched without some tuning in the first weeks.
Sup Big Perm, I mean Big Worm....
Just bought this game, cant even get passed the first cut scene lolllll wtf is this
This is the roughest first week for a MMO in a very long time. Maybe they should have had a few more Beta weekends. Apparently 3 was not enough. Granted what Defiance is "trying" to do is remarkable, cross-platform, seamless servers, TV tie-in -- but still, QA is king.
This is going in my sig.
MY character has gotten a lot uglier now that I've been staring at him for 30min. Not to mention it feels like he's peering into my soul.
Keep up the good work Trion. Except for around the downtime maintenance periods I haven't had a single problem yesterday or today.
