rolling simply means they won't do ALL the NA servers at the same minute but will roll thru the list IMO.Quote:

Is there anyway to notify the people playing they game better so we do not start a long mish. I understand why it is getting done, just that little chat down there is easy to miss.
Server will shut down in 10 minutes.Quote:

Server will now be shut down.
lol they do this in orange text
They already do that in the chat window.
This game is basically still in beta. Or, at least the servers are.
Plenty of F2P MMOs have had better launches than this garbage.. and if I lost all the progress I made in story missions today, I'll be nothing less than pissed.
Mine just came back up on ps3
Not sure on DDO but WoW, really took em what 2.5 weeks to get it playable, and the bugs, the bugs, some are still ingame from launch just not a big deal. I admit after Rift's very smooth release(not perfect but great by MMO standards) I am a bit confused by this server instability, really thought it was gonna be smooth, but I enjoy the game none the less and will see where it takes me.Quote:

Servers are up

We're all paying attention; to the game; not the stupid chat box. And if over 80% of players don't ever see the notification, then maybe the notification system sucks. Stop blaming players for things that aren't their fault.Quote:

But you paid $60 for a type of game that has never been done on a console before. This is uncharted territory, people. Lets be happy we're a part of it!
Ps3 is up....
How do I do this, I thought the chat windows were not customizable because of the console crossover.Quote:

I understand this is new grounds for a mmo to span across 3 systems (each their own) will be issues.
Lmao@u we're use to the servers being down, they can take 3 more days off of being off line for what I now care.. This game shouldn't of been online till all crash issues were resolved, that's what betas are for.Quote:

i dont know if its the lag but at an arkfall or when theres 10 to 20 other players around me they all have the same skin, amor, etc.....other words hundreds of the same guy. Sometimes there real character will load in, is this a lag issue?
How far back is the rollback usually?
already done that. the problem is they never said where to turn them in. I just had to read it on the forums. Also, they dont give any sort of decent map indicator for the general area so you just have to run around looking, which has also been discussed on the forums.Quote:

Relax man every mmo starts out like this, it take time to get all the bugs out and to get all the kinks out of the servers. We will eventually be play a game where they only update every couple of month or when they need to do some work on the server. These things take time running a mmo is not as easy as it looks.Quote:

dem timeouts xD thank you for the notice :P
so you all KNOW that the notifications pop up in the chat window but choose to ignore it anyways? im not saying that the notifications are good because they do need to move them but....damn dude, pay attention lol.Quote:
