Sucks. Just bought the game today. Then all the time to install it then had to wait 4 hours for the servers to go back on. Atleast I got to play it a little bit before the servers went down again.. Is this common here?
For some people maybe but besides the patches it usually goes smoothly for me.Quote:

And still down.:p
So seriously, I can understand wanting to fix things, but is it really worth taking the servers down for over 2 hours just to stop some players from getting some 1 time only free duplicates?
For real, I think long server down time will lose them more players and therefore more money, then the money they may lose from players getting some 1 time only free duplicates.....
FYI, I like the game and it's worth the wait and cost, but the update priorities seem to be really backwards at Trion.

No, it's not a major, game-breaking problem; yes, it's people exploiting the system, but they could well include it in the next major patch, it's not something that necessarily ruins the experience. Cheaters and exploiters are BS, but don't take the servers down for this long just to fix such a particular issue.
I would agree, but people was doing it more then once... By logging out then back in they were able to claim those items over and over again...for some of the thing they were getting (weapon skills and backpack space) I don't blame them for bringing it down...my only question is WHY SO LONG???Quote:
