I realize this now, but I saw no reason at the time to take it as a "when we're ready" statement, as opposed to a "we're ready, go for it" statement. I'm a developer myself and I know downtime estimates, always err on the side of caution. But sometimes? Yeah, we've finished early. You make it sound like what they say is absolute, as in it will be down for 30 minutes no matter what. Hey, if that's the case, well then now I know. But a big red post saying to exit out to the dashboard to receive the patch, kinda infers that it was the mod updated the situation to let us know we were good to go.
No, I read the post just fine. Was the first thing I read when I came in the thread. Then I saw the big red underlined direct statement telling us to dashboard.
You think you're so smart, like ya got me somehow. You didn't. It is you with the blinders on pal, you who is thinking to narrow to grasp my point.
I can understand how you thought that the underlining and bold red text did seem to have a sense of urgency to it. It was probably to prevent people coming in after and complaining that the update didn't work. Although, I don't think we need to continue this though to prevent a misunderstanding turning into an argument.
TRION is doing an exemplary job of keeping us informed, especially via twitter. They're providing real time updates on their page, I'm pretty impressed. I mean it could be a looooooooooooot worse. Idk how many of you are/were sucked into that console disappointment of biblical proportions known as Crysis 3, but Crynet/EA seemed almost determined to keep its users in the dark. I'm just happy TRION is responding to us..

Oh hey guys, I've got this sweet bag that I spent $150 on
It's pretty great. I was supposed to get a neat game to go with it but so far I've never gotten past the title screen...
