Feedback Another unscheduled maintenance

What is with you people. How hard can it be to post an official announcement on forum with the date and time of a server maintenance prior to doing the maintenance.

You owe me one advanced physic of vigor pink lvl, one tonic of vitality blue lvl, one pair of materi goggles.

 

it won't be the last one...

 

not really it says in the client where you type username and password.

Not really
Check the time of the announcement it is 9th of June, I saw it yesterday when it was posted, it was roughly at same time as the "R256 Patchnotes".



and the patchnotes posting time is



9th of June at 22:00.
Lets just say both were made at same time.
But, there is a catch ... The Announcement time is in Central European Summer Time (CEST) while the announced maintenance times are in Chinese Standard Time (CST) as mentioned in the announcement.
CEST = UTC +2
CST = UTC +8
That is 6 hours time difference ... European time is lagging 6 hours.
At the time of announcement at 22:00 which is late night ... it is already Early morning the next day in China.
That means it was already 10th of June in China at the time of announcement ... and the maintenance took place few hours later after the announcement ... around 03:30 CEST.

On top of it ... cigarbennett is playing on US based servers. While the maintenance is starting in same time on all servers, yet time zones in all Americas are lagging even more relative to the Chinese.

So that announcement you are referring to is useless and a big joke.
Not to mention the Patch was probably futile because at least 50% of the things mentioned in the patchnotes were not even implemented and it would probably need another hotfix later on.

 

That announcement was put in after the patch.
Does no good after.

Not only that what is so hard about putting an announcement in Fourm you know their official webpage. Like say oh 24 hours prior so players know what is happening.

 

Don't be silly, it's the new normal - recently, they announced start of a 4-day long New Moon event the day AFTER it ended (and no, it was not mentioned in the previous notes either): https://board-en.drakensang.com/threads/events-coming-in-june-first-week.85254/

 

Sorry @trakilaki but i still don't see where it is announced here the release 256 and tofay 11th june there has been another update/hotfix without any announce... anybody else suffered that when trying to go into the game it had to be download again before playing?

Thanks

 

That was probably the hotfix that changed it from 257_2 to 257_7. Here's a copy-pasta of the changes from Discord:
