And they just can't ignore the folks (like me) that can't log in no matter how much people have played this week. As I suggested in a previous post (from Tuesday I think) they should have done the rollback then. I'm guessing they had no idea how messed up the data was.
Additionally, A few words to the folks that were able to play all week yet complain about losing gems or adventures or resources or time.
Now folks, we should use common sense here. Buying gems during a time when a vast number of players couldn't log in was ill advised. But this is easy to fix. They will know when you bought gems and how far back the rollback goes. Retroactive gems no problem here....
Losing resources from upgrading? Not really. You use 5k granite and 5k gold, it will be there. Sux if you started a lev 5 upgrade. Those 1-5 days would be a pain. But if you started it after Monday you shouldn't get too upset. Shaky server performance is not the time to upgrade to a 5.
Loot. Yeah this is where you lose of course. Really sux no doubt. But I'm sure EVERYONE hit granite on every adventure this week right? However those folks that went 5 for 5 on *** ore and saltpeter can't be too mad though.
Time. Yeah this one would upset me the most if I were able to log in all week. Can't blame you there. Have to be honest though.... I did enjoy the time away from the game this week. Got another hour of sleep everyday!
Anyhow, let's hope the rollback does more than just allow the folks that couldn't log in to get back online. I would hate to see the ramifications a second downtime like this would have on the community. Here is to hoping they figure out what caused this mess in the first place....
