I got in (on Zeus) for about 2 minutes ... and now all I get is "connection to the server has been lost".
FWIW. YMMV.

it's late their exhausted it takes a lot out of one to screw up that bad and work on it for over 18 strait they need to rest if they don't mistakes can happen they could accidently fix something
and think of it they will save a 100 gems /person on the system
Back when I was a CL, Zeus always went down for maintenance before Ares and came up first. My guess is that they *thought they* figured out the problem on Zeus first and then were going to replicate to Ares tomorrow. But from what I'm hearing, it might not be fixed on Zeus either (completely, anyway).
Ah drats, looks like Ares will still be off for sure until tomorrow. A disappointment for sure but I will live. I'm not even level 50 so I have nothing new in the category to look forward to, but hopefully some Sorry for the Extended Maintenance Gifts will be waiting.
I just don't understand how a 6 hour maintenance turns into 24 hours. You would think with their track record they might err on the side of caution with their predictions. Next time just pause everything for 24 hours and give everyone a nice bonus. Less stress for them and less frustration for us.
[QUOTE=Spikescopilot;264739]Back when I was a CL, was that 10-15 years ago?
Because it's complicated.
I've seen servers where hardware settings make code perform differently according to how a switch is set. And I haven't seen a drop of what's out there.
No matter how bad you want the server to be up and running, I assure you that the people whose paycheck comes from it, those people who are so deeply vested in this game that they work on it for their way of life - they want it up and running more than you do. Not because of the lost revenue but because they love this enough to do it for a living.
It will be up as soon as they can make it that way. Until such time as it returns to service it's best to muster what patience you can and spend the time figuring out what you want to do with the new content when it's available.
can we use gems to log in early? lol.
still waiting
lol binder,i'm with you!
you knowthey went home for the night, right? they'll work on it again in the morningwhen they get back to work...
2:39 am it is morning itsnt it?
where is the bb headquarters? what country?
Germany I think
still waiting? O.o
the headquarters are in germany. i'm hoping their 'morning' starts around when they normally do maintenance, around 4AM (EST) so hopefully if we all (try) to have a (offline) life, and go back when we get up in the morning they'll ... only have a few hours left lol. i'm thinking they'll be up mid afternoon tomorrow.... I know they're working hard and don't want to give them any *** but I.NEED.MY.FIX. *sigh* i just feel bad for everyone who didn't shut off everythign last night. if i wanted it to run only with a buff, i shut it down, and warned others to do so...but i can imagine a lot of people's special mines went down today, and they're not ogoing to be happy :/
The German server was supposed to do maintenance and update tonight, but they postponed the update till later this week sometine
I'll be back tomorrow night to check out these "new" things then. I look forward to reading your reviews. :)
"Update 7:30 PM EDT: Zeus is back online. Ares will remain closed, the maintenance will continue tomorrow and we will add 48 hours of Premium/Adventure time to Ares Settlers."
What about the rest of us? Imma thinking a few hundred gems... (okay... a girl can dream... right...?)
tell me about it...
poke... *sigh*
But I can use the extra sleep :)
ill be up all night waiting ...clicking play over and over...
Poke ...Back
*poke* i'm soooooo bored!!! it's amazing how much of a non-life i have when settlers is down :(
Still the game is down. I don't understand why buff times are not also extended during these times? I time my buffs to run out after the shut down normally completes, but extended shut down of over a day is on them and they should extend the buff times as well as the other extensions they give to the time base aspects to this game.
wait and wait some more... is it 2 moro yet?
It doesn't even matter if they have spouses and childern...it's called work, not "free to go because family". Emergencies are obviously another story, but bringing up their family for a reason is invalid, work is work.Quote:
Their programmers do need to sleep and have spouses and children I assume.
it is 6am... hopefully the A-team is working on it now.
wow u guys still on here?..lol
of course
make a Zeus account :-P
hehe... i farted when i read ...class action lawsuit can happen...hehe a little extreme dont u think?..lol
Never !

it's now 8:50am in Germany so I was wondering if it's now moore-negk?
I'm sure you will get all 3 of us up to speed as soon as you have something positive to expound
but the taverns are going to close soon and I'll be put out with my broken mouse in hand
wondering about the terrible machinations of a giant company like Ubi and other saturated
thoughts at this point late in the dark on the West coast.....any advice?
As per the homepage, "no ETA yet". 30 minutes until a 24-hours maintenance...
Still nothing then, this is a good way to piss people off
Patience grasshopper.
No ETA yet, that was his answer and it beats no news at all
like in the past
