How long will this tuesday's maitenence be?

[mkdimmortal]

Just like the title says, how long do you think it will be? i wasint playing at the time when they raised it to 89 so im asking around :o

[Plushii]

I bet at least 4 hours, but I don't mind cuz I be working then T.T (Don't become an accountant people >.< it sucks <--- random)

[mkdimmortal]

I'll try to keep that in mind......lol is your bet from the other cap raise or just a guess?

[Twenty-Nine_Rooks]

Usually the bigger content adds can be 5-10 hours. I think when they added Epith server, it began at 10:00 pm PST and did not end until the morning of the next day, around 5 am.

I assume adding a server is WAYYYY more time consuming than just some maps,npc's and such.

[nishant-rocks]

takes 10~12 hours if nothing goes wrong

[MelvinUnderBelly]

wow.

10char

yesh EST Ftw.
but i still dont like the fact that its going to take forever to patch.

[allyyCORE]

maintenance for tuesday (4/21/09) will probably be skipped since the level cap raise and next major patch is on wednesday.

It would be impractical for Outspark to do a tuesday maintenance, closing the game for at LEAST 2 hours, and then again on Wednesday for a major patch, closing the game a further few hours.

Epic fail lol
maitnenece(21st)carries into wednesday(22nd) so they posted the cap raise is released the 22nd.

[kuda_kufog]

they will most likely close the game at 3pm OS time and not open it till complete kinda like when they started cbt for windslayer it would be best if they did it in the afternoon as most ppl would want to test out stuff or they may just close the game down at 10 am when they all come into work and can get started on it right away early in the morning when they not so much in dilerium or a gigantic stupor

and yes there will be problems and epic crashes afterwords cus thing will go wrong

[FlashBoom]

well the 89cap raise was like 7-8hr maintenance i believe, so expect that or more

[fireyair]

New town.

Expect the worst. Expect a 24 hour downtime.



Peace:cool:

[FlashBoom]

well not exactly a new town, i mean its like SH, which is a mini town, but ya last update was 1map, this is 3+ w/ alot of new stuff

[Andromeda]

Eh 1 map? Try 4

Burning Rock
Flaming Mine
Guardians Holy Shrine
Holy Place of Abyss

Then a few months later Dragons Tomb was released so you can probably actually say 5 if you want.

The cap raise wont include Aberstoll Ruins because the enemies in Aberstoll Ruins are Lv 106+ and the cap raise only goes up to Lv 105.

There should only be 4 areas coming with this patch

Swamp of Dawn
Temple of Spirit
The Lv 90 Dungeon
The Lv 90 Abyss

then why did they show pictures of it on the page? the page that shows the maps, gear and mobs. The maps are all from Abestroll Ruins x.x

but yeah it maybe extended a couple of hours I say. Not as long as last year's because along with last year's cap raise came the marriage feature. the monarch sytem was released as well I believe? Oo

[kouturoq]

^^^ Silky or someone even said Alberstoll was being released, sayin' its the next new town we're getting, since Vera isn't coming with this patch.

As for how long the patch will take..lol I remember 89 took all night, Snakey was the last man standing. XD

*Edit*

Phouch Lv.103 (Lv. 103~105)
Grade NORMAL Type Beast Attack AGGRESSIVE
Habitat Swamp of Dawn, Alberstoll ruins

8D lvl106+, eh?

[andrey1990]

What the?!!? 24 hours? O.o

[TheCentrix]

an other reason it takes so long is because they have to test to see if it works. they test it before too (lol) but they need to know if it works on the actual live server.

[t3nchi]

expect 1 week down time xDDDD

[whatever1234567]

expect 1 week down time xDDDD

But epic 10 days extra on all CS items :o

I remember that patch in April '08, no way that was tested out.

Also, Silky did verify that Aberstoll Ruins was going to be in the patch.

Enemies in Flaming Mine are Lv. 90+, so that kind of defeats your argument about Aberstoll not being released because of high level mobs.

[Sharlyne]

A lot of hours like last time lol think was 8+h

[Andromeda]

Well not exactly since the weakest enemy in FM is Lv 88 (Lava Vivi) since the cap went up to Lv 89. It would have been beneficial to include it for the quests.

The only reason I can see them releasing Alberstoll Ruins early is in attempt to free up the lag in Uruga and hoping over half of Urugas populations makes their home in Alberstoll Ruins.

On another note I wonder if this patch will also add the Burning Rock enemies into Forest of Slumber since half of the enemies in Burning Rock and one from Flaming Mine are supposed to be in FoS as well. It will make Forest of Slumber more difficult but then again Earth Spiders havent been added to Forest of Mist yet so maybe that will come with Tuesdays patch too.

Just quotin' myself for Andromeda.

Phouch is level 103, and is a mob in Alberstoll Ruins.

"Well not exactly since the weakest enemy in FM is Lv 88 (Lava Vivi) since the cap went up to Lv 89. It would have been beneficial to include it for the quests."

Now for the third time, Phouch is the lowest level enemy in AR, level 103. The new cap will be 105. Beneficial to include it for our quests, hm hm, I think so. :D

*Edit* Unless they remove Phouch from AR and keep them strictly to SoD. x.X;

[ffron]

Dont be surprised if they break the game as usual, id say probly a day or 2 if nothing happens

Some quests give you mobs to kill when they're turning green.
Sure it may have been beneficial, but I think it's more beneficial Outspark has decided to save that quest for Lv.90+, when grinding for 143mil+ is going to be a pain in the you know what.

Regardless of who's right or wrong, the fact is, Aberstoll Ruins was guaranteed to be in the patch by Silkster.

[Chaola]

The next town is called Aberstol Ruins.

the Phouch is HUGE...

To me it sounds like the map Aberstol Ruins is being released ._.

But yeah, last time it lasted long, and then there was a server problem, iirc, and we couldn't play for days without lag ._."

[kristylynn]

lag, Lag, LAG.... I got the most lag now I have ever had.
3-7 fps while playing. I get 20-30 in town on the other online game I play. I have seen Uruga drop to 2 fps in the busy time of the day for me. There are parts of FOS I can't even ride my dragon through I have to get off and run otherwise I just stand still. This is all with the server saying low at login.

I just hope it is tested more so then the last cap raise

[mkdimmortal]

^ that has to do with the hours of maitenenece.....how?
