It's not 1 o'clock yet.

The message at 10:58 that said, "This server is shutting down in 2 minutes," must have been a hoax.

It definitely said 2 hours

[C-Dog]

The joys of automation. :/

Ouch... Right in the EU evening play time =/

Edit: Also, will there be any update to the DDO software to alleviate the bank/AH/trader slowness? Or is this just a restart to unclog the pipes, because that didn't help much looking at the Ghallanda restart of Sunday.

There is no time where someone will not be hit. Is what it is.

Since no update has been announced... can you guess what the probable answer is to your question? :cool:

On Khyber, the first warning came up at 2 hours until restart. I made a batch of new characters, ran Korthos, and completed Misery's Peak with, like, 15 seconds to spare. :D

It's SSG.

Given their track record of communication and transparency with changes, it's a valid question even if it shouldn't be. Even more so given that they're doing an out-of-cycle restart. One would hope that maybe they're doing so to correct some of the bugs and issues they need to fix from shoving that half-baked update out the door.

[bowtietim]

I got a 30 second notice. Nothing else and i have been on since 3am west coast. At least i finished the quest i was in 15 seconds before lol. facepalm

The restart is to help with all the types of lag. What is funny since the update, Today Cannith was running smoothly :) so go figure tht one.

Cannith also had a restart Sunday which did help

I'm sick of changing things within the game that really affect the gameplay.

Last night on G-lamd, which had an extra reboot on Sunday, my friend couldn't log out to grab a piece of gear off a bank. After 5 minutes or so he have up and we continued questing...45 minutes later it finally logs him out in the middle of a dungeon. The worst part is, even though we were only halfway through, his dungeon quest tracker vanished when he logged back in and he didn't get credit for finishing the dungeon and we had to run Dunwater a second time.

Well, I hope you and your friend is ok!! Those problems are not important here in my opinion. You should open an issue inside of the game and write a message!!

Was in a group doing the second half of Sharn last night, and one of the group members was teleported out of the quest and back to his guild ship - presumably a delayed failed click to enter his ship finally triggered.

They messed up a whole bun

Ohh great!!! That's a good idea!! They work that way. If you put an error here they will ignore it because it has nothing to do with the subject of the post.

The problem there when you log out and it does not log you out, Anything you do after that click is lost when it finally takes effect.

[Volarr]

I have had failed bank clicks open within a quest twice, of course i could not access anything in the bank since it was too far away but it could get you killed.

[StormKnight]

Make sonic blast kill two kobolds again.

[Volarr]

Games up

[Cordovan]

Yes, sorry, forgot to post here. The game worlds reopened around 2:38pm Eastern.

For real. Even if it cant be a circle AOE, at least make it chain once or twice

[DRoark]

Of course they completely butchered it, because of the Stormsinger. A canon-sacrifice to the Gods of Ineptitude.

Because apparently they think every Bard alive didn't want to have a decent ranged AOE they could actually use.
