Extended Maintenance (Part 2)

WoW Classic Mists of Pandaria Classic Discussion

Can Blizzard’s word be trusted for anything? Bro if you’re expecting the maintenance to be 2 hours, just say 2 hours. What kind of janky system do you have in place where you only find out in the last 5 minutes of the hour long maintenance that you’re performing that it’ actually going to take 2 hours?

last 5 minutes of the 2 hour extended maintenance rolls around

OH BRO my bad it’s actually 3 hours

last 5 minutes of the 3 hour extended maintenance rolls around

OHHHH BROOOO my bad my bad bro this time i promise its only gonna be 4 hours

last 5 minutes of the 4 hour extended maintenance rolls around

BROOOOOOOOOOO OKAY bro bro… bro okay this time i SUPER PINKY PROMISE bro its the last hour bro

Man, go outside for a little bit. Makes me sad how angry people get over losing a couple to a few hours of not playing a video game.

chill out. do something else. geesh.

If they say 1 and then it’s 2 or if they just say 2 to begin with… it’s still 2

It’s not bothering me at all. My point was that it takes as long as it takes no matter what they estimate it to be in the beginning.

Yeah exactly-- so if it’s gonna be 2 just be straight with people and say it’s 2 lmfao. You’re exactly right! It’s 2! So just say 2!

We pay for this game, and they give little to no reason for why there’s maintenance and what they’re trying to fix. Also, continually failing to meet the deadline they set themselves is not a good look.

At the very least, they should overestimate the maintenance times. That way, when they’re up early, everyone will be impressed!

It makes me sad that there is so many Blizzard apologists that continually try to shame paying customers for being rightfully upset and Blizzard being dishonest and inept with their tactics. Updating extended maintenance at the time its supposed to be done and doing so every hour all day long is probably the worst customer service you can have. And again I remind you these people are paying customers. Learn business…then talk

It is a little strange that they can’t determine the extension until the last few minutes.

I assume communicating the extension would take 5-10 minutes at minimum to get the info circulated to the team and posted to us, but waiting til the final minutes to say “hey its gonna be another 3 hours”, like they did on pre-patch is kind of inexcusable.

I can’t really see a realistic scenario that you don’t realize its going to take 3 extra hours 30 minutes before the scheduled resolution time.

The game is a paid service. Are we being Karens for crying about the maintenance maybe…I try not to complain to much as we don’t want blizzard to spit in our food.
