Why are the servers going down again? Free tmog? Ilvl 120 gear? Broken profession equipment? Overtuned dungeons? Tmog price reduction? New goblin skins? New seasonal power system for the prepatch? Rollback the stat squish?
I was thinking it was just for fun on their end.
Hopefully to revert the API changes.
Scramble, finger-point, cover your own a$s…
May they stay down until this mess is undone
Actually that is a valid point, nothing better than turning something off just to turn it back on. Wonder how many times before it actually breaks tho lol
Would be cool if we got an update as to what’s being updated…
Sorry, that was me. Tripped over the big power cable keeping everything on.
WHAT / tell us what they are DOING ???
Maybe there’s an exploit they are fixing they didn’t want to announce until after it was fixed?
likely to fix some of the bugs (karesh portal not spawning anymore if you didnt have the quest done already, locking you out of content),and possibly fixing the tuning issue of some of the mythic raids and harder content.
It’s 7am in Cali, i doubt anyone at office other than IT.
Here, i got one for you:
The update contains an update for the update to the updated game that has been getting updated weekly since 2004, with the most recent one being now, because it must be up to date, ie updated.
There’s approximiately a 0.000, repeating, of course, percent chance of them doing that before at least May.
OH WAIT I KNOW — it is to fix all the bugs / problems / goofs that have stayed in the game since day one
Intern fell asleep on the large red “shut down servers” button.
One can hope. ![]()
Maybe the hamster died and the had to go to the pet store for a new one
It would be cool if annually blizzard sent you a letter in game, either for your birthday or just cause, and told you something like “hey, we see you have been doing this raid for 20 years now, keep going while we break your gear so you cant do it anymore until s8 of the next xpac”
…. My guess is because the bugs caused by Microsoft/Blizzard letting go REAL (good) coders… for Vibe coding that broke stuff?
