New Patch

FinneganFroth

Hello all,

I am brand new to this game, though played the Beta about a year ago. Just picked it back up after it became B2P.

Anyways, I know that this question seems petty to those of you who have played this game since the beginning, but it's been a long time since I've played an MMO and would like to know this info. Generally how long does the scheduled maintenance for patch updates take. I'm sure it varies from patch to patch, but I was just hoping for a ballpark estimate. Thanks!

2-4hrs, the patch is up now so expect the game to go back online within the hour

2 hours and more. "More" can mean 2.5 hours or the whole day.

its available to download now and the servers will come up shortly. If patching and downtime is something you dont want to deal with EVERY week then it is time to move on before you get frustrated welcome back....now that its free

I don't mind the patch downloads week to week. I was use to it with WoW about 9-10 years ago. Just been a while since I've played a game like this so was trying to gauge the process.
