All Worlds Maintenance (Apr. 23)

At the following time, we will be performing FINAL FANTASY XI maintenance on all worlds. During this period, FINAL FANTASY XI will be unavailable.

Maintenance operations will delete any reservations for Pankration matches. Players who are scheduled to participate in Pankration matches, those who will enter Assault, Salvage or Einherjar areas, or those who will participate in Dynamis or Limbus at the time of the maintenance, we ask that you please wait until maintenance is complete before engaging in these activities. Please note that we cannot replace items that are lost during the maintenance process.

Thank you for your understanding and patience.

* The World Transfer Service will be unavailable starting 30 minutes before the maintenance. Please wait until after the maintenance is completed before attempting to use this service.

In before "OMG SE HATES THE NAs"

[Antithesis]

Wonder what this is for

[Liquidedust]

Its between 16:00 and 18:00 for me in Sweden . . . this is just weird a maint not obstructing my game hours (hurray I suppose, but will probably be an extension on it anyhows )

[Chen]

this is the closest a maintance has ever come to not ruining EU primetime. :nikkei:

I think you did the math wrong, as it is between 19h00 and 21h30 here in Belgium [CET](unless *I* did the math wrong, /blush)... The PDT stands for Pacific Daylight Time, which should currently be -9h from CET...

so 1800-2030 for those of us who are GMT+1 which would be both sweden and Belgium, unless I too, fail maths.

[Octavious]

I don't know if this is just speculation, but recently I would have macro lag off/on for some reason. Basically, if I were to use a macro for something as simple as Ranged Attack it would R0 me almost instantly for a split second, then bounce back. It didn't occur last night, however Friday & Saturday it happened to me for a good 2-3hrs. Also, some NPCs would give me an R0 as well, something like when the Sanction NPC froze PS2 users. D:

[Trythison]

I bet they're fixing cure freezing and AV.

Yep I did the fail! Thought EST/EDT for some obscure reason, still it is during dinner hours so not overly bad anyhow

[Rocl]

Nobody cares about EU players, it's clearly a ninja update to the entire game adding new WoTG missions, HNMs, and "fixing" Ridill. Also, tweaking Absolute Virtue's behaviour. This is in addition to; banning every gilbuyer, gilseller, and player who's used a third party program- effectively reducing the player base of FFXI by 95%.

Now that I've exhausted every outlandish possibility aside from something like "Deleting the game, lol" I think we can go on with our lives.

[sruon]

Taking bets on the number of emergency maintenances after this.

[Jkun]

I just sent SE an E-Mail two days ago asking them to put Samba effects back on pets. D:

Maybe...MAYBE...

Nah forget it. I got the default E-Mail reply.

[Olo401]

Urgh... I hope to hell this doesn't give more than a half hour file update. If I miss an Odin fight because of this shit...

Except CET is currently GMT+2 due to Daylight savings time >_< Britain is on GMT+1 (or BST) currently, and CET is one hour more...

[Hanyoko]

Here is to hoping that its some of the issues addressed in Bercus's long list.

I've been getting the same thing.

[Neosutra]

Its updates like this that remind me that Pankration is still in the game.
