I Loled at the Gms. Instead of saying there will be a delay or having 2 - 3 hours dedicated to Maint. Just close the server for the night so everyone can keep raging.

We have the servers up and getting the patch ready for you all to start downloading. Not ready just yet, but getting closer.

Thanks for update Calanor. The patching time is coming closer. [Maybe well experience that patching problem we usually have, lets pray it wont happen this time.]

[CHiSEEN]

As the Topic title and description mention, unfortunately, there is an extended maintenance period of 3 hours taking place. We expect this extended maintenance period to conclude by 10:00 PM Pacific Time (in a little over 2 hours from the time of this post).

lol its extended to 3 hours now...
I like how he can edit the post without it saying that it was edited, so new people looking at it think that it said 3 hours from the start.

[yartrebo]

wrt to the patching problems, I'm pretty sure it's a bug in the patcher (and probably a very hard to find one - very hard to reproduce), not a bug with the any particular patch.

Calanor can u plzz tell us when will the exp issue be fixed? Thnx

Honest answer.

We have seen the reports, we have looked at the issue and nothing seems out of place for what we can see to make us believe something is wrong. Also for the number of people posting as if the EXP was reduced we have asked some and the response we got is that they didn't notice a decline.

Not saying we don't trust your words, but we can't figure out what specifics I guess might have changed. Its doesn't seem to be a global issue, but very well could be something with the Thanksgiving update caused specific monsters or monsters in specific areas to be reduced. When we say more details the better when it comes to bugs or issues honestly its needed because times like this I would love to tell you we see the issue and are addressing it, but what we read is that there is a problem and what we see doesn't make it the same.

We play our games but not to the extent you all do, most of our staff plays very casually because there just isn't enough time to allow for it. Its good to hear specifics from the community rather then generic its broke, fix it. I ain't no super hero, just a man with a title and a desire to make things right when I can.

I could have sworn hastur already admitted that there was a problem with the experience. I don't see how VC's 10k a mob (in hero mode) drops to 3k and there is no problem?

once again

Sorry for a delayed response, ever since the Thanksgiving "exp issue" we were aware that there was an issue. We are currently are working with Barunson to find out what has changed either server side or something that is causing this issue. At first we thought it may have been a fluke issue however with all the recent reports it seems to be a much larger issue. Hopefully we can find out what was changed and change it back or at the very least find out WHY it was changed. I'll keep you posted as soon as i know.

[nplooj]

Thnx for the post calanor. But trust me if there really was no problem about exp, we wouldn't have been complaining. And this exp issue is going to worsen things if its not fixed. The DS population might even decrease. I tell u this bcause some of my friends stopped playing DS because of low exp gains - i got their weapon powders hehe.
And yes is it true that weapon powder drop rate have significantly decreased or is it that i'm unlucky?

[tunafish]

If only we could go back in time to actually test the exp rates, and be able to show proof of such.

Since that's what they're looking for, right?
