Emergency Maintenance - 4 - 19

News & Announcements Started Last reply 42 posts
All game servers will be down for emergency maintenance on Thursday, April 19, 2012, at 3pm PDT / 5pm CDT / 6pm EDT / 10pm UTC/GMT (see other time zones (http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Lineage+II+Emergency+Mainteannc e&iso=20120419T15&p1=234)). Estimated downtime is approximately 20 minutes.

With this maintenance:


The issue of Extra Kartia Entrance Passes having been reverted to tradable versions is fixed; these items available in the L2 Store will be switched out for non-tradable versions.
And this couldnt have waited to wednesday?

Epic Fail!

Fix other issues first i say
I bet that's why I saw group Kartia completely filled up today!
thx for maintance during fortuna..
Good... with this donators have more options for take adena... i am not donator (i know donations are necessary).
The real problem is enter to kartia solo... 30 min waiting & can't enter, regards.

What donators? This isn't a private server.

No one is a donator here. You are BUYING something therefore are NOT donating. If it was a donation you'd get nothing for the money. UGH this not a private server doof.

d'oh beat me to it

QFT anyways

actually there are alot of issues , like fortuna spawning 2 bosses or invisible bosses( i lost my cd on 2nd boss coz it god bugged lol) ,istina not telling when she gonna use poison or acid , sookie not responding ,the geodata bugs , rly full of bugs wtf.
This not a private server doof.

Correct. This is much worse.
What donators? This isn't a private server.

With all this l2store its like a private server, but only with official, proper licensed server software.

In private servers all "donators" buying some items in fact. Thats why its no problem in calling our "buyers" with such a word as donators :) Same movements - give your money, receive ingame item, cant see any difference.

Ofc it couldnt, ncsoft loosing their $$$, cuz ppl can buy passes for adena, not directly in l2store

this is so...
and where does the passes bought with adena comes from? idiot !
Servers up and sill not vit :(
Ncsoft might as well just sell adena, I mean seriously. This is consider an Emergency? How about getting stuck on everything imaginable, I would say that is an emergency... that requires a fix.

qft
lol? u bring server for emergency when such as kartia pass is tradeable but you wait 7 days for geodata fix ?:D Are this company is ok?

Is your database inhabited by leprechauns, gremlins or something?
What item they are going to "invert" next?

It's pretty funny when trying to even enter a clan hall and getting stuck on the wall of the door even with both doors open.

:eek:

NCsoft has their head up their.... What has Korea forgotten how to code Lineage II NA? I mean seriously, are they having as many problems as us?
Most annoying was the 15min warning.
I mean seriously? There been ppl that entered Kartia and couldnt finish it in time. Ppl doing Fortuna etc while server went down.

(Won't even talk here about the emorage mentees that left their mentor cos he was sleeping already and didn't relog his char after the downtime... Welcome 7 day penalty....)
was about 5 min from finishing istina for the first time when server went down.

was about uninstall game after i saw this thread.
Wouldnt have hurt at all if u had announced it hours earlier IN GAME and even restarted it at the usual time
Its not like it was a major problem..
Question?

There is a some law in US that restricts you the following thing:in you buy an in game ITEM for money (L2Store exemple) you can't sell it for ingame currency?
I see this no tradable stuff that you are giving free spaces for RMT-ers.
Why i buy FROM U NCWEST somthing and i sell it for a rich guy in ade why i need Adena what is the problem here?

or other politics: Pay2Win
Only other F2P game ive played is Allods and there you could sell everything u bought from ingame store afair...

I bet they earn(ed) a lot more than NC will ever make with these restrictions...
It was not the best attitude to warn 15 min ... FAIL

Don't forget Istina giving less xp if anyone disconnects and rejoins. Lost 600m xp on a recent raid (GMs confirmed it has happened a couple of times).
the sad detail about this is that they manage to fix stuff reletad to NcShop (therefore $$$) within a emergency maint. but cant fix a simple geo issue. The easiest way would be to undo the fix they implemented for the ppl getting stuck in gludio square which screwed up everythig, to hell with them since most of ppl in gludio are wartags camping towns. Whats better then getting stuck in peace zone? getting stuck pulling trains as a tank!!
What part of "if they dont have a fix for the geodata, one cannot be implemented" is too hard for you to understand?

At least you have a crown of tinfoil lol.
his point is that the global server issues didn't start until the "fix" for Gludio so he does have a point that it's better to "undo" that fix and see if the global issues go away as well then imo..

nobody likes getting stuck this much..
You seem to think they can just undo a previous fix.

I have a feeling they cannot.

I'm not gonna tell you the fact that they havent done so is proof enough that its not that easy, but you gotta admit, there is a high probability I might be correct.
its always said that our fellows from
NcNA get everything from overseas since the asians have the devs etc. to take care of this stuff. Nor me or you are professionals having academics in knowledge regarding this technical stuff. But we can assume that this elmorewide getting stuck started with their afford to fix the gludio geo unless it was something we were not told before like many other ninjapatches that happen. But i assume the devs have backup server files from days back. It's not like the files which were changed on the given maintance are barking dogs who attack anyone who tries to undo parts of them or?
Do you have prior knowledge of running an official server Kamo?

No?

Ok.

Ok.


I've been on an offficial PTS with builder 2 rights and I slept in a Holiday Inn last night. Does that qualify me to answer? Probably not but I will anyways :D

I'm sure they have back-ups of previous builds, but it's also likely that they're told not to do that short of total catastrophic failure.

Sorry smittie but there are no more flying f´s left to start a cyber battle about biased arguments :(

It´s obvious that problems related to the $$$ income are handled much faster then stuff like the geo. But hey why should this change if there are ppl like you who furiosly disarm each and every argument of ppl who actually try to raise attention against it :* Ofc there is still the possibility of "not beeing able to fix it", in which case a simple update on the case would calm alot of anger.
So we should assume Sace or her equals are allowed to share all info with us?

Seems like too much assuming.

I'm not trying to defend Sace or her company in any way here, but ppl need to realize some problems cant be fixed by snapping your fingers, or screaming at the top of their lungs.
...and then NC-Korea will respond:
"Since the development of L2-GoD has been outsorced to India we cannot help you with your current issues because we lost the memo which one out of 400,000,000 Indian programmers is responsible for the fix.
Sorry for inconvenience, and thanks for playing Lineage 2!"
