    OK asking questions is now unacceptable... Guess I need to frame a sentence in such a way that it can be answered without offending the sensibilities of those who have the power...

    Statements promising content that cannot be released are poor form.

    Testing promised content prior to making statements is good form.

    EDIT - removed the question, I realise these are unacceptable.

    Although this is not ideal, this is the right decision. If you cannot do it without major disruptions, it's better to postpone it.

    It would be helpful to get an idea at what time tomorrow though.
  • @Shan , this update disrupted a lot of my fleet. Between missed gauntlet refreshes, lost voyages or just an inability to play the game in general. Wouldn't it make sense to to this update when the majority of the player-base isn't affected? I would think pushing this out at 2am EST would eliminate a lot of potential issues.

    Just a suggestion you could pass along.

    So to give more context: the issues we encountered today were not due to the server build we were hoping to release.

    The current plan is to release the server build and Episode 8 tomorrow morning, before Noon ET.

    Good call. I prefer some space between problems, and putting out an update late but working I think is better than early and problematic.

    It would also mean night shifts for the staff. And we Americans are not alone in the world.

    Is this a troll? Do we have an official announcement somewhere?

    Yep, it's on their FB page.

    Thanks. It wouldn't be the first time I had shared dodgy info with the fleet so I wanted to make sure.

    Awesome news

  • Ha. Q would have some difficulty dealing with me that's for sure.

    @Shan should we still expect Episode 8 in the next 44 minutes?

    They can still beat noon ET. but it does seem like the plan has changed.
  • JhamelJhamel ✭✭✭✭✭
    Is it true that the new release date is December 8th? There's rumors going round.

    It would be an odd coincidence if they pushed it to the 7th. Pearl Harbor Day.
  • JhamelJhamel ✭✭✭✭✭
    Oh, I'm not familiar with US holidays, so 8th then, I guess, unless it's really coming in 20 minutes, but I still can't believe it's actually gunna happen.

    What year? You sure it is this year?

    Do not mean to be sarcastic. DB is just making sure they get the bugs out.
    They should take the time they need. I guess they wanted this episode out with the megaevent. But if they need a month they should just postpone and not try to rush things.

    Will add we need announcement. Because, right now we are not running voyages or shuttles to have crew for away missions.

    Its not really a holiday, just a day we tend to be a bit more mellow. Its the prior generation's (or for some the generation before even them) 9/11...

    Well, they did say it will happen when the server build rolls over as usual, which is I think 1 hour after the 1 day pre-event pop-up (the pre-event should pop up in 8 minutes from now). So I think there's still time. If I am not mistaken, that's the message that gives you 10 comms on Faction.

    No, they said this:

    "The current plan is to release the server build and Episode 8 tomorrow morning, before Noon ET."

    Unless by 'before noon' they meant like 2 minutes before.

  • Well, they did say it will happen when the server build rolls over as usual, which is I think 1 hour after the 1 day pre-event pop-up (the pre-event should pop up in 8 minutes from now). So I think there's still time.

    But they (Shan) said before noon EST.

    Maybe they've reverted to the usual time, but that isn't what was communicated.

    DB have, as usual, caused their own problems. They release statements claiming something is coming on a certain date before bothering to check if it's possible. It's a strange form of professionalism they operate over there, but at least it makes life interesting for us lot.
