You cannot be serious IMC suddenly 3 hour early maintenance?

[shiroitora85]

I was a corsair build using Jolly Roger to farm orange weapon materials - so yeah I waited to reset at the last minute to a new build last night and buy attributes after work.

I don’t have all day to read patch notes. Not to mention needing to examine the time it’s taking place. Most people assume it remains the same every week and might be extended. Not randomly changing the time it starts every week.

If they had any sense they would do maintenance in the early mornings. Most people are used to a developer making a big deal about maintenance time changing because it effects their paying customers.

Blizzard figured this out a long time ago. Thats why their maintenance wont start early unless they announce it way before. Not to mention they are done in the AM hours. https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/breaking/20039305

Less need for employees to pull an all nighter every week. You also have happier employees.

You don’t screw over your players that work all day or go to school during the day.

Why are people even defending this? Sure you can say hind sight is 20/20 and you shouldn’t wait to do things at the last minute but as a company they have poor decision making and these kinds of changes can piss off people enough to quit.

It’s just bad management - I can accept my mistake but they need to know this is not acceptable as well.

It’s 1 pm in Korea right now that’s why they are doing maint at this time. You think IMC will work overnight?

[wolfdoggie]

Can I have free tokens, instance resets and skill resets to make up for the maintenance?

[shiroitora85]

Not more of that please -.-

Just one more day of the -20% attribute discount it said it didn’t end until the 24th

How do you say “Stop, I dont like it in my as*” in Korean b/c obviously something is getting lost in the translation. We have been screaming “PLZ STOP” for about 9 months now, is there an IMC safe word I dont know about?

[xgclaw]

if you dont have all day to reach patch notes. How are you going to read whenever blizzard decides to change the date of their maintenance? oo

you should also never plan anything around deadlines;)

ppl are most likely defending it, because its not unlikely that something like this happens, with IMC even more likely, you should plan for that… you didn’t

its as much imc’s fault as it is your own tbh

Look, you might have a case if they didn’t announce it properly. However, since they did you have no one to blame but yourself for not reading said announcements. And you can’t use “i don’t have time” as an argument, since it literally only takes like 30 second to quickly visually scan the maintenance announcements for any important details. You tell me you have hours of free time to farm for some level 315 items but you don’t have 30 seconds once a week to quickly look at the maintenance announcements?

Heck, since the loading time or the games startup time can sometimes take a while, you could’ve just alt-tabbed while the game was loading and looked at the announcements and then alt-tab back in when you’re done.

I don’t have all day to read patch notes. [/quote]
You don’t have to read patch notes all day, patch notes are usually posted one day in advance, so unless you were at work for the entire time before the announcement was up there is plenty of time to quickly read it for 30 seconds.

[quote=“kazamatenkai, post:10, topic:346049”]
You need to read the patch notes more carefully. This is BS, the player dont need to read nothing, stop put work on the player side. The player just need to play, and be happy. Stop this rhetoric. I know he is complaining, but dont make it appear that is the player job know what is going on all the time.[/quote]
Of course the player does not need to know everything that happens all the time.
However, the player has no right to complain when IMC made a proper announcement (which they did) but the player deliberately chose to ignore said announcement and thus was not prepared for what was announced in said announcement.
…
Hey, IMC, why don’t you send over personal butlers for each player? It seems like many people need personal assistants for reading your announcements because gosh darn they don’t have 30 seconds time to read your announcements every week. We have seen it with the rank reset announcements and we have seen it with this maintenance.

To the OP, plz just stfu and remove this thread. The more you try to explain your situation, the more embarrassing you become.
