I want to fucking play! Damn...
I ain't gonna lie, I'm feelin the oldish MMO style in this game that initially made MMOs my favorite genre. I haven't even played to level 20 on any character, but every hour I've played, I just become more attached to the game. I'm really impressed with the feeling they have captured with BDO. I can't believe how stale MMO's as a whole have become, so it's nice to see this game really flip the script on fantasy MMOs. I'm hoping that the game has some good success and the developers can continue to build on what they have created.

Stayed up till 2am to play, get the patches and now they say an extra hour.
Damn, I'll come back later in the day. Pretty poor communication. No patch notes, no updates on the official website.

Fucking christ, so much for getting some playtime in today.
They never do maintenance ? I don't even recall the launch of that game, made it to I think 45 or 50 and never played again.
I can't think of a time GW2's servers have been down since launch other than the time they were DDoSed
they pretty much never do, it's pretty fantastic. No downtime between patches either, pretty perfect system honestly, and it's a shame that other companies haven't copied.
Damn, impressive.
Yeah I dunno what wizardry ANet does to keep Guild Wars 2 up, but it's insane. They don't even have maintenance for patches usually.
Sadly it's the exception and not the norm for MMOs. :<

I see maintenance has been extended another hour to 17:00 UTC
Yeah I assume it has to be something right down in how they built their infrastructure or how the game was built. Pretty sure Blizzard, Square Enix and all the other company don't bring their servers down because they want to, but because they have too to keep things running smoothly.
I wonder if ArenaNet are running their own server or it's NCsoft, because they have plenty of MMO with downtime.
It's in the first post of the thread. (all the way down) GAF in Europe are on Jordine - Serendia 1. Serendia-1 is just a channel on Jordine, you can move around those to your leisure.
For sure. Trading is done by the Marketplace. You can even trade with NPC around the game. Like for example fish from a coastal city will sell more if they are still fresh to city far from water. Just an example I'm still new to the game myself. You can make boats, furniture for peoples home etc. There's a LOT of things to craft.

GW2 maintenance is invisible to the players. You just get a notice while you're playing that "new build is available". Then you logout when you want, download the patch, and get back in.
ArenaNet has the best infrastructure of MMOs ever. Was the same in GW1.

Still haven't gotten my refund. Can't play until then, cause I'm not gonna have them say they won't process it because I logged in.

Me too. After rebooting the game (sound wasn't working), the loading was quick.

No luck here, failed 3x now including running as admin...sigh. These programs dont even do shit anyway what a waste.
the prices are absolutely fucked up, don't buy them
funny thing they reduced the prices of the of store with 10%, those costumes were costing even more before
It was 32, but yea it's still a bit steep IMO. It's a costume, not the whole game. They need to get it down into impulse territory where I think "I'll skip Starbucks a couple days" not "Do I want a new videogame or not"
