When was the edit on the OP? About the extension of the DT by 45 minuets? Just wondering how long it took to already extend it, as seems to happen with updates.

I think CCP need to either give us an ETA for longer than it should take them, which would then give us a nice surprise when we can log in earlier than we expected, or withhold on any ETA at all until they have a more accurate view.

Having said this though, I'm sure it's been covered before...

The edit was almost instantly after the original post I think, quite a while ago anyway, wasn't a recent thing. We're past the halfway point already, and still no more delays, so things are looking good... although I probably just jinxed it saying that.

Aye! I see hope for the reopening at 13:00! Fingers crossed, touch wood, all that jazz!

Also think I've made a stupid mistake, not sure when my skill queue ends... I hope it's filled...

they still need to update the message on the login screen unless they want the usual 'useless CCP' posts.

People who aren't used to patch-day downtime being extended really need to just stop playing the game.

Who said anyone isn't used to it? That comment alone has a very limited view of players... Those poor people who are new to the game should stop playing. Tut tut.

EDIT: I'd edit this to make it less of an attack on the quoted... but in all honesty, I think it deserves it.

Hi everyone,

Just a quick update on the progress of the extended downtime.

Tranquility is up in testing mode and we are working through a checklist to test the migration and ensure it is working as expected. So far we have not encountered any significant issues but be aware that downtime may be extended slightly if such things arise.

bring dust to PC, can shoot em on the ground on 1 monitor and use orbital bombardment on the other Big smile

Eve does not have a learning curve, its a learning cliff. Either learn to fly on the way down or its going to be a hard landing

In the real world, any such infrastructure update, be it hardware or software, always has gremlins no matter how well-planned it is. Big difference is that when a good plan is in place, there are ways and means of dealing with the gremlins. Really, I wish you guys all the best and I look forward to greeting our Dust bunny brothers.

Also, please bring DUST 514 to the PC platform. You guys have the code. Convince Sony to let this be so Bear

Sadly, Planetside 2 is not in the EVE universe, nor does it have, what I see as, the most enticing part about DUST - the interaction with EVE capsuleers.
