About server reset for maintenance
Tue, 04/24/2012 - 05:36
Hello, this is my first post ever in this forum
I've just came to feedback on regular maintenace server reset, which has been troubling me for past few months since I started playing the game
I live in east Australia region (and I think I'm in NA server) where reset usually happens around 10:00pm.
This time I would most likely be studying, however If I'm free I would be spending my precious mist for a full arcade run
Even if I start the game as early as 7:30, I can't get through the full run if I were doing jelly run. (thats when I started playing from missions rather then arcade)
Today, I was on my very first journey to RT, and I have saved up lots of mist and CE for it.
yep I started at 7:30, and it seems it wasn't quite enough to finish the whole run as the server disconnected just before RT was defeated (yep we were facing the third wave were like lots of rocket falls and everyone like dies immediately)
Then I came to conclusion that I should address this to the people who are responisible maintaining this game
I believe 10:00pm is when a lot of people would be playing the game
Its at night, if you are not in IB school, you have probably finished your hwk and will be playing, as your relaxation, or in regular gaming pattern.
I do not demand change, however I request consideration of some inconvenience caused by frequent server resets which maybe affecting those who are living in similar timezone as I. 10pm is really a vague time to end the day for me.
Although it is soley, based on my perspective ways of knowing under area of my personal experiences and expectations, although I thought I should just mention it here.

Same thing happens with me,
Same thing happens with me, but at a different time, and in another time zone. :/

This reply is now moving towards suggestions, but
why not, with the multiple servers with independent reset times, bring the current state of the level to another server? Could use a separate temporary server to hold the level until the server is back up or the party progresses/finishes/leaves.
I mean, going solo in current level state is already technically possible.

A wild Danizpsycho appears!
I would like to address a couple of concerns here.
1- you say you start at 7:30 and can't finish a Jelly run before 10pm? I'm sorry, but if you're spending over an hour doing the Royal jelly mission, you're either doing it with nothing but proto bomb, or you're doing it totally wrong.
2- I live in the UK, and the server reboots at 1pm for me, which is smack in the middle of my lunch time. Firestorm runs take me just under half an hour, so I barely manage to kill duke in time, but I just /shrug and do it anyway. You get a 90-minute warning before the reboot, so just plan ahead.
Seriously, if you can't do a run in 2 hours, you're doing it wrong.

New server
After the server reboots, how long will it take to actually start up again?

Necromancers, necromancers everywhere.
Please don't necro, try to look at the date of the OP and the last posts. This thread is almost a year old. D:
It's a world wide game. And all servers are linked together.No matter how hard you try, someone will suffer somewhere with this setup. At least it's constant and they dont change the time every day.
The best solution would be multiple independeant servers, each with her own restart times. But things get compicated with that.
