I’m chill mate, simply flabbergasted at the total lack of organisation.
I mean, it’s obvious, after the update when the game was live it turned out that something is not working correctly, so they are now restarting, it’s annoying but can’t be predicted (unless they get some better ways of testing what they’re doing, or improve servers so it doesn’t need to take so long every time)
Welcome to online games? specially still this close to after launch.
Atleast they could write the proper timezone for EU… Its CEST not CET. EU second citizens needs to end.
They should’ve at least put a big warning, this is inexcusable.
I logged on, asked a friend if he wants to do an Oreha run and he told me there’s a maintenance in 25 minutes.
Put the fking warning message on permanently, if he didn’t tell me, I would’ve lost my weekly abyss entrance.
Doubt its intentional, people write PST when its supposed to be PDT all the time.
Don’t know why they aren’t running the banner like they have for other maintenances and important info.
Well it did take three attempts to fix the DST problem. So maybe I shouldn’t be so surprised they cock up their own update.
TBF on DST they never had to deal with it before.
RU, JP, and KR don’t have DST.
With these guys, one cannot have enough maintenance. And, of course, no compensation for a bit of paid Crystalline Aura lost during unplanned maintenance. Is this the new norm?
Sorry mate, that’s piss poor excuse. AGS were perfectly aware of DST. It’s inconceivable that no one from AGS thought ahead of time DST could be a problem.
AGS isn’t developing the game SGR probably though their fix would work, when it didn’t they tried again and got the server clocks right but the timers were off, second time they buggered everything, third time they fixed it.
It’s not easy to shoehorn something as major as dst into something that never had it.
I had briefly considered buying Crystalline Aura, but I’m now disinclined to give AGS money for their incompetence, lack of transparency and lack of communication. Love the game, hate the publisher.
I know its April fools or almost there but you dont gotta be like that lol
Their only goal was to milk the whales, why worry about DST that happened nearly two months after the release.
You don’t have to pay real money for it - buy it with crystals you purchase with gold (doesn’t even have to be every month, just when you need it most). CA does provide some QoL features you can easily get addicted to, like repairing your equipment in dungeons.
I only mentioned the DST debacle as an example.
If AGS ever get their shit together with a regular, reliable maintenance schedule I may reconsider.
I mean to be fair Crystalline Aura based on the current exchange rate in at least NA East which is roughly 95gems:around 360-420 gold, 420 gems for 1 month of CA roughly translates to 1.6k-18.k gold per month which is really not that much for anyone currently in T3 zone.
If only the game had been running well already for 3 years elsewhere…oh nm
