No Maintenance My Ass, Who Started That Rumor?

[Indica]

Was playing, DC and could not get back on. I even reset my router..lol

I heard several people saying there was no Maintenance tonight

[Angelo]

I was just about to grind a Saber to 8 too :[

The bar was halfway across and I got disconnected.

[str898mustang]

they shut them down waaaay to early

[Mikura]

I thought the same thing but obviously, someone dropped the ball on the information. I'm kinda pissed because I was hunting for Serafi boards and they're probably taking down the rappies now.

[Gunslinger-08]

I think people made the mistake of equating no updates to no maintenance.

do you lose the grinder or the grind?

[Miren]

Welcome to the internet, where you cant trust everything people said. =)

P.s. I was shocked too, maintenance usually starts @ 11:00, but it started one hour early

You forgot the part where people will state whatever they want to make people happy, so they bathe in the glory it causes. E-viagra basicly.

Emergency Maintenance :T See here (http://tinyurl.com/2uqz89) for info.

[MoNoMaTe_MoNkEy]

I know. Bad timing, ST. Bad timing.

No warning at that.

[beatrixkiddo]

Welcome to "there was an emergency maintenance" and "Soukosa bashes contributors some more".

[gambit04]

I'm sorry but I don't understand what he is saying

Read his sig. Did you really need to post just to say that?

[Apone]

Thats weird I got a warning...(360)

[Genoa]

I logged off about 30 minutes ago to get ready for bed, What good timing for me I suppose.
I also was quite bored of gambling, bought a Private Bar and the room accessory for it. Got a Yogga Mat, bought a few more decorations, changed my Jukebox.
My room's looking pretty good right now http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif

.... But yeah... that maintenance ... =/

[Dragwind]

Funny how we have to translate the JP 360 site to know about something that's concerning mostly english speaking players. (I could be wrong, forgive me I'm tired.)

thx for the help now it is so clear

[Skids]

XGP is just annoyed that this happen since he started a serious work on an alt of his today. Getting it to fortefighter today, new weapons, new armor, and slot items like solid power s. And he was hoping to do some serious leveling and pa leveling

[Sinue_v2]

It's an emergency maintenance to patch a supposed security loophole. If you want, they can just stop patching the game against attacks. Enjoy your stolen room decos, PMs zeroed, and/or stolen credit card info.

We still get to whine though, right?

[xgp]

some1 postwin its back plz and ty

[Kietrinia]

So it sounds like this happened:

Sonic Team Japan needs to patch a security glitch on the XBox360 servers.
They issue the warnings to the XBox360 users as per normal maintenance procedures.
ST Japan hits the off switch for the XBox360 servers to do their patch.
Shutting down of XBox360 servers also sends shut down command to PC/PS2 users.

I don't think the PC/PS2 servers were supposed to go down. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

[BluefullZeest]

any idea when the maintenance will be done?

I think as a community, we're obligated to whine. xD

[Sinue_v2]

We still get to whine though, right?

Of course, why else would we come here?

[Aviendha]

Maybe they just didn't bother warning you since nobody is actually on the PC/PS2 servers...

[McLaughlin]

It's been known since the Christmas Lobbies went up that they'd come down this week. Regardless of whether or not the maintenance started early, no one "dropped the ball." Well, except the people who assume everyone else dropped the ba-...

I'll be going to bed now.

[beatrixkiddo]

They were meant to come down on the 1st, actually. :/ According to the JP XBox site, anyway.

[McLaughlin]

Hang on a sec...

EDIT: All I can find is this (http://phantasystaruniverse.com/community_quests.php?item=20071218a), which only says that they'll be going up on the 1st. Nothing about the Christmas stuff coming down then.

I swear to God I read it somewhere though...

Yeah, I know what's going on now so that's good news. Sorry if I jumped to conclusions, just the maintenance caught me off guard and I was expecting the worst with the rappies.

[Nai_Calus]

It's not just a 360 issue, whatever it is, they took the JP PC/PS2 servers down as well - We had some warning first, though.

[xgp]

it may be some one hacked the jp suvres or or a bad glech was fand and it needed to be fixed lack a whay to clone weps or get infnet $ or someing ????????????????

[beatrixkiddo]

The site said a fraud issue, so... who knows. ST doesn't release too much info on security holes even after they've been fixed, not that I blame them.

[CelestialBlade]

It's only a couple hours of levelling/hunting you lost, there's plenty of Winter Break left.

Anyway, one thing I did want to discuss is the whole warning thing. I'm playing on PC, and it seems that some people are seeing the warning and others are not. What's up with this? I used to see the warning a long time ago, but I have not seen it for the past few maintenances. Did this just start happening with AoI?

[xgp]

i was jast spaqlating what hapaed thats all

[DraginHikari]

Hmm... must have been some situation to cause a sudden maintance like that.

[DuoXV]

they took down all the xmas stuff. and the servers r back up.

[beatrixkiddo]

Another update that crashed conditional search, no results for anything.

Are the lobbies New Years-y? I'd log on and check myself, but I don't have access to my Xbox right now.

nope u msut wait till newyears for that http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

[Rainu]

=P Could have sworn it was up a few days early last year, but I might be going crazy.

....there WAS a New Years event last year, right? *Checking for insanity*

[pikachief]

yes it changed while me and my friend were in teh middle of a run lol

we were like "wtf wat is this? what happened to Christmas!?"

then he went and bought a bunch of "flowers" to put in his room cuz no one knew that they also came out with special room decos with the lobbies http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_eek.gif

[Miren]

It looks like you can conditional search if the seller is logged in, I tried to find some common things and only 2 shows up and i also got that seller's card (logged in atm)

Is this new? is ST trying to update the shop to clear all those old account shop?

also, there will be no more chistmas rappy this year rite? since all the lobby is back to normal, just want a comfirm >.< (stupid ST never update their page)
oh and btw, the chistmas deco still in shop too @.@

[beatrixkiddo]

It's the same thing that happened last time they broke it. Anything in the shop before the update fails to show up. I suppose it could be a way of weeding out inactive shops, but... it's not very player friendly, since people who are active have to take each and every item OUT of their shop and then put it back IN, or else they won't show up on condition.

[pikachief]

yea what he said was "Your item will only show up in the list if u placed it in your shop after the maintenance. So you now must take everything out of your shop then put it back in" http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Thats crazy, what did they do? delete all the shop record in their database or something? why would they do that? This is really annoying for someone got 3+ shops to maintain and they need to do this everyweek...>.<

[Keely]

I just checked my shop character, however I didn't take any items out except the meseta I earned earlier. I went back on as my main and did the conditional search and my items were showing up.



<font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Keely on 2007-12-28 01:26 ]</font>

[Rescue]

I thought you just need to log in after the update for it to show up again.

[Yusaku_Kudou]

Somebody in a party said he wasn't able to glitch the machine gun the whole run and he kept trying. I hope they fixed it.

Unfortunately they haven't, kind of a mixed blessing for some.

[Xefi]

3 more days till new year. Btw, is there any new spawns for new year? if so, what do they drop? I forgot since it was a long time ago. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif


NVM, just check psupedia. There are no rare spawn for new year. :S

[Ralli_Maren]

I got a warning too.

Emergency maintenance scheduled on December 28 (Friday) 15:00-18:00

More maintenece tonight, or is that just Japanese time?

[Sexy_Raine]

Maintenance occurred earlier than usual. Instead of 0200 EST, it happened around 0100 EST. There was no announcement before it happened either.

[Rashiid]

Its gone?? Damn, I never even got to see a Rappy Noel this year http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif
