Thats an announcement for preload stuff. It will be split to 2 parts which will be made available for download at those 2 days.

Updated my previous post.

SEGA is not doing maintenance during these time periods, but it is possible that their servers could go temporarily offline. Please remember to finish any quest(s) you are doing before this time to avoid losing your progress if it happens mid-quest.

but it is possible that their servers could go temporarily offline.

No it's not. This is just a predownload for the files for the next update, the servers never went down for pre-downloads before, and there's nothing saying that it's going to start happening now.
Basically they're allowing us to download the files for the next update to a separate folder (usually called precede), the files won't be actually used by the game until the day of the update (September 4).

Woops! This is the problem with making these posts when in a rush at times. :P

Sorry about that~

Just a quick note to everyone:

SEGA JP has announced that this week they plan on having a split batch of pre-downloaded updates available for the next update. These files that are made available for download can be received for Tweaked users by going to the Orb Menu > Check for PSO2 Updates. Don't forget to re-install the English patches after the update.

You can see the times of these split updates below. Please note that these will both be covered by the next update topic made by me to avoid confusion, so any new updates made to the game will be made available for viewing through there. Also, if we have any issues with the patches post the next scheduled maintenance period, we will let you know of those in that thread as well.

Thanks~
