Dear players,
Today DUST 514 will go offline for an extended period of time starting from 8:00 GMT. Server is expected to come back up at 13:50 GMT. Today we are deploying major EVE Online expansion: Odyssey.
We will post about any further developments in this thread.
Thank you for your patience and understanding. |

is there any chance of getting another batch of respecs processed during this downtime? or is this an all-hands-on EVE patch? not sure if DUST crews have to do anything for EVE deployments, so figured id ask the question |

Please tell us if we will, knowing will allow us to get better prepared and show those EVE Naysayers what DUST 514 is capable of. |

Eve stays down for when only DUST gets an update  Doesn't mean both sides always get an update.

You might not cry over this if they do something for everyone for the problems this week. Go cap out in a day. You'll be better off. If you can't Cap in a day sounds like a personal problem. So QQ and get over it |

Did CCP really only give Dust players 1 hour 18 minutes notice that they were going to extend downtime in this way?
Seriously, I expected the downtime to mirror Eve's, but when there was nothing in the forums last night at just before midnight I sort of hoped.... clearly not!
CCP - you guys really do need to work on your communications skills. For years Eve players have been telling you this, and now that you're venturing into the console market, you simpy can't afford to make basic errors like this.
On a lighter note - I am loving Dust 514, although it's still really only a Beta considering the number of bugs and amount of balancing needed, but it clearly has huge potential, so keep working hard at it. |

they can get away with it 'SOMETIMES' because many US players are at work or going to school, most euro players with a day job are also at work, the only crowd who usually gets hit by downtime are the pacific players(regular downtime was at like 6pm okinawa-time) and people who work 2nd or 3rd shifts, which i cant imagine being a major demographic of online communities
though yes, even just a heads up, 'Odyssey deployment tommorow, expect extended downtime, exact times to be decided' would generally be less of a frustration.
though if you look at ANY of the other 'extended downtime' announcements, almost all of them are only 2-4 hours prior. kind of frustrating when ive been waiting for news of a respec, and i dont normally get to read the announcements till after its happened |

For shame CCP, this is highly disrespectful and totally douchey.
As a service provider, it is basic etiquette to give a minimum of 24hrs notice to such a planned event.
I, like many, was expecting to play DUST while waiting for EVE to patch.
I could had made other plans.
Treat us better.

Is there some reason why this update had to start 3 hours before the regular DT?
The players are already a day short due to all of Sunday being down, then you cut the server time short by 3 hours the day after you get the servers running again? I still haven't capped yet, and still haven't met the Templar quota.
Now due to this, I am not going to make my cap by tomorrow night, and I also missed out on the Templar rewards all because of some EVE update which for some strange reason, had to start 3 hours before the regular DT.

The reason the DT starts 3 hours before normal is so that they can start the Odyssey deployment first thing in the morning, and if they have any problems (I'm being kind there CCP, I didn't say when!), the normal working day in Iceland still has plenty of time left for them to fix any issues before most of America wakes up and wants to patch Eve and play.
I, like you, was hoping to play Dust while Eve patched, although I sort of knew in the back of my mind that it wouldn't be so and that CCP had simply forgotten to warn the Dust playerbase.
I haven't capped yet either, and it is even more strange since the Templar event was put back a day and CCP's post said that the event would run to DT on the 4th - surely they knew that they were deploying Odyssey that day???
The mind boggles at the lack of internal communication, let alone the poor level of communication to the player base.
Yet, here I am - playing and blogging about Eve, playing and starting to blog about Dust, and almost certainly about to buy a Veteran's pack on Dust when my current implants run out. |

you gotta keep in mind their work shifts, if they started at 1100 and spent the following 5 hours launching, it would be close to regular close of business and the main programmers(which i assume all work the first shift) would end up spending overtime to fix any unexpected *FEATURES* that crop up with the launch. it makes sense why they would do it this way.
and if you were relying on the last 3 hours of a 72hour event to acquire your rewards, i am liable to blame operator error rather than producer or product defect. |

Yup any announcements on when we may be getting those 5 Dropsuit skins and tanks? You guys already seem to have the concept art done for them? Are they far away? Do we really have to wait two months to get them and a new graphics overhaul? |

nobody until they get the economies linked, and then eventually open up industry. from the econ lecture at fanfest, it looks like meaningful EVE-DUST connection is AGES away. |

Really? What part of "Dust 514 plays on the same servers as Eve Online." don't some of you people understand? They have to take the servers down to patch Eve so, naturally, Dust will be down as well.
I'm going to have to put this faux pas down to ignorance of how the system works. Otherwise I'm going to think very unkind things about some of the posters. LOL  |
