Server Shutdown - Zarathustra - 02-14-2005
Thunderhorn is having trouble tonight, but I found this interesting and snapped a screenshot (black box placed over some kid's profanity). Shortly afterwards, the message "[Server] Shutdown Cancelled" appeared... and then the server went down once more.
Anyone else notice messages like this ingame? It's the first time I've seen anything like it.

Yes, at the end of the European Beta; only that time, it was "shutdown in 0:15", i.e. 15 seconds. ;-)
And I was running away from a Felguard at the time.

Quite often actually, in the US beta. they usually gave us only 5 minutes.
Got it once when My party reached van cleef after 3 grueling hours. they shut down the server right as we started fighting him :/
Respawning all alone right in front of him when the server came back up wasn't very nice either. :rolleyes:

If you're ever on before the weekly maintenance, these messages come on.
They used to tick every 15 seconds for 15 minutes. Now when there's weekly maintenance they tick every minute until the last few minutes, when it will switch to 15 seconds.
It was pretty annoying to have the 15 second ticks start at 15 minutes.
