Scheduled Maintenance: Fri. Sept. 9th, 2011 5-9am EST

We'll require downtime tomorrow to run some necessary systems maintenance. During this time, all services are going down between 5:00 and 9:00 am EST. Following a short validation period after completion, we'll begin bringing the rest of our services back online.

I do not suspect this maintenance period to last more than 4 hours. If there is any indication otherwise, you will all be informed as soon as we can offer a better estimate.

Regards,

So.. It's now 11AM EST, 2 hours after your expected completion time.

Why aren't there any updates? This is reminding me of the whole fiasco a couple months ago...

Wow, I just say wow ... that you cant keep your own timeschedule. S2 be careful about saying one thing and doing something else. If you say that it'll be up at 9am EST then it better is or people will start going elsewhere. Remember that you're not the only fish in the ocean!

S2 is really rude.
I'm not a Riot fan, and prefer HoN over LoL.
BUT Riot gives out ALWAYS free coins after their servers are down for a longer time than planned.
S2 did that just 1 time, this was when the Dos attacks occured. But they still have so much problems, and also lost match stats..
I expect a compensation at least...

Seems almost like a joke to me: in order to do maintenance, paying players won't be able to play for several hours? Really?

You need to rethink your treatment of your playerbase and your business model, S2. It's a shame, cause you've delivered a great product, but as of the last several months of severe fuckups, I fear you'll see 80% of your playerbase heading over to DOTA 2 once it's out...

Shame on S2. All it took was some updates on what was happening, why was it taking longer than usual? What were you doing about it? What is the new ETA?

So simple.

I think S2 has to make some rearrangements in it's stuff before it's too late...

This fucking piece of shit company deserves what's coming their way when DotA 2 is released. You treat your customers like garbage, you show no respect whatsoever for the people who pay to keep this failboat afloat. It is no wonder LoL has 1m players while the highlight of this failure is 50,000 players. You had your chance with this unbalance ripoff. Now step aside for the REAL DotA. S2 is a failure worse than Funcom.

so ive stayed up 10 hours for what exactly =L
this is bs

If any admins see this, is it hard to ask your developers an **upper bound** on the amount of time before servers are back up?

ceiling( number_of_bugs_in_jira * average_time_to_fix_production_bugs * average_build_time * time_to_run_unit_tests)

UPDATES, THATS IT.
1) HoN is way too UNBALANCED
2) Service is, well...
3) HoN is a piece of commercial crap designed to milk its customers for those 'early releases etc.'
DotA 2 is going to show these mothafckers how to manage gamerbase

I just find it hard to believe noone in s2games has the sense to ask them not to do maintenance on the game on friday/sat. WHY not do it on mondays? and yeah right from 5-9am EST...
Hopefully dota2 beta will start soon and rid us from this new hon...
I bet dota2 in beta will have less downtime than this shit.

Anonymous said...

Uuh.. well down.. still down. Unable to fix it? Or unwilling?

If S2 was a service provider, like lets say, system administration, they'd all be fired long ago.

How about maintenance planning? Backup systems? Redundancy? ... this used to be a fun, easy going game, why did you have to break it? Really that scared of dota2?

Hon isnt UNBALANCED its a part of the game that the heroes have different abilitys and are strong against one and less against others. Ofcourse they are heroes you might be think they are op but normaly this a hard to play heroes with a player who can play them.....
