All Worlds Emergency Maintenance (May 14)

At the following time, we will be performing FINAL FANTASY XI maintenance on all worlds. During this period, FINAL FANTASY XI will be unavailable.

Maintenance operations will delete any reservations for Pankration matches and Maze Tabulae registered to NPC Duplidoc for Moblin Maze Mongers. Players who are scheduled to participate in Pankration matches, those who will enter Assault, Salvage or Einherjar areas, or those who will participate in Dynamis or Limbus at the time of the maintenance, we ask that you please wait until maintenance is complete before engaging in these activities. Please note that we cannot replace items that are lost during the maintenance process.

Thank you for your understanding and patience.

* The World Transfer Service will be unavailable starting 30 minutes before the maintenance. Please wait until after the maintenance is completed before attempting to use these services.

Here we go again!

I think they are trying fix the bug that caused the crashed that started with the nerf that was done to fix the error they made when they applied the patch that updated the game.

Perhaps SE'll die.

Quit complaining. Ive plaied this game for 5 years and we barelly have any down time as of lately. It could be worse, we could be down a lot more. For a game this large there are going to be mistakes, not everyone is perfect like some of you think you are. Its only 2 hours go eat lunch or something.

Yeah, because we barely have updates as of lately.

I don't mind all the short maintenances, but do they have to always be during the same time frame? Mix it up a bit at least so the same people are always getting screwed out of events. This is the second week in a row I'll miss an Einherjar run because of maintenance.

I don't mind the updates. It forces me to actually do something productive. I've played too many games that never get updated ever.

But this one may be in response to certain BCNMs being affected by the Kupowers update (notably, slimes in Royal Jelly having Quickening effect)

I would obviously much prefer they fix problems rather than leave them linger but seriously since ACP the people working on the game seem to be totally inept, maybe they moved all the team off and took on new people but they don't seem to be doing a very good job at all lately. For the server to have to be taken down the mass amount of times it has over and over since a rather small update it's almost hilarious, FFXI was always very stable, maintenances were taken seriously and were very well done but lately thats gone to pot. No possible way the game should be taken down again like this over and over and over, they are just being sloppy now.

Whoever worked on the game in past years would of never had it like this, they used to be a lot more professional about it. I have totally lost count how many times the server has been taken down since ACP.

Now I wonder where you got that from?

The only annoying thing about updates for me is the price of ZNM pops...have 2 Sarameya seal sets...finally got them down to 6400zeni this morning, shoulda just bought them. Now they'll be over 9000.....

That dropped the man into the pan, the trap is set here comes the net!

Mousetrap!
