is this to 4.0? or just updates?

[cmnmitch]

Just updates. 4.0 was only recently just released, and I don't expect ANY private servers to have a half decent, not bugged to hell server up and running for atleast another 6 months to a year.

[Arroncroft]

I don't mean to whine, but..HOW MUCH LONGER?

[diogotomas]

I hope they fix the bug of the arena because I still do not earn arenapoints :S

The bat Halloween gift turns players chars into bats for 60 mins. There is an option to dismiss this effect, but it does not work. Sadly, Someone in the raid - VoA 25 - That I was running, was turning players to bats, that could not revert to their original form. Thereby forcing them to be useless until they were killed, for while in bat form the effect is that the player may not use any abilities.

Btw its been longer than 20 mins...

[Pathbull]

Is this why at 10pm last night I received the Login Server Is Down Message and I'm still getting that message?

[Regweld]

Let me elaborate a bit more. The bat gift item only works on players that are in parties. so its not so bad, but for fear, someone might invite you to a party just to turn you into a bat for 60 mins. Which in turn makes you waste a hearth ;30 more mins; to dalaren just to jump off the thing.

[Valserian]

yea some punk did it to my druid...shape shifting a few times gets rid of it so does mounting

[Regweld]

Actually mounting does not take off the form. Tho im not sure if flying mount has any difference. I was in Goldshire and someone invited me to a party and turned me D: So I mounted figuring that might solve it, but no, my ride was just a tiny thing floating under the bat that was my char.

The Login Server is Down!

[BlackDrake]

Is there anyone who might happen to know what's is happening on the redemption server right now?
It has been down for about an hour I guess.

I don't know. Maybe they're doing more changes... and we have to wait. We don't want to!

[Regweld]

The login server is down but i can still ping it....

[brianmin15]

Comon guys.. I mean is it really that hard?? It clearly says 5AM server time that is GMT-6.. It juz turned 5AM there 5 mins back and it says clearly its gonna take bout 20 mins so Im guessing worst case scenario is itll be down for another 30-40 mins... It says everything clearly..
And besides I doubt this is a purely for bug fixes.. I think it's mainly for the changes with the new updates or smthing else.. with maybe a lil fixes thrown in... so guess cyall in 40 mins Or maybe longar ima go and chill out !

[maoam93]

thats normal, never believe the estimated promised time, it will prolly take it 3x.

too bad its says 5AM SERVER TIME! and that was 1 hour and 13 minutes ago.. and since then the server is down! so it already took over one hour!

[predat0rshaman]

pls apply patcj 4.0!

[Regweld]

hehe.

It always seems that when a game server goes down they post saying that it will be down for an allotted time period, and that allotted time period always seems to be longer than what the post said the wait would be.

and i think its been down about 30 mins, i was in VoA 25 when it went down.
