Wonder how long they'll keep this up....

Ive been checking throughout the day and they are still down. I would have to agree that its been a long time but i think for me any way its been almost 24 hours now. Its almost 4:30 pm my time and it started messing up at about 5pm. Im glad this doesnt happen very often. Im trying to be patient, and i understand that they are working on this, that it could take awhile, but isnt this going a bit long for down time and repairs.

Are you kidding me? This happens everytime they have done a maintenance...just not to this extent.

Just got off the phone with Tech support..

They said that it possibly might be up and running functional by this afternoon or evening..(California Time)

I asked what happened.. She said that when they were doing thier scheduled Maintence and updates it didn't go as planned, and didn't finish correctly.
I asked about issuing credits...she said that once the game is fixed and up and running, depending on how long..that might be a possibility.

I asked her what happens if you lost things..such as me leveling up to notoriety 50 before the crash, and then signing on this morning and being a level 49.
She said don't worry about anything until the game is fixed and running.. if anyone has lost anything..She is pretty sure Disney would work with the people that lost stuff and try to get it back for them.

So that is it..

A little shred of light on a dark day in the caribbean perhaps.

You think they'd at least notify people and tell us when they expect to have it up and ready. There's going to be a lot of angry customers. =/

Tiberius Fireskull · #**128** 02-13-2011, 01:22 AM

The thing is, that they don't know when they will be done. They have a MASSIVE bug on their hands, and it looks like a little reset won't squash it. I honestly wouldn't be too shocked if POTCO was closed down for tomorrow as well, all though I hope it isn't...

The Stealthy Pirate · #**129** 02-13-2011, 01:22 AM

sigh... i hope they fix this...

_kaytay_ · #**130** 02-13-2011, 01:36 AM

I'm an angry customer and i'm not even paying yet but I did just upgrade for a free month today and now the day is wasted. It's 6:28 p.m. central time here and by the time they get it fixed i'll be in bed if my child lets me.

Never seen a matienece THIS long before (except when they were changing the Beta 1 phase to Beta 2...)
However, I say everyone who has test meets up on it :P
Remember, programming is VERY tough, and this is the biggest bug POTCO has faced.
Remeber, patience!

There isn't much we can do but wait this thing out. Bugging the tech support people won't make the process speed up. And everyone is blaming the removal of the servers, which I can sort of agree on. But everyone is also saying that Disney did it for no reason. That is totally not true. Maybe they couldn't support the servers anymore. They didn't just take them away because they felt like it. Keeping a game like this together is harder work then it sounds. Back at the offices where pirates is run, I assure you, every person in there is trying to fix this terrible bug.

So for the past couple of days, Pirates has been reseted over and over. I was gonna buy membership today or tomorrow but no Im wondering what will happen If they decide to reset it to right before I got my membership. That will mean I loose my membership and i wasted money

Will pirates be givving it back after its been fixed. Or is it best to wait till this has been fixed?

Captain Celtics · #**134** 02-13-2011, 02:16 AM

Making a transaction with disney wouldn't be erased by them resetting the game servers.

Captain Will Cannonfury · #**135** 02-13-2011, 02:53 AM

I don't know about that Solo because I just got access yesterday and when my pirate like restarted what it did on Friday Night I still had my Unlimited Access. Or if that happens to you then contact Disney.
