[The Future - An Open Letter from the Homecoming Team]

Any thing looking to be done about the epidemic of people doing DFB (Death from below)? I know some people are looking for quick levels. but when LFG chat is nothing but DFB LFM call outs. its a little bit annoying. (seeing this consistently on Everlasting)

 

Its even a little concerning the few times I did it, the groups I was in had at least 1 - 3 level 50+veterancy ( Task forces are wonderfull, so are strikes. would love to see more people wanting to do those to work on merits sets...)

 

This is the problem with keeping AE nerfed, not because it is actually causing a problem but because you feel it's better that people play different content. It empowers others to endlessly complain that people aren't doing the content that they want them to do - and something must be done about it!

 

And I can assure you, nerfing DFB will not fix anything. People will find something else efficient to do and the same people will complain just as much about that.

 

 

I do not see "but I want them to do something else!" as valid justification for nerfing content. Not at all.

[Homecoming Server Update: Moves, XP, and EU!]

Regular Maintenance Schedule

After our migration to OVH, we will be establishing 3 regular maintenance windows in order to give you a more predictable downtime warning.

 

Our schedule will be 12:00 PM - 2 PM UTC every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. This schedule may change over time, and will almost certainly shift during Summer Time.

 

Our downtime will rarely fill this entire window, and we may not need to go down during every window, but we're reserving those slots for any maintenance that may be needed.

 

Please note that emergency maintenance may still need to occur at short notice.

 

Would be nice if these could be pulled back by a day.

 

Mon, Wed & Fri would mean that we would not lose access to the server during the weekend at midday (I'm in the UK).

 

That said, not sure if Sat was chosen for a reason (e.g. higher loads Friday - Sunday require a maintenance window in there).

 

 

All in all, great changes though. :)
