Sapience took to the forums to announce some downtime on Monday Oct 7th
All Turbine Game servers, forums, and myaccount.turbine.com will be unavailable on Monday October 7, 2013 from 5:00AM Eastern Time (-4 GMT) until 12:00PM Eastern Time (-4 GMT) for scheduled maintenance.
Sounds like this is back-end standard server type maintenance. So no updates or patch notes.
So, what to do during this downtime, here are few things you can consider
- Get caught up on the LOTRO player news podcast! http://lotroplayers.mymiddleearth.com/category/podcasts/lotro-players-news/
- Bid on some auctions for our fellowship walk and help support Child’s Play! http://lotroplayers.mymiddleearth.com/2013/09/25/live-auctions/
- Watch The Battle Of Helm’s Deep with a twist.. (Spoiler Alert – It’s Legos!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WflM7m343k
How will you spend your downtime??
I just now realized this is a 7 hour downtime. That is assuming everything goes to plan. I would imagine this is some prep work for Helm’s Deep but I guess you never really know.
yep, i just noticed it too, won’t be playing if anything goes wrong this today…
I believe they are addressing issues that have been occurring, where some landscape features and models are not loading properly.
