Looking at many of the posts in this forum you would think that none of them have ever played an MMO before. Name one MMO that has had an updated that has not had bugs or that has not had to be patched. I certainly can't think of any.

Of course, the "haters" have to have something to point at so go ahead. If it makes you happy just hate all you want. The rest of the sane world will just pat you on the head and be on our way.

It deleted them or broke their accessability?  How the hell would you know, are you part of the team that actually knows what has and is happening with the code?

I know 2 things.

Guild banks are gone

And the people who spent 600k on them haven't gotten the money back

Maybe they should change the title to "major unscheduled server maintainence"

wonder if i'll get a free month being a subscriber without a lvl 50?

Yes, things vanished, Yes they will be returned after the maintance.

Except players who unsubbed due to 1.2 being a total ****fest. I'm afraid they vanished from SWTOR universe forever.

You understand what was implied both in your title and the post you linked you op to.

Look at my post history..I've been a HUGE critic of ToR and Bioware..HUGE.  That said  1.2 was a step in the right direction. Yes it came way late, Yes it has some problems but it has made the game better.  the emergency maintance seems like a pretty small ordeal to me and fairly common after a large patch.

Sorry but what large patch? These are the notes for patch 1.2a, the patch that broke the game.

If this has happened yesterday, when they implemented the actual content patch, then I would give them more slack but the fact is they managed to break the game implementing a bug fix. It's utterly pathetic that a multimillion dollar can't implement a non-essential bug fix without bringing all the servers down. It's not like they were hotfixing some deep, gamebreaking bug.

Oh and I understand what was implied in the title and I see nothing wrong with it.

Rollback (Verb): Restore (a database) to a previously defined state.

Since the servers were temporarily restored to their pre-1.2 state they were, by definition, rolledback. Now that the servers are down and not set to pre-1.2 the term does not apply anymore and hence why MikeB changed the title.

Oh because they tested the whole patch so well that they needed another maintenance. Yup, only good decisions. Your logic is .... lol

    Some reading comprehension would help you here.  The patch (1.2a) AFTER the big patch (1.2) messed things up, not the big patch.  What I was directly addressing was that testing showed them that Ranked WZs were not working as intended and they decided that rather than intentionally releasing broken crap like SOE, they would put off the Ranked WZs.  Then along comes the little patch that messed with one single feature of the game that it was not even intended to touch.  Obviously, the little patch was not tested enough, but my previous post was about the WZs not being in 1.2, not the mess 1.2a made.  Sorry you did not understand that.

    As complicated as the programing is, I am surprised it does not happen a lot more often than it does in most games.

What's the big deal, so they left out a planet or two. No biggie! After all Alderann was wiped out, BW is already +1

Yo dawg i heard you like patches, so we patched your patched that patched your patched because we broken the patch that patched the patch

Well shit happens. You can't really expect a patch that huge (and subsequent small patch to correct some things) without there being some issues yeah? I remember playing WoW and sometimes patches would break the game for a couple days. 

So...the world is not ending, the sky is not falling. Just relax.

Free to play by the end of the year. I'm off down the bookmakers to put £10 on it.

Maybe the idea all along was to raise a quick, buttload of cash and do a leveraged buyout of orange juice futures from Belize. And then outsource the game to three guys named Peggy who live on Pirate Island. I'm playing it safe and changing to grape juice.

    I'm not sure if you are joking or actually wearing the biggest tinfoil hat I have EVER seen.

Wow, I have never had anyone take me seriously before. My wife warned me that could happen,even with me. Maybe this will clarify things, "Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean someone isn't really trying to kill you". There. By the way, you aren't a cop are you?

Thank you.  The troll army was in full attack.

Lol wat? I don't think anyone here actually thought the items were permanently gone. Almost every comment is about BioWare's inability to put a patch in without breaking the game and they still apply 100%.

Right - your headline was 'patch 1.2 rollback' Which is entirely misleading and a hyperbole to the extreme.  

Lol, get back to your desk at BW and fix the glitch already!

Twice in two days I am speechless, no need for clever comments, BW have patched half of 1.2 back out, just WoW

Yep, for WoW its always been normal for the servers to go back down 1 hour the servers come back up, after a couple o hours delay, that said I certainly dont miss the servers going down for an emergency patch and roling restarts 4-6 times betwine tuesday and friday.

But yeah.. while I agree its anoying its no different then any mmo out there, it happens.

Quit trying to project Biowares failures onto Blizzard.

And as for saying "B-b-but WoW had that happen!"

Guess what.

WoW lost 2 million subs last year. You're REALLY not making a good case for yourself

Must have been some pretty nastty bugs because they are actually rolling back parts of patch 1.2 and having to rebuild some areas of the game.    They are now saying that the servers will be down until the situation is resolved.

Incoming free time for all - I see this in your future if you play SWTOR.
