EVE Online News - The "Downtime Sucks" Live Chat

Posted by Laura Genender on Dec 04, 2007  | 8 comments in our forums

On Tuesday night at 9pm EST (2:00 GMT) the EVE servers will be brought down for 24 hours while they add the Trinity update.

Downtime sucks, even if it's for a good reason.  And if you're wondering what to do while the universe is closed, come stop by the MMORPG.com Live Chat to hang out with friends, plot the downfall of your enemies, moon over the Trinity graphics, and gripe about downtime. Imaginary punch and pie will be available.

Event starts at 9pm EST (2:00 GMT) and goes until CONCORD breaks us up.  Users can connect via our Live Chat javaclient or via any IRC client, to server irc.coldfront.net port 6667.  The chat will take place in #mmorpg.

You know thats actually an awesome idea, if only people would commit to it.  Reminds me a lot of the mass emails you'd get asking people not to buy gas on a certain to prove a point to the oil companies.  Sounds good at first but getting others to follow along just was to difficult.

One NIght Stand...

It's a great idea.  Besides, it's also how I got 4-5 of my guildies from DDO to start playing EVE.  So far 3 have said they have bought or are going to buy and subscribe to the game and I suspect more will follow...    :)

I just wish they did their downtime slightly later, 2am = main play time for me. And 1 hour break is just a pain.
