Experience tells me no online game should ever do major updates/patches on a Friday/Saturday. Things have a tendency to go wrong no matter how much testing you do and you end up having to pull more overtime over the weekend to fix it. End result tired staff who are more prone to making mistakes and annoy the hell out of us the paying gamers.
I went through about a year of telling Digital Extremes the exact same thing with Warframe. So FD, patching is best done at beginning of the week or midweek if you have to. Then you have two too three days to fix bugs/exploits that never show up till release, if not then we the gamers try to patch and play, then rant on the forum as the game is down/broken.
But that advice is moot now as the horse is already in a burger some where by this time. But in future please FD, think before you push an update out after Wednesday.
