If they would post on the forums first people would ask why they don't get a warning in game first, because that's obviously more important...

How difficult can it be to post to both at roughly the same time?

Maybe they should just do parallel information multi-threading and post on the forum the same time the message in game gets broadcast?

on a friday when everyone starts playing great idea, as long as new ships are involved then i am appeased (takes out bag of salt)

The forum should be first, with details of what the update is for.
Followed by in game notification for those who don't visit the forum.

I spent most of yesterday stocking up on MEFs while missions were actually offering them. I'm prepared for them to disappear again after this update. I wonder if they will?

In all fairness... my screen shot was taken 14 min before I posted it and now they have +/- 7 min to make the 30 min's

How about when i get the message in game, i click to go to the forums and i see something official posted just 2 minutes before the in game message? That must be really hard right whitey?

So, logged in, and saw this message. Ok then, guess I'll log out for a bit and check what is going on and when I can log back in...

Why is there no information in the news or patches section? Am I blind? Are the servers literally being restarted (i.e. five minutes downtime), or is there more?

Is it really that difficult to put this information out on the ED forum (where, you know, there's a section for this kind of stuff)?

To be clear... I can easily find something else to do for an hour or so. Or even a week or so. It would be nice to know this information, though. I don't even care what the update does...
