there is no typical down time. everytime is different. its the frequency of this sh** that is getting old really fast
Servers went down? Srry to miss that, was too busy running missions ... in the game.
I'm going to assume that it's a massive increase in server traffic due to new/returning players seeing all the articles about DW2 and Beyond Ch 4, coming back in a large wave and overloading things. Which is a great reason for servers to struggle as it means the game is thriving.
Not to mention: Major update released, all kinds of new stuff happening, things inevitably break in some way. For example: persistant deep core mining. If a player(1 dude) blows up a roid, all of a sudden, that single exploded roid has to exist for EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE, ALL AT ONCE. Lots of new communication involved with making that kind of persistence work in a system that wasn't explicitly designed for it.
They're aware of the problems and have already issued a patch so soon after returning to work from the holidays.
Hang in there, things will get worked out and you'll be back to complaining about space legs in no time

way to guilt me lol, im not so worried about space legs to be honest. im in no hurry for em. I dont mind waiting a little bit for the next update if it gives them breathing room to address some performance and bug fixes. for example the reports of memory leaks since this update was put out.
or maybe reducing the dust cloud effect from the asteroids.
on a side note the night vision scanner is the best thing they put in the game hands down
