Forgot someone? xD

 

7 days is not much, so.. Awesome job guys..

 

yes tis time we will have the time to test everything before we again do any bugged shitty release ever again

 

so from todaty till the 18/19 All HB server will be offline?

 

to the idiots posting "oh noes! use the ptr" ...

you have no idea what an offset is. haha. the terrain still works - but its everything else

Its like saying "hey my brand new 2011 camaro is just like my 1969 camaro" ... you're an idiot

 

Someone didnt read the thread properly! Servers go down on Thursday after EU servers are down

 

This is the only right thing to do. I'm happy as long as the bot works as it should. Take your time. GL Devs

 

someone else didn't read it properly either i think. tommorrow is tuesday. the next day is wednesday. but thanks for playing!

at the end of the downtime the bot will be perfect in every way. just like it is now.

 

will we still be able to use hb1 when it comes out? because i really dont like the later version of hb

 

HB1 has its place in our future

 

This is the kinda shit I love to hear. Thanks, big boy.

Also, I think it was Liquidator (?) suggesting that HB staff performs testing on the PTR to avoid these sort of downtimes. I understand, and agree with the way the functionality of the game is, they can get in there and test certain things that are changing... and I'm sure some testing has already been done. However, bare in mind that until the actual patch comes to live servers, they do not know exactly what is changing with the live version of WoW. My point is, what if all the changed content was on the PTR, and HB staff coded based on that... and then Blizzard threw in an updated warden in the live release, where there was none in the PTR version? Rather them take the time to polish up, based on what's released, then solely going off of what's on the PTR and we get surprised.

 

The thing is the devs have been making use of the PTR server and have seen what is changing that will effect the bot. They have already found a workaround for the new security measures but it will take a while for them to implement them all. Plus they have to update the basics CCs that are with the bot so that they all work again too. We also do not know if the release will change anything then was on the PTR so they have to make sure there also.

 

Thanks guys for all the hard work and great support fot GB/HB 7 days is nothing.

 

If I get it right, it will only be 5 days for EU, right?

Because if US patch comes out tuesday and that takes seven days, EU will be able to bot until thursday ..

Did I get anything wrong, or are the servers not coming online before thursday the 21th of october?

 

If you're a poor assed college student like me, 7-days is a shit load. And every single penny you spend is a penny you most likely thought of not spending. I have a year long subscription, and to be honest I've had a lot of times with this thing [bot] where I get more downtime than up time. Could just be my luck. But that being said, I am grateful for the downtime. I should probably bold that for the people who just skim and tear me a new one. Again, I am grateful for the downtime. Thanks for taking care of us <3

 

@LiquidAtoR

make it better! i think 7 Days is not much when I see all the changes

 

well im impressed your so serviceminded at honorbuddy.com, other ones would prolly just put the auth down and dont say a shit!!

Goodluck guys and thx for giving this information!

 

Hmm were told from Hawker that HB1 wont be supported after the patch (or maybe it was cata, i cant remember) yet you say HB1 has it's place in our future? can we get a genuine answer if HB1 will carry on being supported or if it's going to be trashed?

 

Will those of us without lifetime subscriptions see some form of reimbursement? 7 days is a long time.

 

You guys deliver a superior product. I'm happy to wait a week for you to do your magic. Gives me some time to figure out the new system for my non bot account.
