    maintenance?

    maintenance in my understanding is something regular, in most games once a week or so.
    seeing that ubisoft are calling these break downs of services "maintenance" i guess we can expect this every hour or so when game goes live, or do ubisoft have no clue what maintenance is?
    would just like a clarification.

    According to the important notes about the beta, you may be unable to access full content during this open beta. Maintenance may also occur during this period.

    You need to understand that this is a beta, The whole reason we are testing the game now is so they can make sure the things that are occurring now, don't happen once the game goes live. I'm fine with them taking down the servers to fix issues. If it means making the game better in the long run, then we all win in the end.

    So think about that before you all go screaming foul.

    Some years ago I WORKED(!!!!) as a Beta-Tester and got some bucks for this job. Nowadays every Demo is called Beta-Test. And if a Demo isn't running well, I might think I spend my money elsewhere.

    its not a Beta though, its a demo.
    at best you could call it a server stress test.
    a Beta test would be organized months ahead of a games release to test and find recurring faults. this 'open beta' comes just weeks before the game is released. they will not have enough time to make changes should a issue be discovered before the game is released

    This is really not true anymore, not sure why people keep thinking this.

    people keep thinking this because they keep calling it Beta instead of making up a new word for what they are doing... who's fault is that.
