    Server Maintenance

    So why does Ubisoft need 3hrs of maintenance every week?, I worked for a Global Bank and we never shut down the server farm yet U is oft feels they have to do it each week, let’s hope it stays at 3 and not like last week’s fiasco

    Obviously your Global bank doesn't host several different game brands on their server farm
    And most likely the GB does backups after work ends right?

    Ahhh, the memories.

    All that time ago when I would get up on a day off and not be able to play because of the unbelievable weekly maintenance in a game that has more maintenance in a month than most games have in a lifetime.

    And here we are again, most of my life has changed and yet having returned less than 2 weeks ago it's as if I have never been away. The more things change the more they stay the same.

    Division 2 - sorry, it isn't convenient for you to play this game when you want to, come back when we say you can.

    It's the problem with games-as-a-service.

    No service is given to the customer, it's all for the developer that avoids pirate copies being sold, only to find out they have to give away their own game for 3$ because nobody wants to buy it...

    GaaS is the a plague for the gaming industry, right after the cancer of mobile games.

    Nah, it’s only a Major high street bank with trading platforms, etc on a global basis with 7 global server farms, and yes backups are done but the servers are never taken down
