What do servers even do for this game? You have the log in servers i know. Than you have the game server how does that go to work? Its just for traffic like we move we send it to the server and the server move or char and send back the data? Or am i wrong? Would be nice if a real IT guys could help me out!
Well, restarts of servers usually are related to updates. Even if updates do not require a restart directly, it is periodically still a good practise to do so. In case an update causes issues during a restart, you can relatively easy verify which update it causes. If you wait too long with a restart so multiple rolling-updates have been pushed through, it may be difficult to figure out which one causes the issues and backups may have been overwritten with a faulty patch.
Besides, there may be more advantages, f. But this is pure speculation. Behavior which is cringe and hyperbolic. Maintenance is maintenance and is given when it is needed. That is that. I don't get the hate here. Unless they specify a reason, it's all guesswork from our side. Might be a technical issue that forces their hands. It might Karen from testing that's getting her hair done, so they have to postpone. We just don't know. What we do know, is that maintenance is sorely needed, because otherwise they wouldn't mess with raiding primetime.
Calm down people. Spend another hour doing something else. Watch another movie. Go walk your dog again. It's really not the end of the world - even for us raiders. The fact that it happens during general EU raid time to me hints that it can't be scheduled to any other time. We don't know what the reason is behind it, but it would be ridiculous to assume that the devs don't know that this is a bad time to take the servers down.
That then means that the devs would avoid scheduling a maintenance at that time if they could possibly avoid it. Since we still have a maintenance at that time, they clearly can't avoid it. It's been forewarned since the weekend. And we talk about one. So: finish your raid evening early, start it late, or have a 1 hour break. Even if some players only log in for their raiding night, surely there are others who still play other stuff in the game - and they can contact their raid group - there are such things like WoW Companion App, Discord text channels and so on.
Sometimes I think that people are forgetting that WoW is only a game. Stop taking it too serious! And if you do take it serious: well, you know about the time frame now and can contact your raid members.
So, no, it's really not justified. Honestly I think it's just a misplan, if you go to their twitter and follow their link for the schedule it shows that is for blizzard services, it's not wow related, so it might be a bnet update on the backend side, something for in-game shop and so on. It could have been issued by some manager that maybe doesn't know that it's a bad time at all. This is what I hope at least and while I know it's just a game and that my evening will roll out just as fine it's just a bad move.
