    Default Double XP after rollback and patch mess up?

    Although the patch did some great stuff with the netcode all the bugs have made it unviable...

    This particularly affects american people and people who work until late as those people continued to level and grind techs etc while the server was in a mess.

    Is there any chance we could have a day or two of double xp to help us catch up, for the day of test mode and evening of bugs? I know its not a big deal and we don't pay a subscription, but I think zoltan/alduin will win some brownie points with the community if you say sorry for insufficient testing and give us a little double xp so we can catch up on lost time?

    We should actually slap ourselves around for the insufficient testing. As far as I know, the problems surfaced during load, something that the team is trying to get going on the test server. Unfortunately it is an uphill struggle, the team can only do so much, they cannot create the load necessary without our help.
    In the end, the tests are forced to be conducted on the live server.

    As for the double xp, I'm either or in the matter.

    "All the bugs"? I haven't run into too many of them, and have leveled since and after.

    Double xp? What was it, 2-4 hours it was having issues, if that? At best this is a far reach.

    I think double xp or something would be a good idea and was speaking with many people about a patch issue in the past and how the GM's gave compensation GM spawn items to players who it effected. May this would be a better idea then double XP again. If anything were about to come out of it ofc. As we dont know how long the down time / test state will be fore we cannot really comment on the situation as such.

    IMO, although it'd be lovely to have double xp as a standard, this is exactly what will happen if at every opportunity the community cries out for double xp, and it's granted, every time some one changes something with regards to how the game works, and there's a little down time!

    The game's being worked on, just enjoy it!

    I actually think people asking for double exp when a rollback happens is more understandable than for downtime, with a rollback there is a genuine tangible loss that happens to everyone who played in the effected times, this doesn't happen with simple downtimes.

    That being said, I also don't want double exp to be expected after every problem. Anyway double exp time won't help those of us who were rare part hunting but it at least provides a good opportunity to start another character if you were planning on doing it at some point.
