Sorry it's not the annoucement we're waiting for.

O,o at least they're not bringing the servers down, just for a few minutes.

Imagine if they were tricking us and released the new patch. :)

Yea, sorta like how Minecraft used to do "secret updates" during it's Infdev and Alpha phases.
But yea, it's about time they noticed it.

If nexon could put a patch into there servers and release it within a few minutes, I will buy a hat and eat it on webcam.

It was a joke xD I've played for a while and I can't remember one single time where a patch wasn't atleast 2 hours

Idk, it's like that for me all the time. <_<

Maybe they're really pulling the patch...

Nope, can't be. Hime is too busy playing Save the Princess with the Combat Arms guys to be sitting at her desk, pretending to be helping pulling out a patch.

So... Nexon posts on their website that the maintenance is complete, but how come I'm still lagging like crazy?

Because that's what DDoS attacks do?

You should know by now that it's gonna be a long battle before Nexon effectively beats this.
