Original Post — Direct link
I have already posted about the 7 minute load time and then game crashed and waited another 7 minutes so of course I was not surprised when booting up the game on pc this morning and waited my 7 minutes only to be greeted by the delta screen and then discovered that maintenance was underway.

As we had already been informed that no maintenance was scheduled for this week it's a bit like rubbing salt into the wound and certainly winds up the frustration, I can only hope that the loading time is actually being sorted out as I type.

Is it not possible to display error messages and maintenance messages at the point of starting the game rather than sit and wait only then to be informed that the game is not available?

We aim to fix the issue as soon as possible.
