-No Flaming
While debate and discussion are encouraged, we will not tolerate rude or insulting posts, personal attacks or inflammatory posts of any kind.

-No Trolling
Posting in a thread for the sole purpose of harassing a user or derailing / hijacking a thread topic is not allowed.

We believe that we've uncovered the problem, and a resolution is now currently being tested with our QA department.

We will have more information once QA has had a chance to run the fix through its paces.

Best,

1 in thread When will Invincible be patched .... [Ask an FLS Developer!]
Somebody posted incorrect AU patch information, so we pulled it off so it wouldn't confuse anybody.

We're in the process of figure out the patch timing with Telstra right now. We aren't going to do it during AU prime time, but we still have a few hours until that hits, so maybe we can still get it done this afternoon. There are some problems with our AU testing that we need to clear up before we push the patch out.

More information when I have it.

What? I don't understand. The Deliverance had its DR reduced.

You're right - it's missing a point of DR on the bow/stern.

Don't you think it's enough of a hassle that we lost all that **** in the first place? Because of a bug we had no control over?

Why not pull the data right away? I'm not asking for much - only that the stuff I lost be replaced in its entirety. In the meantime, I'm unable to play. Please remember that. Thanks.
Friend, it is standard practice to provide as much information as you possibly can in a support ticket. So, as much as you possibly can, do so. The fact that this is a monumental hassle for you is not lost on us, and we truly regret that you are forced to deal with this in the first place.

So file a support ticket, let us know what happened to the best of your ability, and we will work hard to help you sort out the rest.

Best,
Aether
