We will be performing maintenance on all Worlds at the time below to accompany Patch 3.0 and to implement early access to the first FINAL FANTASY XIV expansion pack “FINAL FANTASY XIV: Heavensward”. During this period, FINAL FANTASY XIV will be unavailable.

* The World Transfer Service will be suspended 15 minutes before the maintenance, and will be unavailable until maintenance has ended.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding.

[Date & Time]
Jun. 18, 2015 2:00 a.m. to Jun. 19, 2015 2:00 a.m. (PDT)

I'm glad they put something up for this. A lot of my FC and LS's were wondering what they were going to do. 

Thanks for the heads up! : D

Wow that's pretty heavy but ah well I totally understand. Plenty I can think of to do during that time.

I was secretly hoping for this. It gives me time to try drawing an Au Ra fanart!

Well...this is good for those with early access.

For people without like me, this stinks.

My last day of playing ARR is on monday then. I am going on a 3 day vacation to copenhagen and I will be returning in the middle of the maintenance. 

Hopefully I will be so tired from traveling that I can just go to bed and sleep until the servers go up. 

Unfortunately that means I have even less time to finish capping my GC seals ; ;

Thank the Twelve!  A night off to try and catch up with the list of other games in the 'to play' list.

*Will probably spend it in World of Warships instead of finishing older games*

IMA be stuck on Type 0. I love that game.

That's a pretty long time though I suppose it makes sense when the developers have to get the expansion ready for PC, PS3 and PS4 players.

I'll just play something else during my free time and bug friends on Skype with a countdown. I also might actually get some sleep and be well rested when the expansion goes back online.

24 hourss yaaay I have 24 hours to finish Witcher III...less than since it'll fall on mah birfday (June 19 itself but yanno, timezones and all) and that means going out to buffets!

Knowing me, I'll probably spend that night playing Xenoverse - especially now that the level cap is 99 now, apparently. My punch-Namekian must become the swolest.

That Friday, though. Man, I'm going to be so impatient at work. Ready to head on home and start on that tasty early access.

If it means a smoother launch, then let 'em have the downtime. I'd rather they took extra time to get everything running smooth than try to rush it and have to take more time later to fix problems.

24 hour maintenance is common for major content upgrades like this. TOR did it before the Hutt Cartel expansion, and if I remember correctly, 14 did it itself for 2.4 patch.

That said, though, up at 4 AM Friday morning? Looks like it's ODST time after work on Thursday, then sleep at about 7:30 to be fully-rested and wake up in time to dive right in.
