Downtime today, more important than you think

Downtime FAQ - May 30th 2006
What is the downtime for?
The downtime today is for the 16.2.6 client update, the following changes are being made in the update:

Sector 42 Encounter
- New Alien Sector Open – Unicorn forces have opened up Sector 42 for all security cleared citizens to enter. Those wishing to enter should visit the Unicorn representative at the sector gate. Release article can be found here

Political and Military Changes on Rubi-Ka
- Omni-Tek Security forces have moved into Borealis. Clan citizens should be aware they risk attack anywhere within the city limits now. (Read More)
o NOTE: Clan characters saved in Borealis have been moved to a safe location
o There are new recruiters in and around Borealis who new players can use to join both Omni-Tek or the clans
- Vanguard forces have extended their protective patrols to include West Athen as well as the city itself. (Read More)
- The Unionist Clan has seized control of the 4 Holes mining outpost. Omni-Tek employees should be warned that they will be attacked on sight (Read More)
- Miiir have opened a new branch in Newland City


When is the downtime?
The downtime will start at 1300 CEST (find out when that is in your timezone here) and is scheduled to last approximately three hours

Be aware that this changes normal routes through Borealis to Ofoz, until FC move him, which they may do in the extended hour downtime announced today. I think that they forgot that Fixers and Everyone needsto be able to chat to him to be given the quests for the Bazzit Alien Library and Fixer Grid.

It may be a good time to stake a spot in 4 Holes tho as this is new open territory for us :)

You know...I do wish they would let us players decide wich city should fall under wich side controll from the number of mining operations in a sector. having 2/3 of a sector controlled with clan mining = nearest city is filled with Clan guards, and vice versa. Making us players more influensive on who controlls what.

This ofcourse with the exception of key citys as Old Athen, Tir, Omni Trade and Omni 1 as it would mean some serious downtime each month. And certain Neutral citys wich should stay neutral...such as Bori...wtf where they thinking? :?

It is possible to reach Ofoz, with or without yalm, and have time to talk to him. I won't say it is as easy at it was, but it is not so hard either.
