Ya I'm having the same problem too so I hope the devs get it fixed soon. How long is "pretty quick" anyways?
But ya I hate how they patch every few days -fml-
My 6 hours of ryftomate is expiring QQ
Definition of "Pretty quick":
LONG ANSWER:
As soon as Tony or one of the other Dev's get home from their real lives, sees the update has occurred, makes himself dinner, eats aforementioned dinner, meets with Hawk to discuss if there are any critical things that have changed that should be of concern, updates his sandbox client, tests his sandbox client, re-verifies that nothing is suspicious, releases the hotfix to update the bot server.
SHORT ANSWER:
Usually a couple hours minimum, a day maximum.
Remember: >>>EVERYONE IS HAVING THIS PROBLEM RIGHT NOW<<<
What is happening right now is that the tripwire fail safe has been thrown by the bot's servers notifying YOU that the game has changed somehow and may not be "safe to bot" (as safe as it ever is anyway). This is a layer of protection added to the bot to help protect the general public from potential detection methods implemented in the hotfix patches. 95% of the time there is nothing to worry about and it is nothing more than a simple offset update. Offset update means they change the bot authserv to match the game's current suffix.
As for your time running out - buy the yearly sub, this bot is WELL worth the money. However, for those of us that go day to day (for some silly reason - it is WAY more expensive that way) the Dev's have historically extended subscriptions during extra-long down times.
Personally I LOVE how they patch every few days. It means things are getting fixed, revised, updated, made better. Remember WoW? It seemed like it took MONTHS for ANYTHING to get fixed. I used to continually say to myself "This game DOES have a PTR, they DO test it, HOW in the HELL does this shit get released like this?!?!?" I do NOT miss that crap!
Hope this helps! =)
DISCLAIMER: I don't know shit, but this is probably a fairly accurate rendition of what happens......
