It is a new feature of World of Warcraft, nightly, you get 1 to 2 hours of downtime servers without warning or related information anywhere. Must be something new they implemented, to get players to go watch some series or play other games in the meantime. Because, dare you not!, have different waking hours from the norm of the social construct, you must sleep at night, and be awake at day.

Change your battlenet launcher from english (us) to englisk (uk) then you will get warning in launcher.

without warning or related information anywhere.

The scheduled maintenance was announced in advance on the BNET UK English setting as another poster remarked and on the site about half a day ago.

Scheduled Maintenance Changed to Daily instead of Weekly!?

There’s no mention of how many maintenances or how long the game will be other then that it is necessary to do them as required in the fine print. That the regular maintenance is weekly does not infer that that will be the only maintenance. For launches it is expected the game gets patched quite a lot as issues crop up to give everyone the best gameplay experiences (like the major AH lag issue that got resolved) Atleast it says here at the time of writing: https://eu.battle.net/support/en/hel…

I see it’s still down until 7 atleast, unless another issue crops up.
