Bad news for the late night World of Warcraft players in US servers but this should definitely sting for players on Oceanic servers. Blizzard poster Eyonix announced that there will be an Authentication Maintenance on March 27 (err, today) starting 5 a.m. PDT and will go on for approximately three hours.

The maintenance will hit primetime gametime for them Oceanic players, (depending on what time zone they're at) it hits around 10 p.m. Players are of course complaining since this Tuesday was supposed to be a rolling restart maintenance day instead of the realms going completely down.

It couldn't be helped however since the authentication servers would be down - meaning players won't be able to log in. Let's just hope this goes as scheduled so everybody can have their World of Warcraft.
