So how would it affect you and other americans if they split the client and patching hours? This has been done with most MMOs, I don't see why this should be any different.

Why are you so against this proposal? It doesn't affect you if Bioware provide better service for their EU-subscribers. But I assume you're just trolling?

Surely there are more players online now than in the early hours of the day? Say, 3AM to 10AM CET.

Said the guy who was buy bashing other users on an SWTOR forum...

It's time for Europe to rebel! No taxation without representation, don't tread on me, and so forth...

I don't think anyone is claiming that the servers are down during peak time, but this is much worse than having the game down for maintenance in the early hours of the day.

Do anyone have any numbers on how many SW:TOR-players there are in North America and in Europe? Could be interesting to know.

/signed, a million times signed! I've never played an MMORPG who hasn't had different maintenance downtime for different continents, why should this game be different?
