Staavis_SC Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Why the sudden change to 10pm as a downtime? You've already alienated the West Coast, New Zealand and Australia in the past, by shutting down at Midnight, now, you gotta screw over the West even more, and go at 10pm? The downtime is 8 hours, same as every other downtime. Why the early shutdown? Why move it more into primetime? Oh, and @StephenReid....3 days notice? Looks like about a 1 day notice to me, but then again, they didn't teach them new fangled math-e-ma-matics at my grade school, high school or college.

Dayln Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 (edited) It will never stop. Ever. What!?!?!?! Never?!?!?!? QQ But seriously is it so much to ask that they call me personally and find out when they best time for me is for them to apply this update? Is it so much to ask?

Staavis_SC Posted April 10, 2012 Author Share Posted April 10, 2012 Sigh, you wanted the release date now you have it now you QQ about downtime when does it stop I understand downtime. I have no issue with it. What I do have an issue with is: 1) West Coast constantly getting the shaft on downtime, and this time around, getting it even worse. 2) We were told we'd have 3 days notice of 1.2. Apparently, that was a lie. Heck, if they would have gone with the patch at Midnight, AS USUAL, then maybe I'd have not posted at all. You may resume your trolling now.

OmcBoone Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Im west coast. Doesn't bother me one bit. Even if it took 3 days to update the new 1.2, I wouldn't complain.. How about being happy for the changes and that they are coming this week instead of QQ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mythic_MK_II Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 so far CET time is good. at 3 PM most people are still at work/school/other. I am fine with it and, ofcourse, 1.2! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time this issue came up, that's what we were told. Looks like they lied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staavis_SC Posted April 10, 2012 Author Share Posted April 10, 2012 this must be your first mmorpg Nope. 4th or 5th. And in the other MMO's I played, the downtime was a consistent day, and a consistent time. So you could schedule around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today, April 10th, 2012. 2:30pm Downtime April 11th, 2012 10pm. 31.5 hours. 3 days = 24 * 3 = 72 hours. Big difference in 1.5 days and 3 days.
