Maintenance times unfair to West coasters.

I say BW just move the downtime to either be the best for aussie players or the worst for chinese gold farmers.. I dont really care which but it would be nice to hear more american qq You guys warm my heart

Btw BW.. thanks for the network code 200ms aussies vs 40ms americans.. its SO much easier to kick their arses than it was in WoW with 400-500ms vs 40ms (tho even then we managed it) We can hear the QQ from the other side of the world (pssst I know they want you to add an artifical 200-300ms to our pings so they have a chance but please dont! Its WAY to much fun making them cry!)

12a is a perfect time

I think West coasters should be damn grateful it's during the night. I've complained often about this, as an EU player who works shifts and so the main time I would play is during the day, generally week days as well. But for the Oceanic guys it's even worse, with the impending release in that timezone. I can't imagine (well actually I can) that Bioware would be so lazy as to not implement separate downtimes for North American, EU and Oceanic servers, once they are live.

sorry, what are you complaining about?
Europe's maintenance finishes 4pm/5pm, yet you are complaining about 2 hours in the night?

Can't please everyone all the time. If they did maintenance at 2am Western then that would be 5am eastern then you have the early morning crowd that can't get on the game.

At least I haven't seen as much EXTENDED downtime on SWTOR servers as I have in others games in the past.

People are pathetic!!!

The down time is when I want to play, poor me!

EU servers are down during the day.

Oceanic is down during prime time which will be a concern March 1st when the Oceanic servers go live.

The only fair way would be to rotate the down time weekly. The problem with this option is it would be very unfair to the team that rolls out the update. They would be forced to change their schedules weekly to accommodate people who whine and complain.

People who ***** about scheduled maintenance need to:

a) grow up

and

b) get a life.

The ME ME ME attitude is pathetic. I suggest taking your ball and going home!

FYI server maintenance is generally during my prime playing time, I am a night owl. I can find a million others things to do when servers go down.

O'rly? That's probably because it's at an inconsequential time to 99% of US players. Although I see your post didn't acknowledge an existence of a world outside the US.

serious companies do maintenance different hours for USA/Europe/Asia
EA is the black sheep in gaming industry for years. I was expecting that

2am maintainance is an industry standard. it is based on where the company or where the servers are located. Most likely the company.

If they're in Central Time, its 3 am East Coast, 12 am West Coast.

Its an industry established time. common procedure.

Nothing to see here, people. Move along, citizen.

Can't do server maintenance at different times without locking regions screwing players living in non launch countries.
