And think about it maybe there are more player in other time zones which would create more dissatisfaction basic marketing 101.

Thanks for telling me. Hey, far as I'm concerned, they made a dumb decision from the git go to not have regional support/maint. That's come to pretty much be expected these days. I just don't see the point in having hysterics about a downtime that probably was crucial. These things happen in an MMO. Don't like it but I like ugly bugs even less although I have no idea what went wrong this time. If they said, I've missed it.

This is very common after major update. Get a clue & stop making bad threads about every small thing that happens. Bioware also gave much of the population 30 days free gametime.

Aww man ... I get off at 6a graveyard shift expecting to play with the shiny new 1.2 and the servers are down? Today's been pretty crummy.

Getting hysterical about ME3 got Bioware to do something about it. Maybe thats what needed here, and at least this cause is much more justified then Nerd-Rage.

If the rule changes & we don't keep switching between GMT & BST for daylight saving, then it'd help

from now on as a matter of fairness BW should alternate - one patch is done night time America, the next night time Europe - and so on why should the Europeans, with a greater player, and so buyer pool, have to put up with loss of play time without compensation? Americans just sleep through the patching... and don't come with 'you should be working at that time' because some of us don't for whatever reason.

This IS valid, the GMT time zone should be used at least when referencing the UK We are being given 30 days playtime added? Where does it say that I never read anything like that? What happens with people that already paid time in game card form and is using it like that? Or is the statement you are referring to "Active subscription" Just mean have current time and able to play, rather than (BW's term) set up for future payments... It's just really pissing me off, 3 downtimes in 1 week, 4 , 6 and an 8 hour thus far.... and all during either the day for me (not early, like smack right in the middle of the day)

Bioware also gave much of the population 30 days free gametime. They gave 30 free days to level 50 players. The majority of which are American players, because they got the game first. The players most effect most directly in a negative manner by the patching and maintenance were not rewarded/compensated, nor were those who were the most loyal to the game. Thats an entirely different issue though.
