Oyranos Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 (edited) Its unacceptable for EU servers to shut down during the day, we lose the entire day, also our conquest. Its 12:30 here and we still waiting for the maintenance and the downtime of 4 hours + ETAs I was hopping for early morning or at least 10-11:00 and at 3:00 be able to start playing again, but we still waiting for the maintenance to begin.

hadoken Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I don't know if the EU is on a different schedule than the US but not until tomorrow for us (about 24.5 hours from right now). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrigPt Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 you'll have a long wait they pushed back maintenance to wednesday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gomla Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I don;t mean to have a dig even though it's going to come across as such but .... after 18 years of MMO's people still complain about maintenance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oyranos Posted October 21, 2014 Author Share Posted October 21, 2014 (edited) Oh thanks for that, I thought its today, I saw a message in the launcher... But they have to fix the hours! Its the same time with USA, but while in the usa is midnight, in EU is 12:00 day time and we loose the entire day. My complaint is about the hour of the maintenance, not the maintenance itself. Its during the time everybody wants to play. Do you wish to exchange times? 12:00 midnight for us and 12:00 day time in you? Ofcourse not..

OddballEasyEight Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 (edited) So.... it's coming down from 12-16 on a wednesday right? And what do most people do during 12-16 on a wednesday? Well, most european players will be at work or in school. I mean, sure, it sucks if you're unemployed or work nights, but you can't really expect them to cater to the minority here. Most people will not be playing during this time anyway. Edited October 21, 2014 by OddballEasyEight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerba Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 (edited) If anyone can complain about maintenance times, it is the Australians. In Europe, maintenance times are nearly perfect for us; whether we can start playing at weekly reset at 2pm or two hours later makes not much difference. Except for the few times when maintenance took longer than expected and impacted the 7pm/8pm raids, there has never been a problem, so stop complaining.

Unfortunately yes. Gaming companies tend to choose time-frames that impact the smallest number of people, but there will always be complaining regardless.

LeJarC Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Unfortunately yes.

However, it would be more fair if they would rotate the time-frame from patch to patch so we all get to feel in turn what it's like to get your playtime interrupted... see who will do the complaining then luckily it ain't the only game in the world.

hadoken Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 lol, I think the combined number of players outside of the US/CA timezones will exceed those in US/CA timezones. Far as I know this game hasn't expanded into East Asia/China, so I seriously doubt this claim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImmortalLowlife Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 So correct me if I'm wrong, but some of y'all ACTUALLY expect a US company to operate on European time for maintenance on servers in the USA? It sounds like they'll have the servers down most of the night here. But because it's an inconvenience to YOU....you actually think BW would even consider changing possibly EVERYTHING they have planned in office for the week or more? Because it'll interfere with your raid time....FOR ONE DAY. THAT sounds reasonable to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait... are you really trying to say that a 12:00-16:00 maintenance time on a wednesday will inconvenience more europeans than there are players in the US/CA timezone? Because it is safe to assume that most players in europe actually work or go to school on a wednesday, so at most it will be an hour or two of inconvenience if they happen to get off work/school early. It's actually a pretty ideal time to do maintenance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
collinc Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 No one is addressing the real issue here. It should be: "When are the servers coming down?" Not: "When the servers are coming down, yo?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
