9pm for Aussie Sydney (east coast) players....

[Jeheil]

For some reason the restart of global moved BACK an hour, so its now 9pm...so home from work, eat, feign love for the family..and its say 730, maybe 8 and we are then can get on at perhaps 9.30/10pm....it was 10.35 last night....

So not enough time to play when I get home...not enough time after restart.

I basically can't play naval action during the week.

Poop.

...and then you turn legends off BEFORE restart !

Think ill go play something else again tonight. Given by the time the patch is in its 10.30-11.00

 

C'mpm chaps,. show us Aussies some love...35 ports we have on global, the most of any clan.

Our clocks changed a month ago. It was 7pm shutdown...then 8pm after change...then 9pm....at the moment they take the Global and EU servers down at the same time

For best fit for Euro.

I think it's for best fit for Devs. As they have to do the server maintenance on all Servers during their prime time. And they are situated in Ukraine, Europe.

Nonetheless I fully understand this situation is really bad for you to playing NA at weekdays

Jeheil I feel you. I have complained about the same thing. Hopefully after release it will be more like a 15min outage (blind hope)? That won't bother us too much.

In prime time AU EST I have to forget it as well during the week.

Agree , its killing us with most unable to play. If pb captures were limited to updating once a week we could live with it, but as you said we just play other games.

[Jeheil]

Surely there can be some automated shutdown and restart by now...its like 2yrs on....i love my NA and am having a ball in legends...but c'mon....9pm for a 30 to 90 min shutdown

i am puzzled - our clock moved 1 hour i don't know how it could move yours by 2 ?

You do make a good point.  There is one server that is aligned with a region... EU.

It would make sense for the Global server to be reset in the middle of that servers prime time and not in Aussie prime time.

Maybe after release they can have the server down time move later so it's not in SEA prime time but falls more in US early morning or just before EU prime time.  Though I think for now having all servers go down and up at the same time is for the Devs not us.

As for the time it goes down I haven't been up at that hour, but any one think maybe it's cause US just did a time change and maybe the server is doing it on local US time not a global one?

We went into daylight saving so we went forward whilst Eu went back hence the 2 hours

Well my first Aussie summer on Global...I will be home and fed Mrs J in about 90mins, so that gives me an hour before shutdown...then restart gives me about 90 mins before bed. Other than burning crafting hours and the odd trade run no time for any real 'stuff' and PB's are just gone on weeknights now.

Southern hemisphere = Opposite seasons (Aussie summer at the moment during European winter) = Daylight savings for both parties are the opposite = 2 hours instead of 1.

Afaik.
