Server reset

[King of Crowns]

@admin are there plans in the future to get the game to state that server maintenance is not needed every night? It makes the game unplayable for many people due to the timing. I'm sure there is some way you guys could make it so that maintenance isn't needed every day. it would help the game for sure. I was just wondering if that was on the agenda or not?

Of course it do. The server should go in maintenance when needed not every day .

There are numerous reasons to go through reset every day. Redeemables are one example. We have no idea how many issues happen which requires stuff to be given back to players and it's done at maintenance. Reducing the amount of time that maintenance takes might be an idea.

We should think ourselves lucky, there are games that are much smaller in scale that need a 4 hour restart cycle

There are also many games that reset once a week...    That would be much preferred to this daily thing.  Thankfully daily doesn't affect me in GMT -5, but I imagine to some its real inconvenient especially on a global server.

I really don't get why people make such a fuss about 30-60 minutes downtime every day. Just do something else meanwhile.

Downtime  is 2100 to 2200 in Australia.  The worst time bring prime time.  We have pur forward several times to delay or advance by an hour or two as then everyone gets a chance. Middle of day in europe and early morning in us.

I have always thought the same as you until last summer. Even if the server downtime is only 30-60 minutes, we have to keep in mind that our fights in-game sometimes last 60+ mins meaning that if they want their ships safe they can only do trading after one hour before reset.
