BallsOfSteel Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 Its just wrong punishing nearly 20 percent of players
Sea Archer Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 The problem is that you will always have people where maintenance is in primetime. So who shall be punished instead?

qw569😳 Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 (edited) @Hethwill Data for two weeks is very difficult to fit into the image size. One week. Each column show maximum for 2 hours. Edited September 13, 2019 by qw569 1
Liq Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 So according to the data above, moving it +2 hours would affect more players Whereas moving it -2 hours would affect less Simples 4
Angus MacDuff Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 I would vote for moving it back two hours. Right now its at 7am and i'm usually up at 6. Pain in the ass...
Beeekonda Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 It would make Maintenance to start 1 am West Coast.

Captain2Strong Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 make a 12h change because Im from eu 1

Despe Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 why not put 23 hour maintenace and 1 hour online server? 1
Serk Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 Judging by the graph, seems maintenance should be around midnight and 2 AM US Est...
Forbin Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 Why maintenance even necessary ? I play others games where servers barely never stop...unless there's an update to the game.
Severus Snape Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 When is aussie prime time relative to the server? I know Jeheil asked for this to be done for a while....he just ended up quitting.

Razee Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 Just make it eu night time..then it will affect least people.. Also in this time and age its ridiculous to have maintenance everyday..

Thanks a ton mate. 20% seems a bit high of the number of players effective but still it's in the prime time of most SEA/AU players. Not only do they have to live with crappy ping but an hour down time during there prime time. Oh and why does it still take an hour (more like 45 mins)? They should be doing a quick back up and game back online in less than 15 mins like most over games, saving the hour long for hot patch and the 2 hour down time for major patches/changes. 5 hours ago, Liq said: So according to the data above, moving it +2 hours would affect more players Whereas moving it -2 hours would affect less Simples For me it's at 5am CST which is right when I'm about to leave for work. In the past other games have had there's around 1-2 my time which was a goo hint of it's time to go to bed. 2 hours back would put it around 3am and when I think the server numbers are at the lowest at that time.
Angus MacDuff Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 This is probably more about when the devs want to do it during their working day in Kiev. I doubt that there is a lot of movement possible on their part.
Atreides Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 (edited) I fully support backing it up 2 hours, the population graph shows that is the best time for the customers, because the fewest would be affected when server population is lowest. Currently you get a spike that starts and crashes due to shutdown. Its like starting a day by taking a shower, eating your breakfast and going back to sleep for two hours, then going to work. Not logical. That makes it 0900 Kiev time, which should be fine for any working business office. Who knows, we might see some people come back to the game, like the best English speaking FREE advertising this game EVER saw. I miss Jeheil Edited September 13, 2019 by Atreides

Makes me laugh, that is what my day looks when i got late-shift. Get to Sleep around 1-2am, must get up because of the kids around 6am look that they leaf the House for shool, until 8am all will left the house then i go to sleep for around 2-3 hours befor i go to work.

I miss Jeheil LOL and put the RvR lockout squarely in the prime time of west coast US players? I don’t think pissing off a good chunk of the players you have in a niche game, who have the most buying power incidentally, is a recipe for longevity. Until the system infrastructure of the game is improved then it should stay where it is. Besides, most of those 60 extra “players” that are up early are just Lenin and his alts doing some fishing or trade runs...
