Maintenance Time

[Aussie Pastor]

Hi Devs,

 

Can you please have the Maintenance 2 Hours before the usual time?

 

Tonight it was at 2000Hrs Brisbane Australia (+10 GMT).

 

It would be more fruitful for us in the Southern Hemisphere to have the DownTime 2 Hours Earlier.

Agree, we have been getting downtime in prime playing time every day this week.

[Kokerpiraat]

The downtime reaaaally sucks now.

I have a free week, every morning I can't play and have to wait. It's rather annoying that it happens daily, but that's okay I get it.

Problem is the timing, for me, and I think others aswell it just sucks.

[BlackCaviar]

Whatever the time, there's always going to be some group left feeling aggrieved.

 

How feasible would it be to rotate the times over a period?

[Ligatorswe]

I would suggest that developers find two or three different times  and rotate between them. Asia and Australia is also an important market in the future and should be able to play prime time.

As an American with insomnia, I support my Aussie friends in this.

It comes up to about noon here in central europe, if we move it back about 2 hours no one cares cause it's still morning at about 10am, so non-issue. It's within office hours as well, so shouldn't be that hard for the devs, but that's up for them to decide.

So I hope you then voted for -2 hours then?????

Actually if it's 2 hours earlier, prime time evening is in the Pacfiic Ocean, whilst I feel fro the Pacific Islanders, I think there are more Aussies in game right now. -2 for me.

[Aussie Pastor]

I can not believe that over 300 views but only a couple of handful of votes.

Come on guys!!!

Help out the Devs, with good data to use.

[Ink]

Guys, there was an answer about the issue:

Captain! This is our promise to you.

We will move the maintenance times to accommodate australian/nz prime time!

 

But will require minor changes in the port battle availability times thus is getting a bit delayed. But we will do it as soon as possible

Thanks Ink,

I just wanted the Dev's to have some good data to show that the NA community is supportive of it.

Hope it will be sooner than later.

[Jager]

Definitely needs moving forward, voted for -2 hours and hope to see it implemented.

[Aussie Pastor]

So Devs!

 

this helps with some actual Data to show the move would be very profitable.

 

So have you got a close "ball park" idea of the timing of implementation???????

Now you Devs got to say,    Here we are Donkey!!!!!!!

 

[admin]

guys we promised the maintenance time will be moved to accomodate australia/nz 

just hold on for a bit more please - we need to rewrite some code around the assault flags mechanics which are going to be affected by the maintenance time move.

Hey I'm new to the game how long and when does maintenance run from?

[Jan van Santen]

I might be  a bit late to join this thread, but maintenance 2 hrs earlier would be nice. Voted yes.

[Aussie Pastor]

Thanks Jan tell your mates to vote for minus 2

[Scout]

It will be nice to get the minus 2 hours for us on Iceland place my vote there

[Wang]

Can we get a update on how this is coming along?

And the possible solutions the devs are having on dealing with the port times? 

[Aussie Pastor]

I hope that they give ALL the PORT's Lord Protectors a week to resubmit the battle time to each of the Captured Ports.

Each Lord Protectors can be emailed with the Port/s that needs to be changed.

Eg. I'm Lord Protector of Barahona.

Email.....Dear Aussie Pastor

You are the Lord Protector of Barahona

The Battle Timer is set for X-Y Hrs.

1/ You can leave your time as it will not be affected.

Or

2/ You're time is affected; So you have one week to change it.

The Devs have Blocked the Battle Time Zones which will be in the NEW Maintance Time Block.

If you have not changed it, in that week; the Devs will put it back 1 Port Battle Time Block.

Then All will be ok.

It should Start this Friday 5th of January @ 0900hrs Kiev time till the following Friday 12th of January @ 0900hrs.

Then have the New Maintance Time Start on Wednesday the 17th of January.

Ready for the Weekend.

Hope this may work out easier than rewriting the program code.
