Quote: Downtime works the same way for everyone, regardless of the time of day it's taking place.



Get over yourself.

Not really.





There's a pretty big, noticeable difference between servers going down while you're sleeping and them going down in the primetime play hours you have between work and sleep. That's what I'd call that whole 6pm to 12 midnight block for most working players, and maintenance activates smack in the middle at 8pm. I feel lucky if I get to play again at all maintenance day.





What I don't understand is why it can't be a little earlier, or a little later (after midnight APAC time isn't exactly primetime anymore). Why does the USA need to have ONLINE OR ELSE WORLD ENDS at 6 am on the dot, while other regions can get screwed over in the best playtime available?



Do it midnight USA time, do it 6 am USA time, at least then APAC gets some kind of primetime. Why does it have to be 3 am and brutally in the middle of another region's playtime?
