Hi,

Does anyone know if this is a permanent change? I thought it was switched to 4am EDT recently

    Probably not permanent. But since all servers are coming down at the same time this must be for the Midyear Mayhem event

    No, I think you misread it - it's 6am EDT (10:00 UTC, which is 11:00 BST).

    I'm also not getting ready for school or work or anything else - I'm not 10 years old, I'm retired - and my husband works nights as a nurse. I'm fine with maintenance whenever it happens (as long as it doesn't coincide with trader bids!) but I hate this attitude that some people have that everyone either has a 9-5 schedule in 1 timezone or is scum that aren't worth considering.

    I'm glad it's 8pm my time today, usually it's 6pm.

    Had enough time to have dinner tonight and log on. Usually it's during dinner.

    I wish it went back to 10pm my time, that'd be perfect.

    Those were the days. You could actually get some game time before the servers went down.

    Remember folks that you are playing a US video game, developed by a US company, distributed by a US company, and maintained by a US company. As a Dark Souls player, I do not go around being upset or demanding that a Japanese game conform to my timezone... The same applies to you!

    Remember - they chose to sell it via advertising outside of the US, to people outside of the US, speaking languages other than the version of English in the US in currency that is not that of the US.

    Due to this - the 'same' does not apply to 'us'.

    You're the minority.

    The vast majority of the player base is at work or school from 9-5. This is the best time to do maintenance as it disadvantages the fewest number of players. There is no time that works for everyone, so this is the next best thing.

    Do you have stats from ZOS as to 'The vast majority of the player base is at work or school from 9-5.' ??

    Please stop ordering people who are simply conducting a discussion - you are not an authority to give out such commands.
    My preferred time is 6pm EDT.
