Who's prime time? The game covers at least 9 timezones (for target markets) at various spots on this globe.

And can you please provide the subscriber numbers with region statistics, I've been really curious to see how many people have subscribed to the game.

i don't care when they do patches and let them do there thing if it bothers you that much wow is available except on tuesdays when they do patch during american business hours just like japan does, god get over yourself already stop with this crying over spilled milk..

some of you just like to bitch about anything you can get your little minds wrapped around.

I am not agreeing with the OP but I just want to correct this and many other's comment. This is sheer ignorance.

Their NA and EU datacenter is in Montreal Canada. Their cage masters and sys admins working on this datacenter are all living in Montreal. So yes they are working nights when a maintenance like this happens.

Source: I know many of these sys admins and cage masters.

Really another whining thread about mait during prime time? Once again game is made by Japanese developers so big stuff like patches and whatnot are done on Japan time.

Doesn't the same thing happen with US based MMOs?
So what's the problem?

In EU JP and everywhere that isnt USA, yea i no its hard o believe that there is more places in the world that isn't USA.

For these areas it's night time. Now from yosh him self in a interview he said he easy to please the usa but EU and JP are really hard to please and he says some other shit in there hes trying to bring in the big EU pop because as he said it isn't hard to get Americans to play a game.

On top of all that there JP work time happens to be during the USA peek hours, i wouldnt care if it was UK peek time to be fair as long as this game gets fixed and we can play it. The ending Result is all that matters.

P.S. if u dont like it u can always go play that silly game World of Warcraft.

These hair-on-fire threads are predictable and always hilarious.

I particularly like when they also contain a complaint like, 'but today is Potato Appreciation Day in my country, our most revered national holiday when everyone is off work eating chips and playing MMOs. How could they do this? Waaaaaa!' (...or some such.)

Really looking forward to the next update.

You are really raging for 1 day out of the week?? ONE day? who cares what time they do maintenance. I'm on the east coast and I'm not complaining.........and this might offend you and others but its the truth. this generation of gamers just like to cry, cry, cry, complain, complain, complain about the stupidest and smallest things ever. wow.......
