Maintenance Schedules, please change them..

Hi,

Hold your flames a sec...

I understand why Maintenance needs to happen, I am not disagreeing with that... unfortunately I have lost multiple days of game time because Maintenance screws over Oceanic players 100% of the time.

Maintenance is always 7pm to 10-11pm New Zealand time, meaning whenever I come home from work I literally can't play at all.. At this point, I'm paying 14.95 a month to play for 20 days a month, how is this fair?

I get home, maintenance.. I get ready for bed, servers are up. C'mon.

There's always going to be 1 region that gets screwed over, and I completely understand this... but surely you can change the hours slightly? push the maintenance 2 hours earlier than their current schedules and we won't have this problem -_-

Those of us that work 9-5 in the Oceanic Region are suffering really bad from these issues.

It may seem funny to you, but coming home and not being able to play a game I am paying for every 2-3 days is pretty frustrating mate.

If they changed the maintenance time then someone else would be screwed at some point in time.

Maintenance has to happen some time, it's just a shame it happens when you are available to play. I play on a Japanese server so most Maint times for me are late night on my weekends when I can stay up late. I deal with.

You do know what you are asking is just going to cause the same issue to someone else. For your gain someone has to lose. Its the way of the world suck it up and deal with it. Sorry if I sound mean but like dude come on I get off 1230am my time and the game goes into maintence as soon as I get home. I don't get to play either, but you don't see me on her complaining asking them to change it so it can screw someone else over. No I just take it like a man, and not whine like a child that is not getting his way. If you feel like your not getting your money's worth you can always unsubscribe. Basically what you are asking is selfish anyway you cut or slice it. Your wanting SE to screw others over just so you can gain a few hours of play time when you get home.

I'm not asking them to completely suit my needs, but making it 2 hours earlier than their current schedule isn't going to screw over an entire region, as of right now it's perfect for European players, it ends at 6am for them... it's also perfect for Americans because it doesn't slice right into their prime time.

As for Oceanic.. we are screwed completely.

2 hours earlier means

EU will be done by 4am
Most of America maintenance will start at 9-10pm
Oceanic will be done by 3-5pm

As of right now, it only benefits 2 regions and screws everyone else.

Do you really think they are going to change everyone's schedules and change the way they do things because its not very convenient for a very small percentage of the population that play? Sure it probably sucks.. but you'll probably have to deal with it.

Good thing that the maint happens when I sleep. XD

FYI: They ALREADY CHANGED the times because of people complaining about it being 2 hours during the day most people generally should be at work or school or just getting home.

They changed it for entitled Americans, that's all they did.. no regard whatsoever to every other region, Eu simply lucked out.

Like i said, 2 hours earlier and most regions will be fine with it.
