This thread now is irrelevant.

I know, I know: "We'll get it when we get it."

I'm not freakin out or throwing a fit or demanding that SE owes us anything after all they've already given. Just making a general observation for the sake of conversation.

Usually we have a maintenance notice a few days in advance. But 4/26 JST would by 4/25 for most the rest of us.

It's just one of those things of convenience I'm sure we all appreciate you know?

For example, Game 7 of Capitals vs Bruins is tomorrow night. If there's no patch I'll go watch it at a bar, if there is a patch I'll watch it at home. T'would be nice to know so I can make plans. After all, not being around for patch day is like saying "Eh, I'm skipping that whole Christmas thing this year."

What say you all? Delay or photo finish?

Updates are usually always on a Thursday Evening here in the UK, the servers come up at around 1/2am on Friday. That's how almost all the patches have been, and that's how I expect this one to play out.

I expected Patch on Thursday because of a delightful slip by a GM who I hope was forgiven.....

I imagine its tomorrow unless they post something today that its not. I expect it will go down for maintenance at the usual 2.-4 pm PDT on wednesday. Again unless they update and say otherwise.

I hope they are still on track. I'm excited.

In my mind it's on track for Thursday. If it's a day earlier. That's also fine.

I was also thinking about the reasons behind only adding one hamlet defence this update, I'm assuming it's for stress testing the Hamlet Defence content?

Yea normally on a Thursday like Drazzan said.

tomorrow would be april 25th. that post clearly says april 26th.

That seems plausible.

Would be a good way to do it.

26th April, 00:00, JST (Tokyo) would be:
25th April, 16:00 BST (UK Time)
15:00 GMT (Greenwich)
11am EST (East Coast)
10am CST (Central)
8am PST (West Coast)

That is why he is saying tomorrow I believe.

I live in Eastern Time Zone. We're always 11 or 12 hours behind Japan depending on the time of year.

So if a patch drops 4/26 at say 5 a.m. In Japan it'd be 4/25 at 5 p.m. for us. That's usually when the maintenances are for us, 5 to 7 p.m.

NA all worlds maintenance tomorrow thread just posted by rukiri

You guys are faster than the devs. Announcement for the maitenance is already up

Yeah. Usually here the Maintenance goes from 9pm -> 1am if it's four hours, but since the clocks went forward it is now 10pm -> 2am.

No wonder EU players are so sour about maintenance times. That sucks.

Haha had to wait 1hr XD

PS, stop saying its usually on x day, its varied a lot...

1.18 = Thursday
1.19 = Friday
1.20 = Monday
1.21 = Thursday
1.22 = Wednesday

It is also 5 hours long, 9pm to 2am GMT if im correct. XD

Hey Mister.. Your Character looks scary... ( That could be why the way you talk is scary as well >.<)

and its taking 5 hours mainly because of the Hamlet Defense... it is a "LARGE-scale battle content" after all :p.

I doubt the timeframe for the maintenance is related completely to the content being implemented =p
