Patch is up

[Xanikk999]

As people who would be able to wake up early or don't have any things they need to attend will be one week ahead, ie, if the patch came up 1 hour earlier then some could theoretically have completed void ark and quest before reset which would put them 1 piece ahead, in a game where it matter to some it is an unfair advantage.

Big deal. Why does it matter if someone else has extra tomes or one more piece of gear then you do? If it effects the quality of the game for you that's a personal problem.

How can you get an unfair advantage in something that every one can do *once* per week?

Disclaimer: I don't think servers will come up early but the logic above is.. well.. not logical.

So why is this a problem?

So it's server congestion and not because of a perceived advantage according to your link.

why do you think there would be more server congestion an hour before reset rather than after?

Because people want to rush out to try a new patch. This has always been the case with MMOs in my experience.

so what does this have to do with the time that the server comes up? either way its the same.

Are you purposefully being dense? This is a direct response to what you said which ultimately was from another quote of yours:

That may have been the official reason given, but we all know it's not the actual reason that people were complaining. God forbid somebody gets something sooner than somebody else.

It would matter in a PvP-based environment, which is not the case in this game. For now you are asking why this child in the courtyard is crying because his comrade gots a red balloon 5 minutes ago and he didn't got one, yet.

Final fantasy community can be that strange time to time

I don't mind someone elsa has extra item, as I will take a leave and become one of the "someone" as well ^^;

But I think it is for the sake of system consistency as every weekly reset provides the same window for players to process.
Therefore if there is one special day that can obtain item for one week, it is a system inconsistency - which is the unfair advantage against another week.
