Will servers come up sooner or on time from patch?

While it's not sure, In all likeliness, it won't come up earlier than 10AM GMT.

I would prefer it does. More random time server goes up early, less people instantly in the queue at the same time xD

There...is only one time? Maint happens at the same time everywhere, only the timezone makes it seem different at all.

10:00 GMT = 11:00 MEZ; not 10:00 MEZ as announced in the german forum part...
(I think it's only an error, but I haven't found a way to report that error)

Yeah, the mod must have forgotten to convert the GMT time when translating the news into german ^^

While I doubt it will come up early there is an important difference between past housing maintenance and this one. This housing maintenance is not adding houses. it is simply unlocking houses to private ownership.

Well, last time buying housing was only available for FCs, now that almost anyone can buy a house, there's going to be a lot more people trying to get at them.

I can only imagine the pure hell that would rain down on SE if they opened the servers early... Just...Imagine the complaints, the chaos...

Why?. Unlike past maintenance they have not announced that the server won't come early than end of maintenance planned time, and "Please note that the duration is subject to change."

People should read what is announced, not what they imagine

People often complains about long maintenance time. So they should be happy if it's shorter

Because random opening times give advantage to the people that have no life outside gaming (or just use bots) and can afford to spend multiple hours constantly trying to log in time and time again.

If the maintenance ends at the specified time, everyone have the same, fair chance. Small, but "small" is always better than "none".

1) Most of us do have lives and because of it we have learned how to cut deals at work with my coworkers to get my time off when we need to.
2) It is Monday night to Tuesday evening depending on what part of the world players are on. If this was Friday or Saturday I could understand the "people without a life part" but what the heck happens on this time block that people are missing out on.
3) Early end time would give people who are actively waiting the chance, but only a good player would understand that.
