I'm annoyed because the announcement was confusing. My wife and I just started playing a short while ago and had a goal before maintenance. We were going to get all the requirements to get a home in-game. We busted our butts the last couple days because the last updated announcement was this:
-----------
In order to reflect data of the North American data center expansion as well as to accompany Patch 4.57, we will be performing maintenance on all Worlds at the time below, during which FINAL FANTASY XIV will be unavailable.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and we thank you for your understanding.

[Date & Time]
Apr. 22, 2019 6:00 p.m. to Apr. 23, 2019 3:00 a.m. (PDT)
* Completion time is subject to change.

[Affected Worlds]
All Worlds
---------------

The last thing we needed to do was get one more rank, which we planned on doing this morning before the servers go down at 6:00pm. So WHY did the servers go down at 3:00am this morning???? That was an OLD announcement! The newest one was above. Why did they start early?
