    Additionally, the patch finishes at 11am JST. When most people are at work. I have several friends who will not be doing the patch download til they get home. Let alone experience the content as soon as it is available....you know....like the NAs.

    And you don't even mention the EUs where it will be like 3-5am (depending on location) when the patch will be finished. Again, they would have to wait to download patch and wake up early or stay up all night to play new content.

    Suddenly, having to do something else aside from play the game for a couple hours one night doesn't seem too much to ask.
    There's actually some significant benefits to being JST for most of these updates. Most notably the first few hours where the bugs/possible crashes and quick fixes will all happen during that few hours when NA players are playing. So by the time JST players get on there's been 6 hours of hotfixes in place so they get a smoothly running game.

    Don't yell at me yet, check the past update and hotfix notes, they're almost always within 2~4 hours of a major update for an all worlds emergency maint. that lasts another 2 hrs

    hehe, why on earth would I yell at you? Additionally, I am not going to check this, I honestly don't care. There is not a single situation that anyone can post that will make me have an empathetic response to having/not having a video game available.

    I actually didn't mean you specifically I was mostly just using what you said as a leapfrogging point, sorry if it sounded more directed than that.

    Fair enough on the no empathy though, I don't feel crazy hurt by when the maintenance happens, I would like to see it roll around the clock though to be more "all time zones" friendly, as I said in another post somewhere in page 2 of the thread, I'm not looking for it.
