Interesting that it's launching during E3... Maybe whatever Yoshi announces there will be related? (New 7th Umbral Era live content? The Meteor-related stronghold?)

lol...First off, NA covers 4 time zones. 2-8pm PDT = 5pm-11pm EDT The East Coast of the US gets Screwed far more offen then
EU Players.
Secondly I don't remember many Updates before 3pm on the east coast, Other then Day Light Savings mucking up the preseption
of this, I call BS on EU getting Screw more offen the EST/EDT time zone.
1. NA covers 4 Time-Zones? Really? Oh my god...
First of all.. NA covers 7! Time-Zones ( MST and PST sharing the same Time so you can say its 6 different Times. ) and not 4.
I would guess people would know their own Country. EU covers 4 Timeszone only and by that, the Time-Zones doesnt matter at all. The People which play at certain Times matters.
2. No Update before 3:00 PM on the East-Coast?
Um.. you know that the "East-Coast" is not the first Time-Zone of the States, right?
You totally missunderstand the meaning of "getting screwed". You prolly dont have a Job, or you are someone who still goes to School. You know people work in different Shifts? All around the Globe? So do you really think the "Time-Zone" matters?
I can tell you that every maintenance screws me over, even if im in EU, guess why?! Because Night-Time is the only Time i actually can play mainly, due my Job etc. And that is what happns to a lot of the EU-Players, since we WORK during day, or spend Time with out Family and what not.
So question back... why does it screw over NA again? If its between lets say 2:00 pm and 8:00 pm, then i wouldnt care at all, since thats a normal Work-Shift in the EU, or the Time we actually tend to spend time with our Family. No Idea why i would play during that Time.. no Real-Lifers anyone?
EDIT:
It doesnt matter at all, which Time-Zone you are living in. Maintenance will always screw certain people over, some wont care and some are happy about the Times. It is nearly IMPOSSIBLE to find the "best Time" for everyone.
MST doesn't share PST.
dafuq. I live in Colorado. Everytime a patch comes and is announced on pacific time, I have to add one hour and it's right. Maybe Arizona doesn't have DST or something (so that PDT=MST)?
(It's 9:53 AM in CO atm)
Arizona is an exception, not the rule.
ETA: IIRC Arizona doesn't follow DST, so their time is the same as PST during the spring/summer months.

Yeah they should totally work 5 AM for you so you can be comfy.
Oh i see where that came from.
Arizona is MST too, BUT it doesnt have Summertime unlike CO. In Winter Arizona and CO share the same Time.. its from 11.03 to 04.11 where the Time is different and Arizon fits PST, due the change to Summertime.
So Arizona ( MST ) has its own Timezone, kind of.
