games Server Time display is affected by clients system day light saving adjustment

[Squa11_Leonhart]

When keeping an eye on the server time earlier, it was brought to my attention that the time I was seeing was an hour ahead compared to what others were seeing, The time i was seeing was 4:50pm where as others were seeing 3:50pm. This lead me to believe that there was only 10 minutes until maintenance when in fact there was an 1h and 10m remaining.

I am in Sydney, Aus and we are currently in DST.

I expect the clients Server time display to be the current server time and not server time + local dst.

Sydney is UTC+10 or UTC+11 during DST.
Server Maintenance was scheduled for 1700 GMT (5pm)
On my client, the Maintenance began when the server time was shown as 6pm

So in conclusion, the +1hour of DST is being applied to the server time where it shouldn't be.

There is not much more information that can be provided, but it is a bug. the server time display in game should not be affected by the users system currently adjusting for daylight saving.

See chat and server time (ST) in top right corner.

I can confirm that the posters photo was taken at 11:38 GMT, (Cerberus' Server time also uses GMT so it would be 11:38 too.

Here is a picture with timestamp in Chat and the clock visible in the corner,



As you can see it was 11:56 here in the GMT timezone.
