Consider changing maintenance time?

[Raist]

The thing is, they do move the patch windows around. There were threads a while back complaining about maintenances happening during EU play times. A 5+ hour shift from these recent windows.

The scheduling is situational...some are done during Japan's business hours, some during the off hours. For whatever reasons they felt it best to run these at a time when they were likely fully staffed and not with a skeleton crew on board.

History has shown that regardless of when they choose to address hotfixes there will always be a region that complains.

It is a game that needs fixing. Be thankful they are working on it. In the scope of the cost of one basic account the downtime to the end user is the equivalent of a bag of chips from a vending machine (and snack size at that) versus weeks (maybe even months) of revenue for them. Pretty good value in my book.

Take a breather...watch some TV, spend some time with the kids... Far worse things to worry about than a video game being offline for patching.
