Great maintenance times

[Stormpeaks]

May 29, 2023 12:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m. (PDT) is 4 p.m. JST and 9 a.m. CEST.

29 May is Whit Monday across most of Europe. Next year it falls on 20 May. In 2025 it falls on 9 June. For those of us who live in North America, it is totally unrelated to Memorial Day in the United States.

I can understand your dissappointment.

But I have to ask if you'd really rather spend the entirety of your holiday under threat of this condition: "This maintenance will address an issue which causes servers to crash under certain conditions." instead of getting up late and starting to play at noon?

EU worlds at least have had no issues and no crashes as far as I'm aware, I cant talk for NA as I dont play it much, so this "condition" basically is near to inexistent if not fully inexistent

once again this could have done the day after on a normal day where people work or are at school.

Who actually cares? I think the majority of folk are actually busy either working or doing something else around those times.

If youre going to be such a whiny baby for 3 hours then maybe actually take advantage of the holiday and go outside and touch some grass. Such a huge L thread on your part.

Yeah because everybody works on holidays lmao, idk in what world you live, and dont you worry about me touching grass, I was away from home for 3 days and came back last night, I touched enough grass but thank you for your concern

Yes, and they could have done that literally the day after when people are at work/school instead of doing it on a holiday, that's the point, and 9 to 12 is not early morning, maybe if you're lazy and always wake up at 12

Imagine freaking out for a block of 3 hours maintenance. It seems a bit unhealthy.

"freaking out" is a big word no? I'm just saying it could have been done at a different time, it aint like i'm screaming in all caps saying the company is terrible and that they should all get fired, stop exaggerating my thread thank you lol

I wont mind it going down for three hours tomorrow morning (meaning 3 am EST Time for me to 6 am) and it's my night off from work tonight. I'll play some more TotK
tonight instead of ffxiv like i do on my overnights nights off. The shrines are caaaaalllling me.

Not to mention that it begins at 4 pm in Japan, which could move into prime evening playing time.

In general, hot fixes are applied as soon as they've been validated to work. Apparently, if Stormpeaks does not experience a problem, it doesn't exist.

There would still be complaints about maintenance on Memorial Day (Monday maintenance)

Right in the middle of a holiday for both the EU and also NA, well done, couldnt have picked a better time for it eh ?

Get some friends or family and celebrate with them. There is also gras to be touched.

I just spent 3 days with family, but thank you for your concern ; ) I dont need you to tell me to see my family of my friends

not wasting anymore of my daily posts for this though, I said what I said, I wasnt screaming or "freaking out" like has been said, it was just me saying it could have been done on a better timing, I remember them also doing a maintenance on a 4th of july which is just terrible timing.

Since you are crying here on the forums about nonsense it seems you indeed do need someone to tell you exactly that.

There are different timezones, not everything revolves around you and NA. I know you really really believe to be the center of the universe and that the earth is flat and japan has no rights to their own work schedules. If you have a problem with all of that, there is a western mmo named WoW, you can go play that. Maybe they will cater to entitled people like you.

Isn't OP one of the people who usually complains that there's nothing to do in the game anyway?
