it would be less confusing if BB stuck to GMT time all the time and forgot about using daylight savings time as every country switches on diff days and some dont switch at all. As far as i can see even some states in the USA dont use daylight savings and use the same time all year round.
Frankly i think daylight saving time should be stopped as its no longer needed and just confuses a lot of ppl.
they seem to think that the end time originally posted was the right one though :P
Best way to stop using daylight saving is to move clocks half an hour so it would not be too far from each and keep it there
Still 20 mins for 11 bst time the new maintainence ending time, the first time was 12bstOriginally Posted by Qualan
I totally aggree.
All times should be posted as GMT (UTC) as this is server time; then for players (and DEVs) to adapt to local time zones, Daylight Saving or not
You mean Civ IV right? Thats what all the cool olegits are playing..
And here we are again, unable to set things up before I go to work. I wonder if anyone can tell me when the last update actually went according to plan?
There was a planned network and database maintenance from 01:00 - 07:00 BST. Nothing related to the update and notice was provided on the homepage and other channels.
Sorry, maintenance not update, still not done by 7am tho was it?
I have seen this problem on many other MMORPGs.
imho, by far the best solution is to have a "Game Time".
Not a server time or a time based on the current time in the time zone of most of the players, no. A Game Time.
This time will be used ALWAYS and EVERYWHERE that a reference to the time is required.
a chat command can query this time and players will adjust their brains accordingly.
