    You are absolutely right in implying that we shouldn't have to "figure out" when th game launches in our time zone. However, it's untrue that we can't figure it out, as you originally said. The timer is correct if you're in the PST time zone, and so, you can add/subtract times based on your time.

    Examples:
    GMT-8: 11PM
    GMT-7(PST): 12AM
    GMT-5(EST): 2AM
    GMT: 7AM
    GMT+8(Malaysia): 3PM

    And there we have it. I apologize, for the staff, for having a confusing/**** timer.

    You're my hero. *_*

    what's interesting to me is this: I live in PST time zone, it is 10:30-ish (give or take a couple minutes). so that plots me in GMT-8. At the same time, the "All times are GMT -7. The time now is" line at the bottom says the SAME THING, yet it's GMT-7, second, why would a california based company not use GMT-8 time zone when that's where the company is. I think it's a typo.

    I thought PST was GMT-8, 3 hours behind EST o.O

    The countdown is for your local System time the server has a time of PST -8 it says PST-7 because they did not add the DST. It should begin at 12 am on Tuesday PST -8

    PST-7 would be 11 pm.
