Perfect World International ?

Why does a game thats supposed to be based in PST timezone have wars that are designed for Asian timezones ? Doesn't Asia already have 3 versions of the game that never had wars to suit non-Asian timezones ?

8pm PST, 11pm EST are hardly times suited to an American/International/non Asian consumer base.

Asians have at least 3 versions of the game , why should this version pander to their timezones ???

This isn't an anti-Asian rant as most of my mmo friends are Pinoy but a rant at why this game needs to pander to a timezone who according to GM's have 3 times less spending potential hence the cash-shop prices here.

Fix the times of the wars so they suit the market it is aimed at just like the Asian wars are .

    Yeah the Times need to be fixed, who goes to TW at 1 am in the morning in USA >.<

    They should make TW 2-5 hours more early than it is now.

    O.o I'm sorry instant, but you stopped making sense when you said the times are for Asian timezones. No, where you said it was in PST timezone.

    The clock on the main page seems to have recently changed to EST timezone, because it shows my time.

    But yea, people are confused about server time, now that the clock says one thing and the TW map says something people can't agree on it's meaning.

    And there is already a thread about this, where both PST and EST players (And those in between) are already saying they don't like the times.

    EDIT: And Zanko where are you getting 1am in any USA timezone? The TW page, even converted 3 hours plus, only goes to midnight max (Starting times), if those times are still in PST.

    It is also very late for me in the night-time.

    On the Game Guide page they list the following times:

    Friday: 8:00pm-11:00pm

    Saturday: 9:00am-12:00pm
    2:00pm-5:00pm
    8:00pm-11:00pm

    Sunday: 9:00am-12:00pm
    2:00pm-5:00pm
    8:00pm-11:00pm

    It seems thus far we, at least at Heaven's Tear, got stuck with the ones late at night...unless there was some guild that had one earlier that I am unaware of.

    Anyway, not sure if these other times have actually been used or not, but it would be great if they were.
    I read the forums when bored at work for the lulz.

    So far Heaven Tear had every weekend the 11pm time, and its terrible for all guilds.....
    those times might be ok for PDT/PST but not for EST or europe or anywhere else.
    I thought this ones are the west servers and the game is "international"?!
    Change the TW times imo!!!!
