Please end the timezone confusion and include a displayed server time somewhere in the UI for the next update! This shouldn't have to be explained at all...b:sad
Retired b:bye

    agreed, such as a huge town clock in every town, or even if only on the minimap

    I completely agree, the first thing I looked for when I started playing at 10am this morning was the time in game. As it was 10am where I am I was surprised that it was still dark in game. I understood the time in game is probably PMT or EST, but without a clock it is impossible to tell. It would be nice, and make perfect sense to know what time it is in game so that I have some idea when daylight (or nightime) is going to come. I found this to be quite confusing as a new player, and i'm still wondering.

    Please can someone tell me what time (PST,GMT or EST or otherwise) is server time ??

    They use California time for their announced times (and their in-game fantasy time for lighting).

    California time is GMT-8 hours until the second Sunday in March and then GMT-7 hours until the first Sunday in November.

    I'm in the UK meaning I am GMT the servers are 8 hours behind me so not +8 but -8 GMT.

    Thanks very much, I guessed it might be PST (Pacific Standard Time) or GMT-8, I just wasn't sure.

    WRONG.

    First of all, the entire western seaboard uses this timezone. It's called the PACIFIC TIMEZONE. Second of all, it's GMT - 8, not + 8.

    GMT + 8 is Singapore, and obviously everything further north of it, including some of Chine and quite a bit if Russia. But Singapore is the most noteworthy city in GMT + 8.

    I am sorry I got that wrong.

    They even post that information on the bottom of every forum page (including this one)!

    I have corrected my original post.
