Hi all,

first sorry for my bad english. We all know that the regular maintenance is made at the moment on sunday at the times below.

3am - 5am Pacific Time
6am - 8am New York Time
11pm - 13pm UK / France
12pm - 14pm Germany
21pm - 23pm Sydney

My proposal is to change first the day from sunday to monday. After this i think change the time to the following:

0am - 2am Pacific Time (monday night)
3am - 5am New York Time(monday night)
8pm - 10pm UK / France (monday morning)
9pm - 11pm Germany (monday morning)
18pm - 20pm Sydney (monday evening)

I think for all player this is better. Monday is the first working day and most people go to bed earlier. Okay our australian mates had the worstes time here. But i think they all could also life better with 18-20pm monday as 21-23pm sunday.

What do you mean about this?

Greetings from Germany.

    ANY other time, even a shift of an hour or two, would mean a larger number of people are inconvenienced. Cryptic picked the time the fewest people are logged on.

    Thats true for the sunday. How it look for the night from sunday to monday. I think there should lesser player logged in at the times i post. Because remember many people must work at monday, so as above said they go to bed earlier.

    Clearly sunday is NOT the lowest server load, it's the weekend... surely a weekday would be far better.

    Yes, but some maintenance can't wait. When they get things settled down a little more, they'll likely adopt a single day of the week. It won't be a weekend. I haven't seen their usage numbers, but it'll probably be Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, based on what other games have concluded.

    Of course, it's possible they'll find they need daily maintenance like EVE Online, in the long term.
