... that means ill have to start patching at lunch ... i aint even mad ... assuming it actually takes the download this time. I always seem to have issues with their massive patches.

[anonymous161]

So if you live in the states it starts at 1pm then right?

[Hexenhammer]

This is the funniest thread in a long time. Please continue on.

I know. We can do a hashtag complain. I mean campaign.

#StopThePatch

If we get enough #stopthepatch happening I'm sure PGI will postpone their patch to another day and time.

so for Europeans we don't get the clans untill the 18th? Poor planning. More europeans play this game then most of you may believe.
Gone from 9 to 7 out of ten with this release. Better job next time i hope

So, for you to get it the 17th, us across the pond would get it on the 16th.

Then we would get to read you complain that we got it earlier.

[anonymous161]

Then dont live in the uk.

Understand timezones please, read all the posts in the thread. As mentioned earlier many of you are confirming stereotypes.

Top job PGI and thanks for the heads up Niko, it's good to see the Clan content going in. IMO they have been very well done and add a nice bit of variety to the game.

Keep up the good work.

As for those whining about the patch time, REALLY?? You've waited for MONTHS for this content and you're going cry over a few more hours? All because "the North Americans and everyone else will get to play them first and I want, I want, I want. ....."? That about sums it up.

There are those on these forums that have serious self entitlement issues and should really spend some special time looking at themselves and their lives.

FAIL! this patchtimes r just damn stupid, every other game can patch his servers in the night, and u start on PM-times? WTF???? ok, its nearly night in europe, but that time... omfg -.- maybe change it to AM instead of PM, so alot more ppl can play ur damn patches on DAYTIME not in the night.

and now im re-planing my day and wait until monday to play the new stuff - F UR Information politics !

It happens mid-morning their time, and when they can have live people watch it easily while not disrupting most folks in their major market (NA). For a small team, it makes sense.

[anonymous161]

Bummer I live in iowa but I work night shift so wont be able to enjoy this so the clans will have to wait till tomorrow.

Nothing set in stone yet. We'll make it known here in the Announcements forum when we do.

i was under the impression last chance announcements and the schedule on the website were real. I.e. Once delivery starts all deals are off. Otherwise i would have just waited.

[Redshift2k5]

So pumped. Longer maintenaince time doesn't bother me since I'm stuck at work, then I'll have to go home, have supper, put the kids to bed, yadda yadda anyway.

My brain is going crazy for Clan mech omnipod combinations

Will be waiting even longer. 7 PM Central is when they'll get injected, and it's possible some folks may not get them on day 1 if I read what they've written there correctly.

You can still buy the clan packages after todays patch, but you will no longer get the special rewards for buying early.

i'm not sure if ppl who keep arguing about how PGI can not even afford new servers for different regions and stuff like that.
to give you guys an idea .
one server = about $20k each and on top of that all the other gear like connections and server space and bandwidth.
just think about how is PGI making any proffit with all you cheapskates who dont even pay a single cent to play this great game and just whine and whine about issues with service.
if you want service then pay the **** for it or shut the hell up.
and know what the hell your talking about if your talking about a company who is providing us with this fantastic game for free.
if you like it then support it with cash.
maybe with more financial support we might actualy get our own region servers oneday.
if you don't like it then play something else like minecraft and don't spoil it for others with your useless rants.

oh and try getting stuck with ping which never goes below 200ms.
unlike you yanks or stuckup europeans who get below 100ms ping.

Just let them do there thing so when we get to play.
we can play without issues.
its been over 7 months since we have been waiting for this.
so what is a day you fools.
go play minecraft or WOW....or LOL.....

PDT 10.00 am = GMT 17.00 (5 pm) + 1 for location (Denmark) = 18.00

4 hours patch time = 22.00 for clan assault...

Have a meeting at 8 am next day... so roughly 10 hours of playing... Thats ok

Well on the PTS it was about 600MB, so not far off from that.
