Question about Opening Hour

[black_knighthood]

The steam time doesn’t match neither 2am est or edt, it’s delayed like 2 hours, thats why I’m asking.

[padren32]

The countdown timer on the steam store page is incorrect.

[BloodHeartless]

the countdown for me ends on 3 am BRT , I dont know for u… but for me … is correct =)

[BloodHeartless]

the server will open 2am EST

[maruthontour]

You can run , but you can’t hide from it!!

My conversation with Julie:

Steam Page Countdown

From what I can tell it’s actually set to PDT. And will release my time at 2 AM. So it’s set to release 5 AM EDT.

@Staff_Julie, @STAFF_Ethan, @STAFF_John - Can we please get someone to fix it. The countdown clock is off by 3 hours.

Use this to check it - http://www.timeanddate.com/date/dateadd.html, I figured this out a couple days ago but I figured the GMs would catch it. Be sure and add an hour at the end of it, the steam clock doesn’t count the current hour we are in.

Steam Page Countdown

Unless I’m mistaken, I’ve seen Ethan try to do something about this since it’s not business hours for Steam when we’re working over here. I’ll ask him about it on Monday.

[padren32]

I’m already predicting steam users not being able to play till 5am, im calling it now.

[black_knighthood]

Damn, I’m more confused now lol

[Gringe]

This made me realize i wont be able to play til 3am…
http://time.is/EST

I’m on the east coast and its an hour ahead of that. I was going to stay up and reserve my character name, but i guess ill just cross my fingers instead.

[Sukiyomi]

They basically messed up when they put the release time on steam and never checked it till Friday I’m thinking. Then Ethan was off all weekend. I’m hoping it gets fixed tomorrow, but who knows. If it doesn’t get fixed it’ll be released at 5 am EDT.

Oh and EST and EDT are the same time zone. One during the spring, the other is during the fall for daylight savings time.

I PM’d @Staff_Julie about this a few days ago, and she checked in with IMC and corrected this already in the announcement post:

Details on the Founder's Server and Regional Servers

Open : 2 a.m. EDT on the 29th of March, 2016

[padren32]

Yes, that’s when the servers come up, but if steam detects “Nope on our end the game doesn’t release for another three hours” then you will keep getting the message we are now and won’t be able to play until the timer expires on their end. The game won’t launch.

[FatePGN]

Oh I was referring to the OP who mentioned the post about it, not the steam page.

But now that I am looking at the steam page, you are correct, the time is pretty off.

[padren32]

Yup, I’m predicting a massive storm of angry players if 2am hits and steam won’t launch the game.

[Staff_Julie]

Hi, everyone. We fixed the release time. Please check the Steam store page once more.

[LargeBanana]

LOL, you cracked me up.

[korasai]

Thank you so much Julie!

[padren32]

Awesome, thanks for the quick response. Maybe I should buy the highest founders pack now. I love seeing actives Devs in forums. Makes me feel better about the game I’m playing.

[tsigetartseht]

Thank you for fixing this immediately . It would be inconvenient if it indeed ended up with the servers being open but Steam is not letting us to

[Hyperion]

Tomorrow is gonna be painful.
