cmon why… I cant see the point of that everybody is in school or working?
why isn’t the release date on Friday when it is almost weekend, you would probably get more poeple on the server . so why did thay do it?

any suggestions?

Because the contract says so.

…and because the staff actually works from monday to friday, making them able to take care of the chaos falling upon them next week.

Tuesdays is the universal patch and maintenance day for practically all games.

The fact it’s on a Tuesday isn’t really my issue–it’s that it’s released at 2:00 am. >___> …for me.

The least busy time for release the better.
It WILL lag and people WILL cry on the forums yelling about refunds while their servers catch fire.

#10

is ok, there is always 2pm around the clock :yum:

#11

And thats the point,im sure the server will crash anyways,thats totaly normal if a game goes life.If they would open the severs on a friday the server would struggle even more.

#12

Dang, that can’t be a coincidence…

Whoa, for real? I didn’t know that! Is there a specific reason for this?

@nuriomarayana I can only think of one reason: If they work under some sort of project management framework, such as SCRUM or anything alike, then most likely Mondays are the “Review Last Week + Plan for this Week” day. Thus leading to Tuesday being the “Let’s start to work” day.

Well… At least that’s what i think :stuck_out_tongue:

I actually was thinking of that. Not too long ago I learned to use SCRUM! That might certainly be it.

More generally you could also just say that Monday, being the first workday, is collecting and processing data that accumulated over the weekend, and preparing to push out the patch. And Tuesday is then the actual patch day

I’m sure it’s metrics. Sure it’s the day with the least players online.

Tuesday so that they can do maintenance on Wednesday after Lauch and have weekly maintenance on Wednesdays from then on

#17

Nobody suggested that it’s because of the Easter break? Do you guys even IRL?
