Why downtime during EU peaktime?

[longkuaiji]

Why does Funcom schedule thier downtime right smack in the middle of EU peaktime for players? Do we deserv less quality game time than the American players?
EU players already pay more for premium, have worse connection to the new server location and now this?!

maybe because the guys doing the maintenance dont want to work in the middle of night? stop qqing...

They REALLY need to lower the price of the sub for Euro players (15€ vs $15 for a game with no Eu servers + not really much staff in Europe, sup?)

Regardless of when the servers go down, someone in the world is affected by having their prime time game time taken away. It's unfortunate for whichever area of the world that is.

Most of the downtimes in AoC's past have taken less time than what has actually been announced. Please be patient and understand that maintenance and downtimes like this are required to keep the game you so desperately want to play up to date.

Funcom decides when to take the servers down for a reason. We don't need to know why all of the time. We just need to know that they're doing it to improve the game.

It it makes you feel any better. The U.S. gets to play during the prime time this time, and the down time is while we work. Works pretty nice for us.
