ricardomagno Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 If it were feasible to divide it in two (-12 west and 0 east) I think it would be the best option, being between 12am and 12pm. Trying to avoid hours in the middle of the night, work or study time, it would not be perfect but better than the current one . or as it was until now but adding a new one (-3 and 9). beyond problems in the reset, and the ability to solve it sooner or later. I think it makes more sense to adapt to the users' schedule. in the end that determines the possibility of someone to play or not. I'd rather be able to play it with some problem occasionally rather than suffer from the schedule every day. Update hours change For technical reasons, starting next week the release hour will be moved to 13:00 UTC+1 This change will give us a faster reaction time for future updates and releases. This will affect daily missions, arena daily quest, contests, leaderboard, and leagues from UTC-3 (8am) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
test_anon Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 (edited) US players in my competition panicked so much and spent a lot of refills. And we are currently snipping them. How the tables have turned, revanche. Edited May 21, 2020 by test_anon 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max669 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 It's funny how the OP whines madly about his lost privileges - which he had for YEARS - while at the same time calling EU players "crybabies". He also went as far as using the tag "discrimination" for his topic ! Funny guy... To be honest, if the devs had really wanted to cater to european players, they would have put the "day change" time between 9pm and 11pm (UTC+1), which would be a very comfortable time for most EU countries. Anyway, I'm not a competitive player so I don't care much about the change, but I can see how it's better for the dev team and their work schedule, if they're from EU (and I believe they are). For me, it's pretty strange though, having the daily stuff change right in the middle of the day. It doesn't feel natural, like, when you get up in the morning, it's a new day in game too. Now the "game day" changes at 1pm, it feels weird, but it's fine. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHarry Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 I'm a European, currently living in Asia. I have experienced both 5am and 11am/12pm (depending on winter /summer). Now it was very clear that the first was always at a disadvantage. Buuut, a EU club member is still complaining. He always set his alarms at 5am to also have this, but now all time zones are active => more competition. Bottom line, every change is good or bad for someone. It's life. If this is bad, you had it good for very long. If this is good, you had it coming for having it bad before. Is it sort of the same (for me 12pm or 7pm isn't such a big deal I think), then it's like it was. Nothing to see here people. Move along. 😬 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antimon Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 The fact is, again, that this time change 👏 has 👏 not 👏 been 👏 made 👏 to 👏 (dis)advantage 👏 specific 👏 time 👏 zones' 👏 players 👏 but 👏 for 👏 technical 👏 reasons 👏 It is not a matter of fairness towards players, it isn't important how easily maintainable a 28hours/6days scheme is or if it's better to change the reset time every 6 months or to split the worldwide player base into two or more separate servers. Kinkoid realised that most times problems occur at reset time, when things finish/start, and decided that, maybe, is best for this reset to happen when they are at work, and not 2/3 hours before they open their eyes in the morning. Every other possible fairer-for-every-player-worldwide solution clashes with Kinkoid's need of having it in a specific moment during their work time 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator DvDivXXX Posted May 21, 2020 Moderator Share Posted May 21, 2020 (edited) 13 hours ago, _shal_ said: Were you at 0/15 before 5am? I got that error message as well, but battling started working again when my next token came in as a natural regen. (And my display reverted back to 0/15 after the battle, i.e. it was really 1/15 before the battle.) I was, and the same thing happened to me a bit later. Having said that, when I opened the game shortly after the actual reset (at 13:00 CET), I had only 13/15 tokens instead of a full bar as is typically and should have been the case. So they messed up somewhere. Funny thing, as well, is that for once I got a rather prompt reply to my support ticket (I'm still waiting for actual answers on the previous three, including one I originally sent 100 days ago... and I'm also waiting on a reply to the thread I've made about this delay issue in the FR forum yesterday)... But it was completely wrong, as far as I can tell (and also, although I don't mind either way, I wrote in French but received a reply in English): In what world is the answer to this situation "clearly written in the Patch Notes"?... I did check the Patch Notes again, but nope. Not a single word about 15 fake tokens popping up at the previous reset time, despite being unusable, or the fact that the actual tokens would still accumulate despite the bar showing as full, let alone that I would end up only receiving 13 tokens instead of 15 at the time of the new reset... Support seems to be under a lot of pressure these days, and the quality of service suffers greatly for it. Edited May 21, 2020 by DvDivXXX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luffy3637 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 (edited) Just thought I would throw my 2 cents in. The start time is fine. If they want to make it fair they could they just don't want to. For daily contest just run two, every 12 hours a new one starts and run for 24 hrs. That way you can always try and participate in snipping people at the end if you want to. But that would mean giving players more rewards witch they don't want to do. The leagues are tuffer but it really only effects people going for a win, but if they really wanted to fix it just give everyone two free refills one for the start and one for the end so you don't have to use kobans to get all your battles.

Observer_X Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I must admit that after a few days, despite at first I welcomed the change, estimations taking into account my new personal situations took away the joy of the first istant and made me reconsider. Let me be clear, I understood perfectly that the devs stated that the change was for their own good, I'm just reporting mine consequences. The main problem will be the special daily mission during events, especially during the Orgy Days. Before it was easy to run the mission at the morning and this way gain all the idle hours of morning chores to clear the mission: now when I'll have to clear one, I have to calculate time in advance to be able to collect the reward when I get up in the morning, a thing that I am not sure I will be able to do (from both the sides of the timing to run the mission and of the quantity of time at disposal), therefore risking to miss one ore more mission, wasting this way the final reward. The situation is even worse, mainly on the side of timing, in Orgy Days events, as it is difficult for me at certain times of the day to be ready to run a mission (and sometimes also remember to do it), and three missions of two and a half hours each could really put to the test my ability to complete all missions. This makes me see things a little grim for the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B2qared Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Yes its a huge problem for us Americans trying to stay awake between 2 and 4 in the morning. And yes I lost a lot of Kobans because of it. The time that was chosen as being "The best time" is a crock of $h!+. Yeah I lost 2 days worth of Kobans but I came back and kicked all they @$$es just as I used to. Is that time REALLY the best?? I mean who would want to have to stay after quitting time to fix a problem when the issues COULD have been addressed at an earlier part of the day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not an American game, and a majority of players (as well as the game developers) do not live in the NA time zone... Their ability to fix problems earlier is actually why they've changed the reset time, by the way: because the previous one occurred in the middle of the night where the devs live. Now it will be in the middle of their work day. Then again, all of this was already said in this thread, so you would already know if you had taken the time to read it before posting your mini-rant... So, you probably won't read this either. On top of that, have you never considered that all the foreign flags next to your opponents' names in league and contests might mean that you're actually playing on a global server? Welcome to the gaming experience European players have had for 3 years, while your time zone had the most convenient reset time possible. Enjoy!

B2qared Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 I am aware that this is not an American game. I do recognize the flags and the participants within them. Yes I did miss the post that you speak of but I am reading this one. I understand that not everybody can benefit from this change or that change but as a player that has been affected I believe its only right to express my feelings as passionately as possible because the majority of players affected wont speak their mind. Obviously my words as sparkly as they were caught your attention. And it only took about 10 minutes. Wow. Also, my respect to all the people that produce this game. And to you DvDivXXX, game on my brother. You have a bit more insight into this game than I have but its that insight that I find most valuable. Thanks and see you out there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dd089966 Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 (edited) My post was removed by George because he has a thing against people who he doesn't like. Edit: And GeorgeMTO removed my response so I have to edit this post instead. Edit #2: I had a lengthy reply that GeorgeMTO wanted me to re-do because he's a mod now and that's apparently what he can do. This is an ongoing issue with GeorgeMTO and everyone knows who he is for other reasons than being a mod before and now, even on discord. Please look into this @Darsca or literally anyone else besides GeorgeMTO.

Zanko Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Oh the time schedule change? I didn't notice, I live in North America EST, and kept going on with playing the game as usual. Finally got my hands on Darla... the extended time shift actually went to my favor I think. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bhob Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 They changed the time. Before it was good for some, not for others. Now it's good for some and not for others. And then there's those whom it wasn't good either way. I think that having it so that they are in-office at the biggest problem time is a bit of a win for all of us. Let's be happy it's not something like people voting (or raffling) with kobans for the time to change every month, making it a koban drain and moneymaker for them. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pulli23 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) Uh I actually decided to spent money to rush for the top 100 experience barrier (using the 1k energy), yesterday I just got into the top 100 for the experience earned this week.

To be honest I was just being sarcastic with my post and also having lost a couple of contest that I just got too used to winning them week after week, then because I couldn't keep my eyes open for 5 more minutes ( 4:00am ) I lost them in the last few minutes. Who wouldn't complain? I'm sorry for any misunderstanding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here you write that you're ready to spend kobans for 1k energy refills to get top 100 in experience competition and get 538k Ymens, 268 XP and a random crap item? WAT?
