If you release a raid in the US, can you please release it at the same time EU server side?
It is really frustrating and annoying that in the EU we will likely get our raid at reset, whereas the US will have access to 2 (or actually 4 if you don’t fix the lockout bug) raids as they will get to clear it before their reset.
Please consider doing the releases at the same time in future.
I know this, but it’s such a silly argument by Blizzard when you look at it.
If it releases in the US at 14ST, then it should release whatever time the server is in the EU, likely 00ST. It would be good if they just made an announcement instead of stating “oh, it’s coming 4th June” which it obviously is for the US, but not for EU. We won’t get it until 5th June probably after reset.
US and EU don’t have the same reset day, in the US it’s Tuesday at 15UTC, in the EU it’s Wednesday at 04:00 UTC. Them getting the raid on a Tuesday is already after reset, just like us getting it on Wednesday is.
They are released at the exact same time, but theres a real thing, outside of World of Warcraft, called Timezones.
You see, depending on where you are in the world, Earth now, not Azeroth.
The time will differ. So 3pm in EU Sweden, is not 3PM in United States New york for example.
Therefor when the raid releases 3pm in US, it’s 00:00 in EU CEST.
Which means we get it at the same time, but because of timezones, they can’t make it open up, when it’s 3pm both in US & EU. As it never will be at the same time.
But they do not get more BH runs than we do. Since they have Tuesday resets & we have Wednesday resets. They did accommodate for this maybe foreign concept “Timezones.”
It’s actually better like that. NA usually get the Beta version raid with game braking bugs while they often got fixed before the release in EU happened
Bro, it was released in the US 10 hours before we got it in the UK, that is on top of the 10 hour timezone. There were kills of BH up at 13:00 in the EU, and we didn’t get it until 04:00 the next day.
Why do you care? It’s always been this way, and probably will continue to be this way forever. Unless you’re competing for the world first BH clear, it won’t matter.
