on the streaming issue. could they have been streaming it to use little by little over the course of the last few weeks? the 'big' update just being to make it accessable? this would be very cool and would almost eliminate a long loading time...

i really need to be ill tomorrow... i have a recipe for this somewhere....

Gustav Gloomp · Sep 07, 2005, 01:08 PM // 13:08

i agree with u charcoal. i think theyve been streaming the content for the past few weeks also.

It is currently 6am in the Pacific Time Zone. If they plan to release it "in the evening" and in this time zone I would assume they mean 10-12 hours from now.

Gustav Gloomp · Sep 07, 2005, 01:11 PM // 13:11

that would be perfect for the aussies

Charcoal Ann · Sep 07, 2005, 01:15 PM // 13:15

not for us Europeans though

midnight to 2 am tommorow. thats no bloody good.
false advertising! i want on on the day that they say it will be released!!
it it turns up after midnight then they have been advertising all wrong.
is there any time when everyone is on wednesday though?

Gustav Gloomp · Sep 07, 2005, 01:19 PM // 13:19

well aussies are getting it on 8th of sept which is the 7th almost everywhere else

John Waffletord · Sep 07, 2005, 01:22 PM // 13:22

Yeah.. at 11:59pm at the most Eastern time zone of australia and asia, its 1:59am in Hawaii and 12:59am inbetween the two somewhere..

So for an hour, everything is the same day.

If it does come out at 7pm EST, thats 12:00am GMT, so everyone except for the americas will be getting it on the 8th.

I just hope Anet will do whatever they can to reduce the lag. The pvpx weekend was a total pain with regard to latency/Err=7.
I can imagine half of the GW population flooding in the direction of sorrows furnace.

Yes, just after the work/school day starts....

Unfortunatly, I forgot I'm dealing with Americans and figured that they'd have plans on releasing it INTERNATIONALLY on the 7th.. not the 8th as the case is for anyone down under.

Gustav Gloomp · Sep 07, 2005, 01:44 PM // 13:44

so how many hours till update? this is my last question.

they have to straem in into you so you will see an update when you log in. then yo will know it has been released. i do not expect it until at least 6-7 PM central time this evening. (that is the time they have done most updates)

BTW: If you kneel at that monument and talk to the ghost, for 100g you cant get rid of any DP you may have gotten on the way there.

Yeh thats where i reckon it'l be. But isn't it kinda odd that it's released in the evening of the 7th which is i guess, prime time for the American servers as its the evening... but for the other server, Europe it will be 1 AM or 2 AM depending on GMT or CET. Shouldn't it be released to accomodate everyone?

Not that it really matters anyway just seems a weird way to do things.

The undead Mesmer · Sep 07, 2005, 02:31 PM // 14:31

i dont think that its there they said that its gonna be easy to acces but when you get there my my the hardness level yust raised by 100% >.< like coming from ascalon and get straight in hell

and about the time maybe they are gonna release it on the right time for every time-line like for america that central time thingy and for europe the same way (begging for it because if so i only have to wait a few more hours)

well Anet is an american company based on the west coast so i guess it makes sense for them to realease it at the end of the business day there.

makes sense to me anyway

Sereng Amaranth · Sep 07, 2005, 02:37 PM // 14:37

I think it will be accessed from Granite Citadel.

Howling Wind · Sep 07, 2005, 02:43 PM // 14:43

If its released 1-2 AM GMT European Time..then that just sucks, guess I'd have to wait till tommorow to play.

nailz · Sep 07, 2005, 03:30 PM // 15:30

OMG I FOUND IT!!!! you need to exit Maguuma Stade from the southern exit and walk directly east 27 paces, then south 32 paces, then /dance /jump /rock /dance. Then you need to stop dancing and go 32 paces north and 27 paces west and you're there.

have fun all
