Earlier siege times

I hear people complain about the times of siege a lot and quite frankly I agree with them. The time to enter siege war is late at night for a lot of people and I believe that it should be moved back one hour. Maybe 9pm est time would be good. It would be nice to have an earlier siege time all the time instead of having to wait later in the year for it.

Not too sure what you mean by waiting until later in the year... unless you're in like arizona, hawaii, or somewhere else outside the US. We always get that week or two grace/fail period in which the server timers are all screwy cuz of the time changes. Sometimes to the players liking, sometimes to the disliking. However, we always go back to 10pm est in the end.

BTW, Sunday, November 4, 2012, 2:00am is our next change. Lets see if we cant get that on at least a sticky note someplace.

I'd love it to be as early as 10pm. Currently, I'm playing it at 3am...

Yeah... no, no one wants the server times to match allow things to be convenient for EU and inconvenient for people actually in North America.

Anyhow as is, I'm fine with the time and I live on the east coast, if anything I personally like siege to be a little later, hell there've been times where I've went out and seen a movie at 8 and been home in time for siege, it works out fairly nicely that way.

Well living in Arizona where time never changes cause were lazy and rather clean our guns, we have siege 7pm half the year and 8pm the other half. So that's fine for me, if it were any earlier I wouldn't be able to make it for a good amount of sieges. So keep it how it is.

10pm EST is fine. Hell of a lot better than when we had it at 11pm EST for several weeks after the time change. Is anyone thinking about the west coasters in this thread, though? Changing it to 9pm EST would make it 6pm for them...which is a much more unfair time. The current time is fair to both sides of the country. Not too late for the east coast, not too early for the west coast.

I think 9pm east time would be perfect. 10 pm is kinda late... More people would participate !

why they don't make twice siege per day? one morning siege and one night siege?

Because the current siege is still in beta. Let's get them to officailly call it a finished product before they start having more than one a day. lol

Yeah, 6 pm siege on west coast... no thanks. I'm fine with 7pm. I'd like to keep eating and playing RoM seperate. Eating while playing is a major sign that you need to get help for an MMORPG addiction :D

Its either screw over the east coast or screw over the west coast. You cant have it both ways.

Siege, what's that?

BTW, i I remember correctly, last year, until they fixed servers (next maintenance) SW time was 11PM for east. Wonder if we will experience this again.

Yes here in AZ (where time never changes) when they do DST on RoM we go from siege at 7pm to 8pm. But for the first week its always screwed up. And each year they make the same mistake, its kind of funny.

Put siege at twice a day or something, then you and your guild can register best for the time zone you are in
