Please plan updates better!

I’m just baffled why ANet has to wait until peak time when the servers are packed full of players to do their updates. Can’t you do this during off hours when you’re not kicking hundreds of thousands of people out of dungeons and events?

It’s like a restaurant waiting until dinner time to close so they can clean the kitchen. These updates right in the middle of peak times are getting ridiculous. Plan your update windows a little more intelligently please!

It is the middle of the night in Europe, people are sleeping, and it is not “peak time” there. Guild Wars 2 is a global game. There will always be someone inconvenienced due to time zones.

It’s still office hours at ArenaNet, so we decided to push a game update for bug fixes we were able to push live.

Thanks for your understanding.
