PDT simply means that it's Pacific Standard Time observing Daylight Savings Time, or as they call it Pacific Daylight Time. Has nothing to do with AM or PM..

The D works the same in all time zones (EST = EDT etc...) It is the formal way to mark the time but most people don't care. :)

Wrong, that's 2am. 2pm would be 14:00 PDT. It's 24 hour military time.

Expect not to play at all on August 8th. ^^

What does Daylight time have to do with AM or PM? It's not clear.

What caught my attention more is that the dates are different. People at this site have looked at German and Japanese sites and read more clearly that it's 18 hours.

EDIT: I hate my fingers. Sometimes they make typos just to spite me.

Could be 8pm to 2am, or 8am to 2pm, they didn't exactly specify.

But going with 24 hour time (They need to add zeros before the hours then) then yes, 18 hours.

The above was from the last update. So yes, they go by the 24 hour time.

And yeah, 18 hour.

Woohoo, does this mean added bandwidth and more security. I'd like it if they figured a nice filtering scheme to stop the DDoS.

I see 'server upgrades' as the biggest fixes of all, plus they're likely preparing for the 360 release.

word. d(^.^)b
(following message is to everyone, not above poster)

but to quote and unknown person: "God, now I have to go out and watch the sun and ****."
or not :P get to play til 16:00 in sweden... then it's fixed next day as I wake up ^^ yay... no sun for me :D I outsmarted the sun! by living here!

(^irony...^) I only find fixes possitive. You CAN do something else that day... The world is not gonna end... And SE doesn't suck >.< if they did, then why are you loving their game so much that you can't find ANYTHING else to do for one single day every now and then? And I noticed someone said "Nice b-day present SE..." I mean, WTF? were you planning on playing a game on your birthday dude? <,< that's.... too odd... anyway, I'm out. peace.

Well I can't say I hate SE but I really think they're doing a pretty good job ******** over this game. They're wrecking the economy by putting all that crap in the BCNMs, and seeing as I camped NMs for money, those Rare/Ex ones aren't gonna help in the least...
Oh well. I'm gonna keep playing 14 hours a day =/

Get the hell outside. Maybe find a girlfriend?

14 hours a day means you are anti-social and that you're wayyyyyyy too addicted.... You play more then 1/2 the day...

And by making the drops rare/ex they are HELPING the economy and new players that find it so hard to find DECENT items for under, 800k? It's ******** like you that ruin the game, not SE. Maybe if you guys learned not to inflate the price of items, the update wouldn't have happened?

I play as much i can but hell i still go out on weekend (I rarley play weekends anyways) but some people like the above complainer are just losers....ssorry but you are mate if you think new servers and vital maintance are ******** you over. As for the others complaining about the money SE get from you...THEN DONT PLAY THE GAME cancel your account if your gonna complain about the game SE uses the money they get wisely (But yeah they are in it to make a profit aswell like every other business in the world) as updates and new servers show.
