Orcaninja Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 (edited) The server timezone right now is very eurocentric. Before this server, I played on one that had west coast time. This too caused an issue for being too centric. I think the east coast timezone GMT -5 is fairest for people playing in the Americas and Europe. Edit: After seeing other people's thoughts GMT -2 or -3 would be a fair time for pretty much everyone involved. Edited November 2, 2017 by Orcaninja Link to comment
Jimenez Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Most of the roleplay is centered around night time, think of nightclubs and bars, slanging dope and hunting criminals. Therefore it is a solid choice to keep the current situation as is. Link to comment
Orcaninja Posted October 30, 2017 Author Share Posted October 30, 2017 Anywhere between GMT -5 to GMT +0 gives both Europeans and Americans a better chance to experience both times of the day. Link to comment
Cranlet Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 I agree. I'm tired of having it be dark every time I go outside. Would be nice to actually get an opportunity to RP in the day time. Link to comment
Critchalee Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) edit: on second thought, this issue really doesn't bother me what Jimenez also said is true. Edited October 31, 2017 by Critchalee Link to comment
Portz Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I'd rather the peak time be at nighttime even though I often am forced to RP in the wee hours of the morning. Games bright as fuck then lol. Link to comment

Therefore it is a solid choice to keep the current situation as is. Not everyone goes to nightclubs, slangs dope, or hunts criminals. My suggestion on Discord a few weeks ago was to increase the time cycle so that 1 in-game day = 12 real-life hours. That way both US and EU timezones could enjoy day/night cycles. "Oh but what about nightclubs!!" - You don't need 12 hours of night to enjoy nightclub rp... I doubt anyone spends more than an hour or two inside one of those anyway. If we bump the cycle up, you go to a club, "party" for a few hours, when you step outside, it's morning! Oooh! Link to comment

It would certainly add more variety. Link to comment
