Why there are all informations in Pacific Standard Time in the game? Shouldn't there be informations in UTC instead? I suppose most people know what's the difference between UTC and their time zone. If it is so important for some reasons to have PST could there be UTC, too? I think it's easier to convert time from UTC for people from rest of the world.

I think I've read that NF is located in Canada, so that's why PST.
Of course, everybody would prefer another e.g. his/her own time zone. For me, reset is always during night, not so cool...
Maybe NF should move to England, IRON MAIDEN country - as that's what it's all about here, right? :)

I'm annoyed that British Summer Time ended at the weekend as the maintenance window is now right in the middle of the train journey I usually use to hammer the game, not right afterwards as it is in the Summer lol. Oh well :P

I know what are You talking about. I live in Europe, too :) Resets are at 0 UTC (whatever is it in PST) so moving NF to England doesn't solve the problem ;)

If NF announces there'll be some maintenance break at 10:30 AM PST do YOU know what time is it here in Europe? Do this know players in India? South Africa? Mars? That's the reason I'd like to have informations in UTC.

If they move to England they would also need to move the reset time. Reset should be during working time, as there had been some problems at the start of an event once...or twice... :P

I have to translate the announced maintenance break everytime with google. It's a bit strange, as the game seems to know I am in germany (news feed is still in poor german), but is not able to give out the time in "german" time.

But there are bigger problems in the world for sure! Still nice talking here :)

I use the world clock on my phone and set one clock to PST and use it frm there. Most phones can do this I think - certainly iphone can.

This is much better and easier than googling it. But it’s awkward for other countries because no location is currently using PST. It’s PDT still as Pacific Daylight (summer) time has not reverted to standard yet. They should make it a part of the game so it eventually can tell when the maintenance break is for the local time for wherever the player registered from if not where where phone is.

If [moderator] would have a clue about programming, they could show it in the timezone you have in your device.

Please be aware, the time clock has been moved back I hour last night. Plan accordingly for the reset.
