Guild Active time

Was just wondering when the guild would be most active. I am looking for a late night guild that raids/quest around midnight EST.

Actually, like most guilds, we're most likely going to be between 4-10pm, as it's the most common time that everyone is free. Granted, tea/dinner is usually in that time, etc, but people also need to get to bed on weeknights so they can get up for the next day, don't expect people to be playing from 12-2am on a weekday.

I'll say, honestly, my times are from 4-10pm. I need time to do work and sleep after that, so.

I'm not going to speak for anyone else here, so what I say is my opinion. :D

What is the Local time of the guild?

The guild leaders are based in New Zealand, but this is an Oceanic guild with a large number of Australian players, so, I'd estimate a median time of Sydney, Australia time, (being the midpoint between the rest of Australia and New Zealand).

The time in Sydney is UTC/GMT +11 hours, and at the time of this post, 5:22pm EST. So, I'd wager, now, give or take an hour, would be the 'beginning' of our uptime.

There will be players playing at different times. Closer to game launch would be a better time to assess this cause people work schedules and stuff could change.

Personally with my work schedule right now I would be playing the game around midnight to 2am EST.

The guild is International (although yes, initially formed as Oceanic), we already have players that will likely be on at very different times to each other.

Also: Midnight EST is 6pm for me which is around about when I get playing anyway. (I am based in Auckland, NZ)

*raises his hand* It appears I was wrong!

My apologies, it looks like a LOT of people will be playing at different times. :D

Which is all the better!

Yeah. I'm EST, as well, so my start time would be far earlier than most others, unless I choose to pull all-nighters, which I have definitely not been known to do....
>_>
<_<

I'm EST as well seeing as I'm in FL. I have no clue what my schedule will be like when this game releases but nights will definitely be open. Depending on when I schedule my classes I may or may not be up till about 2am every night. If I had to make a projection it would be around 5pm-2am.

it was actually 2:22am EST here when you posted this not 5:22pm EST

Sounds like there maybe a good number of people on when id be on.

Yeah, the 5:22pm was for Sydney, Australia, and I made sure of it. :D

For me i live in Australia so the times i will be playing at least half of our guild members should be on, i usually have free time during weekdays to play from 4.30pm to 11.00pm

I play from Japan so my play time will be close to the Oceanic players. I work shift work so I will very likely also see those of you in the US during your evening times. I will definately be on during some week days since SUN, Monday, Tues are my days off.

man arent time differences a pain?

They can be. But like every MMO its something you have to expect and work around. Having members from all over the world can be nice though because it means there could be members on at all times of the day.

yeah I usually find a lot of players from either Brazil or Canada on my server and us as a guild have to be able to make a time where every player is able to show on that limit without problems with the time differences. It usually only matters on raids and such though.

we must have at least one user from every continent by now so bad side to this is we will never all be online at the same time unless people are willing to jump on at around 3 am but hopefully when the time comes to play there are a few of us playing together

I asked the same question a long time ago,
I'm form Holland for those who dont know and about 8 hours away from new-zealand.
A friend of mine is there now, and there are plenty of accasions that we can chat. So that would be the same with gaming i guess..

Agree with you Benson, I got a brother in Sydney and there's really no problem reaching him not at night for both of us.

Sydney time zone sounds pretty fitting for me. I'm eight hours behind Sydney as well, and will probably play most of my time in the weekends from 9-10am and forward. So I'll be there when you Oceanians are likely most active (evening/night).

Anyhow think we will get enough members for all time zones when the game's release comes closer.

I'll probably be playing through all time-zones =)
Sad eh?..

for me it depends on the level of addiction to the game. could be quite severe. im based in perth wa so thats +8 timeline. so a couple of hours behind EST. depending on hen the game is released i might have more availability to play. uni and work schedules interfere. damn life... ill be aiming to play as much as possible though...

Addiction....? always....

As soon there is a release date, im gonna ask for a week free of work and I will simply live in the australien time zone for a week and then we see....

When it releases, will probably drag Jacan away from his wife, and go hard-core leveling on it. =)

does anyone have any guesstimates on when we can expect a release date? i heard diablo 3 got pushed back to mid next year so i hope this one wont be pushed too far back.
