Just want to put forth that having the events only in the afternoon's and evenings is somewhat unfair to people when work 3rd shift... I play the beta every night after work but there is no way I can play during these events due to the time frames... it would be greatly appreciated if you could have events in the middle of the night and early mornings as well as the scheduled times so everyone can get a chance

    Wishing people would understand that these events are more for Bungie (as is the whole beta) and scheduled for optimal participation. This is meant to be a stress test for their servers 1st & foremost - those able to participate may reap the rewards, but aside from the gift on the 26th its all wiped last we knew anyways. Show some appreciation that we are able to participate in a beta at all. Considering Bungies well known history of community involvement I am fairly certain we can all (world-wide) expect events timed for our individual areas in the full game...

  • I understand that this is a beta and that it is meant as a stress test for the servers and I do appreciate everything that bungie is doing for us. My concern is that they seem to be forgetting that there is a large gaming community that plays primarily at night only as that is their only time that they can. It is not that big of a deal during the beta too much except that I was wanting to experience everything possible and discover everything I can and yet the iron banner is closed off to me the entire time because I work during the small windows that it is available, as well as a dead ghost to revive that is only available during the iron banner... may not seem like a big deal to others but I made it a point to discover every ghost that was available and found ones that others had not documented anywhere that I can find. I guess my biggest point is hoping that bungie does not stick to such limited windows for events like this in the full game, that are only available one or two days and only during two specific hours per event as that is unfair for people who work outside of morning or mid day shifts.

  • Dude it's the beta. Additionally no matter what time they have an event it won't work out for everyone. Having it at this time is what's best for the [b]majority[/b] of players

  • There are multiple reasons why 2pm PDT doesn't work for people. For me that time is 7am, not a good time to play games for a lot of people. Easiest solution I see is to have these events last 24 hours or more rather than just 2.

  • I agree with this 100%. Many of us have jobs and other responsibilities to deal with during the afternoon. Maybe a few night time or early morning events would be fair to the players who have jobs. Not all of your customers are 12 year olds on summer vacation Bungie!

    I work in a bar (late nights) so the 2pm is 10pm uk time and I'm at work. Plus if I'm not at work the evenings are spending time with wifey, I'm a day time player.

  • I agree to this as well. Having one early in the morning would be perfect. I miss all the other events due to work
