Please No!!! D2 Rolling Midnight Launch on 9/6!!!
Our friends at Bungie previously mentioned that there will be a rolling midnight release for D2 on September 6th. I know, this isn't breaking news....just in case...see source below.

Start around 1:30
Rolling midnight release explained: https://youtu.be/09rQ3LTW6cA
What does this mean? D2 will be playable at midnight based on your timezone. Sooo, when I log in at midnight eastern U.S. time on the 6th to play my PSN downloaded version, guardians from Australia will have already been playing for 12 hours because it will be midnight in Australia 12 hours before it will be midnight in the eastern U.S. Similarly, a guardian in the U.K will have been playing 5 hours before due to the same time zone logic....etc, etc. Apparently, this same thing happened for D1, although I cannot confirm this, as I was not a Day 1 player.
A ROLLING MIDNIGHT RELEASE IS UNACCEPTABLE! I know, I know! They are doing this in part because of what happened to the servers at the ROI release. We all remember the server chaos that ensued there. I understand the logic of gradually introducing players to the server in order to make it less likely to crash. I get it. I do.
EVEN SO.... I'd rather the servers implode under the stress of ONE MILLION people trying to access them all at once then accept that even ONE person was able to access D2 even ONE SECOND before I can!!!!
BUNGIE, PLEASSSSE DON'T DO THIS!!

Editado por terra mystix: 8/9/2017 4:36:57 AMIt's not like we Aussie's are getting the raid first. Now that would be worth complaining about!!
-
I live in Japan but have the US PSN store so I most likely can't play till 12am est I couldn't care less. No matter when u release a game someone will be at a disadvantage.
-
What...what does it matter? I don't care about getting any type of world firsts. Honestly, this is kinda good because any serious server issues will be being worked on before we even get our copy. Out of all the things you can complain about this should not be one of them.

Why are you guys feeding the lonely troll? Nobody could possibly be this stupid.

2 RespuestasReally dude? Really? TLDR: "Our Aussie friends get to play while I sleep... then I get to play while they sleep. It sucks because they get to rank up first." Get a grip. Disliked and muted.
-
I'm on eastern time, but I won't get off work and leave the gym until an hour or two after the game comes out. Calm down, there will be plenty of time to play lol...
-
Aussies rule therefore wo ho

I plan to start 10 hrs after whatever the actual start time is. It takes that long to get through ques and errors.!!

It could have been worse. You could be on PC instead of console.
-
😭😭😱how will the ❄️s survive. 🙄
-
Gotta let it go. Plus, they need the head start.
-
Aka, I'd rather no one get to play than others play before me. I'm east coast just like op. If you care that much, just don't look at destiny news the day before release.
-
3 RespuestasMidnight launch? I like it… that essentially means I'll be able to sleep through the night, then go into the game store in the morning to pick up a pre-owned copy.

3 RespuestasDude.... I think you're making a mountain out of a mole hill. Honestly.... who cares. (besides the big time cry baby streamers trying to get their stream up before everyone else) Wanna know when I'm going to play D2? When I wake up, and it won't bother me a bit. If i get an error code, or a queue 20000000000 million people deep. I'm going to play something else. While you kids are all sweating over trying to get is as fast as humanly possible, and fighting through the queue, and crying at your error codes. I'm going to be sleeping.

Probably the easiest mute that I've done on the forums in a long time..

2 RespuestasI just realized you are the biggest baby on the forums Thanks for that
-
I'm going to sleep and hopefully by 5 am when I'm up all the server crashing will have abated.

1 RespuestaSo other people in different places should have to wait up to almost a day later to play (because in their time zones it will be going on September 7th) because you don't want them to play before you?
