9.5 hours after the event started and you're just now responding to this? How does anyone in that office even have a job? This is one of the most incompetent Dev teams I've ever seen in my life.
it launches at midnight local time for the dev's office. Call me old fashioned, but I don't think anyone should have to be working at midnight unless they are working a position that is a 24/7 critical operations center or something.
Yeah, but there is no need to launch at their midnight. Just launch it when working hours begin and be ready to fix it.
Its not the first time, that this went horrible.
Just remember first time Geonosis, with the added bonus, they went in holiday after the broken launch
It should be tested, so they can launch with confidence. They keep on launching buggy stuff with no testing
Why even comment with such a braindead take? Who cares when an event starts. This is just a case of lazy quality control. The event never should have started in the state that it's in right now. But yeah, let's be "old-fashioned" and just ignore the issue.
Oh you're right about quality control. I won't argue about that.
However, Late night releases or changes for time-syncing over multiple time zones is an industry practice dating back many decades. When I was a software engineer, we pushed all our code to production at 4am in the event there was a bug. That way the early birds would discover it, and not the 500,000 people we had online during the day.
I think waiting 9 hours until people wake up is a relatively sane thing to do. It's a game, not the NWS National Hurricane Center or a nuclear power plant.
They can have night staffs except they don't want to spend money typical American corporate greed.
