Re: Season-7 Release Time !
Seriously, why? This has really no sense at all. The entire world(or at least most of it) should get it the same day. Getting the update at 7 pm in EU was already bad imo, but now it's even worse. GG Respawn.

- @Cro_Pittt Has been 4am for a while now xD. Basically it is the same time. If it was 12am on the 4th for every timezone, Asia would have it 6-8 hours before EU. EU 6-8 hours before US. So Asia more than half a day before US.
I think the reasoning is Respawn is US based. When they released it at 7pm GMT+1 that meant that it came out 11am GMT-8. Aka EARLY! But other than that it meant that all regions would download at the same time.
We all know asian gamers never sleep so for them it doesn’t matter if it’s morning, evening or midnight. They’d download it. West Europe isn’t like that. Now that it’s this early in the morning, less strain on the servers as the Europeans are quietly sleeping so better for launch! ;D
@CompleatBeet buck up bucko. You can beat those drowsy Londoners who think they’re hard staying up but suck XD. So, I am going to wake up on the morning of November 5th to the news of a massive Apex Legends download, new lockdown measures and four more years of Trump.
Can't wait :D
@Koochi-Q Well 11 am is not that early though xD. But the past seasons were all released at 7 pm CET, except for the last one which release some hours before if I remember correctly. And that's my problem. Always US based decisions like Europe or Asia don't even exist lol. Who cares about them.🤨
- @Cro_Pittt True true, but remember after last season’s RD they switched up the content time but didn’t do a good job. It all started with the evo shield thingy.
The new day started at 6pm still, but the new challenges came at 4am instead of 6pm. So you could do new challenges at 4am but ohhh noo, you cant get the daily pack until 6pm buddy cause we have 2 times now for stuff. If I had to guess, they are doing it this way to give some extra time for people to do this week's challenges. But yeah, this is essentially a Thursday start time for most people.
