Hiya!
We try to avoid the top of the hour to avoid arena payouts and push Game Updates a little bit after the hour. While we can't please everyone, we do give notice here on the forums of when a Game Update is coming via the Game Update Status post to allow Players to plan accordingly.

Your page of prepping update don’t give a clear answer of when updates are going up and usually are delayed at that, we don’t want to sit around checking and spending more time than we already have to for things on this game

Please stop making these threads; it's probably (definitely) so annoying for staff on here. No matter what someone will be affected. If it's you thats affected then you just gotta attack earlier and deal with it unfortunately.

So you want people to stop bringing up relevant issues when there are ways they can be improved upon for a better player experience. Great job maybe you should stop posting

Nah, there are 3 time zones with less than 1000 humans in them

Respectfully,
That post was at 5:30pm; speaking for my restart, it was at 5:50pm. I highly doubt many players are on the forums every 20 minutes, and if so, can get to wifi in that 20 minutes.
An in game message would be nice, even if it said to check the forums. I didn't get the in game message until after the client restart

While I understand how that would seem helpful, that would require a secondary client update to implement that pop up notification and another to push the actual Game Update.

It's always payout somewhere.

Not at xx:01 or xx:02 or xx:03 all the way to xx:45. There's literally more time that's not a payout time they could utilize than is a payout time

Luckily I check the forums between cooldowns!

Why not add in a server side announcement that’s part of the game permanently as part of QOL, there is no reason it shouldn’t be able to be done and actually help with a relevant issue. Especially considering updates always vary from time to time and never consistently drop at the same time
