This is just awful. On behalf of Blizzard. I don't understand, why can't Europe get expansion same time, as Americas - those are different servers. But even then, why can't you give a specific time to a region, so players can all together join in meeting the expansion extravaganza, opening packs and sharing the excitement?
Because on the behalf of Blizzards internal policy, they decided(for the t5 and t3) to launch new content under their working hours and regional first. This avoids complications since they get to test and work on stability and "un-expected" problems on site, own region. As a person who's worked with large international companies, I support their thinking.
If you or anyone who can't understand that, well, I would strongly suggest you visited an international site, any site and learn how it works. Then perhaps, you'd understand that a couple of hours waiting for something like this, it's nothing. For stable global launches, well then you need remote offices. Perhaps one day, if the team(and support team) expands vastly.
Personally, I know people want to play and they want to play it now! Though, that kind of reasoning is uncalled for, because in the end. Once the expansion is out. You'll forget that you had to wait a couple of X hours more to play it since it's up and working for you.
tl;dr If you're calling Blizzard foul things or think they hate you because they works this way. Go slap you self in the face and grow up an inch. You'll get you candy soon.
Dude, sure. Nice words. Great insights. Why can't there be a note in the Launcher, like "UnGoro EU comes out 3am EDT" or whatever? Tell me, since you have that experience and knowledge. You wanna push it - fine. But leaving people sitting on their closed packs and guessing, should they go to bed or they will be able to open them in 30 minutes - JUST WRONG.
Well, if you REALLY need someone to explain it to you, sure I'll do it this one time:
Because of unseen complications. It's something Blizzard has learned(most other companies not), that putting an exact time in a "long" beforehand can be more damaging than actually not saying anything at all.
I.e It comes out in 4h. After 4h complications happens and they have to delay it 2h. Now people will go up in flames of pure rage because the "promised" it would be launched after 4h.
They've given a date, it's more then enough. Also, they've explained in more detail on WHY they launch US first, better than I could explain it. A lil' google and you can educate your self in that matter(time zone related it confuses most people at the first glance, but it's easy to learn and something you can carry with in knowledge. Since majority fo companies works the same when it comes to internal events).
It'll be out, when it comes out. YOU don't have control over it, so let it go and let them work.
Don't you think if they could launch it globally without complications instantly, they wouldn't do it? Think about that.
Going to bed now, hope that helped you and other to understand it a bit further. Anyway, I hope you guys just accepts it for what it is and follow my example.
edit: i had to edit it a bit, very tired, so grammar is slowly going out of the window.
It teach you how to reach the high legend bracket by understanding theory and applying practical advice. Written by a high legend player and professional coach.
It's because NA players need more time to elaborate the cards. Consider that in NA they use to input every single card text into text to speech programs because they have issues to understand things only reading them. So don't be so angry weak people have the right to come first (say your girlfriend) .
The above is a joke and is not intended to take it seriously.
Didn't they state that for every day delay there would be 50 gold login reward? I don't see 50 gold and I don't see Un'Goro released. Blizzard should be clearer when it comes to their release schedule for EU.
I play games with way saltier communities overall than this and they never complain about Russia getting the updates a whole day ahead of the rest of the world every 1.5 months
I'm not too bothered by the later release (it's annoying, but I can live with it).
What I am bothered by is that my Blizzard Launcher claims it's been released for hours already. It also just said "Log in to get 3 free packs!", so I log in, and.... Nothing.
If you have seperated releases, at least put in some effort for the rest of the world and have the launcher reflect that.
TL;DR I'm not bothered by the later launch, I'm bothered by that Blizzard doesn't show anywhere that they even care to communicate with the rest of the world properly. This has been a bother of mine since years ago while playing WoW, and they have NEVER improved this.
I don't remember when exactly MSOG came out. I got home drunk at an unknown and to my surprise the packs were available for cracking. I've decided to open them, knowing that at my current state I won't have much memory of doing so, and not go over any new cards so that when I wake up in the morning I'll be shocked to see new cards in my collection :P
