Thanks for making this thread!

Like OP said, this was discussed in discord yesterday. I'm currently in the processing of gathering information and suggestions to make toward a time change that would (hopefully) be beneficial for everyone, but I'm still in need of a bit more feedback.

BB raids are currently slated to begin at 8 am - 6 pm pst, which is 4 pm - 2 am utc. A suggestion that I've seen often is to just make BB run all day vs. 10 hours/day, which while I'm unsure if that would be possible, it's the most efficient. Another would be having the raid available in two 5 hour time frames.

That being said, mostly for those in EU and SEA, how are the above current times for you? Before it was thought that the 4 pm - 2 am utc was pst, but is it any better with our current timeframe?

Being a player in the SEA region, BB raid is indeed only open during 12 am to 10 pm (GMT+8). In my context, its a big strain for me to either stay up until past midnight or wake up early in the morning just to run the raid. Furthermore, there aren't many opportunities for me to run either during weekends due to my own responsibilities as a student.

I think what I'm saying can also apply to most of the SEA playerbase here since it really is a time constraint for us. Some of us cannot stay up until midnight and beyond and even more are not able to play in the morning because of either school or work.

However, the times shouldn't be only be changed to only accompany one region. Since the server is a world server and the general playerbase comes from people from around the world in all regions, I believe the best possible solution is to keep the raid open all day to give consideration to everyone from all time zones instead of just having it in a 10-hour chunk of time or having it in two 5-hour time frames where some regions would still suffer from the time constraint.

With all of these being said, I hope all of our opinions will be acknowledged and taken into consideration for any changes that will be made in the future and I hope for this issue to be resolved soon.

Good morning/afternoon/evening and a Merry Christmas!

Did you know that a Canadian server will be coming out?
Compared to the korean server, Enmasse AKA World server treats us like trash. few examples of this is World server being 10 times more expensive than korean server(1 gacha in world = 11 gachas in korean server and that's with the better bitna gachas), credit sinks being more, Korean server giving away +14 boosters like candy, full sets in the store for 15-25$, faster updates, better rewards on the events and way more.
Korean server got their first +14 on this current rice fields event and guess what we're getting: nothing. nothing worth spending your time on. we also havent been given a free awakened tiamat, they still give us only a +12/+13 box per month. closers world doesnt give you options of buying the full set from store like the korean closers, there is no private bm despite players wanting it for months and they delayed beelzebub to the point where it doesnt make any sense at all. You can only +17 lv85+ gear and we have lv83 gear aka purification. giving players the enhancement revamp that involves beelzebub gear before giving beelzebub raid is one of the most stupid decisions I've ever seen. Despite most of the active playerbase complaining about all these problems, saying they want content, better rewards, better sales these are the results:
Beelzebub gets pushed back to the point where its stupid
black friday sales are worse than last year's sales, there hasnt been any good things at all
gap between closers korea and closers world opening up even more
2 Months ago, Rockyroad told me that the gap between closers world and closers korea was 6 monnths. 2 months have passed and you didnt do anything. you have 4 months to release 5 raids: Beelzebub, Misook(A10 Chapter 1),Purification V2,Beelzebub V2, Maid(A10 Chapter 2). good luck
With this its been shown that EME and Naddic clearly doesnt care about their playerbase, what they want and they are just going to go on their pace until the server dies out. Despite the outrage on Task force Nata patch discussion and players literally begging for updates on discord, bear saying he is working on it, enmasse staff telling us Singlebear and BearShoes trying to work something out, nothing really changed.
Naddic shows us that they only really care about their own server(Korea) by releasing the Canadian server despite Canada being a part of north america, enmasse being the world server (EU and NA). there might be some competition on Canada VS World server.
on the bright side, Korean closers are giving away perma signature sets, +15 boosters, 300 washing machines and 5 character levelups. I'll just go there if enmasse keeps being like this

Mod's Note: Please do not mention private servers, thanks!

EMP can be bought with steam money already, why not use this as many other companies did?
I am a brazillian player too, already bought EMP and I believe every brazillian player thought about purchasing EMP and gave up because of price/benefit.
Many games on steam use Steam currency to purchase in game credit (such as EMP or cash). Region locking prices searching for equality would make it more suitable for everyone.
EME has actually nothing to lose with this, as it would only bring more customers in paid services.
Also I'm from UnionProject, which I believe is one of the biggest Brazillian crews, and I'm aware that many players here share my opinion.
Thanks for reading o/
