CCP said that the second phase of the update would start at 20:00 GMT and would take 24 hours to complete, so what time is that EST? I know I should use a time zone converter, but I'm really bad with time zones If you know the time please respond to the thread! Can't wait to start playing! |

GMT is the time at the prime meridian - basically it's the time zone in London. GMT is also know as UTC. Eve/Dust time will all be GMT to give a standard to all people in game.
Also you can go here:
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html
Easiest way is to see what your GMT +/- is. For example, Central time in the US is GMT -6. This means that 20:00 GMT equals 20 hours minus 6, which is 14 hours. 14 hours is 2pm. Got it? |

Short answer is 4PM Eastern.
Also, if you happen to have a smart phone download a the UTC widget or app and you'll always know what time it is. |

3 pm Eastern, actually.
Eastern is GMT -5, so 20:00 is 15:00, which is 3pm. |

What the **** is a one hour difference? Seriously, is it THAT big of a deal to miss out on DUST for one extra hour than you expected? The game's in beta - there's no entitlement here. |

I figured it out, I think. We are both right kinda. Zulu/GMT doesn't change, but the locations within do.
For instance, Zulu time 20:00 is 21:00 in the UK and 16:00 in Eastern time zone.
Does that sound right? |

OMG, if we cant have fake hysteria over fake mercs fighting fake fights in a fake galaxy, then what would there be to post about in the forums? Lets just scream like giddy school girls when the new server is up and hope it happens on time. |

From what I can tell, both those timers are wrong, the first one is counting up from 2 n a half hours ago and the second one is counting down to an hour and a half from now.
20:00 GMT is in 2 and a half hours ...

I'm surmising that the posted counters are taking browser localization into account. I know my counter is correct for people viewing it in EDT. Your GMT post is the best one for people to look at if they don't get TZ stuff. Good post. |

It's all pretty irrelevant anyway, I doubt the server will be onlined at 20:00 GMT. I'd hazard a guess it will be up when it's ready, CCP don't make a habit of sticking to deadlines, either waiting for them or rushing things to meet them, they do what needs doing as best and quick as they can and if they can they'll give us a rough idea how long it might take and do their best to update us if they can.
I'm just warning those that will be upset if and when the 24 hours pass and the server isn't up, hopefully we'll at least get an update on the forum by then. |
