when you open GW it says noon GMT. Not sure why you want to convert from PST to EST, but it would be 8am EST.

It was going to start at 5:00pm in Australia (at least in melbourne :P) but due to the delay, it's going to start around 10 or 11pm

At least my parents are letting me stay up (School Holidays ftw!)

Hahahaha well this way it all gets confused.
Last info i had was that the preview would start at 05.00 PDT (Pacific Daylight Time).
Ok the time difference between PDT and GMT is 7 hours.
You also have to keep in mind that there is such a thing as daylight savings.

Well 12 GMT is in 50 minutes so it may start then, however I wouldn't hold your breath at the moment.

It's going to start at 1pm in England, not 12pm, because we're on BST (British Summer Time), not GMT atm.

England is in British Summer Time (BST) right now, which is one hour ahead of GMT. So the start of the Preview in England will be 13:00 and in Central Europe (including Italy) it will start at 14:00

I'm glad I didn't stay up all night so I could start playing it at 7am, because it's 1.48pm here now and I know I'd have passed out already :P
I want my Dervish!

TBH, as long as they extend the event end time by the same amount the start gets delayed I don't mind... I just want a full 3 days of Nightfall action, whenever it happens!

Downloading a huge update atm.


"We had difficulty distributing the Live build using our normal distribution process, so we have been distributing it manually to file servers around the world, one server at a time. Therefore, players on some servers will receive the update sooner than players on other servers.

We expect to complete distributing the build to all servers within the next 15 minutes, and when the distribution is complete, we will open access to Elona and start the preview event." www.guildwars.com

New update but I still can't use the preview access key

Every time I close and reopen GW I download a new update. Maybe it will work in a few minutes

"when the distribution is complete, we will open access to Elona and start the preview event." (http://www.guildwars.com/support/gameupdates/)

So we'll need to wait until everyone has had the big update until they will allow Nightfall access... Getting the update isn't an indication of being able to play yet.
