Hey guys. We're aiming for 11am BST on launch day; the countdown timer will likely be disabled around 9am BST.

So this would be 10AM Game Time.

Just as a note:

We'll be aiming to release around 10am Game Time on Monday (11am BST, 6am EDT, 3am PDT) - so make sure you set your alarms for a good half an hour before those times!

Amended above. Sorry, time zones aren't my strong point.

So why does the timer point to the wrong time?

This was raised this morning, and it's a product of the UK's Daylight Savings this weekend not being accounted for. We'll be posting the correct time we're aiming for in a newspost going out this afternoon, as well as highlighting in tonight's live stream and in social over the weekend.

We'll probably remove the timer first-thing on Monday morning, as it'll be very unlikely we'd have been able to get it spot-on anyway given that everyone is remote at the moment, which makes it a bit more difficult to sync everything up.
