Not everybody leaves their console/PC on 24/7 so that they would pull the patch at 3am local even if that’s when it was released. It’s far from reckless. It’s not the game companies job to make sure the network works. That’s our job. On Sat, Jan 25, 2020 at 14:37 Darin Steffl <darin.steffl () mnwifi com> wrote:
Shouldn't game patches like this be released overnight during off-peak hours? Fortnite releases their updates around 3 or 4am when most ISP's networks are at their lowest utilization. It seems somewhat reckless to release such a large patch during awake hours.
