How can you soar with eagles, when you work with turkeys. |
It starts at 17:00 GMT tomorrow. That is 18:00 BST in the UK and 19:00 in Europe. British Summer Time = GMT+1. |

Originally posted by matrixvs GMT does not equal BST (British Summer Time = Daylight Savings). GMT is fixed. It never moves. However the UK deviates each summer from it. BST = GMT+1. During the winter UK uses GMT, and in the summer it uses GMT+1 (aka BST). Rule to remember: Central European Time is ALWAYS 1 hour ahead of the UK, regardless of the time of year. So if its 18:00 in the UK, its 19:00 CET. So, when the clocks in the UK move on 1 hour and thus starts to use BST during the summer instead of GMT, then Europe moves 1 hour on as well (CET + 1). Therefore, as the UK and Europe is using daylight savings, if the game is due to start at 17:00 GMT, then it starts at 18:00 in the UK, and thus starts at 19:00 CET |

Yes but not every PC in the world is using GMT. Like I said, those PC's in the UK are currently set to GMT+1 (BST) and those in Europe are using CET+1. Which is the equivalent of GMT+2. The point is, bearing in mind that the UK isn't currently using GMT, people possibly are expecting the early access to start at 17:00 UK time tomorrow (BST). When its actually going to start at 18:00 |
