Alright, so , either its my lack of sleep or im just  riding on retarded lately.

Take part in the sizzling action in Aion this Fourth of July/Canada Day weekend! The third closed beta event starts with a bang this holiday weekend on Thursday, July 2 (12:00 PM PT, 9:00 PM CEST, 8:00 PM BST)

 

Alright, when it says it starts on Thursday July 2nd at 12:00 PM does that mean wednesday night?

Or does that mean it starts Thursday night at midnight?

xD

 

Any help would be appreciated lol.

Well '12:00pm' in any instance is considered during the day (IE: Lunch Time) - '12:00am' is midnight (IE: nightime). So from what you wrote it appears it will go LIVE on Thursday during the afternoon.

CEST = Central European Standard Time

PT = Pasific Time

BST = Brittish Summer Time

PM = Past Miday

AM= After Midnight

That meens if you are from UK you can start play 8:00 PM Thursday

If you are from Sweden that meens 1 hour later 9:00 PM "21:00"

If you are from germany it meens you can start play 9:00 PM

And if you are from US i dont know since that is on the other side of the world and there clock is behind ours but PT 12:00 Noon

Im a bit confused myself with all the time zones envolved with the into. Here is what i think is correct for the US.

Noon Pacific Time

10 AM central time

9 AM eastern time

Dont hold me to it but i think this is correct. 

It has to be true, i have internet links.

I am sorry your Definition of AM and PM are so wrong... it hurts man...

AM - ante meridiem (a.m., Latin: "before mid day" [English]: "before noon"]

PM - post meridiem (p.m., Latin: "after mid day" English: "after noon")

 Its PM " Past Midday" wich is during eavning.

 

Sorry but the Beta test are for NA "North America" but many of us from Europa  got a chance.

I will translate it easy 

The third closed beta event starts with a bang this holiday weekend on Thursday, July 2 (12:00 PM PT, 9:00 PM CEST, 8:00 PM BST) and ends Monday, July 6 (12:00 PM PT, 9:00 PM CEST, 8:00 PM BST)...
 

Directly said.

 

CEST = Central European Time wich involves Germany Poland, and coutries nearby can start to play Aion Beta at thursday Eavning at 9:00 PM "21:00"

PT = Pasific Time "United States Of America" Somewhere can start to play Aion Beta at 12:00 Pm wich is on the middle of the day.

BST= Brittish Summer Time UK and that grid can start to play Aion Beta at 8:00 PM "20:00" at the Eavning

Sorry but there will not be any testing at the morning for us Europeans, eaven if you whant to

US times are and have been the same every beta preview weekend so far. It goes like this:

12:00 pm Pacific Time / PT / PST / PDT
1:00 pm Mountain Time / MT / MST / MDT
2:00 pm Central Time / CT / CST / CDT
3:00 pm Eastern Time / ET / EST / CDT

I only posted the ?ST / ?DT because some people just get confused and find it easier to read like this. As stated previously, these times have never changed for us in the United States. And I doubt they have changed anywhere else. Here is a great link that will help anyone.
