Nameless105 Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 I believe it's counting down to Midnight UK time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CryptReaperDorian Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 I think the timer is going by GMT time. It'll be (officially) released at midnight where you live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanzant Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Yep, that's going to be different for anybody in other timezones. I basically just go by the day counter and ignore the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA5isntAMYTH Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 maybe but if youre in europe and ect. they prolly do it earlier but i doubt it because then they'll have to pay a fine. i think if retailers are made to wait to sell it they'll wait next day..... but im in usa . so there not doing it here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Len Lfc Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Yep, that's going to be different for anybody in other timezones. I basically just go by the day counter and ignore the rest. It's still off by GMT, UK time by 1 hour slow. I contacted mods & admins, but nothing ever happened about it. It's only an hour off for me, but I personally take pride in my work, & I just believe the countdown should be as accurate as possible, given that it is such an anticipated countdown. That's all. But no big deal. The Grand Theft Auto VI Leak Archive GTA VI Timeline of Events Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Rabbit Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 (edited) It is counting down to midnight forum time. it is working off the forum default time the forum runs of GMT by default. That is why it si counting down to that exact time if you don't change your local time in profile settings you will notice your local time is on GMT the bit that some people hve mixed up is the UK is currently running off BST (British Summer Time) which is one hour ahead so it is counting down to 1am on the 17th UK time. damn you tank and your whiskey drinking ways Edited August 10, 2013 by NateShaw92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paper Mario Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 I believe it's counting down to Midnight UK time. I believe it will be 01:00 then in the UK, and 02:00 here where I live, Holland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHOENIXZERO Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Should be running off either our board settings or our location via IP. Either add four hours if you're in the Eastern Timezone or just ignore it. I do a little bit of both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't make me go with my minigun to their studio, then you wouldn't have GTA in the first place. OT: BST ends after it's released so yeah, 1hour to long.

gwaha Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Why've they got it as 1am BST? It should be midnight. Because 1 AM BST is midnight in GMT. And the site's clock has GMT as the default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
