Does WD start tomorrow Apr 2nd or Friday Apr 3rd?

I would refer you to the torture gree puts the English language through, and their amazing facility ignoring numbers having agreed meaning in a mathematical setting except when they reserve the right to have them not do that instead, (in which case it could be anything between zero and infinity) before answering this question with the natural response:
"There is awareness of the question and addressing it is being planned. Thank you!"
Gil - who got an infraction today, apparently for using the word screw, as in, "to fornicate," when referring to MW, not the nail with the spiral groves.

Does WD start tomorrow Apr 2nd or Friday Apr 3rd?. I don't understand how so many people can ask this question, WD is the only event in Modern War that you actually know when it starts. If you click on the globe, at the top of the list there is a sign that says Campaign Begins with a countdown timer. Look at that and then you know when war starts.

That's not what the world of events says. Says it starts on the 2nd. Gree just changed it with a new data push.

According to the globe on several devices that have all received the DATA PUSH, the globe still reveals the start date as 03 APRIL, or 15 hours and 07 minutes!!!

Why does any of this surprise you? Relic said it starts on the 3rd so i am taking his word on it. I am sure if relic told us wrong he would tell us as soon as he knows.

Which puts it at ready for this???? Thursday April 2nd at 2pm est. where as relic posted above Friday the third so the calculations are wrong because the time is wrong or relic is wrong so we really don't know

All he will do is not show up in the forum for a few days. That's about it

His mistake I'm sure caused people to be locked out of their factions.

It's not that Relic lied or didn't know, but the team has communication issues.

Relic can only tell us what they say and sometimes the developers don't know what the coders are doing and the coders don't know what the developers want, and Relic doesn't play MW, so it's everybody's and nobody's fault at GREE that the players can't get correct info... something like that.

I won't kill the messenger.

Is war health the same as RB health?

But before he speaks out about something he doesn't know about maybe he should go ask

If he doesn't know or have the power to find out what's going on in MW, then why is he here?

Actually he was told the dates changed in the game and rather then find out if something changed, he referred to his calender that he received awhile back.

The misinformation is on him, all he had to do was go ask someone instead of referring to the calender.

Relic did ask, and I believe somebody on the "MW team" told him that war would begin on the 3rd.

My point was: Relic can only tell us what they tell him.
Relic, as our liaison, will take all of the abuse for posting bad info, but he shouldn't have to since he's only the messenger.

It would be great if we had a dedicated MW developer posting on the MW forum like K&D has! Pisses me off a bit that we don't and we're mushrooms... in the dark, fed crap, etc... At least we have a player moderator that actually plays MW, unlike KA & CC. But, I haven't seen him around lately; I haven't looked for him, either.

But really, we should all know not to trust anything GREE ever does, from timed events to working servers.
Have to go with the GREE-flow.

The topic is not address.

What do we do about our faction mates who are locked out because they were helping other teams with rb and assumed we were not warring until tomorrow based on your information.

What do we do about the loss of health and full war behind because we need to wait to regen because our whole team was farming bosses which uses the same health. A health pack for each our members is in order.

What do we do about our faction mates who are not logging in to war right now because they were told war did not start until tomorrow and now we are going to get a lot less points and can only hope all our teammates login as soon as possible to realize the mistake and hopefully they did not make other plans.

I'm being civil, but this is going to really hurt my factions rating and my members who are locked out.

Exactly!!!

Opening up factions during WDE opens up the ability for players to help other factions and compromise the integrity of the event (if integrity can still be used for this game)

On a side note, +1 Energy is now a Top 10 division prize instead of Top 25. Gree wants us to spend more money on a game that never seems to function properly ha.

If GREE wanted to, they can code it for a 1x move. No "integrity" would be "compromised."

Perhaps address it here with some compensation for factions that believed the misinformation and had members locked out.

Also the other problem I forsee, will the timer actually count down to a 4 day WD or will it shut things down at the end of day 3 as normal? The reason I suspect that this will get messed up is because this very thing has happened in the past.

The problem here is the person who gave the info to Relic should get some kind of infraction or should be noted not to trust info from that person again. The calendar provided to Relic was incorrect. No wonder why they make so many mistakes. The people who should know this stuff is also clueless or incompetent or just lazy to verify the information.
