Well it is a game made in North America(need confirmation), it only make sense.

I'm sure there will be a mod sometimes in the future.

I hope so...........

+1. I live in US and use 12 hour, but I can definitely see this being annoying for those that use 24. A checkbox in the options that flips this would be great for accessibility!

I've been playing compouter games for 25 years and I still haven't wrapped my head around this silly (from my POV) AM/PM system. 24-hour time > Everything.

From Quebec, we always used 12-hour format. I've heard "13 o'clock" before but it sounds real odd.

At least in the US Army, we'd say "at thirteen hundred" or "at thirteen hundred hours". "13 o'clock" does sound weird.

Me too, how about a petition!?!?!

An alarm clock to wake up a few hours earlier would be a nice addition.

To be fair, the 24 hour system sounds just as silly from the other side.

I guess but I can't really get why. 24-hour time involves far less confusion. I mean out of the 270-something countries in the world, 19 uses 12 hour time.

Might be silly, might be not. We all have tendency to follow "traditions"
In a 24 clock user, some might mess A.M P.M thingy, cause a missed schedule at best, lost entire event at worst. However, for some that use 12 hours, it's stupid to mix it up. It like switch your dinner and breakfast. So a switchable clock system might come in handy in this case

Involves far less confusion in your opinion, sure.

12am is midnight 1am-11 am are morning hours... 12pm is noon... 1opm -11pm are afternoon hours... its really not that complicated military time aka 24 hour works jsut as well its only real advantage is it doesnt leave anyhting up to misunderstanding there is no repeat times so if someone say be here at 10 you will automatically know it is 10 am...

Not sure how others do it, but I've always heard 24 hour time spoken as x hundred hours, rather than o'clock. So 1 in the afternoon is thirteen hundred hours and if you need to add minutes, for example half past one, it would be thirteen thirty.

I tried to look up how many countries use a 24h clock vs. a 12h clock but I didn't find a solid list.

I did find the graphic at the bottom of this page[travel.stackexchange.com] interesting, though.

Roughly, it would seem that 12h vs. 24h usage is about 50/50 across the world.

Not that this is in any way important to the present discussion, but... found it neat, and thought I'd share.

Speaking of time, dooes anyone feel time runs faster when you're in the mine?

It definitely feels that way to me as well. I've always assumed it was just my imagination, though.

It's just a matter of whatever you're used to.

I've grown up using both, so either is fine, but I still find the 12h clock easier/use it more, personally. With the 24h clock, I have to "translate" it in my head to a 12h clock, so it takes a fraction of a second of "work" for it to click.

Number, letters and sounds have no inherent meaning; any meaning they hold is simply what you've learned/are used to. The 24h clock might be more logical, objectively, but when you're not used to it (or even if you're used to it but are more used to a 12h clock), the "meaning" isn't accessed by the brain as readily.
