Official Server #86 US

[Coolhwhip]

Anyone know anything about why this server will not show up anymore? Once some friends and I got on it the only way we got back on it was to go to friends list and join their game.

Ditto, I see 85 and 87....no 86

I seem to not be able to find #78 either.

Update on the perma down server situation:

We had to shut down several servers that were chain crashing and not rebooting properly. Unfortunately they have corrupted databases so we need to:

1) Fix the issue that caused them to break
2) Patch out the fix for this
3) Manually fix all the servers that this has impacted

This won't be a short process because we need to ensure that the fix works (so this doesn't happen again). I know it sucks not being able to play on servers that have characters you spent a long time leveling up. This is one of our top priorities at the moment (along with fixing server performance in general). We will let you know as soon as the servers come back up.

That's weird, because if you look at PingPerfect's Twitter, they said that they've been attacked by a very clever DDOS and are still trying to come back from it ! :(

EDIT: And yes, i'd like to have links to these topics please! :)

It seems they are bringing the server back online today. Some of the statements made seem to indicate that perhaps character progression will not have been altered.
