Update, Wipe and Downtime 09/13/09

**Max** · #1 09-13-2009, 04:34 AM

Good morning all,

At 2:45AM EST, Test Center Nova was taken offline for a full patch update and database wipe. For information on the technicalities of what was added with this patch, please see the latest Bi-Weekly Update here.

As noted, the update will include a full database wipe. This means all characters, items and non-static objects which previously existed on the server will now be deleted. This is a necessity of patching. We apologize for the inconvenience.

The update should take a number of hours. I'm afraid I cannot give you an exact estimate at this time, however this thread will be updated with any new information.

EDIT: Latest estimate stands around Evening on Sunday Eastern. Very rough and subject to change.

Thank you for your patience, and have fun with the massive updates that are coming on to the Test Center today!

Careful, you might throw your shoulder out like that, don't want to be doing yourself an injury.

I'm so glad! Good job dev's! I noticed a few people getting antsy and skeptical that this will ever be done, well you just took a HUGE leap forward and showed them! Keep up the good work!

Just a quick question about this update, as I understand it dosnt contain the object restructure work, so unless Im wrong, will all characters and items get deleted again when the object restructure goes live ?
