Greetings MechWarriors,

We are scheduling an estimated 24-hour server maintenance for Thursday, August 28th, 2014beginning at 10AM PDT / 1PM EDT / 5PM UTC. The reason for this downtime is to transition the game and services onto our new data center.

During this period of server work, you will still have ways to enjoy some ‘Mech action!

We will be opening the Public Test Server to all players so that you can try out the latest version of the next patch.

Please download the Public Test Server Client Here.

As an added bonus, we are also making all MC-only Clan Mechs available for C-Bills during the Public Test for new players to give these a try!

Remember that what happens on Public Test stays on Public Test: Your battles, scoring, stats and more will not be recorded onto your live account once the test is over. Also note that the Public Test is a separate installation from the regular game client.

Please note, the Public Test server system runs on less provisioning that the live game servers do. While we are not anticipating major issues out of this, we are expecting that some players may experience difficulty finding a match during peak times due to resource limits on those test servers. If you happen to find a “Cannot find match” error message, we ask if you could continue trying to launch until a match is made.

For those who will be unable to join the Public Test for any reason, we recommend checking out our friends at No Guts No Galaxy, who will be streaming throughout the test / downtime to bring even more Mech action right to your screen. You can also check out the plethora of other channels on both Twitch.tv and hitbox.tv!

We recognize that this is an unusually long maintenance window. As such, we will also be providing all players with active premium time during the maintenance/test an additional 24 hours on their live account after the maintenance has completed.

Thanks for your support!
