We'd like to thank you all for standing by throughout the data center migration.
For some quick updates on that regard: Our Live game services are operating again; We are continuing to encounter an unrelated issue affecting our Australian players, and are also are successfully urging a number of DNS services used by players in Texas, France and a long list of other regions to update their listings so that our local MechWarriors can get back into the game. A few text encoding errors also occurred during the migration, resulting in forum errors for several non-Latin scripts, which should now be mostly resolved. Work also continues on the desync concerns in-game.
As you might imagine, with so much maintenance taking place around the migration event, even in spite of the work accomplished by the engineering team throughout the Labour Day weekend, we have not been able to put as much focus into this week's patch as we would have preferred. As a result, we will be delaying this week's patch to Friday, September 5th, 2014; beginning at 10AM PDT / 5 PM UTC.
Here is a quick teaser, however, of the features we hope to see in this patch:
- All Camo Specs available for purchase and use on Clan Mechs.
- All Camo Specs available for purchase and use on Vindicators.
-
Clan Dagger-star icon will appear in-game.
- Clan Weapon Balance changes
- Bug fixes for some memory allocation errors.
- Tweaks to the back-end to facilitate our first-ever Lance Challenge this weekend.
