Hello everyone, we have multiple teams working on the latency issues affecting players at this time. We are finalizing some details in our upcoming article to shed some transparency on the situation. At this time we are aware of the multiple crashes (without error codes) happening today as well. I just want to let you all know we have server technicians as well as our awesome team at Toadman working hard in addressing these matters. I want to thank you all for your patience and understanding. We'll post an update as soon as some final polishes are in place.

Just a minor heads up, we are in active discussion about this situation. Once we have an update ready to share, we'll publish an article.

I am pinning this thread for better visibility on the topic relating to reports of higher than normal latency issues on the North American server. The team is fully aware of the situation and is working on an investigation at this time. As soon as we have an update ready to share we'll post it here and on our social media account on X. Thank you for your patience. No further postings reporting this issue are required at this time. If we require further details we will let everyone know via our social media accounts and here in this thread and in the announcements section. Once again, thank you for your patience and understanding, we hear you loud and clear soldier. Read more

Thank you everyone who participated in this past weekend's event! We are excited to see so many folks hyped about the upcoming server merge. I've been reading your comments and I want to first say: first, be kind to one another. Agree to disagree if you must but stop fighting on the forums. Permanent warnings will be given out from now on. If you receive too many warnings you will get banned from the forums so please behave. Regarding the results and the concerns, I understand the sentiment around the heavy push in favor of NC and TR but it is within the event parameters. This however will bring us more insight for future events and we will consider this a factor going forward. As for the final results, we will make an announcement on Wednesday. Your new banners will be ready in time by April 25th during the second event which you can read about here. Once again, thank you everyone for your participation, see you soon! Read more

Could you please give the community more information about the location of the Merged Server? US-EAST would decimate the Aussie's and Kiwi's that play on Connery from Oceania as the ping is too high for them to US-EAST. "

Just like our EU merge we will be monitoring for severe widespread server latency and performance issues but not until after the merge.

Mithril, can we please get a better exact definition of what is meant by "map control captures"? Does this mean individual base captures or does it mean Alert wins locking the continent and controlling the entire map? Knowing this for sure will definitely help / change how the event is played. It is hard to plan for, not knowing the exact metric being evaluated. Thanks!"

We will be looking at the overall alerts won per faction by 11:59 PM Sunday.

I've got my main vs on Emerald, and an alt relatively new vs on Connery. What'll happen?"

Both will exist on one server. At the server selection screen you will see the newly named na server with your na characters.

Mithril, would it be possible to choose which server to migrate to. I would like to move some characters from Connery to Miller. I leveled up my emerald alternative characters already and don't necessarily need 2 NSO and 2 NC char on the new NA server. I would like to move them to Miller. Main reason is because I have have made good progress towards unlocking auraxium weapons on those characters, while on emerald I have unlocked the auraxium weapons I want. Perhaps you can sell the auraxium bundle for 1 character unlock at a steep price."

Unfortunately not, however if we have future plans to permit something like this we'll be sure to let everyone know in our news and announcements. Read more
