Server Merge Test

Greetings Space Pilots!

We are in the final preparation stages of our server merge project and would like to ask for assistance from the brave pilots on Great Britain 2 and Global Europe 5. The final test of our script before going live will be done using BACK-UPS, so there is no need to worry about your live account.

If you want to be a part of DO history, please follow the instructions below:

• Take inventory of your account on 07 March with screenshots if possible.
• Pay special attention to the following areas:
  • Hangar
  • Clan
  • Upgrades
  • Skylab
  • Uridium

• Once the merge is complete, log into the Test 6 server (can be accessed in the normal server selection menu). To get onto the correct test server, follow these steps:
  • All pilots with active accounts on Great Britain 2 and Global Europe 5 will get access to the test servers, and they will appear on their server selection screen
  • Select Test Server 2 from the menu (Must do this as it serves as a bridge to Test 5/6)
    • Great Britain 2 Users Only – Open the test server menu and select [Test Server 5] ***
      • You will then be automatically redirected to test6, which is merged with Global Europe 5.
    • Global Europe 5 Users Only – Open the test server menu and select [Test Server 6] ***
• Verify that all your inventory safely made the journey

Report any missing items, or any other issues, directly to our support team using the in-game link or here - https://www.darkorbit.com/index.es?action=support&lang=en&game=22&language=en

The test is planned to go ahead this weekend. Only the data will be backed up on the 7th.

Warning:
If you log on any test server other than Test2, [Test Server 5]*** or [Test Server 6]***, then there is a high chance you will get kicked out of the webpage and be unable to play over the weekend.
Follow the instructions very carefully!

Hello brave space pilots,

The portal is now open. Make sure you follow the instructions above in order to get on the merged instance. Have fun while you're in there, and let us know about any issues you run into.

 

Greetings Space Pilots!

We would like to invite you to the server merge beta round 2. The same servers (GB2/GE5) will be used for consistency. We will open the test server this afternoon and they will remain open until 21.03. We ask that those participating really try to do everything in-game so we can identify any lingering issues before we go live.

Please leave any feedback you have on this form
Even those that aren’t taking part can fill out the form as there are also a few general questions.

Hello Space Pilots,

There was an incorrect version synced on Test 6 that made it invisible for most players on GB2/GE5. We apologize that the open beta was not available as we stated, and that some of you even got stuck attempting to participate. We have now synced the correct version, so Test 6 will now be available to all GB2/GE5 players. Please follow the instructions below to login.

o All pilots with active accounts on Great Britain 2 and Global Europe 5 will get access to the test servers, and they will appear on their server selection screen
o Select Test Server 2 from the menu (Must do this as it serves as a bridge to Test 5/6)

 Great Britain 2 Users Only – Open the test server menu and select [Test Server 5] *
• You will then be automatically redirected to test6, which is merged with Global Europe 5.
 Global Europe 5 Users Only – Open the test server menu and select [Test Server 6] *​

• Verify that all your inventory safely made the journey
