Dramatic Server Migration was Dramatic.


Vendetta Online is now up and running on a completely different server cluster, in a new location. This is actually pretty exciting, and more information about this will be coming in the next Newsletter, due out shortly.Unfortunately, the process of migrating the server was not without challenges, as shown by the extended downtime over the weekend. We apologize for any inconvenience this caused. The bug was a pretty deep and low-level mix of different things, which all had to randomly happen at the same time in a particular way to create a problem. Unfortunately, it only ever showed up under production usage. No amount of testing ever demonstrated the problem, as some problems actually require a full load before they start to appear (real people behave differently from simulated loads).Anyway, we tracked down and fixed the bug as quickly as possible, and the game should now be stable again. Please do continue to open Support Tickets and post on the Forums if you should happen to see some sort of major issue.This new server cluster should open up a lot of gameplay possibilities for the expanded universe, and increased capacity, like the ability to sustain loads from new iPhone and Steam users.But, for the moment, we’re still evaluating things. Thanks for your patience during the transition.
