Mission Update, Release Times and Pricing Information

Servus Allies,

The Server Slam has been extended for another 24h (it will shut down tomorrow morning around 10am CEST).

Here's a brief catchup on everything that's been happening. You can follow this in real time on our discord.

• Last week we did 3 closed playtests which helped us iron out game server-side issues. We found a critical load balancer issue that allowed each region to go past 1,000 players

• This weekend we got enough players to go past 4,000 players per region which resulted in interesting server-side behavior

• At over 4,000 per region, the system becomes fragile and vulnerable to DDOS which is exactly what started happening. It helped us identify a "cascading" effect issue: when one region goes down, it also affects nearby regions. These are now being fixed and a patch will be deployed later tonight for testing.

We understand it's been frustrating for players who joined during system wide outages. We also really appreciate everyone who joined, because these kind of issues are incredibly difficult to predict before a Server Slam. Hence why it's called a slam.

We will keep everyone posted on discord in real time. Please don't forget to join. We have over 10k players online at any given time, making it easy to find team mates and get valuable in-game tips.

PRICING.

Let's talk about pricing.

We did a survey during playtests, and most players have suggested a $20 or $25 MSRP. It's split mostly even amongst over 4k responses. So we decided to price the game at $24,99 and launch it with a 21% discount - putting it right under $20.

Here is the regional pricing info:
