This week we have implemented a significant technical change to the way you play the game. Previously our "world server" and our "game server" were built together as one platform. This was a temporary system while we tested core mechanics and started work on the official game server. The new Game Server is written completely differently that allows live 2-way communication between your client and the server. Although the move to the new system is not complete, your client will now start to connect to the new servers and both the World Server and the Game Server will handle separate features. More information about which systems have not yet moved over can be found below. More technical explanations of what the role of each server does can be found on the Servers page.
