Topic: Scheduled server downtime - 2017-10-22

Server will be down on 2017-10-22 from 15:00 servertime/CEST (13:00 UTC) for a few hours.

During the downtime we will deploy a server and client update, which will clear the way for you to use the announced standalone server solution. The official server will not change from a player perspective, but the update is necessary to keep everything compatible.

At the same time we will also release the Perpetuum standalone server installer on Steam. More info will be available upon release.

Last but not least, I'm happy to inform you that the Perpetuum server will become open source, so we will release the server source code as well.

How exciting. Looking forward to it.

Cool, one step closer to a new era of Perpetuum smile

2 days prior to Destiny 2 launch on PC and on Sunday.  I swear to God, y’alls planning skills leave me baffled sometimes.

Deployment has to be delayed a bit, sorry about that. New ETA is possibly tonight, or in less fortunate circumstances in a few days. We'll keep you informed in any case.

I'd say I'm surprised but that wouldn't be true.

@Zoom, the column I got highlighted in this screen shot:

If people know the IP address and clearly see it, wouldn't it be really easy for people to DDOS this?

100% of attacks can not be protected. If someone wants DDoS, he knows what to do and knows how to find out the IP.

But it will be more beautiful if it is hidden by default.
If you run the client with some kind of safe / debug option, then you can display it.

Thanks for the heads up Zoom. Look forward to seeing things progress.
