Title: umm splain please ^^
Post by: Ben 10 on August 09, 2008, 12:00:06 pm

Well. actually i dont understand this things of :
4) New Servers / Hardware upgrade
On Monday we will Order 3 new servers to (eventually) replace our current servers. We expect 24 hours to 48 hours until they get delivered. The new servers will be almost double as powerful as the current machines.

The Main Server will continue to run on the Old Servers until we do the Episode Update. This means that both the Episode Update will go very smoothly ( probably a matter of 30 minutes ish , if everything goes well ) and that you all will have a much less laggy experience on the new Episode.

Also, the current Test Server will be merged together with the 3 new servers, so we will have 4 zones instead of 3. Skellington will also be moved to the new zone in an attempt to make it less laggy.
Currently we use Dual Xenons with 1.6 Ghz and 2 Gb of Ram
We will upgrade to Dual Xenons with 3 Ghz per core and 4 GB of ram, and even 6 GB for the Database Server. The database server will also boast 4 x 10k RPM Raptors in a Raid 10 array.

5) Test Server Event
Soon, we will hold a ongoing event on the test server. The rewards for exploring on the test server are event coins, which may later be traded in for unique pets and an exclusive, non-donatable, test server event headgear on the main server. These special rewards will not be dropped by monsters, nor will they be available for donation.

Soooo, i want to understand what they mean. and well, actually i am usint the AnthemOld Server because i cant use the normal one cuz i cant update my sakray, too much time.

To put it simply, we'll be getting an episode update soon. They ordered new servers to reduce lag and run the game more efficiently. If you can't update your sakray go here and download a more recent version:

Without a recent Sakray you won't be able to play Anthem.
