There was a critical database error at roughly 11:50am AEDT which meant that players couldn’t log into their game accounts.
We had to load a database back up to solve this issue. The back up is from 11:30am AEDT.
This means there was a downtime of close to 2 hours and if you were actively playing the game between 11:30 - 11:50am AEDT, then you will be missing 20 minutes of game progress.
We will be organising global compensation for everyone tomorrow.
We will post an update tomorrow once we have more information about the compensation.
This is definitely a serious and troubling issue, but I’m please with the way you handled it. You let us know what was going on (and were specific about what exactly happened too) and the effects on players. And you’re giving us compensation. Thanks, and well done!
