Who’s to say that MMOs shouldn’t get a nice two day weekend every few years? If you’ve been playing Trove recently, you are likely well acquainted with the ongoing server issues. The issue, naturally, is that the game has grown too large in scope for the current hardware to handle, with player clubs particularly outgrowing in size what the server can reasonably process. As a result, the game is going offline from the 19th to the 21st in order to place in new hardware.
For the last few weeks we’ve been testing our new storage system on the on the Public Test Server. We’re happy to say that it’s gone well, and it’s time to do it live! However, it’s going to take some time – up to 48 hours to complete the full upgrade.
The Trion team hopes that the new hardware will result in less downtime, more stability, and faster reboots should anything go haywire. Anyone who logs in between the 21st and the 24th will receive a number of items as compensation for the downtime.
