We will be moving the game server to a new location today. Because of this, the game server will be offline for a short time. We expect it to take less than 30 minutes unless something unforseen happens.
The web site will be not be affected by this migration.

Nice. Good luck! This is good news.

Server is scheduled to shut down at about 6:56 PM Central time. And hopefully it will be back shortly.

And the server is now up at the new location.
Please report any issues immediately.

Doesn't seem to have reached Australia yet... Or I am bugged somehow. Most likely the latter.

Cannot log on from the UK either. Hope it's not a DNS propagation thing, my ISP always seems to be the last to update this kind of thing.

My "Active Players" graph shows a flat line for the last 8hrs too, but I was definatly in game only a couple hours ago, with other people...

Yeah, me too. Errm, I hope that doesn't mean I lost all the trading I just did. Maybe we were on the old server not the new? Lol

[edit]

Support ticket sent as the new server should have been up for a few hours before I logged on. Now it's "Down for maintenance"

Yeah, I saw the same from the forum time stamps. The devs are clearly over worked, and have accidentally created a time portal of some kind. I think they need a break: https://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/1/30370#363676

"Temporary offline for maintenance" for me too.

So this is gonna take a while eh?
Can't predict when it will be on again?
Aug 16, 2015 Faille Corvelle link
Soon(Tm)?
Aug 16, 2015 The_Catman link
Yeah, still down

Hope it isn't anything major

Still down for me, too. Seems to be an universal issue. Let's hope they notice it.

I would guess that after a long day of hard work the devs restarted the system, made sure that it came up and then they went to bed.
A short time after this, the system might have crashed...

Lets be patient and give them time. It's Sunday early morning (CST)! Even developers could have something like a private life. :-)

That's just a rumour, NX. Everyone knows game developers are naught but slaves to our whim! They cant have "private lives" or need real people things like sleep...

And that is the coolest thing being a game devs... 👍
