Server News

Tabula Rasa has a server maintenance outage window reserved from 10am-12pm GMT daily. Please note: while we are reserving this daily two-hour period for maintenance updates, they will not necessarily require the entire two hours and additional updates may be scheduled outside this time-period as needed. We may also perform maintenance on additional TR-related servers, such as the web servers, message boards, or login servers.

Please note, Deployments’ implementations may take up to four hours, from 10am.2pm GMT.

A fix has been applied onto the live servers in order to address the issue affecting the Clan Lockboxes. We thank you for your understanding and patience with this matter!

04/11/2008 - UPDATE: These issues are now resolved.

03/11/2008: We are aware of several issues players have been experiencing since the Public Test Server publish on Friday.  Below is a list of the known issues, along with expected resolutions.

• Many players are reporting being forced to Repair their client to access the PTS.  We are looking into a possible issue with the patching server.  This should be addressed with an upcoming PTS publish.
• Plains is currently unavailable.  This is blocking access to some of the new content on Mires, Incline, and Raksha Robotics Facility.  We will be doing a Public Test Server restart later today which should address this issue.
• Crucible is currently unavailable.  We’re looking into this issue, but currently have no ETA on a fix.  If not addressed before, this will be available again with an upcoming PTS publish.
