Hey there /u/adamcognac. Can you please check your DMs and respond to my message. Thank you!

Hey everyone this is actually a bug that we're working on getting resolved. This is unintentional and the text should definitely not be that color. Thank you for the heads up!

Hey everyone,

Fire up and defend the Furnace! The new Frostnite mode has been re-enabled in Save the World.

Also, don't forget to claim your 3 free Event llamas for the downtime inconvenience.

Players may need to restart their clients for this to fully take effect. Thank you for your patience.

We're actually rolling out Frostnite as well. However, some player may still be on the old server and not see it quite yet. I'll let everyone one know when it's live.

Hey everyone, we're aware that this issue is occurring. It is only impacting a small subset of players and this should be resolved on the next rotation (3 days or so). Here is a link to our Trello Card where you can follow the status.

Hey there /u/wempenis. Can you please check your DMs.

Hey everyone,

We've just released a server fix that addresses issues with long loading times and degraded server performance. These problems should be resolved over the next couple of hours.

Thank you for your patience!

RE: Backend-only. This means we hope to resolve it without requiring a client patch.

We believe we have a fix for this and the long loading in BR.

The quick summary is that there is some new code in dedicated server that tries to replicate a ton of data in a single frame saturating connections and resulting in massive packet loss which is not being handled gracefully by client / server interaction so client is waiting on server packets for a long time.

We have a fix that is being tested right now that we hope to deploy (backend-only) in the next few hours.

We believe this is going to be fixed in around 3 hours when we deploy new dedicated servers.

Hey everyone,

We sincerely apologize to players impacted by the storage wipe issues on Save the World. We’re currently in the process of restoring any lost items.

We've restored Storage from a specific checkpoint (12:30am EST) for affected players. We've identified a small subset of players who deposited items past the checkpoint and we're investigating make-good for those impacted.

Players impacted by this have been compensated with 1k Gold and 500 Snowflake tickets. We’ll also be granting all Save the World players 3 free Event Llamas for the extended downtime. (They will be rotating into the store tomorrow, 12.19.2018)

Thanks for your patience!

Hey everyone,

We’ve resolved the issues regarding Stormshield Storage wipes and have re-enabled Save the World. Players are now able to successfully log in!

Frostnite will remain disabled while the team runs additional test. More details coming soon.

Thank you for your patience!

Only StormShield Storage will be restored to the 12:30 AM ET backup, and only for people that were impacted by the issue.

We recently added support for queryable backups which we plan to utilize for people impacted. The backup is from 12:30 AM EST today.

Only players that participated in Frostnites event were impacted.

This may be the course of action. We're still doing internal testing to ensure that no more data loss is occurring outside of the mode. We'll definitely let everyone know as soon as a plan has been carved out.

Thank you all for your patience.

We're still determining impact and solutions at the moment. We'll definitely provide more updates as they come available.

Hey everyone,

Mentioned in our other post, Save the World has been temporarily disabled.

Just to provide an update for everyone, we’re still investigating issues with Stormshield Storage and the Frostnite mode for Save the World. We’ll provide updates as they come available.

UPDATE 11:10am: We're still running test to verify all of the issues are resolved. I'll provide another update as soon as it comes through.

UPDATE 12:40am We’re hard at work on getting the Stormshield Storage and Frostnite issues resolved. We’ll provide updates as they become available.
