MARCH 31 6:00 PM PDT UPDATE: We're overlapping tomorrow's Outfit Wars global patch with a planned network maintenance on EU PC servers (Miller & Cobalt). PC will come down in *EU ONLY* at 5:00 AM PDT (2:00 PM CEST). All other PC servers will come down at 6:00 AM PDT. Maintenance in all regions is expected to last until 8:00 AM PDT (5:00 PM CEST). --- Hey there, folks. We're on the cusp of completing the Outfit Wars Alpha 1 cycle now, with loads of Outfits per server currently participating in the Qualifiers. With this being somewhat of a landmark for Outfit Wars, the fairness of scoring has come into question as we lead up to this big moment. We set Alpha 1 up with the expectation that we'd be able to see what kind of meta developed, and use it for a baseline moving forward. And thanks to the enthusiasm around the feature, we were quickly able to come up with a list of potential changes for our next round of testing. However, there were a couple exploits that surfaced ... Read more

Emerald (North America East) will come down tomorrow, Tuesday, March 31, at 8:00 AM PDT (11:00 AM EDT) for server hardware maintenance. No other regional servers will be impacted. Downtime is expected to last up to 3 hours.

Hi all, We've started providing additional resources to dig into the sporadic (but consistent) reports related to Voice Chat and in-game comms - there are many new reports within the last week or so, but given how many date back years, there's almost certainly a deeper issue we've yet to fully identify. What we're asking for is any and all information you can provide ON THIS THREAD if you've experienced comms issues recently. The more detailed and specific, the easier it'll be for us to identify the cause. Details such as: -Comms channels affected (squad, platoon, prox, outfit, all of the above, etc) -Time/date it occurred (as specific as you can be) -Account/Character/Outfit name -Server Region -Specs -Specific circumstances (in heavy battle, in Sanctuary, what was going on around you, as much detail as you can provide) There are a number of other reports on this subforum, on reddit, on social media, etc, that we've been collecting and examining, but this has been an extraord...

As a small gesture of our appreciation and support, we're running a Double XP for ALL event starting tomorrow, Friday, March 20 at 8:00 AM PDT* and lasting through Sunday, March 22 at 11:59 PM PDT. As Andy detailed in his recent studio update, the Rogue Planet dev team took steps this week to begin working from home - prioritizing the team's safety while also ensuring that our ability to support PlanetSide 2 is not disrupted. Live ops support (including several priority hotfixes this week) and future content development continues as planned, and we plan o k... Read more

All PC servers will come down tomorrow, Friday, March 20, at 6:00 AM PDT / 1:00 PM GMT for emergency maintenance. Downtime is expected to last up to 2 hours. We initially messaged this downtime as ~1 hour, but we've since confirmed a new hotfix for a rare crafting issue blocking some Outfits from pulling a Bastion even after crafting all necessary components. We're also including a data change for a flash event planned for this weekend (more details on that will go out shortly). As such, we're being cautious with our estimate - our expectation is that all servers will be back online by 8:00 AM PDT.

We are preparing a new PC hotfix for tomorrow (Friday, March 13) which includes a priority fix for Meltdown Alerts (reverting certs/ISO-4 rewards) along with additional fixes and changes. This will require a server bounce (brief downtime) starting at 6:00 AM PDT / 1:00 PM GMT. Servers should be down no longer than 1 hour. Patch Notes:

• VS Flash can equip cosmetics once again.
• Outfit resource accrual now updates correctly an owned facility is lost.
• Meltdown alerts once again grant 250 certs and 300 ISO-4 for a victory, and will grant 150 certs and 150 ISO-4 for a loss.
  • UPDATE: VS will receive no A7 for a loss or runner-up in a Meltdown alert. We're currently looking into this issue. (Fight hard, VS!)
• Mini-map no longer resets its default zoom level when a menu screen is opened.
• Updated LB00 AP (Lightning Primary Weapon) optic attachment prices to be in line with that of other Lightning optics....

• Sanctuary now has the proper art on the World Map screen.
• Fixed broken text strings for the LA7 Buzzard.
• Fixed two new crashes occurring on Live.

We are working toward another hotfix tomorrow (Friday, March 13) which may require server bounces and a brief downtime, and will update this thread once confirmed.

Global PC servers will come down tomorrow, Wednesday March 11, 2020, at the following times: EU: 4am GMT (est. 16 hr downtime) NA/Asia: 9am PDT (est. 4 hr downtime)

" "Our worship has afforded us this opportunity," stated an elderly voice, more akin to that of cold metal than a human being. "Yes Prefect, the next wormhole will open in less than eight hours. We have assembled our forces and are ready for the journey," replied Acolyte Joselin with youthful exuberance. Prefect Armus remained unmoved, as if alone in his thoughts, "A chance to prove ourselves among they who seed the stars. We will put the squabbles of Auraxis behind us, and the future of humanity ahead." "

Welcome to Escalation We're excited to bring to you one of the largest updates in PlanetSide 2's seven-year history. If yo... Read more
