Wurm Online News - Wurm Online to Re-open May 5

Posted by Keith Cross on May 02, 2007  | 4 comments in our forums

Last week, Wurm Online suffered from an unfortunately timed server crash. The makers of the game estimate that "more than 500 000 hours worth of playing time has been wiped away." The good news is that the game will be up and running on May 5th and players will be reimbursed for the lost time.

The latest off-site backup was too old. We will reset Wurm Online totally. It will once again be that huge forest infested with creatures, awaiting your colonisation.

The game will open again on the 5th of May at 1600 hrs Central Europe/Stockholm (0900 in US/Central), with a promise to make automatic off-site backups and other safety measures we can think of. Up until then we will carefully generate new maps, look over the database structure so that it will put less stress on the disks and write reimbursement code.

Old players will be able to retrieve all gold they ever purchased, and of course retain their premium time plus two weeks bonus. The reimbursement will be based on the email you create the account with. Hopefully we can recover the Ageless title from the backup, and with it the Bok.

Get the details here.
