Dawn, the upcoming expansion for Mortal Online, is set to be pushed back due to a recent server issue that has forced the development team to focus on fixing the issue. Dawn is expected to drop at the end of the month, or beginning of June. All is not lost, as a lot of information, and screenshots, for Dawn have been released. Check it out.

I will start with a little bit of bad news, the server issues that we were experiencing, have indeed impacted the development of Dawn, and as a result we will have to push it back to the end of May, and maybe even early June. The issue consisted of a package in the Unreal Engine doing unnecessary updates, every time a player moved. This package existed since the release of Mortal Online, so once it was tracked down and removed, the performance of the net-code jumped up significantly, coupled with some optimizations we have attained a very significant performance increase and as many say "Better than ever before".
