Darkfall News - Siege Incident Reassurances

Posted by Keith Cross on Jun 01, 2009  | 10 comments in our forums

The folks at Darkfall have posted reassurances to players after an ill timed server crash at the end of a city siege put the results of that siege into question.

Last night, after a siege was concluded, there was a server crash due to an unrelated issue. This created a rare condition where the city ownership change was not fully saved by all storage subsystems.

Any such inconsistency in the data is automatically corrected by the system during the scheduled maintenance window which unfortunately happens to be several hours after the fact. We've checked and we see that the siege results will be saved during the scheduled maintenance. While this kind of automatic correction happens for all things to maintain the stability of the system, this happens to be a major event and we feel obligated to inform the interested parties: City ownership will be automatically finalized during the data consistency checks within the scheduled maintenance window. This means that the city will be owned by the winner of the challenge.
