Due to a hardware failure yesterday the game became unavailable. We’ve managed to fix the initial problem and restore access for most of the heroes, but due to an extremely unlucky streak of events (darn this random!), fixing it for the rest of the heroes turned out to be harder than we thought initially. We’re working hard and still expect to have this issue fixed over the next few hours. We’ll update this post once the problem is finally resolved.
Thank you for understanding.
UPD: All heroes should be reachable again. The issue has not been resolved completely yet, so we’re going to keep looking into it, as well as applying some counter measures to prevent this from happening in the future.
Same problem here as Diolo. My pet died several hours before the outage. When I saw that, I bought charges right away to help raise gold. I guess I still have some time, but probably much less (I have no idea whether the clock was still ticking during the outage) and now no arena to help either. I love the game and all you guys do, but it’ll be a huge bummer if I can’t pull it off when my pet is lvl 23 and I spent money specifically to help revive him. Anyhow, good luck with your system.
Is melting gold coins into a brick working? I’ve punished my hero 10-12 times with over 3000 coins all different times today and nothing…. I don’t want to keep wasting my GP if this is a game thing and not just random bad luck.
Thanks Devs, you’re awesome in my book!
Time definitely passed for the pet death timer. My fiancee’s pet died at 2:15 am, and wasn’t revived that first day. She wasn’t able to get back on her heroine until around 1 today, and sure enough about 1 hour later (60 hours since death) the pet was buried. Definitely no time for her to do anything.
Please, devs, I hope something can be done. I wouldn’t care so much if it was me, but yeah.
ARRRRRRGGH! And I wanted to see my hero go into Godvillewood, because he only makes it that far when he’s on a guild-changing quest! I check in on him at 5:00pm CDT, and he’s already at the 321st milestone, past Dogville!
Really glad it’s working again, I was having GV withdraws!!
Thank you for the hard work! I agree with Prosnoopy, had some withdrawal issues resulting in bad behavior.
I think dev should reward us some GP charges after this randomness. ;)
Thanks much! So happy my hero and his pet behaved themselves while everything was down…
My pet was 12 in the taming pantheon. He died a little before the crash and died for good at least 36 hours early. Lots of Slaves to Armok are reporting similar situations. We have permanently dead pets all over – but it’s really maddening to lose one i’ve paid dearly for to keep alive for 9 months.
Still having problems with area lost battle cause of random
Got back in around noon today! Thx for much for fixing it, admins! Was going crazy without my Godville fix!
Thanks soooooooo much!!!
Thanks for fixing it. At first I thought it was my fault that I couldn’t access my hero.
Thank you for getting the arena portion back up, as well as the rest! Although it is a ZPG, I feel we all miss playing when it is gone.
My pet was a level 15. He died too :(
Thank you for being so prompt to fix the issue. :)
The downtime killed my bipolar bear. I never was given a chance to res him. And with in a couple hours he abandons him and gets a new pet. That hurts.
My Firefox was a casualty of this malfunction as well. I feel like I’ve had my companion murdered by fate.
Lost my dust bunny as well. Grrr.
