SoA update on test server April 1st 7PM EDT

Post by whasf » Sun Mar 31, 2013 4:20 pm

Now that Darkstar has been patched with the latest client update, I plan on updating the test server on Monday April 1 at 7PM. After that update you will need to have the most up to date client, otherwise you will experience issues.

You don't necessarily have to install the SoA expansion, you just need to update your client via POL. This will let you continue to play but not get into the new areas.

If you want to get into the new areas (once we incorporate them), you will then need to have the SoA expansion installed.



Thanks,

Hmm, so is there a patch / fix for people to download so they can play if they just started / updated?

you don't need anything if you just started and updated to retail version

For any private server? I would have thought my server (Ifrit) would have to update to the latest DSP, or am I wrong on that assumption?

If your private server is not the latest and your players have the latest client, you have to update your server (afaik, there is no way to "downgrade" the client).
