Because of poor experiences with recent massive BvB battles, we are temporarily suspending the availability of BvB slots. There are a couple problems with the current BvB slot design. First, the meta encourages 100 versus 100 base battles. Second, the server currently can’t handle so many bases all in one galaxy.
In the coming two weeks we are going to drastically reduce the number of BvB slots before re-enabling the slots, specifics to be determined. The long term goal is a major redesign of wild space and a new layer, but for now we want to get a system in place that is more manageable.
In addition, to address the server lag issues, we have ordered three new servers that will be delivered next month that, combined, are roughly five times faster than our current server. Actual performance difference to be seen, but it shouldn’t hurt.
We apologize for allowing the current toxic BvB meta to persist as long as it did, and we thank you for your patience and continued support of the game.
