Test Server

Many games proceed to a "Test" server prior to being pushed into Alpha or Beta phases. This "Test" server is identical to the "Live" server however it allows real-time fixes to be applied to the game as players identify bugs. Players are invited to copy their "Live" server character to the "Test" server to explore future game changes prior to them going live. Players are strongly cautioned to not get attached to these "Test" server environments as they are subject to frequent "wipes" which means the data may be completely errased from the server and the game data may be reloaded fresh requiring players to start from a previous play period. Items that appear on the "Test" server MAY or MAY NOT appear in game on the "Live" server.
