PTS DATABASE UPDATED AND NEW FEATURES ADDED

Recommended Posts

The Dual Universe public test server (PTS) is reopening today with a preview of some of the improvements and additions that will make their way to the live server in a few weeks. Before we dive into these changes, we’ve got good news for you!


A long-standing request from our community, this week’s PTS update includes a database refresh that mirrors the state of the live server from August 9. Players who created characters on or before that date will find them, and all their beautiful possessions, readily accessible. This should make your time on PTS more enjoyable. 

 

Players heading to the PTS today will be able to test the following main changes:

  • The docking and boarding revamp revealed in this devblog.
  • Several changes to the way warp drives operate.
  • Optimized planet operations.

… and many more bug fixes and tweaks which can be found here.

 

We would greatly appreciate constructive feedback on the docking and warp drive features in particular. How well do the tools work? Is the interface user-friendly? How can we make them better? Your input now will help us get them in tip-top shape before they are integrated into the Live server. 

 

ABOUT THE TEST SERVER 


Please note that PTS is solely for testing purposes and may go offline at any time without prior notice. We’d like to manage expectations that PTS updates may include feature prototypes and gameplay changes that might not ever come to the Live server. 

 

On PTS, you’ll have some perks to help you speed up your progress and have an easier time getting the things you need: 

  • Dispensers that provide most items for free at the Alioth institute district (11) by the Arkship.
  • A daily allowance of one billion quanta.
  • Teleporters at the Market 1 of each major planet, allowing for free teleportation around the universe. For Alioth, the teleporter is located by the dispensers in the Institute District (11) by the Arkship. Three additional teleportation platforms are deployed in space on the edge of the PvP zones.
  • Players can respec Talent points at-will. (By typing /respec in chat)
  • Use of the Fetch feature with no limit of range or cooldown.

 

Feedback and bug reports related to PTS should be posted in this designated forum, which we monitor closely as part of our commitment to improve the quality of the game and its performance.
