I feel that only two Level X purges happening simultaneously can crash the server. It’s consistently spawning NPCs, creating a large amount of data that needs to be transferred.
Testing these updates on two or three servers shouldn’t be a problem, but on 100+ servers with at least 3-4 players each, it’s sufficient.
Once again, they released an update at the end of the week, on Thursday, not Friday like last time (the decay timer updates). It’s still problematic; you can’t expect your game to work as intended when you leave only one day for fixes – that’s not a wise approach.
Why not schedule updates for Monday morning? If something like this happens (and it surely will happen again), they have the entire week to address it. Most players wouldn’t be upset because some are at school, and some are at work, so they can take a break from the game to focus on other things.
