Hey everyone,
As many of you now know, I have recently taken ownership of the network from Dota. Some of you may remember me as the old developer of the network and more recently the new owner of Wyvern’s sister server, Mythcraft.
In taking ownership I am bringing my team with me and we are planning on completing a full network revamp over the course of the next month. This is going to involve completely shutting down the old servers which as I’m sure many of you will agree are very outdated and starting fresh with new servers and new maps. The new network will be rebuilt from the ground up, removing all the old and outdated features and content.
We will be rebranding the network back to Vortex and discontinuing the Wyvern name. There is no fixed date for the revamp release yet as it depends on a multitude of factors, however I can confirm that it will be at some point within July. The current servers will be going offline within the next few weeks after we have confirmed a fixed date for the revamp release.
I’ve included a short Q&A below to answer some questions that we’ve already been asked and will update it as more questions are asked in the comments below.
Q: Will we keep our donator ranks and permissions?
Yes, you will keep all donator ranks and permissions.
Q: Will you be paying out the FTOP for the current Factions map?
Yes, we will be paying this payout out once the revamp has been released and the current season is over.
Q: Will the network merge with Mythcraft?
No, the network will be continuing as a separate server that is independent of Mythcraft.
Q: What will happen to the staff team?
Groaning will be joining the network as the new Community Manager and will be in charge of staff. He has given the option to all current staff to remain in their positions, however this is up to them to decide on an individual basis.
I would ask you all to join our Discord server to stay in the loop and be notified of any new updates on the revamp. You can join it here: [URL]https://discord.gg/MY8sr8q. [/URL]
Thanks,
Harry
