Hello all, it is with a heavy heart I have to announce that due to hardware issues, the Victory server has been forced to shutdown. Thankfully our offsite backups were working, and I have delivered that data to the Homecoming team so they can begin the work of bringing over linked accounts to our new home with them. Please if you haven't already Link your Victory account to a Homecoming account https://cityofheroes.dev/forums/account-tools/gameaccount.html/ You will need a forum AND game account over on Homecoming to successfully link your account. With your accounts linked you will keep your characters, supergroups, Inf and items! Otherwise you will have to start fresh there. Thank you all for 5 amazing years on Victory, I've enjoyed hosting our home for everyone, I've enjoyed our interactions, and hope to see your over on Homecoming, where I am still an active part of their administrative team.

Any updates when merge will occur?

I've got an option for 'unlink homecoming account' so I guess I'm good. It should be interesting seeing how the market changes and seeing other people running around. Thanks again to Michiyo for all you're doing!

WHY IS THE DB SERVER DOW? I am pretty sure the data base server is down. I am tried everything, and nothing fixes the issue. Can not log into my characters on victory at all.

Well that is good to know. What type of delays are being experienced? Is there anything that any of the members of the community can help with? Just a thought.

The merge *is* happening, there have just been a few delays that keep pushing this back at the last moment every time.

At this point it doesn't seem as though this is ever going to actually take place. I mean it has been almost 6 months at this point.

When is the big merge going to take place?

I also wanted to thank you for keeping the server active. Its very much appreciated!

If you go to https://cityofheroes.dev/forums/account-tools/gameaccount.html/ And you see a section for "Your Homecoming account", then you're good to go.

Hey so...Bluejay here. What do I gotta do? I have my account on Victory. Even if I don't get transferred, I'd really really like to get the name again and play there when I play at all! Victory for life! Edit: I think I pressed the right button

We have not merged into Homecoming yet, there is no date set at this time

So...assuming it worked, how will we know in game?

That isn't going to be an issue, Victory will be a 6th shard on the Homecoming server select list.

Does anyone know how they will be handling renaming characters with the same name?

I'm not sure what instructions you are referring to, or what you mean by "Seeing characters". If you mean the email from "Closed Beta" that's not us, and their server merge is a different thing from ours.

got the new accounts per the instructions. i dont see my characters yet. how long does it take to move over?

This was related to this: And should already be resolved by the restart I preformed this morning. If you're still having issues let me know, but in my testing everything is working fine.

This all started just yesterday. I hoping this gets fixed soon.

This should be fixed by the server restart I just did. Verified I can enter missions and new maps with no problem.

Started last night and brother is having the same issue. Have tried for over 12 hours but still having same issue. Says map load error.

Same here. My brother is having the same problem.

I'm having a hard time completing missions on my second character. My first character had no issues, but my second character is coming across map issues where every time i try to enter a building the error message reads, "map is not found". Is there something that can be done about this?

Global emails should transfer over with no issue. Currently Character Items migrate, but not Account Items. The migration code is still being written though so don't worry about claiming account items just yet.

No issues linking for me. Do you know about email items? should i make sure to claim my account items before the move?
