Wed, Feb 20: A client update will be provided. The update will provide eight (8) available slots for EA-Land. Characters from ALL cities (except Test Center 3) will be filling those slots. (Important Note: if you have more total characters than eight (8) in those cities some of characters will no longer be available so make room for all your characters).
<font color="blue"> Thu, Feb 21: All cities except EA-Land and Test Center 3 will go offline permanently.</font>
Tue, Feb 26: Test Center 3 will go offline for a few hours for data center and database migration.
Wed, Feb 27: EA-Land will go offline for a few hours for data center and database migration.
Caveat: There are a lot of elements involved behind the scenes involving a few groups. The dates may change by 1-2 weeks.
Moves and Merges
The shutdown does NOT affect moves or merges. We will continue to move and merge characters until the cities are empty.
Moves (a.k.a. Bullet Train): The moves were placed on hold for short time due to a bug with multi-tile objects. Once that bugged is addressed we will resume moves.
Merges: The issues with the merge are being addressed. There is more work required; a future post will be provided when we can accurately predict merge dates.
Regards,

combine the bold blue above with the broken bullet train/sim moveand broken merge that means ALOT of players in the other 10 cities will have NO sims to play at all if they do not have an EA Land sim or TC3 sim. In essece they're now forced into EA Land/TC3 whether they wanted to this early or not. Worst part is with vbugs, broken things if they don't already have sims there they won't until things are fixed corectly. Some players will obviosly be left with no sims to play.
