Like Puffer said, this is when a new game build aka patch is about to be released. During this time PvP servers come down until the build launches. I would advise you do not attempt to PvP during this time as you can sometimes get stuck trying to accept a match and earn a loss received on your record.

Hope that helps!

I’ve been looking into this, and I hope to have something in the next PvP drop that will reduce the downtime after a build.

The change is a non-trivial risk so may not be ready in time.

how about downtime before the patch? is it possible to reduce? waiting 1-3 hours to get the patch is ….

Sorry, yes, this should reduce that downtime.

Sorry guys. This change had to be pushed back due to a bug, and will not be included in the next PvP drop.

I hope to have the problem resolved and include this fix in the following drop.
