Hello,
We confirm the game servers are back online and we are sorry again for this downtime. For all the reasons explicited by Matt above, we are working hard to make sure the game runs smoothly. We are still investigating the long delays while loading in character selection previously reported.
For players asking for the commander start date, while no date has been disclosed yet, it will be once the game runs smoothly so you can fully take advantage of the commander features with no time wasted due to any technical issue.
We will keep you informed as soon as we have more informations.
Thank you,
Rax
