Here's your annual update on Overworld PK. It's been carpet bombed and doesn't exist, I'll keep you posted.

It's always been disabled on the overworld during the candy hunt.

Swamp and left of MoD as well? I don't recall these areas being disabled.

Since zombies were added to candy hunting PK has been disabled for the overworld, or at least should have been. It's how it was originally designed and implemented but I haven't been very active the last couple Halloween's so if it was broken I doubt anyone noticed.

A good thing about this is that these military wars tend to be very laggy, and Halloween is also pretty laggy so we don't get a combination of those two things colliding.

Thank you for the clarification.

Why doesn't the game get a hardware upgrade to handle things like this? I mean the game wants more players right? I don't know where else my money I spend on gralats goes other than keeping the server up and upgrading it. I know you aren't the one making the call for that, but whoever it is that can should be, IMO.  

The hardware is fine. The software and overpopulation is the issue.

Overpopulation shouldn't be an issue is my point, especially if they want the game to grow and not stagnate. The game needs more people to afford more improvements and continuation, so I'd think solving "overpopulation lag" would be priority NO.1  

Picked a bad time to come back

it could be running on the world's biggest computer and it would still perform like ass because the problem is the client  

Most of overworld pk is back :)
