Test Servers

Test Servers
Test servers are an interactive feature were developers make a link active to test a new update that is coming out.

They are announced in the Surviv.io Discord server's announcement channel, making banned members/non-discord users in a high chance of not getting participation on it.

When opened, they generally are expected to be active for 1-2 hours; enough time to report bugs and possible glitches. They are also commonly used to spread leak informations to those who didn't had presence on the testing event. The server is acessible through ptr.surviv.io.

Note: the link may obviously not be active all time, as it only gets online when an update is coming on.

Trivia

 * The first time a test server actually inflicted the main game's gameplay was in the "Give me a quest" update, launched on October 18, 2019, which earning experience and loadouts on the test server actually changed the main game's ones.
 * Test servers are opened generally around the afternoon-night, and then the update is released in one day or two.
