The Pirates of the Burning Sea team is deploying 1.16.60.0 to the Testbed and is attempting to mitigate the lag that many players have reported. In order to do test out the lag issue, the team needs as many players as possible to sign on to the Testbed at 4 p.m. PDT today and PvP with others or attack fleets on the open sea.

A 24v24 skirmish ship battle for players to join will be created at at 6 p.m. PDT. According to the announcement, "we will be handing out ships and levels at the start of the event and we will be turning the sea red with lots of PVP zones." You'll even have the opportunity to compete against Flying Lab staff members during the test event.

Instructions on what you should do when you log on to the Testbed or what to do if you experience lag can be found here. More information on the event can be found below.
