These platforms will always be available to be played during Player vs Player related Competitions in Vendettas or other Major Events.

If no official DB servers are found online players may, through mutual agreement, play on another server. By doing so, they also forfeit the right to any complaints regarding the outcome of the match due abuse/server statistics/mods/etc.
