Important announcement for Roblox users (MemoryStoreService maintenance)

tl;dr - All games have lost data-save and you will be possibly wiped from any game you join
4:00PM Pacific time - 5:00PM Pacific time

wait what the actual heck

what does this mean? If you play during that time you lose all your data? OR are we just gonna lose all our data?

you play during time not saved no

ah well then. Guess I just wont play.

If roblox screws this up, then it will be catastrophic for the platform

Best defense is to not play

Roblox has always been terrible with wording and getting things across clearly but doesnt this just mean that you lose any data you gained during the maintance? or do they mean you really do lose all data

that depends on how the game uses storeservice.
if they use it to save all data, rip your progress

if they use it for short term data saving and then saves it their own cache, your new progress wouldnt save but your old would.

ah ok

Probably.

doesn’t this translate to “lol we’re data wiping the entire platform”

only for those who use the service

nevermind guys, datastore is used for long term data, memorystore is just ram so any new progress wont be saved if the game uses it

your old data would be fine

So basically don’t play games that save progress during the downtime unless you don’t care. Like even though DOORS saves your currency I don’t care if it gets lost because it’s super easy to get.
