No, it just means that the servers will need to be upgraded at the same time the client comes out. The changes are on the test lan version of the game, but we may not put the new servers up till everyone has the new client. ie - since NZ will be able to download the new client before people in the US, we will wait till everyone has download (or the client is available to everyone) before we upgrade the servers. Once we turn on the new code in the servers the old client will not be able to log in, and they will be notified they need to new client.
If we changed the servers the moment the client went live in the app store people would be locked out for a day if they lived in the US.
Hope that clears it up.
