GCS is a seasonal server with a few changes (such as land based exploration instead of the old planet based). Also included in there are artifact cap changes, which are important due to RT/TB being bloated with empires over a decade old that had gordo'd land to the point where new players simply couldn't compete. The RT/TB servers of GCC are fully unsupported from now on, though if you already have an account there you can still continue to log in and play if you so desire just know that there are no new sign ups.
