18th Dec '17 Server is down!?

Postby SilentWarrior » 19 Dec 2017, 00:11

Hi all, didn't see anything posted.

Server is down.

I think I can still access the games played and the vault.
But my last game is still at 'Playing'...... in the replays tab.

I think I can click on Play in 1v1.

Any updates, please post them here..

apparently they're having maintenance.
Strange, if you were doing that, you'd put up a notice, I'm sure.

The server patch day follows a regular 2 month rythm and is listed in our calendar: https://www.faforever.com/calendar
We had a lot of open tasks and didn't know if we would get our stuff together for this patch, so it was a just-in-time decision to do it.

We will try to inform more about this in the future. But we won't be able to give a more detailled estimation about the time.

Since there were some people complaining in aeolus why we are doing it in the prime time: We are regular working people just like you, and hence we can only do it when we have free time, which is surprisingly the same time window as everybody else.

Hi everyone!

The client does not work for me. I can still log in, watch some replays, download maps but the chat and the play section is completely empty.
Is this just me or you guys have the same problem too? oO
Yesterday it was all ok.

I'm still using the 0.16.0 Client which worked fine yesterday. I don't get any error message from the client.

The https://faf.statuspage.io/ says everything is online.

there are some issues with logging in (for users who don't have their acc linked to steam as far as i can tell)
i hope someone will find some time to take a look at the issue and fix it in the near future
should your acc be linked to steam and you cannot link in then please post your client log

My account is not linked to steam. That's true.
But it's strange because when I click on the log in button, i don't get any feedback from the client about I'm not logged in.
Also, it did work yesterday and before, so I think the server update caused this problem for me.
