I can't play, it is open maintenance page. What is happening?

Nuttymut
07.04.14, 18:47
We've not even got into the event and the bugs are showing up.

If I had a choice I'd prefer no more events. The number of bugs that arise around events isn't worth the hassle.

Who knows I may just get wise and leave the game completely :p

AmySafeunderdark
07.04.14, 18:48
Not sure what is going on.
I've heard from several players in the test server (that server is online) that several servers are down:
sandycove, Zeus and Ares (USA server?) are down to.

And the forum is very slow at times..

+1 with the issue. If I get past the screenshot I`m lucky. Then refresh client....

Kruisdraad
07.04.14, 19:27
well the website and forum are loading very sluggish ... looks like there is something more going on the just a game problem ... perhaps some kiddie found it funny to do a DDOS?

this do`es not bode well for the easter event methinks it needs scapping and all future events

BB_Ravel
07.04.14, 19:35
The delay in updates was mostly because the issue affects all of us (me included).

I just checked with the technicians and apparently it's still being worked on.

Thank you for your patience as I know how frustrating this is for you!

i m the same still can t get in also

Ra_V_en
07.04.14, 19:36
Yep looks like either DDOS or a server farm issues, TSO is not the only UBI's service affected.

Edit: Apparently connection response is getting better every minute, lets give them some time to restart all the stuff.

magwa1971
07.04.14, 19:37
Unable to login errors with We regret that the connection to the "The Settlers Online" server failed. Please try to reconnect. Should the problem persist, please visit the homepage and the forum for more information.

If I am unable to login - does this mean my consecutive days login are reset back 0zero days.

- But does this mean my days logins will be reset back to zero?

Same here - no update - BB - Please let us know -

Mot78
07.04.14, 19:40
I can not log in either,just says connection error.
I hope this will not stop me from getting my 7 day log in gem bonus as this seems all too convenient with Easter event about to start.
I am not in the mood to buy gems when i have been saving them up !!!

Lets be honest - BB - too many tech problems -

When a burglar cracks your house window is that the fault of the window manufacturer? You have 0 knowledge what is going on behind the scenes thus your logic fails in this matter.

It says 'Connection Failed' for me - I managed to log in earlier and now I'm in the middle of an adventure with no way to get in there X-(

Lordskippy20132
07.04.14, 20:12
My logic fails - ok
Firstly my window manufacturer - I would check that they installed glass first - your assumption.
Next - I am as you are an end user - a customer - When it goes wrong - tell me about it and I'll be ok.
Finally - You made a personal assumption about my logic - without knowing the facts - therefore I can only make the very very basic assumption that your logicfails n this matter also

As some of you reported you can play now both here and on FB, I need to make an assessment of the situation:

Is anyone still experiencing issues getting into the game?

Thank you in advance for your response!

AmySafeunderdark
07.04.14, 20:20
According to my information (users using TSO testing)
Newfoundland, Northisle and Ares are down or almost unreachable. (long login Queues)
Zeus and Sandycove seems to be working again..

Maybe not, German and French are both working fine (altho french has other problems unrelated to this).
Still stuck in an endless login queue loop, looks exactly like the bug server when freebies are on offer.

I'm having issues. Logs in then imediately throws me back out. Have made approx 6 attemps. Will have another go then will give up. Please advise where I apply for a refund of gems bought but not used. What's the point in a game you can't access. This is a weekly issue!

Got on using Chrome at home but IE at work and still cannot connect. Same as yesterday. 'Loading map then 'Connection to server lost, please click ok to refresh your client'

10.04.14, 07:02
Internet Explorer 10 and 11 are working fine for me, so I don't think it is a global Internet Explorer issue.
I see you already cleared your cache etc,etc so that should be covered. Since I know of no other things to try at this point, I have to ask you to check out How to clear cookies (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/25422-HOWTO-Delete-your-browsing-history-clear-cookies) to see if you might have missed a step.

If it is possible try to install chrome at work to see if you can load the game in there?
Might it be possible that your work introduced additional restrictions on internet use, which might be preventing the game from actually loading?

You can also contact Support using the contact form on this page: http://www.thesettlersonline.com/en/help-and-support and explain to them what you tried and provide them with the details of what the issue is.

CricketRulz
10.04.14, 09:16
See, told you communication was a wonderful thing. I believe the version of IE at work is 8 so that might explain it. I had done cookies along with cashe, that was the etc, lol. I have played Settlers at work for a long time before this issue so it is not restrictions at work as I checked, however I cannot install Chrome. I will raise a ticket to see if lesser versions of IE will be supported again. Thanks for the response Fexno.

Hmm normally this message is very typical a case for clearing cache. I see you use firefox, are you certain you cleared everything and not just the cache and cookies for the last few hours? Check my howto (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/25422-HOWTO-Delete-your-browsing-history-clear-cookies?p=237310#post237310) if you are not sure what I mean

Hello since yesterday I have this issue with the game, I log in then when the game starts loading the map it freezes. I can't do anything, move or zoom... no buildings are displayed either. But I can click on the different tabs : building menu, economy, trade office and chat so on.
I have updated chrome, firefox and flash player still no changes even after cache cleared.
So if anyone can help me fix that issue.
