Anyone else getting constant Game failed to communicate Authentication sever - AGGHRGHHH !!

[PeterF]

Cannot even play the game, as it cannot connect to the authentication server - Internet is fine, and now had two straight days of no communication to the authentication server. What's the point of having software you cannot play 'cause it is dependent on authentication from their servers - that go down.

No news on support.

Nice reading about PP, pity I only got 2 days before this issue started.

I had the same problem, found if i logged into open play and then logged out to main menu before logging into group i could play. I play in group play.

It's the server load. After the 1.3 release, the servers get hammered, especially during peak UK/Euro time.

Bump to this, making me not even want to try playing.

Grrrrrr come on FD feed the server hamsters.
