is authentication server down?

Max Qarnac · Jan 16, 2019

I just got booted from the game and cannot get back in, it fails to connect to the authentication server.

Is it just me or?

its not only the game industry - the "server guy" is obviously always on emergency call and can work from his home office.

everytime you take a breath you can bet that a frontier server went down

ALEX CAOS · Jan 16, 2019

TheSisko · Jan 16, 2019

We should do a CG - for the servers!

I can get over 700 tons of Computer Components delivered to a AWS Data Centre of Frontier's choosing.

Ironically, I'd noticed that I hadn't had a "freeze" for some time now.

Must have moved the fittest hamster to a different wheel.
