PSA - Server down! (It's not just you)

Drelthar · Nov 21, 2020

Don't worry, lots of people seeing this, so it's not just you.

It has come back up for me, reporting as OK in the launcher, but it's a lie lol. Infinite loading screen when trying to go into Open. Bit of a pain, but never mind.

Edit: Looks like Solo works, Open doesn't.

Scoob.

Servers now showing as Online, but the launcher screen is now showing "PURCHASE" for me...

Er... I don't think so FD...

Authenticate With Elite: Dangerous again and then I'm supposed to buy it again.

Second day in a row now.

God forbid companies these days properly prepare for a large influx of new players via sales or giveaways.

Drelthar · Nov 21, 2020

Will probly be a CM here in a moment saying something like -

"We have identified an issue with the servers and are working to get them back up. Thanks for understanding commanders"

So... ninja'd!

I was playing and got a Mauve Adder
Now when I load the Starting Application, it now says Purchase

That cant be right!!

Just kicked me off on Xbox and can’t get back on. Make the game free and don’t expect more people on, great work!

Was disconnected when jumping after several extremely laggy jumps. When I went out of the game it says "install" in launcher instead of "play". Yeah, really?
Now I was thrown out of my account in launcher. When I want to relog it says "InternalServerError".

Frontier is spending Elite for free on Epic without having the needed ressources for all the commanders who are new now and online simultaneously. It's annoying.

Bridgehouse · Nov 21, 2020

If you are getting "Purchase" then reboot and re-launch the launcher.

I got that and it's gone away now.

What's your advice for this one?

Got the same, as for the latter, how do you know that?

No idea.

Someone is clearly having a crappy Saturday afternoon sat trying to repair a server somewhere near Cambridge....

Rubbernuke · Nov 21, 2020

I've been logged out of the launcher as well. I try to log on and its not happy

Lukas Linker · Nov 21, 2020

It came back for me on the launcher, but now there's a window saying "BUY MORE ARX IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TO PLAY".

Just kidding. It's still offline, though.

Kekkonshiki · Nov 21, 2020

I got "Install" - tried again and got "Purchase" - tried again and I get the old ED launcher and "Login" then "Internal Server Error"
