Ubisoft Masterserver down? (merged)

DocMcJansen · 03-08-10, 09:51 AM

Hi!

I've just tried to play SH5 and the launcher told me that I can't connect to the ubisoft-masterserver. Internet connection is running fine! So am I the only one with this problem?

No problems on my end atm.

It depends on whether you are already connected.

I was stopped playing about an hour ago, then came back and now cannot log on.

Its almost comical :-(

Yeah, just came back from work, wanted to start SH5 and the master servers seem down. Again. Who'd have thought that...

But then the UBI monkeys are at least consistent in failing, since their support pages are down, too.

Hi Doc,

some people are reporting a problem connecting. others are not seeing it. I just finished a one hour session this morning, no problems here.

I've got the same problem here. Was logged in and playing the game less than an hour ago. Then i took a break to get something to eat, and now i'm unable to login again. Bah! This is soo anoying.

El Reg has an interesting take on the situation. It will be interesting to see how this progresses.

Enjoy

If 5% of their customers are the ones raising this much of a stink, Lord help us if it ever hits 20%.

PPS: I really believe that 5% number. I really, reall,y really do.

Just started up a new career in SH3. As usual, a great gaming experience!

I bought SH5 this weekend, but never installed it. Kinda glad I did not waste the time.

I hope it gets fixed up soon. But until then, I have some tonnage to sink.

Gammelpreusse · 03-08-10, 06:33 PM

For quite some time now I get the game to fire up, only to have it completly freeze once the save sync screen comes up right before entereing the main menu.

Any workaround for that available?

Kapitan_Phillips · 03-08-10, 06:32 PM

lol, smooth Ubi.

Real smooth.

OK folks, move along, this was over yesterday! Everything is fine!

These are exactly the kind of issues that us naysayers predicted. You pay $49 for a game that you are restricted in playing due to circumstances beyond your control.

Not buying this game was the correct decision for me. If they never offer an offline version, I'll just forget the whole thing.
