Same error every time I try to play the game today. On Steam.

Why did Fatshark create this problem on a national holiday for Americans? I just wanted to enjoy the game this afternoon.

Lol it is certainly bad timing!

Just like when they launched the game, in a relativelyunstable state, then took a month off…

I hope they can fix it soon. It really is a shame it happened when many of us would like to play during peak hours.

Same problem here, can’t play due to backend error.

Same issue.
Backend error for last 2 hours…
Got to love live service games that has no way to do single player modes or have dedicated coop server.

As the title says, since the 1.1.11 Hotfix I haven’t been able to log in, due to Backend Error. I’ve tried validating and restarting my rig with no change.

Me too. Same issue. 3rd time for me. Right after the latest hotfix
thats for patch 11.

Release a small hotfix to fix things you broke in the last patch, only to break the game again. If this isn’t typical FS, I don’t know what is

I was in earlier and now I have it as well


Same issue here, was able to log on earlier today but now this. Every time.

same problem. Never release an update when nobody will be there to fix it
It’d be hilarious if an intern accidentally set windows auto-updater to go off at midnight

Same…

Worked for initial session immediately following the update but have been getting this error for the last hour or so.

samesies

Also having the same issue on Microsoft Store/Xbox Game Pass at 9:30 - 9:45 PM EST.

Same issue after hotfix.

At least FS can get one live-service ‘feature’ right…
