Are the authentication servers still down? The server status on the main page says everything is up, but I'm still getting stuck on Authenticating.
Same here. Some of my guildies were able to log on and are playing right now, but I'm stuck on authenticating.
Re put your stuff in instead of just redoing the same log in over and over. Every time I get into that I have to resign in most of the time, or it just keeps looping.

Tried that, didn't work for me. Thanks for suggestion though

Next thing I could say is restart your router but I have doubts on that. Just a good thing to always troubleshoot.
No worries. Hopefully get to grinding soon.

Copied from the discord community server, this has fixed the Authentication issue for me.
if you still cant log in, try changing your DNS: Win+R → type ncpa.cpl → right click your internet connection → Properties → Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) → Properties → Use the following DNS → Preferred: 8.8.8.8 / Alternate: 8.8.4.4 → OK → open CMD and type ipconfig /flushdns → restart the game. Try this worked for a lot of people

That's probably why I just needed to relog, I have that already set, probably from when I was de-microsofting a bit and totally forgot about that. Thanks coming in with that.

"Everything up to date!
Version:
spawn UNKNOWN"
Is this part of the ddoss attacks or is this because I put the game in a wrong folder or what? I get this when I hit play.

Today we were subjected to 17 attacks totaling 238 minutes of active DDoS. We were able to mitigate 14 of these such that only 3 were able to boot already connected players. Our custom protective measures have helped, and successful DDoS attacks are now much more expensive to pull off against us.
We will continue to harden our custom defenses best we can until our more permanent solution is in place. Expect more updates in 24 hours at the latest.

You guys are honestly the best. "We will continue to harden our custom defenses the best we can until our more permanent solution is in place." is music to the ears.
I personally only dc'd for a tiny bit today, was much less in length then last attempts for me. Also crazy dude, is it actually 1m~ a DDoS for this amount of time?
