Our servers are experiencing higher than normal volume and it’s causing a few hiccups. Some users are seeing connection issues. We are currently investigating the issue and will report back here when the issue have been addressed.
Thank you for your understanding.
UPDATE 12:50 ET 04/24/15: The engineers are have done their magic and users should start to be able to play the game normally again. It may take some time for the issues to propagate to all users, however.
UPDATE 3:23 ET 04/24/15: I just wanted to let you all know that we are still looking into it. We currently do not have an ETA but we will continue to look at it until it is addressed. I will update this thread as I learn of any new developments.
UPDATE 4:19 ET 04/24/15: It looks like people are starting to get online. We identified an issue with the database when it is hit suddenly by ALOT of people. We are going to look into it for the future, but the servers are starting to normalize now. There may be some lingering hiccups here and there but it should remain to get constantly better.
UPDATE 5:32 ET 04/24/15: We need to put out some fixes to our servers to completely address the issue. This, unfortunately, takes some time. We are putting out the fixes as I write this .
I think its fair to say that the event caused more of a draw than was expected. I understand its hard to test these scenarios in a pre-release environment.

Seems to still be an ongoing issue. Just played 15 minutes no problem and than its offline again.
I trust that it will stable soon enough
Just be a bit more patient.
Yeah, it’s all over the place. I got the “check internet connection” for a while, then I got in and played for a couple rounds, then I had no events on the tabs and that’s where I am now.
I’m not even mad. I’m going to work for a while, hopefully it will get fixed right when I’m ready to play again. :shrug:
I understand the server issue but this is screwing up my simulator standings. It’s about to end and I am close to the top in the rankings. This means the difference between meaningful rewards. I hope there is something to rectify this situation.
My app loads up fast but with only the prologue story. Everything else is gone. I’m a little nervous about everything not restoring
