Uplay outage, etc

[Q-BZ]

It's a growing issue where people are trying to log into their account and it says the account was accessed somewhere else and you are logged out and can't get in.



Logging in the Ubisoft website works just fine. No signs of hijacking.

Note spike and comments.

Be aware of it.

Yep, I got this, too. Damn online requirements to play a game I (bought) (bought rights to play) was loaned to me by Ubisoft. THEIR server is down, and I can't play my game.

I got the:

"Please note that this is a visual error caused by a degradation."

error.

Yup. Whatever the hell that means.

Force offline mode is the only shot.

Ridiculous.

Last month I had a similar issue where Uplay wasn't showing any of my games. They were there and could be accessed via running the game executables, but they were totally missing from Uplay's UI. They eventually fixed it, but it took weeks. I really like Ubisoft's recent games, but Uplay has gotten more clumsy with time.

Maybe they will change their mind about Ghost Recon: Breaking Point (or whatever it was called) that was to force online always for the SP mode.

Oh wait, this is Ubisoft.

That explains my troubles earlier today.

Visual error caused by degradation?

Are they referring to inactivity time auto logout?

 

[pek]

dunno what it was, but back up now.

 

[4saken]

if you disable 2FA when this crap happens to uplay it bypasses the logout error. but yeah that was bad yesterday.

I was spammed with a whole bunch of two factor code emails a couple days ago. Not sure if it's related, I changed my password just in case.
