Unable to connect to Funcom Live Servers

[War]

Continuously fail to connect to Funcom Live Servers.

Files are verified/validated via steam.
Tried a full reboot as well (inclusive of my routers, modem et al.)

I'm not seeing an issue on my end.

Is anyone else having this pop up over the last 36hrs (wondering if this is a "log-in volume issue with the new chapter 4 launch")?

Same here

@Smuggl,

Thank-you for the response -- it's likely hype volumes I'm thinking but had no way to confirm. Ideally some others will also chime in for a larger sample set.

I'll try again in a day or so -- no real rush on the B-Pass and the like.

It has been buggy all day apparently. I can log in for single player and sometimes the bazaar is available but the battlepass and challenges are not. Earlier they both showed up without a reload of the single player (or relog on a server I'd guess) after about 10-15 minutes. Just recently I had to exit to main menu and reload my single player save again for the battle pass and challenges to show up.

Can't login - can play anyway (sometimes) but then I can't access some of my items like the arcane staff. It's somewhat annoying, really.

Still not connecting to Funcom Live Services -- so no access to challenges, Battlepass or the Bazaar.

Given the enhanced grind imposed on BP progression in this age, not overly thrilled with the lack of access so far -- other bugs/issues notwithstanding.
