Anno 2070

Can't play Anno 2070 anymore *kind of SOLVED*
Hi.

I'm trying to play Anno 2070 and I'm unable to do it. I've tried like thousand times before, but now it just doesn't work. I have no clue what's going on so i'll describe everything I do, even tho it may be so obvious.

1- Install Anno 2070 and the DLC.
2- Play Anno 2070. I've both Steam and Uplay installed, because it's mandatory.
3- Steam finish some installing things before the auto-patch window shows.
4- Auto-patch do its business and ask me if i would like to have the settings customized to my PC.
5- Eventually, when the config stops, the game just never shows a screen or something. I see the game process at task manager but nothing happens.
6- 7-8 seconds after I press the "play anno 2070" button and Steam shows that I'm playing the game, Steam shows that I'm not playing the game.

Things that I have tried:
1- Reinstalling the game.
2- Verifying the cache
3- Playing offline mode in both Steam and Ubisoft platforms.
4- Launching the game through Uplay.
5- Execute the .exe as admin.
6- Executing the .exe with compatibility terms.
7- Put the game in English, instead of my local language.

Thanks in advance for anyone who could help me out.

Hello everyone,

The issue with the auto patcher loop has now been fixed.

We have pushed an update to the Steam version of Anno 2070 this month (September 2020) that should resolve the issue with the official autopatcher.

In order for this to work you will need to reinstall the game again, first.

Next, the official auto patcher can be found here -
http://static2.cdn.ubi.com/patches/anno2070/Anno2070_Offlinepatcher_2_00.zip

Here are the instructions on how to use the autopatcher -

- Disconnect your PC from the internet
- Once offline, extract the zip-file into the Anno 2070 installation directory and install the program with administrator rights
- You will receive an error message related to the EULA. Click OK.
- When the 'offline autopatcher' is installed successfully, reconnect your PC to the internet and restart Anno 2070
- The game should download a small file
When this process is finished, please restart Anno 2070

This should hopefully negate the need for any 3rd party workarounds from other sites.

Hey Heath.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you on this issue. It appears you've done quite a bit of troubleshooting yourself for this issue so I'm sorry to hear that nothing you've tried has as yet worked out for you. If you've attempted each step contained here[support.ubi.com], I would also recommend also running both Uplay and Steam launchers as administrator, not sure if that's what you were referring to by the .exe files but just in case. If none of these things help if possible I'd then ask you to send your system files[support.ubi.com] over to us on a support case here[support.ubi.com], we may be able to identify a potential cause after looking through those files.

Dear Orion,

Don't worry about the delay, the matter is that you replied. I did every step contained in the first link you provide, with negative outcome. Also I ran both Uplay and Steam .exes as admin (I was referring to the game launchers and Uplay and Steam launchers).

So, right now i'll be away from my PC a couple of weeks (could extend to months, timetable not accurate :steamsad: ). As soon as possible, i'll try again all the process to play Anno 2070. If all of this fail, I'll send my system files to Ubisoft on a support case as you indicate.

Anyway, thank you very much for taking your time trying to help me, Orion. I'm sure we will figure out soon or sooner :cozybethesda:

I've tried to play Anno 2070 again and now I can get into the game BUT i have the infamous patcher loop.

Basically, when I lauch the game, the autopatcher kicks in and start trying to update something. It cant connect with the update server and I just can "play" or exit.

I've tried the solutions which appear on the internet but now the link for the offline auto-updater (http://static2.cdn.ubi.com/patches/anno2070/Anno2070_Offlinepatcher_2_00.zip) is apparently broken.

So... any solution? Where can I find a proper auto-patch to finally f* play this game i bought long time ago and have played many hours before?

Thanks in advance.

I posted a solution elsewhere that worked for me to fix the auto-updater loop issue.
Also note that the offline updater does not work for me and apparently several others.

To fix this I Installed the Uplay game launcher and launched the game from the Uplay launcher with Steam already running.
I had to reboot once or twice and then the update completed. After this process you should be able to start the game with either the Steam launcher or the Uplay launcher.
It appears that Steam is initially unable to run the auto-updater properly.

Just checked it and it didn't work :( I'll reinstall it thru uplay and see what happens...

Hi Orion, first of all thank you for posting. I have tried that and the very first step, which is downloading the offline patcher, doesn't work because the link (http://static2.cdn.ubi.com/patches/anno2070/Anno2070_Offlinepatcher_2_00.zip) is broken or something else.

Anyway, when I first tried to play this several months ago and open this discussion, I tried to do those steps you provide and it didnt work either.

I know it's not your fault and i dont wanna put you in flames, but it's a shame that a game i have bought and have played 80+ hours now I'm unable to play, when NOTHING in my PC has changed. I didnt try but I'm kinda sure that if i download Anno 2070 from illegal sources I would be able to play it... these things encourage the player base to just bypass buying the game, because the technical issues are not getting solved. Just my thoughts.

In adition, I opened a ticket in ubi.com @ Wednesday and they still didn't reach me. And I'm starting to getting a bit angry with this issue.
jerrylau405 2020 年 3 月 31 日 下午 9:06 
I am having similar issue but having the message saying my key has already been used. I bought the game nearly 10+ years ago when it first came out. I created a ticket on Ubisort but had no replies at all.

Hi Ubi-Orion. I've managed to get the offline-autopatcher and the issue is still there unfortunately.. I'm kind of sad that i can't play Anno 2070 again, one of my favourites games from Anno saga. Is there anything i can do to make it work?..

If your key is shown as in use, jerrylau405, this may mean that you are trying to play ANNO 2070 on the wrong Ubisoft Account. You need to be signed into the same account where the game was first activated, and you cannot re-use the activation key on another account.

If you haven't already, please reach out to us directly via a support case[support.ubisoft.com] or Live Chat[support.ubisoft.com] for a private investigation into this issue to take place.

Hello Heath! I sincerely apologise that the steps thus far provided have not been successful in addressing this issue, and that the offline patcher did not work either.

From your initial description, I understand that the task starts in the background, but then it sounds like it quits almost immediately. Does the process appear in Task Manager when hitting launch, even for a second? Or not at all?

Can you provide me with your case reference number please, and ensure that fresh MSINFO and DXDIAG files are attached so I can get right to investigating those? :)

Hi Ubi-Woofer.

SURPRISINGLY, the thing worked out finally. I've just installed the game in English (instead of Spanish) and deleted the exceptions that I wrote in the 'hosts' file. So finally it worked out. I'm thinking that it worked because i "cleaned" the hosts file, something like the exceptions (who i was asumming that it could help and it did the opposite) not only didn't help but ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up entirely.

I think the installation language have no issue on that, because I have changed the language to Spanish and it works too.

I'll do a little recap: I DONT KNOW why now it works. I went back to the default settings (no hosts file editing, no offline autopatcher..) and it suddenly worked. What it didn't work at first (and that's why I did all sort of things possible) just surprisingly worked.

So, please, Ubisoft, try to solve this issue because I was so close of giving up in this game. This game doesn't deserve this.

In adition, thanks to you Ubi-supporters for always being reachable and kind.

-Kind regards.
