Servers not reachable

[Kwikslipgirl]

Anyone playing in Uk? I keep getting a meesage the servers are unreachable, anyone have any ideas? Not very PC savvy so easy fixes! haha :)

Just bought this game and I'm met by the same stupid message.

It tells me to go to https://support.codefusion.technology/planetcoaster... which has no DNS record anywhere.

I'm having the same issue. I came to see if anyone else was having the same issue, and looks like it!

Pardon my ignorance, but what exactly do the servers do?

I believe the servers in this case are needed to verify your account and to acces some of your data.

the fact you need to connect to a server other than to register a game or play in online mode is totally beyond me. Its bad design, bad management and bad coding. Now some smart arse will say well servers go down all the time no server is 100% uptime and they would be right, which is why you should not need to connect to one apart from the reasons i stated whether its a steam problem or a frontier one.

but as Maxinfinity explained here. It's strange design to need server access for not online parts of a game

[audiolady]

ok. Thanks. So the servers are basically a place that can store, then verify your information if needed? I only know enough about computers to know that I don't know much!

in Norway and i have the same problem

We've let Frontier know about the server issue.
Thank you!

haha, I'm also not a professional in computers whatsoever but I believe so. That at least what somebody explained ones to me. They are used to run games on. But most games need it only for online modes since they are able to (once downloaded) run games on the computer that the game is normally played on without a extern server.

[Marylien]

In online modes this is impossible to play without external server (to my understanding at least) since the data of multiple people that are simultaneously and/or consecutively playing the game has to be on one server to play. But in single player mode this should not be a issue.

[Marylien]

at least that is how I understand it, if someone with more computer knowledge sees this please correct or add what's incorrect or incomplete :)

I just downloaded this and was trying to install for the first time ever... lol I thought something was wrong. Glad it isn't just me.

[audiolady]

starting to make a little more sense now. It's almost like a social club, in a way, where everyone is together to communicate? Or is that too simple?

[alina_aling]

How long does it take to fix this problem?

[audiolady]

Mine seems to be working. It just likes to take forever to load my zoos, with a little hiccup here and there.

It's been mentioned by many on the Frontier Forums so I'd thought i'd come on Steam to see if anyone is having issues here. Hopefully it can be resolved soon for you all
