    I've had this issue off and on through out the day today. It froze a couple times, but more often than not I was able to walk around but not interact with anything in game.

    This is actually a glitch you probably experienced rather than server lag. Hard to tell the difference though isn't it? As for me, first time all day to lag at all and my internet is comparable to a slug.

    You have rural local phone company internet too? lol

    No it was the same with me all day, I'd have the almost same issue, task manager kill the game or restart my computer, try to log back in and get the same error code several times in a row. Then all of a sudden it let me back in, then several hours later, rinse and repeat. Not just to me but my wife's computer as well.

    Ah well, it'll get fixed.

    Yes I have U-Verse through AT&T right now. Will change to Suddenlink eventually.

    lawl I have internet through Beggs telephone company, Beggs is the name of the town I live in, haha

    1) soem people are claiming they are logging into the EU server fine. (dunno if they acutally are.) But there are a number of outages in Europe too that are disrupting traffic. some of my friends for example cannot access many sites even those that aren't down, because many of the major hubs are down right now.

    2) steam is hosted out of other locations. It being up does not mean it is not a global issue.

    3) several links to sources about the outages have already been posted. please read them before claiming that this is a zos only issue.

    4)Please kindly take off your tinfoil hat.

    Do you not understand that there is supposed to be an EU server in Frankfurt in Germany. Which is also affected by this outage? HOW??? My query has NOTHING to do with where the player is based, I am asking WHERE IS THE EU SERVER? It is supposed to be in Germany.

    My guess would be that some part of the login/authentication requires communicating with a server in the effected area of the US, but the actual game server is in Germany.

    More likely any of the several European outages is. Some players including some of my friends are saying they are able to log into the EU ones just fine some are saying they can't. again many of the European net hubs are reported down too right now. For that matter several in asia are as well.

    He was referring to the fact that EU servers are supposed to be in Germany. If the outage is US only, why are EU servers down as well. I guess this point is void since outages were confirmed for the EU as well.

    so apparently hardware broke and they are waiting on parts
