    Seems to be an authentication issue regarding either steam or the games own authentication system if it has one. I have no idea how any of them work.

    However, more and more people seem to be affected by it.

    I haven't been able to join east coast 1 all morning, although other people have no problem. I can join any server I haven't already played on for a decent amount of time just fine. So it has to do with authenticating certain players for some specific reasons I think. But I'm gonna try deleting my steam config folder and restarting steam to see if it lets me connect.

    Edit: No help at all. It's not anything client side causing it.

    It's happening again, and we changed nothing, something has to be wrong with steam or how we're authenticating steam users
    so i'm no tech guy.... but i'm wondering, last night after you restarted the server it i got in no problem then after logging out and trying to go back in today its saying authfailure. could it be that my authentication key is somehow still active in the game and when i try and go in again it may be failing because it's already reading that i am game?

    just a thought :)

    True, I also can't only join in server I've played in a fair amount of time already. So yeah, probably an auth fail for specific reasons... playtime? hell if i know.

    Servers i've never been into, however, work fine and dandy.

    But, we found a common variable, so we got that going for us which is nice. Helk will probably see this in a while, might help I guess.

    i don't think it's based on playtime as i get this with other servers i havn't been on. not all of them but some of them

    I also use the Egine which do you use here (I mention the names not now), with many Community Software I have exactly the same trouble when it comes to the Indetifikation by the player. for me the errors are often either because the line between Steam and my software is loaded, or because the search does its uses (the same I use also) is overloaded and community software it no longer hinkriegt be presented to the players. I will resolve it always where I a Quick Connect button would add to my game where people can enter the IP and I solely use the community authentication. Well maybe it helps. I have often helped it in the Egine :)

    I must say I start the server every 9 hours automtatishc new and despite my players have problems to error.I have some players but not come for 6 days on my server to other and they report that they come up on many, then no other again and then again. So it can not be due to Steam itself. Because if it was up to the Steam Indetifizierung then you would not come on garkein server and not only to a specific

    I think it's a mistake somewhere in the login algorithm, perhaps? A small update to improve?

    So seeing as how 240+ people are currently viewing this, shall I assume that this issue is quite widespread? :/

    I'm having similar issues. I just bought the game. I was able to login to US Central 1 and play for a few minutes. I then quit to turn down the graphics a bit. Ever since, I haven't been able to log onto ANY server. I either get the authfailure or the limbo error.

    Sucks that I can't play the game I just bought...
    calm down lol, its not like its permanent

    a somewhat quick fix to this based on my previous encounter with this error would be to auto restart servers say every 6 hours (4 times a day) just to minimize the amount of times this comes up for people.... restarting the official us east coast 3 (large) server fixed this problem for me last time.

    Yes. Whoever said 99% of people can connect was wrong. It usually happens to me when a server restarts. Ill try to join back then get the authfail error.

    i have also saw other people say that this happened after they messed with graphic settings. i didn't start happening for me until i turned down my graphics to try and see if that would help with the rubber banding lag.. after i did that i started getting these problems as well.

    I started having this issue last night. At first, I only had issues with US Central 3, all other servers, official and community, worked fine. Now I can not join any server without getting the limbo/auth failure issues.

    But all of this is to be expected. I would be angry if the game was the completed version, just take your time fixing it devs!




    ...





    I'd still love to play it now, not later

    I just started getting this error after a game crash. Now I'm locked out of all Servers. I tried restarting computer client steam game etc. I tried logging into Official community/modd servers they all fail. I tried clicking the refresh loop on F1 nothing, home as well all Fail to Auth. The server I was playing on shows 0/200 so my character isn't logged into still.
