I think that it's just the fact that the one lonely server blade that hosted "all" of the "North America servers" finally crapped-out...

 

...and the gas station attendant/tech support hasn't realized it yet...

For me it's also accompanied by this really long loading screen before the game's start-credits begin. Could just be my CPU finally melting but it seems like no other program is affected.

I have the same problem, also it takes pretty long just to exit the game.

 

 

 

Additionally: It takes many sec to send this reply as well.

Right now, the only two players on servers in all the world are myself, and a guy in bots TDM.

 

It's not completely down, it's not being updated right now, but something is clearly wrong.

Sorry about this, everyone.

 

We're working on the issue, however the issue itself impacted forum logins thus we were unable to provide status updates.

 

Service is slowly being restored and we are monitoring the issue.

can confirm, front end and login system are now operational

 

also, if you're able to comment, what exactly happened? i've seen this issue once before around the time the game was under adhesive's reins - causing a prolonged crash of the entire server ecosystem and login system over a period of hours.

Ok, everything seems to be resolved now. A little bit of reasoning and post-mortem with the issue at hand...

 

We had issues with our DNS and specifically ICANN.  After a certain period of time, ICANN will actually turn off our domain if it has invalid information in the whos information. Somehow, at our DNS provider, they had that info set to 'null' or 'empty string' and it caused our backend services that depended on the domain to turn off.

 

Which resulted in all sorts of fun things breaking.

 

We're all extremely tired from staying up, and will work more on this in the morning if it is still an issue

To apologize for this, we've made a promo code - redeem the code "ICANNT" on playhawken.com and get a one-time offering of 5,000 HC. Code will be active until the relaunch and can be used once per account.

 

Code only valid for PC players. If the code isn't working, it's probably due to the backend services failing *or* that promo code system is archaic and needs updating. Either way, consider it a neat little gesture. It's the thought that counts, right?

 

appreciate the reply and explanation for what occurred.

 

DNS issues are no joke - especially when the backend has it failing.

DNS changes can take time to propagate.  You can manually set DNS to possibly get around this issue.

 

Hold down the Windows Key on the keyboard and press the letter R (alternative, click the Windows orb or symbol in the lower left corner of your screen and select 'run' (right click start symbol > run on Windows 10)

 

In the Run dialog box, type "ncpa.cpl" without quotes and press enter.

 

nc0ikvb.png

 

Right click on the local area connection or wireless adapter that serves as your internet connection.

 

Select Properties.

 

frVtDMo.png

 

SELECT (highlight but DO NOT UNCHECK) Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)

 

Click the Properties button.

 

gRhF6yC.png

 

Select "Use the following DNS server addresses:"

 

Now enter the IP of the third party DNS you wish to try.  I use google's DNS, and it appears to be working fine (8.8.8.8)

 

4d8s0WE.png

 

Click OK, then OK or close.

 

You can validate by going back to run, typing "cmd", and in the black window, typing "nslookup google.com" (without quotes).  If this has worked properly, you will see the DNS server used will be 8.8.8.8

Good luck!  Oh and all responsibility for any detrimental, undesired impact on your computer/property/life rests with you.  Including if your toaster gets jelly in it.  Do not attempt this if you eschew your own responsibility and are sue-happy.  That said, if your connection stops working, go back to where you input the DNS address and change it back to "Obtain DNS server address automatically."

 

If this helps even one poor bastard play Hawken, worth.

I removed the info about the redeem code. The system we used to distribute the code clearly isn't working. Hopefully our deepest apologies will work instead :(

 

Is anyone still experiencing issues at this time?

Deshception for the code.

It's a word I invented in french it's a combination of "Desh"  and deception


Take a look at the 5th definition (urban dictionnary...nsfw)




Somekind of Hype then feel like it was wasted.

Still sitting, waiting for a time when I can march gloriously though futuristic terrain mowing down giant robots in my own.

 

Still can't connect to login servers (my location is Ottawa Ontario, CAN).

Not sure if there has been more DNS problems, but it should be known that I have been forced to play lesser games.

Lesser games like Overwatch.

Help me.

Please.

I seem to remember the statement you are using out of context being the fact that nobody was paying the bills and the company hosting the forums decided it was time to quit giving it a free ride, so yeah I was right, it wasn't DNS now was it.

 

Thanks for the flowers though.   :wub:
