Anyone else having trouble connecting?

I’ve been trying to connect for over half an hour and it keeps booting me out. BLZ51900001 keeps saying. If this is happening to a lot of people, why don’t they let people know? This has also been happening a lot lately, and there’s no compensation for those of us who keep being left out.

Ya Blizzard broke something again. Can’t login either.

Good thing we have a new pet to send money to Ukraine though. Clearly that’s more important for Blizzard than having working services.

Yes.
When logging in, I get “Connecting…” then a “You have been disconnected. (BLZ519000001)” message.

Same, now it says its a busy day ,etc and it puts me in a que for 1 minute and keeps me there. At first I thought it was my net and called them and my speeds are at 640 Mbps.
Are they having internet/power issues over there??

Edit- Blizzard now states on the que box

“We are aware of an issue affecting our authentication servers, which may result in slow or failed login attempts. We are currently investigating the cause and will provide updates as they are available.”

Same. I’ve been placed in a “login queue” now just to get into the launcher. Except the estimated time of >1 min is not accurate.

Its seems to have gotten worse. Now the Battlenet junkware program itself won’t connect.

Edit: Finally got in now, was about to give up for a while.

I miss the days of pre battle net where you’d log into the game directly.

I checked my reply over in the Technical Support forum to see when I initially replied to a post about not being able to log in.
It was literally an hour ago (first reported at 4:25PM EST).
I wish there was a bit more of a transparent explanation from Blizzard about the constant login issues and disconnects. It really feels like this has been going on for WEEKS now.

It’s back up right now. Just got into D4.

Thank you!!! I wonder what the issue was…

Edit- Just wanted to say this to give a heads up to people. Today I seen that the Government wanted to have rolling black outs in many states on the East Coast due to the heat, essentially effecting 600 million people. Also , People are having issues with their phones {calling in and out) all across the US and it is effecting most major cell phone carriers. Another thing is they have been “warning” of internet interruptions and communication disruptions for the last two months due to so called solar flares/electromagnetic pulses, which ideally doesn’t make sense as most internet providers are wired underground but obviously if the grid goes down, not net. Just be aware that if they say the grid is having issues keeping up, be ready for the lights to be shut off all. Just saying… Be Safe all. Take care.

Wooo I’m in the… World?

Back to being in-game again now. 5:35PM EST. Pagle and Mankrik ok.

I dont know why I expected to be able to access and play any Blizzard games/services. The technical issues (especially those hindering access) are on a nearly 3 day cadence. I dont know if its lack of proper maintenance, lack of qualified people or a complication from shunting multiple realms into “less space” ie cutting hardware when times were lean and now not having proper infrastructure or a combo of any/all. What I do know is I have been spending less time enjoying my interactions with Blizzard and more time spending my money and enjoying my time with games that actually work.

Not to get too much into politics. but damn man.

According to this .gov website,

Since the war began more than a year ago, the United States has given Ukraine more than $113 billion in aid

https://www.kennedy.senate.gov/public/2023/6/america-s-billions-in-aid-to-ukraine-isn-t-charity-but-it-can-t-be-wasted#:~:text=Since%20the%20war%20began%20more,say%20it%20is%20not%20enough.

Kinda insane how many domestic problems they could have fixed.

Better than letting Russia take Ukraine. To fix the broken things here would only result in them being broken a few years later.
