There is a temporary outage of the Battle.net service [16/02]

Still down while one of the biggest streamers is playing… Blizzard wtf happened to you?

It’s sooner than that. You can find posts from 2023.

Pretty absurd problem.

I also having the same login issue after years , can only login in EU server but not Kor and US

Having the same issue, can log on to KR (never logged in there before, so got prompt to make a username and it works) but US and EU don’t work (played there before).

Others have mentioned that when clicking Account management on the login screen you get a “invalid.account.blizzard,com” address thing so this sounds like blizzard is flagging old accounts as invalid or something???

So about that longer term solution, I’m guessing this hasn’t actually been done? Since it’s a problem again?
From all the threads I’ve seen it only seems to occur with older accounts that haven’t been used for a while and the only way to fix it is somehow harassing blizzard to allow older accounts to log in again?
If the solution requires manual intervention why not just have a proper error message in game that sends you to support to re-enable your account or something???

Same here,
US / KR working, EU not.
Even with fresh installation, no ptr, no anything.

But yes, i didnt play SC2 for a while.

Same problem, EU down, US/KR fine.
But also didnt play SC2 about 1 year

Also, same problem, EU down, US/KR fine.
Did not play SC2 for long time

same issue here
EU is not working, while US and KR regions are fine
haven’t launched SC2 for about a year

Thank you all for the new reports.

The issue should be fixed now, EU servers should be once again accessible.

Would you be so kind as to try accessing the game again? :slight_smile:

Hi Felranys,

Not sure if this is the same issue, but I tried relogging and got a message about “Connecting to Blizzard services” and eventually I got logged in, but I seem to be unable to create any custom games. It gets stuck on “Entering lobby” and then gives the error message “There was a temporary error with your request, please try again.”

I have been playing SC2 for a couple of weeks again already though, so the “old account” theory doesn’t seem to hold there, either.

It should. well it isn’t. temporary prroblem. try again later. well i tried. several times. same issue. Showing ERROR Global Timeout

Confirmed, right now i can access SC2.

You can’t login? That’s what the recent issue was that the blue is posting about.

Or are you able to log in but are having an issue somewhere inside the game, because that would be a different problem.

I’m having a similar problem but with the US server, i can log in into the Asia server but when i go and play a 1v1 it gets stuck to “connecting” and eventually prevents me from playing a game altogether

hope this can be fixed soon, cheers

I have the same issue, installed the game again after playing it years ago. On all regions the mss is ‘servers are down’. Is it the servers or is there a problem with my account? I hope this issue can be solved!

I have the same issue. I reinstalled the game after many years. I can connect to Battlenet but not to the game. With every region I get the same message that there is a temporary outage of the Battle.net service. I’ve had the same message for the last couple of days.

cant connect to US server
help

mine also but any server doesnt work

I’m having the same issue. I can’t log in. It says that the servers are temporarily down. But it’s been that way for days. I haven’t played SC2 in a few years. I bought the game years ago. Any updates on how to make it work? I don’t even have the option of joining the US or KR servers.
