Disconnected From Ironclad Online...

Hi, I just got my game for Christmas and I have installed it and everything and I decided to check out multiplayer.

So following the manuals directions I click on the Tab "Iron Clad Online".  I type in my username and my password then click "Login".  It takes about 3 or 4 seconds and then a box pops up and it says: "Disconnected From Ironclad Online"

What should I do?  Did I miss a step?

Thanks!

Try it again.  The ICO server was down earlier for a couple hours.

i've had the problem since I got the game. Read the TechFAQ, disabled firewall, updated game, and still can't play.

 

 

I find it such a nice feature that they include multiplayer, but can't figure out how to implement a logon screen. I didn't pay $40 for this.

Well obsidianrayven, ICO has been down for a while today, maybe it still is, but I can't get on either, try waiting a while is all.

Waiting, waiting... It can't be that it's always down when I try to get online! I've tried it now for several days!

And I actually bought the game to play it online because AI is never a challenge for me and gets boring very fast...

PS: I got a german version of the game and I read you can download the game also in English. Does anybody know where? (Impulse) Do I have to uinstall the game before I can do that? Thx for answer

 

Edit: Found now the solution. You need to update Sins to version 1.12 via Impulse and then it works. But it's stupid of the game makers not to write something like "Make sure you got latest version" to the error message. And actually I thought 1.12 was not yet available for a german version...

Hope it helps someone.

Wow... I find it shocking that I had to install a seperate program to update the game for me to be able to get online... That's simply bad logistics on the part of Stardock... It should update automatically when you log on to play online. Take a look at Blizzard's games, that's how ya do it.

I have version 1.12 and still no luck getting on, running vista 64 if that matters.
