Crysis: Server Authentification failed?

Blitersety · 11-18-2007, 06:41 PM

I was trying to play Crysis online a little while ago, and no matter what server I chose, it said "Authentication Failed". I have been able to play TF2, Counterstrike, call of duty, Halo, and many other games online with no problem, so I don't understand why Crysis is giving me this BS. It seems like a lot of other people are experiencing this problem in the game's online chat too.

Does anyone know what I need to do to fix this? Any help is greatly appreciated.

UPDATE:

After a bit of message board lurking, people are saying that this is a known bug that EA has admitted to and will hopefully fix in the upcoming patch.

Some people are suggesting that if this problem happens, to revalidate the registration key, however for most people it looks like that is not working...

Configuring and/or turning off my firewall also doesn't fix the issue by the way.

EDIT: I tried to re-activate it with the CD key just for the **** of it, still no luck.
