It looks like they are going through a major unannounced update across servers and website. Im not sure how to raise a flag for them to take a look at the Battletech servers though.

 

[TinyWiking]

Can you give it a try now? We just fed the master powering the server and they've started running again !

 

[azzaka]

Can confirm connection established Thank You

 

[sgtnasty369]

Confirmed. I was able to log in successfully. Thanks

Hello, I am unable to establish comstar connection as of today 2/17/2022. Do I need to create a new thread with all my specs? Is the server down for others?

I have the same problem, started this morning . I suspect it is a server problem with Paradox. I thought it might be wrong password but when I asked for a password reminder, was told unable to connect.

I am using the PDX version and because I can't login, I have no access DLC, so no games will load.

All Paradox sites are having login issues right now. I thought BT was run by unrelated servers but perhaps not ... anyway I've reported this to Paradox now.

Sorry about this!

 

[AndrewT]

I'm able to log into Paradox sites now that I was not 30 minutes ago.

Are you all still seeing this issue with BT?

I can log in to Paradox Launcher but when BT is loaded, I still can't log in to BT itself. Stille unable to connect to Commstar and when I now try to re-set my password, I get a 404 error - page cannot be found.
