if its windows 7 you can't open ports.. games already come registered with the ports and somehow windows opens ports/hole game i guess. wahts it saying for ur game highlander? like the message when you try and join

EARep Scarlett: There is currently an issue which is being worked upon. The teams are working on getting everyone back into the game as quickly as possible. We ask for your patience until the issue is addressed.

weird. find out what ports they are and open them yourself. in some cases maybe it is just windows firewall

Yeah windows firewall gave me some problems, I had to add an exception a few times before it allowed me to play.

I had opened the ports to no avail, and I played the beta with no issues, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Hi, my name is Sean. How may I help you? [12:49:31 PM]
: I have been working with your support for seveal days now, I cannot connect to EA Online nor our own dedicated servers, cannot join games with friends. Have set my ports open, updated PB and deleted the beta [12:50:50 PM]
Sean: Actually there is a server problem going on. [12:49:40 PM]
Sean: The servers are currently down. [12:49:55 PM]
Sean: Our engineers are working to fix them. [12:50:10 PM]
: even our dedicated ones? [12:52:23 PM]
Sean: Yes. [12:50:35 PM]
: I would think that would display in the banner at the bottom of the screen so one would not have to wait 30 minutes to chat with you to relay that [12:53:07 PM]
Sean: I apologize for the inconvenience and disappointment caused. [12:51:34 PM]
: it is just frustrating as they told me yesterday it would be fixed in a couple hours [12:54:01 PM]
: any ETA on when they will be back up? [12:54:14 PM]
Sean: They should be up in 48 to 72 hours. [12:52:50 PM]
: 2 -3 days??? [12:55:08 PM]
