Black Ops 3 maintenance or server issues

The next Call of Duty game might not release to November each year, but an early Black Ops 3 beta allowed for fans to get hands-on early for a limited time. During the beta days, the developers explained Black Ops 3 maintenance might occur and other server issues considering this is a test period.

While millions won’t look for the Black Ops 3 server status today until it goes to public, you can be sure the thousands of beta testers won’t be happy with problems too often. This first-person shooter game is destined for success due to the popularity of the franchise, but also the Black Ops games have a dedicated fan base that prefer them to COD alternatives.

  • Jordan D. Kline

    April 30th, 2021 – trying to play BO3 in multiplayer. Love this game, been playing off and on since the beginning. With no regrets my fiancée and I have probably spent over $700 on just this game and content alone. This is without a doubt the most pleasurable game I have ever played!!! I cannot join a game at all right now in multiplayer. I am sure every issue will be resolved within the next 24hrs! Probably one of the main issues being the invisible glitch or “mod” we have all been experiencing in game where people are invisible and cannot be harmed. Hang in there BO3 fan base! Until next time in the field of battle. Hope to see you there!!

  • Michael Mclaggan

  • Jason Boner

    I’m done buying anything call of duty treyarch or Activision until bo3 is fixed and the game is purged of cheaters too . Why on earth would i wanna pay a monthly fee for severe problems topped off with groups of cheaters ? 99%of the time i am forced to leave the lobbies and i jist turn off the game .

  • BTB_Jump_boost183

    My disc of Xbox 360 black ops 3 is all screwed up I can’t play any old maps and in the dlc ones I can’t see the map and a lot of the other stuff. It’s probably the disc right?

  • Connzy113

    Currently Thursday 28th of January 1:42am . I’m trying to play zombie online on PS4 I have been getting fast lobby’s the last few days but it says 25% in playlist but only matches one person to my lobby of not none . I’ve done everything from Restart network and PS4 nothing changed .. what’s happening with the servers?

  • Hoshen Damri

    What’s your psn? If you down to play sometims

  • Hoshen Damri

    Hello,
    I am from Israel, playing on ps4 i have searched for an answer for my problem for about half a year by now- I have the matchmaking problem that whenever i am trying to join public lobby it goes from “searching for games 50” to “searching for games 0” and it repeat itself. About how my internet is- i have OPEN NAT type and i am not on wifi but wired connection(it happened when i had wifi connection as well) with 4mb connection, i can play zombies normally but it just won’t let me join multiplayer lobbies. Please if anyone find a solution tell me

  • liam

    I’m from Australia and the servers are down the server playing up big time and players in Australia are getting shitty over this. I play it on ps4. I get into a lobby and while I’m on a map it loads and puts me into a different game. Sometimes I play hardcore and it put me in core match then after I’m in hardcore. Please I need this server fixed. To me bo3 is still a popular game and if the host leaves I get connection interrupted then everyone has to find a match again it’s so anoying I joined a group and made friends with americans to get into their server even though I get 3 bars in usa server at least theirs don’t play up like the server in Australia.

  • Tantive3

    I always get kicked out of mp on pc but zombies works..
    Fix?

  • Titian Trepanier

    I bought the zombies chronicles for ps4 and I had my disk clean and my muiltplayer won’t download nether will my campaign pls fix this now tryark I spent a hundred dollars on chronicles and the dlcs for zombies I need this fixed now of I want my money back

  • TEO ARX1

    I loaded the multiplayer i found people the game went to loading screen…the loading bar went till the end and then it never loaded the map for a minute it was stacked in loading and then it brought me back to the lobby with the others…any fix? ( I try now to redownload my multiplayer on Steam)

  • Matt Schoemaker

    Why is this still happening? I literally rebought the game recently to play zombies exclusively with friends I got to play for like 4 hours left came back and it’s been stuck on this for two days

  • Bėąůčhämpp Liam

    For a while now everyone is having trouble in Australia to get a match on multiplayer including hardcore and it looks like a server outage please fix the problem. It’s like bo3 is not worth playing anymore even bo2 has a better server than bo3. It has nothing to do with the internet becouse everyone I know including myself reset our internet and we now know it’s the game server itself. Please reset servers for Australia so it works or I might call up psn and find a way to fix it.

  • Rebecca Wood

      • Christa Phoenix

        Sameee

        • Paige Cook

          Still doing the same thing. I’ve been checking every day. Friends can join for a custom game with no problem, but, can’t join any lobbies in online multiplayer. This has gotten seriously old. And they say everything is working fine.

  • the journals of time

    I’m having a repeated issue with the bo3 server while playing zombies.

  • melissa de looze

    Yep me too ps4

  • TheCellGames

    I tried a everything for the abc error on PC but nothing was working. I did have luck with one thing after a while though. So for people on PC with the abc error, im not promising this will work but give this a shot. 1. launch your game and leave it at the loading screen, dont click anything. 2. turn pc off. but hard reset (hold pwr button down for 5 sec) 3. Turn on pc. 4. Launch steam again. 5. when you go to launch bo3 this time it should ask if you wish to enter safe mode, click yes. The game will be in a small little box. Now pay attention to the top of the box when it loads, that is when the update numbers finally changed for me and i could get online.

  • Steel Lion

    Still not working for me.. Xbox one, new jersey, Verizon FiOS… What the hell….

  • SSSREMIG

    Well multiplayer aint workin for few weeks. Sometimes you coulda find workin’ lobbies but that was rare Only one thing you can do is play zombies solo or public match. And ofc you can play campaing but who gives a sh*t xD

  • indigoRaid

    whenever i go on bo3 for pc it says the same error message with number and letters or something close to that. if this keeps up for another week i will have to uninstall

  • Hamad Alkhoori

  • November Sierra

  • Robert Viviani

    I am also not able to get in with the same errors as Ariel. I also have Verizon and the same 100.0.0.0.0.0 in the top right hand corner.

  • Charmed79

  • November Sierra

    5/13/2020 I keep getting the damn abc error.. I can’t even get past the first load screen. Anyone else?

  • Alex Rayne

    im writing this on 5/12/20 – I was getting ABC error but resolved that by waiting at the initial load screen until the number in the top right corner changed, then hitting A to start the game. now I’m getting an error Ive never seen before after my game was supposedly switching hosts: “XUID did not match old stats” wtf does that mean

  • David D

    Same issue here, just searches and searches, never finds a match, been days. I understand there are a ton more people trying to play right now, but you’d think the servers could handle it.

  • Gabriele Busiello

    I can’t literally stand this my Nat type is open my internet has very fast speed and I am still getting disconnected on zombies only. But when i do get server disconnections it effects my whole internet especially my Nat type ever time I play zombies only

  • Jonathan Fischer

    If you can’t find games you have to wait in lobby now, and yes when you do find one it’s super laggy, it’s likely they pulled the plug on the servers!, not only to cut costs, but to encourage players to play their awful new game that is marketed towards “bots”, #BringBackRushing,
    #Bo2Remastered, #ScrewOffActivision

  • jacob love

    It seems to me the black ops 3 server speed is so slow on purpose to try to make people stop playing it and save the the company money, am I wrong ? I bought BO 4 ,but prefer BO3. Right now I will never buy another game from this group again. If I’m wrong tell me why?

  • Michael Peeples

    Cannot connect to a match..and when it rarely does its super laggy

  • Craig Eckert

    I get stuck in the pregame lobby everyone is there and voted but the game never starts so i cant even play

  • Jordan Davis

  • Fever4th3Flaver

    Servers down?

  • Ken Porter

    Can’t find any games except for tdm and hctdm been like this for months now.

  • Jeff

    One of the few things I do in my free time that i enjoy and I cannot even enjoy it!!!! This is total BS. 3 out of 4 HC Dom matches that ive been kicked from with only 20 points to go to 200. And all three times i was # 1 in points on my team. Im not getting the win and its not going towards my spm. just got kicked with 8500 2.5 mins into round 2.

  • Jeff

    Try exiting the game then reloading it. I found that the times when I couldn’t get a match in any lobby, I had backed out of the game while i was still in the multiplayer lobby(started watching netflix without completely backing out of the multiplayer lobby). Every so often the servers update or something. You’re basically connected to the server at the exact same point that you left the game in before, if that makes any sense. You’ll see a message saying something about game settings
    have changed, then connecting to server.

  • Jeff

    Yup, I’ve been having the same issues for the past 4 months. I do well in a few matches, get some distorted sound game freezes then it kicks me out of the entire game into the Xbox Home Dashboard. I have to quit the game and reload it. If I go back and look at recent players it shows the lobby is full. I’ve deducted that someone starts searching for a lobby to play in then the server kicks me and lets them in. 90% of the time I have a damn good kill streak going and only needed one more kill for either a wraith or raps. The past few days it’s been just a few points shy of the mother ship.

  • BlueHayze

    Random disconnect from the server on Xbox One. Was playing zombies with 3 randoms and doing really well. Round 35 and it boots me. The players’ names weren’t even on the ‘recent players’ tab after I reconnected nor did the theater save the game.

  • Kerryn Alison Brunsden

    Why is black ops not matchmaking but you can do everything else like daily doubles etc?

  • Kevin

    Everytime I put down a Power core the game disconnects and says “Connection with the Server was interrupted.”

  • Eric Hagemann

    the server seems to be atm or something i cant logg in

  • Eric Youngstrom

    Super laggy, connection disconnect with a pop up of a lan cable going out and into a connection port. Is this on you all or is someone hacking the system. I am not alone in seeing this, super frustrating.

  • THEHEAVYTANK

    All the hardcore kill confirmed games I get into i rubber band and lag it happens to my friends and so of them are wired and we all have rubber banding issues and it freezes randomly from time to time and its quite annoying

  • Herman

  • Topher Dalton

    Cant find match. Any game mode multi player is not working. The games also says that 100% of players are in the featured games.

  • Teddy Lous

    I haven’t been able to play BO3 for more than 7 months…. it’s the popular A.B.C.D….E… error code. My patience is running out, and it seems like Treyarch doesn’t care about updates. Sell the game

  • Joseph Gonzales

    Everytime i get to like round 10 or 28 it will start lagging and saying trying to connect to host

    Been experiencing issues since yesterday. Very frustrating

  • Ömer Tayyib Can Cakar

    The Problems are that Treyarch needs to bring an update and some server fixes and that too many people have come back from WW2 and the server capability is overrun

  • Fred Schaan

    you people do realize this is all on purpose right? This is how Activision makes people buy the newer titles.

    • Tacita

      Could be true, but people are starting to dislike ww2 as well now same like IW and ghosts. Dont get me wrong they are nice but the balancing updates incorporate huge differences

  • Guylightskin

  • Michael Gwin

    I’ve been having this issue. It’s seeming like theres no way to get around it. This has been going on for a week now. I don’t know what to do. It’s sad when you own a game and you’re not even able to play it., Saves, progress, upgrades, everything is linked through call of duty servers… Plz fix your sh*t Treyarch!

  • Poopngriddles Poop

    “XUID does not match previous data” message &

  • Deathula

    Keep getting connection interrupted message while you laying multiplayer. Getting really annoying. Have never had an issue till the last few days.

  • Sky Time

    I can’t play zombies or get my rank up any more because of lag issues or join my friends lobby

  • IK

    Since 5th I have had lots of difficulty finding a match. My NAT Type is OPEN and still i could be waiting for an hour to find a match in TDM or Domination. This is ridiculous

  • Jonathan D Jackson

    I can’t join any TDM matches unless I join another player. Just keeps saying searching for player. I have tried my router etc….. All of my other games work fine. What happened?

    • Death Gun

      Same here i dont know how but my connection is fine while joining any one else. Found anything out since then?

  • John Hunt

    Taking a long time to get in a match then everyone and thing is in stutter mode ookla speed test show good repeatedly never over 10 ms in game keeps spiking all over the place 400 ms quite often.

  • Andrew Vaughn

    I’m having an issue of not being able to find a match it will say searching for games then checking quality of games then nothing I’ll have to constantly back out of the lobby and re enter u till I find a group before it used to be pick a mode boom full lobby now bo3 seems like a ghost town can find a zombie match no problem but practically dead otherwise also I checked and my NAT TYPE is open

  • James

    I’ve been having issues for the past few day and it won’t let me connect to servers.

  • IzumiTakeuchi

    major issues with PSN servers interruption messages last night (Sept 6) without internet service or router issues, for online BO3 zombies.

  • Alexandra Clark

    Keeps saying “connection interrupted” during games on Xbox One. Also keep disconnecting me from the servers. What a bunch of bullshit – they release a pack that you need to win 125 games to get or pay for and ever since I started I’ve not been able to play one game without an issue. Fix your shit!!

  • burkey

    Black ops 3 version 1.25 update is on constant update loop. hella frustrating!

  • Megs

    Cool how black ops III keeps “loading my profile” for the last 4 hours.

  • Nhj

    It’s a shame that it is now 2017 we have seen infinite warfare and now another COD game is going to be released in November 2017 and we still have the same problems with Black ops 3 since its release! Treyarc why do you release new content for gamers to purchase when the game isn’t really playable. I’ve had this game since its release and the servers still suck. I stop playing it for months and when I come back to play it again I find there is no improvement to your product but you expect us to buy content when it’s not even worth it. You should be ashamed! Fix your product!!!!

  • Namn Var Malort

Also paid for BO3 Zombie Chronicles, the maps are listed on my game but are inaccessible, I get referred to Steam shop to buy again. Refund requested.

  • Ssif

    I can’t even find a game on multiplayer , every time i search for a game it goes from 0 to 50 with no games found it’s so annoying , the only mode i can play is tdm other modes are not working

  • Jessica Coyle

    This is bull crap. We have multiple ps4s and ONE of the systems is doing this and it’s on all the cod games. Can’t connect to server. All the other ones in the house connect fine. This makes no sense.

  • Marie

    Well this explains the last day or so for me…

  • Antonette J Silos

    No matter what I do, restart my router , restart my game , restart my system it doesn’t let me stay in a game n kicks me out with en error saying ” you have bin disconnected from cod black ops3 servers ” I also can’t be in a party with some people on my friends list.. This is very annoying because I love playing online

    • Corey

  • Kimakishizu

    I’ve constantly been getting disconnected from online, and it’s taking up a bit more data then it should, needs fix asap

  • Sam

    Is there just nobody on black ops 3 anymore? Ive let my queue run for a public free for all match for an hour now and nobody has joined. I can’t tell if the servers are having issues in my area or genuinely no one plays the game anymore

  • Luke

    Keep getting migrating host 1 min in and then everyone drops

  • Joshua “iAmensu” Huff

    I’m lagging so bad. I normally have 30+ kill gameplays with 10 or less deaths (talking about Core TDM), but the last few days I’m lagging like crazy and struggle to even break even, with my maximum kills mostly being around 15. Plus, my attachments aren’t loading in my class selection, but it still says they’re there when I choose the class. And my reticles and crosshairs won’t show up half the time while in-game. I scope in with a sight and have no reticle or crosshair, just a blank sight. For example, when using ELO, I ADS to shoot and I have to bars sticking up with a blank opening between them—the dot isn’t there like it’s supposed to be. But every now and the it shows back up.

    I have a 1 GB connection through Suddenlink and hadn’t had these problems until the last week or two, and then I noticed others were saying stuff also. I have 4 bars AT ALL TIMES. It never fluctuates.

  • Micl44

    OMG i have this problem where i get into a match and i sometimes get kicked almost immediatly if i am lucky i can play 1 minute before getting kicked this sucks i tought it was my stupid wifi but looks like Cod BO3 just is another piece of crap like the previous call of duty’s (it says ‘lost connection to Call of Duty: Black Ops III servers…. something like that)

    • Donvet

      For the past few hours, I have not been able to connect to the BO3 cod server with an abc…error message. I am in the same house with my husband and he is able to connect to the game under his profile and on his xbox one downstairs but i can’t connect upstairs on mine. He even tried to connect my profile on his xbox one downstairs and it does not work at all under my profile, but he can connect under his profile. Just before I lost connection, all of my new weapons were grayed out and I could not select them. When I am on, the lag is unbelievable. I have been with this franchise since day one and I am loosing faith in their ability to deliver great gaming as they did in the beginning. How many more hours? Why am I having these problems? Please fix it yesterday. All of my friends are on, but I can’t get on. Why? Why? Why?

    • Malakylin

      when you first start the game look in the upper right hand corner. it will have 5 numbers seperated by periods. before clicking X for ps4 or whatever it is on xbox wait for the numbers to change from 0 to whatever the patch number is. if you click into the game before hand you will get the abc error.

  • Darren

    Its not just today that the servers are crap. It has been dsconnecting me and others continuously since the games release. You play at peak times you’re disconnected. You play late at night or early morning and have no problems. 5 of my mates have now switched to ps4 now from xbox one. They are now mot having problems.

    • shane

      i dont get that problem on pc. it must be a xbox thing

  • Sarah

    Yeah, I’ve noticed that Black Ops 3 have been having a lot of issues. I am on the One myself and its hard to join parties or it will show someone is at the Main Menu when the player says they are in a game. Servers have been really screwy lately. Instead of spending money on the DLCs they need to update the servers.

    • Ray

      It’s not working right now

  • Chad

    I only played 4 matches on cod bo3. It disconnected me from all those matches after i was done with the match. It didn’t show my results, how much xp that I earned or how many points i get or whatever its called to spent in the black market. Basically, I played all the matches for nothing. Fuck the cod server.

    • Tyrone

      I’ve had the same issue but on Xbox one
      I’ve been attempting to complete the main Easter egg for Gorod Krovi 6 times now and every game I’m just about to head into the boss battle and then it just kicks me from the game!
      Fix your servers treyarch!!!!!!

  • Chad Jones

    I have problems to with the cod bo3 server. It doesn’t say why I was disconnected. Im glad it not my game or ps4.

  • Robert

    On PS4 the servers are down, even though treyarch claim they are fully functional. It took me 30 minutes to connect to online service then a further 15 minutes to find a game. Within 30 seconds of that game, the lobby crashed. Found another lobby bout 10 minutes later before crashing yet again.

  • Vince

    I’m connecting but now I’m waiting for all you guys to connect to play multiplayer lol. All the lobbys are mostly empty. Sucks I have to wait a long time to join a lobby. If I get lucky I have to stay on that lobby cuz if I get off then I’m waiting there again for awhile with only two other players waiting for people to join.

  • Scott Nener

    any luck with ping jumping?

  • Tommy

    For the past few days till today, July 23 2016, I’ve been having major lag spikes and my ping goes from 20 to 400 and stays there. It’s not my Internet cause it happens with no other game and today it keeps migrating host every game and kicking me out of every game even though my ping is fine. It’s literally unplayable at this point t and I hope it gets fixed. Ps. I’m on Xbox one. @treyarch

    • SAME OMG! I have perfect connection to any other freaking game but ever since like a week or two ago bo3 is just gone down for me it sucks!

    • Dawson

      Same on ps4

  • scott

    anyone else with this issue?

    a fix would be mint 🙂

  • This past week there’s been way to many bs downloads for connecting to online service and it keeps resetting after 32% so I can barely play the stupid game.. what happened to just putting in the disc and playing the damn games wasting our time with this bulls**t

  • Ryan

    Was on gorod krovi with three of my mates. Everything was fine until 5minutes ago when we were kicked off the servers and were on round 36 ffs. How unfair is that?

  • Shiraz

    Just got ps4 over a week ago and 5 out of 7 days I’m just connecting to server with 99% and restarting over and over unable to get online.

    • Laura

      Is yours still going like that? Trying to log on today and its doing the same thing ffs

  • D_DOG

    I cant connect to black ops 3 servers for two days now…

  • Wade

    Keeps saying connecting to online service and goes up in % then goes back to 0% tried everything fuck bo3 is a joke! This is on Xbox one been trying for hours and no luck no wonder everyone is switching to BF

  • Justin

    Back up for me on Xbox one. Add me at “StaticGemini510”

    • Justin

      Able to join lobby but no option to vote map. The entire map vote section is gone

      • Kim

        Mine is up but when searching for game is says “searching for games (50 matches) then (0 matches) then back to 50 etc. doesn’t actually find a game. :/

  • Kim

    Xbox one was down. Just came back up for me. Try again.

  • CptCracka

    Xbox 1 servers are crap can’t get in keeps giving me abc error code,I tried restarting Xbox and game but still same issue

    • Austinmiller

      I can’t connect to server either you are not alone been trying for an hour!

  • BO3 updates and server issues are way too common these days on PS4, Update after Update, I understand this has to be done but surely notice should be given to gamers via a mast email or something instead of logging in and having ur game time disrupted, starting to consider going to XBOX ONE cause they actually email you when they do mast migrations, updates or server issues.

    • After every update servers ALWAY go do its BS -.-

  • Alan Ng

    Black Ops 3 servers down right now. Sudden maintenance message on PS4, anyone else?

    • Yeah me to and its pissing me off

  • D.jr203

    Can’t play black ops 3 it keeps taking me to local game and it’s not just Bo3, play station also said it’s going under maintenance

  • DMM

    It keeps counting up to download, then restarts over and over on the “connecting to online service” screen.

    • Michael

      I’m having the same problem

  • Mags

    Can’t get online with Black Ops 3, numbers in top right corner take ages to change. All get the abc…….error. And disconnected from server should i ve lucky enough to get on

  • Rich

    Haven’t been able to sign on to black ops servers since the latest update. Roughly 2 weeks now with no network play. I’ve checked every other possible cause.. only thing left is an issue with server itself.

  • Nicole

    Getting booted off servers constantly, noticing a lot of others getting booted as well

  • Aidan Courts

    Error Code: A.B.C.-.-.F.G.-.-.-.K.-.-.N-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.X.-.-.-.-.

    Cant play multiplayer for a week so far

  • Darkmatter non me la da , non mi da il lancio di rifornimento per il battery ,non mi da le 6 kill per il purifier

  • Joe

    getting the abc error….right after a match ended it booted me from multiplayer and gave me the abc error…all the supposed fixes i’ve found say something about 33.0.whatever but mine is 72.0.0.0

  • Blackops3mademebreakmycontroller

    this is soooooooo broken I cant even recall how many time it wants to download those stupid files I would like to thank treyark for this bunch of aids

  • joe

    why should we continue buying ur games and map packs if they are losing functionality and common sense.. fix your games and servers so we are not dropped during games.. zombies especially.. this is the worst server problem ever.. seems it got worse and worse each game each map pack.. more drops. now its every damn game

  • joe

    trying to play a full game of zombies but servers randomly end games with errors.. right now its happening to 8 out of 9 games.. this sucks fix ur damn servers

    • joe

      ps im in new jersey

      • joe

        round 14 connection interruption?? wtf.. wasted time.. fix this shit.. use some smarts.. older games functioned better..

  • Eliah

    Basically the same but, i just got the game and i was playing local for a bit. After that i decided to give online a go and “Connecting to online services.” yep no problem in my mind. Oh maybe except the fact that IT HAS DOWNLOADED AND RECCHECKED THE FILES ABOUT 15 TIMES NOW AND I DOUBT IT’S GONNA FIX ITSELF. So plz hurry up and get it fixed.

    • Eliah

      And BTW, better make it up. Somehow, just do it quick before you lose a lot of customers.

    • Drakee

      Mine is currently doing the same exact thing! Does anyone have a solution??

    • eamon

      I fixed this problem by leaving my Xbox on the connecting screen for a while and when I came back it was working just like normal

    • Evan

      I’m having the exact same problem, and all of my friends are able to play online. It’s ridiculous and activision or trey arch or whoever needs to fix this stupid problem before they lose a whole lot of customers and money.

  • Mikey

    Yeah I just re-downloaded the game and im stuck at the press enter to start. Btw im on pc and it just says Connecting to Online Service then under that it just says Checking Files

    • Percy

      Can connect, join a server and then get punted for secure server failures (pc – NO changes made). Don’t even start on south americans getting on north american servers with latency issues so bad players quit the match.

  • Colby

    My friends can play but i cant, thanks for this BS ACTIVISION TO HELL WITH PUTTING EFFORT INTO A GAME YOU ALREADY MADE $$$$$

    • JaketSnake

      Offline and can’t connect for several days now. Version 72.0.0.0.0. This sucks!!! In Virginia.

      • Schick

        Same BS here in MD.
        Version 72.0.0.0.0 continuous loop won’t start keeps attempting to connect to online service… Gets to about 45% and kick back to 0.

        This blows!!

      • Chris

        I’m also in Virginia and having the same issue. It’ll get up to about 21% and then starts over again, and it’s been doing this for about 4 hours now. I’m getting extremely frustrated

      • Cho cho

        Same for me. In va

  • Buttjuicemmm

    I can’t believe everyone is so mad they’ve been doing this for at least 10 years. And will lie to you. Except now u can’t even call Activision and complain. Activision sucks.

    • Dave

      This is garbage!! ABC code all night long…Lets get with the program Treyarch!! I paid $50 yearly for support that Im not getting. Its 10:30pm and I cannot join servers as error code comes up ABC …etc!! Im constantly ticked off with the game support Treyarch gives. FIX THE CONNECTION ISSUES PRIORITY NUMERO UNO!!

    • Dave

      Yes u r correct!! ACTIVISION SUCKS WITH SUPPORT AND ONLY WANTS YOUR MONEY…LETS SELL COD POINTS AND CRYPTOKEYS FOR LOTS OF MONEY, THEN SCREW EVERYONE IN THE GAME WITH LOUSY GAME SUPPORT AND NO PHONE NUMBER. ROCKSTAR HAS PHONE SUPPORT AND THEY WILL TALK TO U UNTIL PROBLEM IS FIXED. TREYARCH, U SHOULD TRY THAT AND STOP AVOIDING REAL TIME CALLS AND SUPPORT YOUR CRAPPY GAME. IM NEVER BUYING ACTIVISION AGAIN. R* IS GOOD AND TREYARCH SUCKS. ABC CODES???? WTF IS UP WITH THAT . BEEN DOWN FOR ALMOST 2 HRS NOW WITH NO LUCK!! GARBAGE!!

      • Jerry

        Garbage, game just gets worse the more you fks mess with it. Done with COD. Destiny, tom clancey won’t be long before there are 10 other makers just like you. Activision and konami dead to me! Treyarch fk you to!

    • Mad

      Xbox one bo3 servers are extremely laggy for me right now, and have been since the update. I am in Washington state, connecting to server in Iowa??? Usually connect to the ONE west coast server in Cali, but even when I do connect thete, my ping is way higher than usual;117ms…extremely sick of paying for services that only fulfill their contractual obligation, as to not be caught for false advertising. Yes. You can play online, but, unless you live in California or on the east coast, getting copious amounts of lag makes you not want to play at all. It’s bullspit what Activision has done.

  • That’s happening to me 2 like wth

  • Yampydog

    Seriously annoyed as I can’t connect to online service and that just ruins the game today for me. Not happy with save being off my device.

    • KingMonyet

      Its ridiculous. Haven’t been able to play on the PS4 for a day or two now because the servers are terrible. Treyarch needs to fix their crap servers instead of wasting time putting useless things in Supply Drops.

  • Jose

    Yea I’m having issues too

    • Jose

      When will this be fixed?

      • Jade

        Turn your Xbox completely off wait about 30 seconds. Once you’ve done that, Unplug the cord in the back of your Xbox. It’ll refresh the apps and games but you still keep everything. It should work

    • B

      Im having the same issue. I uninstalled and reinstalled, and it still doesn’t work. Still has the 65.0.0.0.0 on the creen.

  • Alan Ng

    Black Ops 3 server problems on June 8 confirmed. Defcon 4 on PS4, Xbox One and PC right now. Anyone else having issues?

    • Jose

      Yea I’m having issues too

  • Andrew

    Same issues where my my game says been disconnected from server then i to press play online rush through the multiplayer, get into a half done game then finish that game then kicked from server again. Then repeat. I’ve honestly lost my love for call of duty. I haven’t been able to play properly. Paid 70$ for bullshit. However lately I’ve been playing battlefield hardline never have problems with BF.

  • mig

  • Deni

    BO3 Server not available at this time. It wasn’t 2 and a half hours ago I was playing online. Top right corner is 65.0.0.0.0. What gives? I pay for access to play online and servers say I can’t? Treyarch, are you reimbursing me for the times I can’t connect? How about reliable servers and a logical maintenance schedule.

    • Skippy

      Same problem all day today, cannot connect from Phoenix…

    • Bodybag

      I say we all get together or at least you and I and sue activision and treyarch.

  • Graphikal9725

    For about a week or 2 i have been unable to play online multiplayer in COD BO3. I get kicked after a few seconds and an error message comes up: communication with the playstation servers has been interrupted. I am logged in still and able to play every other online game. I have emailed both playstation, activision and Treyarch several times but still have gotten no response. So what is the problem here and how will it be made right???

    • Graphikal9725

      Just in case it matters, I am in LA.

  • Devin

    I just upgraded to faster internet with Xfinity and I get on my Xbox one and connect to the new internet connection and I started Black Ops 3 and joined a multiplayer match and it kept saying connection interrupted and eventually it would kick me out and it kept saying that every time I try and join a new match and my internet connection works fine on other games but Black Ops 3 right now and my internet connection is 75 megabytes per second so I don’t know what the problem is with Black Ops 3 right now

    • Jordan bull

  • Josh

    I have played Black ops 3 on PS4 to get my 75 wins to open my dlc weapon supply drop as well as my 10 rare supply drops. When I went to open them, it said “Your rewards are being processed. Sorry for any inconvenience. Please check back later”. Please fix this I would like to have my rewards soon.

  • derek

  • Cheddi Dillon

    A few hours ago, I completed the special black market contract on my play station 4 (Win 75 games). I went to the black market to redeem my 10 rare supply drops and bribe that ensures one dlc weapon and words pop up that say “Your rewards are being processed. We apologize for any inconvenience. Please check back later.” Please fix this ASAP I really want my rewards!

    • Dan

      I sometimes get on but most of the time not at all. And if I do my ping is one bar. It’s not my router or my Xbox I have reset both and I am now using Ethernet cable but it’s still the same. I had the same issue two weeks ago and it went on for six days then was ok for about a week. Now it’s doing it again it’s been a week since I had a good connection now.

      It was working well with my 2ND router from xfinity that connect to the main xfinity router. Then my bro decided to go with the main xfinity router without the 2nd router and this ABC errors occur all day…12 hrs of research and found this guy say something like Comcast and Sony WiFi don’t work well together. Best to go Lan line. So I try it and it works. U guy can give this a try.

      • Cha

        Use a Lan cable

  • Kaleb

    Let’s me online but when I search for a game it just doesn’t find one for me very annoying! Also when I try joining my friend it says that the lobby is not joinable! This needs fixing fast!

    • The Foyster

      Just turned the xbox one off. Got disconnected today about 5 times. Even got frozen out of Zombies The Giant. About 10 min ago I was just in a lobby doing quite well when I was sent straight back to the opening screen with another message saying you have been disconnected from bo3 servers. Turned it off in frustration. You cannot enjoy the game your are always anticipating a disconnection

      • Owen Thomas

        Same problem for me multiple times

        Two days ago, I was playing der eisendrache on round 45 just to be launched back to the title screen. Tried again last night, made it to 40 and, boom, same occurrence. Thanks Treyarch

    • logan

      Same here… the game is being very annoying right now.

    • shawn

      I can’t play online . The server keeps crashing when or if i do find a online match.
      These are Rockstar standards . Why is a Activision game working like this ?
      If this continues Black ops 3 will loose money when they get bad reviews and no customers .

  • Micheal Roberts

    I’mhaving troubles connecting to my friends pparty’sit always says the lobby is not jjoin able and my friends are all having thesame issue … would like to know if i can fix it myself or not

    March 21 as stated. I cannot connect to the online multiplayer. It directs me to local. It tells me error code…A.B…..F.G…..

    • Shwingading

      Yep I get the same error message. I just installed a cat6 under the house so I can have a better connection. It really helped with everything but Black Ops. Nothing can save Black Ops. So basically I just spent 40 dollars to polish a turd.

    Just like to point out, I have both PS4 and Xbox one and to be honest I can easily spot the difference.

    Ps4 version is a lot smoother, runs textures more efficiently and allows access to finding a match online a lot faster. Runs at 1080p 95% of the time

    Xbox one version tends to have trouble loading textures in both campaign, and multiplayer (including zombies) at a 900p instead of 1080p. Also noticed screen slicing aswell but that could be caused by lag (normal).

    So in the experiences I’ve had, the only solution I can give to the public is to wait until activision gives a full maintenance update for both console versions, if ps4 players have issues aswell. But this is an absolute must for Xbox one players.

    Finding a match is simply a piece of shit , and gives connection interrupted every so 10 seconds or if your lucky..3,5 minutes. Although this has never changed since Black Ops 1 anyway :/

  • Eric VanVleck

    Currently I can only play the campaign bc when i enter the game it checks the files and when it’s complete it tells me that it can’t connect to the server. It then promptes me to play local. I’ve tried everything from resetting my ps4 to deleting and reinstalling the with no results. It really frustrates me bc I’ve played black ops 2 a lot on my ps3 and i baught my ps4 solely for BO3.

  • Anthony Casillas

    I was experiencing issues accessing multiplayer in Black Ops 3 on Monday, March 14th. A simple reset of the PS4 resolved the issue.

    • Anthony Casillas

      I would like to add that I had no issues with connectivity throughout the rest of my PS4 applications. I was solely having trouble accessing Black Ops 3.

    • Ryan Cooper

      I restarted and it worked for a moment. Then went back to kicking me off. I love working 12 hour days just so I can not enjoy playing over the weekend. Should have stuck with xbox.

      • osamalahdev

        not shouldnt…xbox is fuccing up so bad its rumors saying that microsoft is getting rid of there hardware(xbox) and sticcing with software(pc)

      • Jake

        It’s not the ps4, it’s black ops 3 servers that’s fucked up

        • Bennett

          I have a ps4 and I love puttin some work in on search and destroy but I can only play about half a game till it kicks me and says “disconnected from server” which pisses me off. I restart my xbox but it keeps on happening

    • Kelsey

      Try to reset your router and your game system for 5 minutes. When you start everything back up, go to your internet conection on your game system and set that up how you want and make sure it’s good. Once your done with that, take the disc out and put it back in. That’s what I did and it worked. Hope this helps

    • Justice

      Yeah same. Bloomfield,IN

    • marcus wilson

      have yous tried taking the cord out of the back and plugging it back in.

  • Hi.
    My version is 52.0.21.0.0 after I have waited a few minutes before pressing A (XBOX ONE), but that hasn’t fixed my ABC error.
    kind regards

  • First just restart the Xbox and then try to play the game and then take it out and close application and reload game (will take some time) worked for me

    • My number in the top right is 52.0.0.0.0 what’s yours

  • Mike

    Seems like we all have the same probem. Day 1 of BO3 has been laggy on Xbox One. Yesterday was CRAZY laggy, March 4th. Today March 5th, server errors and totally unable to connect. THESE SERVERS SUCK!!!!!! Time to go PS4, or to find a new game besides COD. Over it.

    • Geo

      Got the ps4 been showing up with the abc error for over a month, bloody useless. Ive been restaring the game taking the disc out multiple times, restarting the console done everything and STILL NOT WORKING!!!!!!

    So far have unplugged console router modem all day, waited hours on start screen, waited for top right update number to change, reinstalled game, checked download upload speeds, changed dns settings.. Nothing works!!!!!
    So over it

    • John

      Ps4 connection issues past 2 weeks. Ping bouncing from 5 to 400 to 125 to 400 etc. This game f***ing sucks. It’s the damn servers in 3rd world countries. Hot fix what? The only fix needed is connection based. I could give 2 sh*to if my shotgun range is 2% further now. I can’t play long enough to use it.

  • Carter

    Are you serious with these error codes…A.B.-.-.etc.. Going on for a few months. Call of duty is wrong for this on the XBox 360. You should have people working around the clock to fix this. Can you say boycott or law suit!

  • JERRY DOCKERY

    Cant even get to join a game , double xp week end my arse !

    • Shane

      I know right, and even when I do finally get on the servers I get stuck on checking for match (50 games) and then I disappears

    There is no way I would consider buying s Season Pass or map packs anymore. COD has been going down hill year after year and the greediness has led to poor servers. I wish I had never purchased this game

    Why are the servers still crazy? I have turned my modem off for over 10 min to reboot it I am hard wired in my internet connection is fine.bo3 is the only game that I am having problems with..all the money we pay and keep getting kicked of the server…

    • Tazly

      My boyfriend and I play in the same room. He’s cabled. I’m wifi–a foot from the modem and router.
      His connection drops then reinstates. “connection interruption”.
      My xbox, ps4, 360 always loads the match countdown before he even gets in game.
      This is pathetic and I agree with you–told him to send a gift basket to microsoft–he’s port forwarded and cabled and still experiencing issues –ticked someone off I think..even replaced the router..

  • Vince

    Its been completely fine playing Cod these past few months, maybe with a few glitches here and there . But now i cant get into matches. I have no problems finding matches, but as soon as the match is about to finish loading up and the loading bar is just about full, i get disconnected and i get error message: “Game session no longer available”. Zombies works completely fine so i really dont understand what the problem is. This has been a problem for me since last night. (Feb. 16)

  • Dominic

    ı wasn’t able to play BO3 for almost 4 months but guys I have news. Today I bought another modem and It works perfectly fine now. The problem isn’t with the game it has sth to do with your wifi. So buy a different one and play. I hope this help cuz I am so happy and ıI want people to be happy too

    • Fille

      That isnt the problem. Its the game. If you look at the server status it says that some people might experience problems

  • The dude

    Why can’t tryarch get this right ever. 3 years to put out a game that doesn’t work. I would accept dialed back graphics for a working game. I can do with out the super HD loading screens for a game that works. You guys could’ve worked on this game for 6 years and it’s still would be crap. The weirdest thing is NO ONE IS ON COD ANYWAY. EVERYONE IS PLAYING BATTLEFIELD AND RAINBOW SIX. THIS SHOULD BE AN EASY FIX. ITS NOT EVEN LIKE THERE ARE ALOT OF PEOPLE TRYING TO PLAY COD. I can’t even play Solo campaign without an internet connection?!?! No ready up option for zombies? Long obnoxious loading screens for an HD shot of a campfire?!?! Who the hell cares about a camp fire I want to play a game that works, period. HD home screens do not impress me. Games that work consistently don’t even impress me, that’s what they are supposed to do. If the game doesn’t work do not release it. Now I know why 90% of my friends from COD are all playing RAINBOW SIX and are waiting for the division. COD is dead. They are milking as muhc money as they can and once they get your money they couldn’t give a rats ass if it works. Yea I’m sure they have some MIT drop out or some Indian working on it right now, but why does it get this bad in the first place. Does tryarch do any preventative maintainance at all. Or do they just wait for the all the servers to crash before they realize they are neglecting their customers. This is serious bullshit. What’s worse is the COD website proudly says all the servers are operational which is bullshit. I’m in a party with 4 people but cannot connect to COD. I can play titan fall no problem. And that’s all this game is, a colorful knock off version of titan fall. It’s sad that Activision fired the top designers of infinity ward, just to buy their next big idea and then totally mess it up. I don’t think titan fall ever had a problem ever!!! I have never been denied connectivity in titan fall. Or battle field. This is literally the only game that has issues and I’m done.

    Error Code: A.B.C.-.-.F.G.H.I.J.K.-.-.N.-.-.Q.-.-.T.U.-.W.X.Y.Z.a.

    • Getting error code I can’t connect to server. Says something about code a.b. -h. I.j. k.-n.-.w. x.y.z. or something. Tried contacting isp no problems there. Tried restarting ps4. Everything is fine except it won’t let me play online. It seems a lot of people are going through this problem. Anybody have any insight or solution. Sony hasn’t really said much except unplug the ps4 & contact isp. Hope they get this worked out. Kind of a bummer right after paying a lot of money for dlc and game itself. There’s been many problems on top of this one and I don’t know what is going on but any advise would be appreciated. Thanks guys

      Severs are back online guys

    • Unplug your ps4 completely, wait for about two minutes and plug it back in. It should work I had the same problem with the error ABC and I’m playing bo3 right now

      • This worked for me! Unplugged the PS4 for about 5 minutes and then plugged it back in and got on as if nothing was wrong. Be sure to let it completely power down before unplugging. YouTube.com/DezOnerz

    Bit annoying, been stuck at home with flu for 2 days. Had the strength to fire up a few games around 1pm GMT. Towards 5pm was giving random kicks from games resulting in a blue screen on and off. Switched off around 7pm. Came back just now and bang, all is down!

    Same problem here it’s 3:55pm and still the same error code A.B.C.-.-F.G.H… But it’s only an update as you can see and the top right corner of the screen there’s some numbers if they change its that its updating mine where 48.0.0.0.0.0.0 and changed to 48.0.12.5.0 but it is still not letting me play online I guess the update it’s not finished yet. They are also saying this:
    Allow the game to update in the main loading screen. You will know if an update was installed if the version number in the upper right hand corner changes. This should only take about a minute depending on your connection speed.

  • Ali saeed

    BO3 released a huge network update on monday. It was working for me on monday and Tuesday. But I just sat down to play and its not working. From what I understand, they published the network update sooner than it should have been released and that is now giving them alot of issues.

    The file was almost 7 gigs in size.

    But its not all bad news they have posted a website for the status updates:

    http://www.callofduty.com/blackops3/status

    • Ali saeed

      Btw on the website it says that “all online services are fully operational” for PS4&PS3, XBOXone & 360 and PC.

      But it says the one server is online and that is DEFCON5, servers 1-4 are down.

  • elpi b

    between waiting on the servers to let me online and searching google for how come there is all these ridiculous lag issues im experiencing on a 17ms ping connection to the closest dedicated server i’ve spent more time doing that than actually enjoying this game.Also snipers are completely ruined for absolutely everybody not just quick scopers and aggressive snipers but then if you swap to your side pistol you will outgun all other classes easily.

  • comic

    Sunday Jan 23 2016 I can’t even acess the game just sits there saying connecting to online servic this is a real let down I have had the game a week now and haven’t been able to play one single game. I truly want my money back.

  • Th4tsWut5heSaid

    You have had 3 months to fix this crap. This is the worst release ever on what couldve been the best cod ever. You had about 3 years to do this cod. 3 years to put out a cod we cant even play..on new gen, old gen, pc…nobody can play it. Bet you are enjoying our money though..fn tools..FIX IT. FIRE PEOPLE AND HIRE PEOPLE WHO KNOW WHAT THE HELL THEY ARE DOING.

  • Heen

    BO3 down Jan 23 2016 @2:03pm
    Can’t even play the offline game. No message from Activision about any maintenance schedule. I can’t wait until the new Call of Duty comes out so I don’t buy it and hopefully there will be less lag on this game. Seriously they like to praise on how much fans they have but don’t do enough to fix their servers. I have 100mpbs connection wired NAT open and I can’t play a day without lag issues. They promote the DLC but for what? More maps to lag on?

    • le1gh70

      Put ya Nat type to moderate stops you being the host, worked for me very little lag

  • Andrew

    It is 19:44 (7:44pm) January 21st, Chicago IL. CTU (Time Zone) I am able to connect to BO3 servers but after about half of a game i am disconnected from the servers. I am able to re connect immediately, but it does the same thing every time i join a game. no solution found. worked fine yesterday and no patch or update that im aware of. also no error message.

  • Mike Pol

    Its january 19 at 420 pm and as of right now i am unable to connect to the BO3 servers. Im playing on xbox one and although matchmaking has been a tad bit laggy these past few days this is the first time this problem has occurred. The website shows servers are up and running and the xbox website only says that downloadable content and the history channel app are on the fritz. Anyone else encountering this problem??

  • Alex

    Server matchmaking has been extremely bad the last week or so. The frustration varies from teammates being booted during the matchmaking wasting time and a loss to back out to regroup or you get thrown into a game the is 39-128 (you can guess who is winning…) and then the game will randomly choose if it’ll actually give you a loss stat. Just now my girlfriend and I were playing (2 PS4 systems hardwired) and the game abruptly stopped, she got booted completely to the lobby and i was rerouted to a new game on a different map and users. Just a heads up though, there is a sh*t ton more i’m seeing but I’m withholding.

    Thank you.

  • leo

    Since I first tried multiplayer every game I get into I get the connection interrupted message and rubberband about 3-4 seconds back. It’s a consistent reoccurance and makes the game very unappealing. I’ve tested my connection and it’s 30mbps DL 13mbps UL and game version is 43.12.38.5 and I don’t have this problem on any other game I play I hope they can fix or give pointers to fix this problem because the game is fun to play.

  • React Fanboy

    I’m on Xbox One and Multiplayer Servers are working fine for me, but will not join me into a Zombies game.

  • Can’t get into a game, keeps kicking us out. Everyone is lagging when we actually do get into a game. It’s hard to even get into a friends lobby correctly without it saying some kind of error

  • Adam

    I have been getting the alphabet codes on PC for about a week. Have not been able to play yet. However, if you tell Activision, they will claim it’s your router’s fault. I was able to play just fine, on the same pc, on the same router, just a couple of weeks ago.

  • Sexy DJ DannyM

    Holy shit you guys are wankers this game hsa been out for the best of almost 4 months give it a chance battlefield 4,3 and black ops 1 and 2 werent great with servers,nat types or even net codes in the first 4 months they gotta spend time updating the game but thanks to people like you,you want the game as quickly as possible so they gotta rush and get it out before they get the chance to finalise it just give them a break and theyll fix the issue,yes its annoying but you just gotta wait and all the problems will be resolved in a huge update.and btw its activision that make and own the servers not treyarch so if you want to complain to treyarch about this issue nothing will happen this is the fault of activision and activision alone.all treyarch does is make the game and support multiplayer by using activisions servers.
    So please just wait im sure in another 2-3 months black ops 3 will be the game we all hope it to be and will love like black op 1 and 2 just think about when those games first came out they werent perfect so just give it time please!

  • Saul Sevilla

    Have they fixed the issue yet for PS4??!!!!

  • steve

    have not been able to play bo3 for 6 days status says everything is ok but wont load profile or connect to server. should be a class action brought against them. They have no problem taking our money but the game is worthless if you cant actually play it.

  • GazdaJoza

    I get “Connecting to Online Service” and then it says “Checking Files / Downloading 3%”and it loops between those forever, left it for like 1 hour nothing happens. This is frustrating and needs to get fixed urgently.

    • Rob

      I get the same thing, i have not been able to get on for 2 weeks because of this problem.

  • I just bought this game on pc and was so excited to play it for the first time and it has trouble connecting to the Internet and if i can finally get it to load a game with just me in it it lags very bad and now won’t connect at all HIGHLY dissapointed totally unplayable FIX THIS NOW!!! The game is completely F***** up

  • Noman Moughal

    I don’t no why the hell I bought that game. I got game yesterday and from yesterday till 5 pm today Thursday I did not get chance to play a game one feeling time.

  • KLew

    I’ve been getting the Alphabet Code error message and all the other error messages provided above.
    I barely have a chance to play my game since I go to work and school full time. So when I get a chance to play my game I would actually appreciate it if it would freakin work.
    Seriously, I spent too much money on this game, membership and system for my PS4 to just sit here and not be functional.

    FIX THE FREAKIN SERVER FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!

  • Tim richard

    Yep constant connection interrupted in game and kicked as a result almost every game totally unplayable, starting to regret buyin the season pass 🙁

  • Tracy

    I also have been trying to connect Black Ops 3 on XBox one. It downloads, says checking files and then downloads again. Is on a never ending loop as far as I can tell. Anyone have any fixes?

  • Ray

    It’s allowing me to go online, but it takes a while to find a game on any playlist and when it does find one, it’s usually lagging.

  • CHANG

    Having Issue signing on. Its said downloading and checking files. It go to 1% to 20% and back down to 1% and then it goes up to 90% and then is says checking files. Its been going on for 3 days now. Today is Jan 12 2016. This is All happening on my xbox one but on my xbox 360 I can sign on. So I know its not the server problem. I wonder what the problem is for the Xbox one

    • Caleb

      Having the same exact issue

      • Chang

        Hope you got on. I just waited until it did its thing. It had to download all the stuff it needs for COD 3. It works for me now but sometimes it does the same thing but be patient and let it do its thing.

  • christopher lawrance

    HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD THE ISSUE OF “THE CURRENT PROFILE IS NOT ALLOWED TO PLAY ON XBOX LIVE” ?

    IF SO ANY SUGGESTIONS OF HOW IT CAN BE FIXED

    • harry

      Yes i have that error! No idea
      how to fix it though.

      • christopher lawrance

        is there anyway we can contact treyarch ?

  • ISHI_GAM3

    Ive been getting a pop up every time i get on bo3 and it was couldn’t sync data from this profile or something like that (answer: remove and add your account from your xbox one) but then i tried it and it was gone and niw i get another pop up saying “Connecting To Online Service” and it always went from 10-35% until it restarted and said checking files. if anyone could please help me i would appreciate it.

    • Lyle

      So I got this game for XboxOne and had mad fun playing online untill this weekend when the servers went down. Since then I cannot play online. I have to put my box in offline just to play local because I get “Connecting to Online Service” and then it says Checking Files / Downloading and it loops between those forever, left it for like 2hours nothing. This is frustrating and needs to get fixed urgently. I checked other online games like NFS which is only online and that works perfectly. clearly not my line or any other setting but the servers are messed. Now all I can play is campaign and local split screen.

      Another issue that I found (unrelated) is that in campaign splitscreen the game bombs out when both players are configuring weapon loadout, just fyi. My COD is updated to version 43.0.0.0.

      • Chris

        Same :/

    • I have a solid internet connection and nat type 1 (open) and since Sunday night I’ve been experiencing constant disconnects to black ops servers. My psn connection stays on but booted out of almost every match within minutes and have to conn ct again and that never lasts until the end of a single match since this starts happening. I don’t know if there’s just a plethora of lag switchers or what but multiplayer is broken and unplayable for me at the moment.

  • Sean

    I’m on PS4 no solution still , it just says Not connected to Playstation Network or to COD servers and it won’t let me even get to a multiplayer menu , every other game works great …..

    • FkUrface

      Same problem on my PS4. Played Sunday night with a lot of lag and glitching. Monday (1-11-16) not able to maintain a connection to BO3 servers. As soon as I get into Multiplayer it kicks back to the connection screen and says I’ve lost my connnection. If I just rapidly click on the join game button I can sometimes get into a match but I don’t have enough time to change what type of game (TDM, Dom, KC, etc) before it disconnects again.

      These are the worst servers I’ve ever played on across the entire COD platform.

    • does anybody know when the servers will be up yet?!?!?Please help?!

      Mines says that theres 0 of 25 games. But all my other games work perfectly.

    I purchased BO3 for my XBOX ONE then decided I wanted to play on the PC because I suck on consoles..
    Anyway.. I have been playing the PC version flawlessly until today.. all day I get the Alphabet Error Code and not able to connect.

  • Derek Lienhardt

    Stuttering on PS4 online menu screens, freezing errors resulting in closing the app entirely. The most consistent issues in games are connecting to west coast and central regions (I’m east coast) and hit detection is completely f*****. (Although pink spikes could be the reasoning since randomly spikes jump to 175+ on a regular basis in most games I’ve tried to play). Most games seem fine at first but the random spikes can ruin the game to being unplayable IMO. And I don’t understand why the issues are so consistent, since having open NAT, ports forwarded, ISP switched and including data services upgraded just to be having issues persist. 50+ down, 10 up, ping 34 avg. with 1Gig hard wired, bandwidth 4000+ avg and PS4 is the only item used/connected to router/modem while playing.

  • Hannah

    Everytime I play a multiplayer match it kicks me off half way through, with the error ‘you have been disconnected from the black ops 3 servers’. Sometimes (rarely) it will work fine and I can play for an hour without it disconnecting, other times it will disconnect every single game. Wasted my money, thanks Treyarch.

    • Kev

      Dec 24th servers are up and down like a yo yo, Kcked out saying lost connection, laggy poor connection and not swopping to a better host in game.
      Matchmaking is a joke, whilst in pre game lobby it will only ever try max 4 games to join, for a franchise this old from a company Treyarch for which this is not their first rodeo i think this is as stated robbery as they are clearly unable to deliver the goods.
      I feel for the kids that will be right annoyed when they can’t play the game especially on the 25th Dec when i imagine problems will peak !!
      I’ll pop in WOT and suffer 0 issues with game play.
      It really does amaze me that these people can’t handle the amount who want to play online it’s like we sold 10 million copies but thought ony 122 people would go online..Melt down..

    You guys are nothing but thieves. You sell a game thatxdoesnt even work properly and then have no support except Twitter who has never gotten back to me. I get the ABC error every damn day. My internet provider knows my name by heart now because I initially thought it was them. I can play any other call of duty title with no issue at all. I’m kind of happy this happened though because now I know not to buy another treyarch game because it doesn’t work half of the time!!

    I can’t even log on to the servers, when I try to connect it says, “communication with the Playstation network servers has been interrupted” then when I back out and look at my network connection it says, “connected to the Playstation network, not connected to call of duty servers.” I’m on a ps4, any ideas?

    • Tyler

      On the loading screen when it says Connecting to Online Service, it sticks at “Downloading” and constantly loops the percentage over and over again. Then randomly it will switch to checking files and do it over and over again. Any thoughts?

    The problem with the connectivity issues simply lies in the fact that for xbox 360, there is only 1 server. And im sure they don’t plan on fixing it or adding more servers because Microsoft has this genius idea to discontinue xbox live for the 360 consoles before 2017. They make billions of dollars but could care less about the satisfaction of their own products. Time to grow up people and save your money and find more healthier choices to make in your life besides sitting in front of a TV. Its bad for your eyesight, health, and makes you lazy. Thank you for reading this. I hope this helps.

    They really need to get things tightned up there is still way too many inconsistancys with the guns amoung other things.

  • Sandeep

    Constantly see the following problems:
    connection lost, host migration, obscure error messages, game takes 5 to 10 minutes to load, and sometimes the game loads but I’m the only one on the map!

  • wrinklypinkeye

  • Dirk

    working again !! dont need to restart youre modem just run the game 🙂 happy days

    • Mickey

      Wasn’t working but when I followed the post below it worked just fine.

  • Hurley

    I found the fix for this and I’ve been going on all the forums to let you know how to fix this.
    1. Turn off your console.
    2. Restart your modem.
    3.Re-open the game start a local match and then end it.
    4. Open the game again and it should be working.
    Hope this works for you and happy gaming! -Hurley

    • Abbot D.

      Wow! Really works. Thanks so much! I can still take advantage of double xp. Thanks again. Cya on the battlefield. Btw Hurley, i’m the top fragger NA :p -saucegod_jay (PSN)

    Last night i played about 3 complete games online with no problem. That’s the most amount of games i’ve played since it’s release. Why is nobody from Treyarch responding to any of these problems, i’ve seen so many people asking unanswered questuions?!?! I’m getting really wound up i can’t play a game i’ve payed a lot of money for! I’ve tried almost everything i can think of to fix this issue, can i please have some professional assistance, THANKYOU.

  • Alicia

    Ok if you are getting the abc error 3700000. I’m a girl and I didn’t stop till I figured it out so pay attention. Unplug your eather net cable from your Xbox. Turn your modem off. Now you might get frustrated like me but you gotta set your Xbox back to factory settings. Which means you will lose every thing downloaded on your Xbox. But you can download them again. Ok after you do all that, turn your modem on. Let it power up. Do not plug the eather net cable in yet. You will have to use wifi. Download the game. You should be able to play on line. For me every time I plug in my eather net cable it won’t let me play on line. So it could be my modem. But I’m able to play on line via wifi. So try it and if it works you’re welcome, happy gaming.

    • Darren

      thats the most ridiculous fix so far

  • My nat type is open…bt o keep getting booted…y!!! also my cryptokeys are not adding on and when i do hit the black box…i dont get anything bt my keys are gone…this sucks!!!!

  • Pieter

    After every Steam update, the game resets to version 37.0.0.0 and refuses to connect to online service.
    The update method really sucks.
    This time resetting the port forwarding doesn’t help anymore. Result: can’t play the game online.

    • Ruv1

      I’ve got the same problem was once i gt it rite and played working fine. Thn got an update n thn bck to the same sh#t 37.0.0.0 andits been 2 weeks now tried evrythng tht worked b4 nd now it doesn’t. They waste tym on buffing weapons nd scorestreaks. Y not try to fix the error code a.b.c 1st so tht we cn play atleast!!!

  • Armando

    “Cannot connect to the server”

  • Caroline

    I haven’t been able to connect to the online servers for two days now. You spend all this money on a TV, PlayStation, PlayStation Plus, and the game, and you’re not even able to play. Also, I’m missing out on the weapon 2XP. This is honestly bullshit and I don’t see how it hasn’t been fixed yet. Especially because I’m the only one on my friends list experiencing these issues, so everyone in the area I live are able to get on just fine, and haven’t experienced any issues whatsoever.

  • Victor

    Cant play online every 5 seconds it will say connection timed out but im 100% sure its not my connection because iv looked into that and my internet is fine i have no interruptions

  • TeamGlock22

    Connecting to online service and then the error code ABC pops up can’t connect to the internet

    • Fleazy

      Go into settings. Network settings. Go “offline” the. Reload your black ops game and enter multiplayer. Once u are at the start screen for multiplayer. Go back into settings and go “online”. It should reset

  • Skids

    Cannot enter a game, analysing games then nothing happens. If I manage to enter a game, it loses the server. Utter rubbish.

    • Thomas

      if you are having these issues while your console if on hold down the power button until the console turns off, then press the power button again and wait for the console to come up. it will look like you reset your console but all you did is refreshed it. open up black ops 3 and everything should work. hope i helped you!

        Same!

  • Player

    The biggest pile of dog crap I ever paid money for. First, they dont allow for split screen on the 360 so my son and I can’t play together, THEN they have the absolute WORST online experience I have ever seen. Wait 10 minutes until you can actually get into a game and play all the way through without some sort of server error or disconnect THEN if you’re really lucky, you’ll get 2 games in before the the whole thing craps he bed and you have to start all over again looking for a game.

    They’ve had plenty of time to work out whatever bugs may be in the online part.

    I can’t come up with the words to explain how angry and disappointed with Xbox and Activision for this pathetic excuse for a COD game.

    It will be the last one I purchase, that’s for sure.

    • Stella

      ONLINE Game SUCKS

    • cristian

      Hey, i don’t know anything about your life, but you should really upgrade to a newer console, the prices have dropped down to around 350 and even if you were to save even one dollar a day ever since console release, you would have been able to buy a new one, just saying. It’s really easy for me to find a match on xbox one and i almost never lag out.

      • angel

        It isn’t just 350, it is an extra controller, not to mention buying all the games again, regardless if they offer you a bundle pack. you are looking at 500+

    If you purchase a defect item you have the right to return the same, what should be different here?? Remove it from my Steam if you want.

    Anyone know if the above is possible? I have enough games to keep me busy, really don’t have time to get frustrated to try an play a game which is more expensive than other games only to find out it doesn’t work…what a joke!

  • Bought the ps4 bundle with black ops 3 and haven’t been able to even enjoy it with it continuously kicking me for the A. B. C. Errors and cannot connect to the Internet. Please fix this.

  • Jimbo Jonah

    Keep being disconnected on Xbox one when playing online and its so frustrating!! Literally get to 4 mins in an online match or round 2 on zombies then I am disconnected.. Error code:Abcde… Whatever the hell it is keeps popping up as well. Seriously needs to be sorted out as no other game does this!

  • Zaphod

    Got PC version and haven’t been able to play since I bought the game last week. I get an “A.B.C.D. network error” and won’t connect. Until the last patch, I couldn’t even play the campaign offline! This is the WORST release of ANY game I have played in 35+ years…they should be ashamed to release such a product without checking for MAJOR bugs like people can’t connect! I been playing COD since the original, but probably no more if this doesn’t get fixed ASAP!

  • luis

    So when you log in wait for a while when the server is 33.19 not 33.00.00. Then continue through then the ABC error WILL happen. Accept the error go in and click on play online during that time have a friend invite you a game invite or join in session. Once that happens you will not go into the game with him but on your bottom right you will see Nat type open or moderate and you may get the ABC error again. Once you notice those things click on multiplayer and voila you’re in. It a long step and takes time but that one is way to get in

  • jose

    cant log into activision servers at this point i just want my money back.

  • Ed A

    Xbox 360 – 11-16-2016

    Look for multiplayer matches. Join lobby. Bottom left corner missing map options. No countdown. Game never starts.

    This happens on all attempts. Even tried zombies but nothing.

  • Eileen

    Randomly stopped working after the last patch on PS4. Downloads update and apparently installs it but still the initial version 3.0.0.0.0

    Tried everything, open NAT, reinstalling the game several times…nope.

    All I get now is it trying to connect online with “checking files”

    Unplayable. DISGRACED.

  • Shibazz

    I only bought this for the zombies so at least I can play zombies solo while I wait…. Oh thats right you cant play solo zombies on steam unless you are signed into COD BO3 servers. Good job Trey-Arch. Good job.

      Open NAT, solid 50 Meg connection, wired and wireless tested. Randomly getting “Error You have been disconnected from th Call of Duty: Black Ops III servers. Sometimes it lets me play 30 minutes, most times when it starts happening it hits me every 3 to 5 minutes. It might be worth mentioning that I am an IT Director, so when I say my network is solid, I’m not speaking in ignorance. They Need To Fix This Now. I feel like I just threw $100 down the toilet.

  • Audrey

    I have black ops 3 for ps4, I’ve done every tip and NOTHING is working. I’m at 33.19.20.1 and it will say connecting to online services and the percentage will start to go into the negatives and give me the abc error!

    • Omer

      I have the exact same problem. I have been trying to connect for the last 7 days, I have done everything I have seen online and even called my router and internet provider but still no solution.

  • It hasn’t been 3 weeks and you already nuked the game by making the double hit melee kill a single hit making your level 40 combat knife useless I based my choice on prestige on that that that would be an instant kill. way to go

    Getting the error code abcdrf-hijk-n—-uvwxyz.. restarted everything to do with my internet.. this games a waste of money thank god i didn’t buy it #gameshare #xboxlivesuck #waste of money

  • Cody duncan

    Just bought the game and can’t even play multiplayer. This is rediculius. Here spend $60 to not be able to play thanks a lot

    • Timo

      Same here, spend 70€ and I bought this game 5 days ago and I still can’t play multiplayer. It keeps giving me this Error code: A.B.C.D.E.F…. NAT is open and nothing’s wrong with my Internet connection.. I don’t understand..

      • Jorge

        Restart the game. Wait in the main Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 title screen. That means do not press X or A right away. After about a minute an update should load. On the screen you will see a version starting with 33.1 instead of 33.0.

        • Omer

          I have been doing that for 6 days now, still has not worked. Any other tips?

  • Talon

    This game is NOT working as of the 13th of November 2015 in Australia NSW xbox one on xbox live network.
    Bloody shocking..

  • Zaphod

    This is terrible. Just got Black Ops 3 for PC and getting a stupid A..b..d.. connection error. I wish Developers would fix their crap before releasing it!

  • Halley

    I can’t join my friends free for all lobbies, even though there is toom. Anyone having this issue?

  • Anthony Fabre

    What the hell. Every time I play multiplayer it keeps saying connection interrupted every 15 seconds. I haven’t been able to finish a single game yet. All of my other games work fine on multiplayer except this one. Just want to play this game…

    • MICHAEL BROUSSELY

      Frustrated like many others. Connection interruption too many times per game for too many games. No problems with other games except BO3. Figured when beta had a problem, the real deal would have been fixed. I’m wireless now; gonna try hardwire tomorrow.

  • mad cobra

    I just bought x box live so I could play but everytime I start up the game it says disconnected from call of duty servers but I checked my network connection and multiplayer connection and “it all good” so WTF

    • Cant join any server if so i get kick in no under 10secs

  • Wow…

    Stuck with 0-50 matches, will not connect on PC.

    • Rile

      Same here man

      • redhotsonic

        Ditto. Glad it’s not my end that’s gone wrong.

        • Bullsh*t

          Same here can’t even play a game I paid $60 for… WOnderful

  • Aimbot

    How does a game like this come out when the servers suck so bad that you can’t play with your friends or play two games in a row. This is pathetic! I expected better from Treyarch, if this was an EA game I expect them to have crappy servers that’s why I don’t play their games. But Treyarch you should be disappointed in yourselves. With all the money you make off this game and you can’t even have servers that work. I mean I’m not asking for dedicated servers just servers that work. I hope you get this fix and soon or become another game that could have be awesome.

  • Kerry

    Just to let all Black Ops 3 players know, the PSN servers have issues and are down for many right now. Do you have problems?

    • Lloyd Newson

      Yes same here won’t let me go onto servers. Have to play a shitty local game 🙁 🙁 🙁

    • Dairellie

      PSN is down for Black Ops 3, it lets me play for a while, glitches and kicks me out with server issues. Fix it man… Florida

  • Darren

    For xbox one users having issues with black ops 3. First the game disc would not install. Tried everything I read on the net. Took the game back and got a new one. Installed the first try. Then I could not get online because I was stuck at version 33.0.0.0. Watched a you tube video on how to clear the cache on an xbox one. Go to settings. Network.advanced settings.alternate MAC address.then hit clear. Click restart. When I restarted the game..boom..it updated to 33.4.12.2 right away. Hope this helps someone

    • blake

      thank you so much!! I have been trying to figure out how to fix this for like 3 days now!

  • k

    Im still having the same issues as day 1. Cant play multi player or zombies at all, and can only play campaign mode for about 5 minutes at a time before im thrown from the server. definitely would like my money back.

  • Martijn Paap

    I had the same problem on the pc. But I had fixed it. The problem was the antivirus program that I used (bitdefender). The firewall blocked it. when I made an exception for the firewall, the problem was gone. so check you’re firewall on windows and you’re antivirus program.

    • Paul Braza

      error code: A.B.C.D.E.F.-.H.I.J.K.-.-.N.-.-.-.-.-.-.U.V.W.X.Y.Z.

      I get this every time I want to play online! I just bought the game and really want to play with my friends! I can see this is happening to many people and I have tried to contact PS4 and they said it is Activations problem! Activation has no people you can talk to on the phone which is very annoying! Please help all of us and fix this stupid issue!

      • PissedOff

        Same…it’s frustrating and I want my money back

      • Rob

        I have not been able to connect at all PS tells mw its Comcast Comcast tells me its the IP address that the game changed when it was downloading…have not been able to play since I got the game. Cant connect to PSN

  • jj

  • Djam

    Tried everything but my BO3 will not update from version 33.0. My friend across town had no problem

  • soundtuner

    Is this shit for real …. so apperantly this game updates itself from own servers i guess …. WHY WHY WHY just have to wait infront of your starting screen like a moron waiting for the numbers to change AFTER DOWNLOADING THE DIGITAL PACK … WTF 110 bucks to be able to play zombies and cant even get connected curious since the beta ran spotless

  • Derek

    Wont connect to online services or even let me in the main menu to play campaign.

  • Prisoner

    Cant connect to online services.

    • George

      Still cannot connect online

  • Assassinista13

    It won’t let me join online or zombies or let my friends join me on campaign. It keeps acting like it’s connecting and then says error cannot connect to COD servers. My friends, my fiance, everyone else can connect but i can’t!

  • Rob

    Trying to join my friends zombie lobby but keep getting the message “lobby is not joinable” .. i was able to join once last night (11/6) after a few times trying but never after that.

  • Ruqu33n_214

    Online isn’t working…..WTF…..

  • WORKING WORKAROUND:

    PRESS “PLAY LAN” — then once you’re on the LAN screen, press “Play Online”. It will take a couple seconds then once you’re on the Online menu, press Multiplayer.

    Hope I helped.

  • Amer

    I can’t go online , Wtf !!! #Callofduty #Blakops3

    • Gjmaster

      I get errorcode: a.b.c.d.e.f.-.h.i.j.k.-.-.n.-.-.-.-.-.-.u.v.w.x.y.z. It says the black ops 3 server is not available. But thats nonsense my friends are playing bo3. Does anybody know what to do? I have triid almost evrything i even deleted bo3 and re installed. I have the same problem, version 33.4.12.1

    • KraZkillaz

      When you launch BO3 DONT press X to Start.
      Look at the top right corner you will see a number 33.000
      If it shows all 0’s like that you will not connect to the network. Those 0’s should turn into number like 33.191. Once you see those number then Press X to start. if all 0’s then you will not connect.

      • IT DOESN’T WORK MAN, I RECEIVE THE MESSAGE STILL AND I HAVE 33.4.12.2

  • ryan

    38 hours later finally found a trick to. Get online multiplayer servier but no zombie 🙁 ps3

    • Brittny

      How did you manage to get on online ??

  • George

    Can’t get online. ABC error. Have tried all tips and nothing works. Have left on screen with guy for multiples minutes and still doesn’t work.

    • George

      Was able to log on fine earlier but after logged off and came back, now only receive abc error. confirmed 33.9.1.2

    • Lukas

      I have tried all the tips to fix the abc shit,and i still cant fix it,im on pc btw

    • George

      looks like a volume issue. Now at version 33.4.12.2 but still having abc error. Able to get online late last night but down again this morning. Come on!!! Feeling like a waste of $$

  • brian Linton

    Bought this game on xbox 360 and can’t believe it’s not even ready..didn’t even realise there was no campaign mode …gutted

  • Adam

    Still will not connect to any multiplayer games on the 360.. Huge disappointment. For As big as this franchise is, this should not happen. I’ve never came in counter with any problem like this of the countless years playing cod

  • Kevin

    Cant connect to online games. Also cant have a friend join as a guest and play against bots. Are guests not allowed? Cant play split screen?? I’m on 360

    • Sam

      I’m having the same issue, feel like i,ve tried everything

  • Casey

    Been over 12 hours here on the Xbox 360 and still can’t connect to any lobby. It will search for a game for about 25 seconds and then give up and stop searching. If by some odd chance I get into a lobby, map selections aren’t shown and nothing loads.
    Complete disappointment. How could they not have prepared and released a game that crashed on its launch day? I didn’t pay $50.00 and wait in line for this. Outrageous.

    • Justin

      Does that on xbox 1 as well. Found that it helps to back out of lobby and search for a match again. It usually is able to connect after doing this 5-10 times.

  • kyle walter

    still getting the abc error even after restart and my version number is 33.1.9.2

  • kel

    been nearly 4 hours of trying and still can’t connect on xbox one and xbox 360 and of course the kids are unhappy and don’t believe others are also having the same issues :/

  • Disappointed

    I can’t connect on 360…says find 50 servers bit can’t connect. I tried reset my router and evrything until I found this and many people have same issue!
    Disappointed

    • chris

      i been waiting for 11 hours on xbox 360

  • Draeq

    This is what happens when you change it over to a foreign console like playstation. If they kept it the same as boBoor even ghost, this wouldn’t be an issue. As for mine, xbox 360 lobbies are non existent or never load a map choice and the gamer cells that show lobby players is gray. Sometimes its transparent, which is normal. The gray names aren’t? We all pay for our electric, consoles, online membership, internet. But no, we cant play because of who knows what kind of glitch they have to find and fix. Really is sad, advanced warfare has the exact same problem, doesn’t find a game. Wtf!?

  • ryan

    I on ps3 bo3 an can’t connecte online it bean 24 houres Australia

  • hitty

    Cannot join any multiplayer game have to wait soo long to join a game. Even though my NAT type is open as well!! very very disappointing.

      I’m having the same issue on mine. It’s been happening for a few hours now as well

    • ali

    zombies also wont go online
    realy unhappy about this ….

    • shelby

      I have xbox 360. i try to play multiplayer, it says 0-50 matches found and then does nothing

    • ryan

      Hey I on ps3 an connect online have u had an luck

  • Jacob

    If you are getting the ABC Error code close the application and re launch. When you are at the Main Menu wait a while (20-30 seconds) then go on. If this doesn’t work you are at the wrong menu or didn’t wait long enough. It’s worked for me every time.

    • Oliver

      For this to work, does the game need to download a 100%?

  • Mac

    If you are getting the A.B.C error on ps4 close the game go to downloads. Click on the black ops 3 update it will start the game and get you online. Joining people in partys you need to go to there profile and join them that way.

    • Jamiie

      Thank you! That worked

    • Geekerina

      Wow, opening from the update worked! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    • monkfish4321

      What is your NAT type? If its moderate or strict then you need to open it and you can do that by following tutorials on youtube (i had to do this) if its open then ask your friends what theirs is and if theirs is moderate or strict then thats your problem… if not then im not sure whats wrong with it 🙂 Hope this helped

    • Garrett

      Open the game up don’t press x when it prompts to, too right it will say 33.0.0.0 wait on that screen until it changes to 33.1.9.1. This is why you are having issues because the update hasn’t registered. Works perfect afterwards

    Error code A.B.C.D.E.F.-.H.I.J.K.-.-.N.-.-.-.-.-.-.U.

    Can’t connect to online services.

  • Nikolaj

    When i try to connect to the online service it just says that there has been an error and that i cant connect to the Black Ops 3 Servers.

  • zack

    It says “cannot connect to server” and did everything I could to connect but still won’t wont connect to the servers. Why!?!

  • Dan

    Seeing an error “Sorry, an unexpected error occurred” Even the Black Ops 3 status page cannot be displayed.

  • Kevin

    Cant find any games or join friends nor can they join me.

    • Reign

      Same

  • Josh

    Servers freeze and skip the entire time. I feel like I am playing advanced warfare again. If this shit keeps up into the real game I will be looking to get my money back. Ever since AW the servers have been horrible. It makes the game unplayable.

    game running fine. got kicked from party about 2hours ago. Can’t connect back to online services since, just getting message saying cannot connect etc….. anyone else?

      I’m getting the cannot connect to servers error on PS4, restarted my router and console, but still happening.

  • Branden

    Just about to play after a few issues, couldn’t get my redeem code to work, servers seem OK now. Hopefully not too many people go online and slow things down.

  • Lewis

    Other than a cannot install message and the Black Ops 3 beta download being really slow, everything is running now without issues. I guess we can expect some server downtime though while they perform hot fixes over the next few days.

  • Ben

    The beta has only just started, so I haven’t seen any Bo3 maintenance yet and the servers have been really fast for me in the UK.
