      Most players are now able to use the FAF service again after security was significantly strengthened. However, the DDoS attack is still ongoing, and it's possible that new attack techniques are being tested, which may occasionally affect our services.

      The situation is currently under monitoring.


      Edit: Players who are using a Coturn server to connect to other players are encountering some connection issues recently. A permanent solution is in the works.

      As for the matchmaking penalty for unsuccessful connections, it's only temporary and you can try again later.


      Edit2: The fastest way to stay up to date is by following the announcement channel on Discord

        A new version of the FAF client has been released - if you have issues with the automatic updating of the client, you can download the new version here:
        https://github.com/FAForever/downlords-faf-client/releases

        The latest release (as of posting) is v2023.11.2.

        Assuming you have windows, then download the faf_windows-x64_[version reference].exe file and run this.

        Since FAF doesn't have the money to pay microsoft a fee to 'recognise' the FAF exe, windows will likely come up with the below warning message - clicking more info should allow you to run the exe. For those with concerns, this is an open source project with the code published on Github, which you are welcome to inspect.
