Starforce ProActive servers down

[tommytoad]

Why is there not any information about this? Now i cant activate my three, bought, products and i have no idea when its gonna work again.

 

If you are going to use this DRM stuff, please provide information to your users when something is not working.

 

So, any word on when this is fixed?

[Eddie]

No problem activating here.

[rottweil13]

I can't activate either, I just bought Black Shark 1 and Black Shark 2 upgrade and neither one will activate through the DCS server or through StarForce. I was hoping to play this sim today but they've been down all morning.

[tommytoad]

So you can access https://proactive.star-force.com/2.0/activate.php or https://proactive.star-force.com/ ?

 

Edit: been trying for three hours now, the website is not up and the in-game activation has the same problem with timeout.

[kbnd]

Same for me:

"Failure reason: Unable to connect to the activation server. Check your Internet connection and try again." and the starforce website is down too.

So you can access https://proactive.star-force.com/2.0/activate.php or https://proactive.star-force.com/ ?

Both links work fine here, and I deactivated all my DCS products and erased the registry entries and all activated again without any problem.

Edit: I can now access the starforce servers again. Must have been a problem with the routing somewhere.

I just bought a new motherboard and CPU so before installing I deactivated all three DCS products I currently own (Ka-50, A-10C, and P-51) which worked fine about 4 days ago. Now I am finished with the installation and now I am also unable to activate any of my three licenses. The website is also unreachable. And plain star-force.com just displays a blank page.

 

This really needs to be looked into.

[cichlidfan]

I also ran into this problem, with activation on a second machine, two nights ago but did not pursue it further. At the moment I cannot reach star-force either.

[Devrim]

So you can access https://proactive.star-force.com/2.0/activate.php or https://proactive.star-force.com/ ?

 

Edit: been trying for three hours now, the website is not up and the in-game activation has the same problem with timeout.

 

Same! I can't access!.

[Torri]

Same problem here.

Great site btw. (downforeveryoneorjustme)

[doright]

Same problem. Does the E-mail option work?

[KillerSam]

Same problem. Does the E-mail option work?

 

I sent an email a few hours ago, no reply as of yet.

[Wolf Rider]

nah, its playing silly buggers... both IE and Firefox

I knew there was a technically correct term for the problem. Thanks! :D

[dores893]

Yeah, I just spent the better part of the evening reading and memorizing Ka-50 startup procedures and navigation and now I can't active my product. Servers unreachable. Good lord.

[dores893]

This post started 6 hours ago. I could accept maybe they were rebooting servers for an hour max, but six hours? Are they building a new server piece by piece? Grandma was slow but she was old.

[MAThrasher]

I'm glad it is not just me having a problem.....

[dores893]

Must be down for the count. I'll try again tomorrow.

[Maulkin]

Has anyone else raised a support ticket for this besides me? The first post to this thread was Feb 22nd and I am surprised this has gone on for so long.

If it is/was the same problem, it has not been continuous or at least the effect may not have been as widespread. At the time of that post, I was able to connect to Starforce's site.

[BreeOge]

Same here, all day I have been trying to activate LO3 but NO, the servers are not up to activate. This is bull crap, I feel we all need to be compensated for this problem. Emails, Website, Activation nothing works. When you buy a game you expect you could at least activate it at a bare min.

[PhilH930]

Well that's a complete buzzkill. Spent hours reading and watching videos on A10C, downloaded and installed, and can't activate!
