Authentication Error Out of nowhere, Lots of Officials have lost population

Game was running fine. Then all of a Sudden it booted me. And now most officials are empty. Anyone Else experiencing this? This reminds me of that time this happened a few years ago and nobody could log in for weeks.

Steam?

Yeah.

Seems to have corrected itself. Was able to join the server, the other people online in the server said it booted them and everyone else.

Happy Steam Update day!

Every Tuesday at around 6pm est Steam updates and restarts, booting out players from their servers. This is normal and happens on a lot of games.

Tips to get back in quicker:

• keep trying to rejoin
• don’t back out of the server list and definitely don’t close the client
• sometimes you’ll get in after the first try, sometimes after 20, just keep trying
• have the direct connect handy and try to connect that way instead of manually clicking the server each time
• if you attempt to log in while the update is occurring you won’t be able to get in no matter what you do, wait and try in 15-20 minutes

Seems like every time i do a purge something breaks either in my house or in the game.

Tried during a purge like three times today

1st time I get a random power cut
Second time Golems destroy the pathway forcing me to spend an hour resetting and rebuilding
Third time I get the authentification boot during a purge and can’t connect. And the thrall camp despawned by the time i can get back in
4th Time. Purge boss appears and just before it ends it says enemies can’t find a way to the coffer. (Because i have a bunch of enemies Stuck inside foundations)

I can’t do a single purge. This broken buggy game
