Maybe. Bought the game and started playing on Monday when it worked just fine, but come Tuesday and Wednesday I can't get on at all. This is ridiculous.

**UPDATE**

I have absolutely no idea what just happened, I didn't make ANY adjustments and just tried to get on again and it worked without any problems.....

Yes... the same happened to me. I have been playing fine for the last 3 months then I received the "Failed to initialize...etc..etc" message for yesterday - all day. I tried opening up ports, stopping firewalls, anti virus, rebooting, updating the latest patch, updating PunkBuster, you name it - I tried it - with the exception of re-installing RB6V2. Today - I successfully logged in. Weird....

Looking at the trends of previous posts - I think the UBI servers and/or network were having issues or down for a specific region. Too much of a coincident for these users at the same time to have the same issue on the same game.

An occasional outage (especially a few days after a Steam promotion for the game) is bad enough, especially a 24+ hour one, but what's ridiculous is the lack of any status info. A lot of people could have saved a lot of time if there was a status page somewhere saying "Sorry, our servers are down. We're working on it. Check back later."
