Speaking to Eurogamer, publisher Ubisoft confirmed that the DRM server issues were being worked on, but that the problem wasn’t “completely resolves”.
”Settlers 7 players have encountered difficulties playing the game over the (Easter) holiday weekend due to issues with servers that do matchmaking in multiplayer mode and that keep track of profiles, campaign progression and stats in both solo and multi modes,” they said.
”Our technical teams have made progress but we are not yet able to say that the issue is completely resolved.”
Ubisoft added that they would make further announcements in The Settlers 7 forum.
