Connection Failed! Cannot Connect to EA Servers

[scottiemac]

Day 3 of owning the game and I'm still not able to connect to the EA Servers. The option to login with my EA account and use my online pass never even pops up in game. I'm not sure if it's just an issue with NCAA 12, but I put NCAA 11 back in and logged into the servers with no issue.

Anyone else having these issues?

I tried signing in for the first time last night and had the same issue.

Managed fine every single day.

Should also add this is for Xbox360. Tried to contact EA Customer Service and they've recommended I contact my ISP. Can't understand why that would be necessary if my connection is fine and is good enough to access NCAA 11 servers and FIFA servers.

I had this issue with Tiger 12. Had to reset my router to fix it. How the two are connected i have no idea, but it worked. Maybe a coincidence, but it won't hurt to try.

Re: Connection Failed! Cannot Connect to EA Servers

Thanks for the tip on the router. I tried the reset, but no luck. Tried clearing my xbox cache as well. No dice. EA recommended that i do the 11/15/2005 date trick - no luck. So confused. Not good. Game is not worth having if I can't access online dynasty and rosters.

Re: Connection Failed! Cannot Connect to EA Servers

I have been unable to even sign in to my PSN account....

Getting error code 80710A06, which I believe is the same error that happened when servers were down back in April.

Can anyone please help me out with what may be going on here?

Re: Connection Failed! Cannot Connect to EA Servers

ive been having the same problem and have done all the resetting of routers and time settings, etc. Then i decided to try to connect to EA with a different account. I had an xbox live account thats just silver membership AND IT CONNECTED WITHOUT A PROBLEM!

But yet my main, gold account remains unable to connect to ea so i refuse to start my dynasty until i figure this out.

anyone have any clue why one account worked and the other didnt?

I got the online pass thru on day 1, but last night and all day today, I've been having difficulty with it. If I don't remember to hit the x button when it first tries to connect to the servers, it will just sit on the loading screen while that Ben Haumiller thing about the Making of NCAA 12 and the ESPN Radio updates play intermittently.

If I try to connect online later, or go to roster share and connect that way, the same thing happens, at the point where it says something like "Getting Online Tuning Updates"

I'm on PS3, and I have tried resetting my router.

I've got the same problem. I can't connect to the EA servers with my main account, but my other accounts can just fine. Cleared my cache and that did nothing. Not sure what to do now other than bitch to EA about it.

Have you tried changing your time zone?

Have you tried changing your time zone?

Yeah this is the issue, reset your console to 1/1/1970 and restart it, then have it auto update the date and time and it should resolve it. I had this issue last year and that fixed it for me.

Ps3 wont let me go past year 2000. Was this tip for xbox? Is it any different for Ps3?

Mine was 360 but I've heard that ps3 is same issue. Try it with the earliest date you can and then turn it off, back on, update time/date automatically and then turn off, back on and reconnect and see if that fixes you up......

Re: Connection Failed! Cannot Connect to EA Servers

I've had this issue. I attributed it to the ****ty *** internet connection I have.

I'll go try this changing the date to as early as it will let me thing, then I'll report back. PS3, btw.

EDIT: No go. Changed the date back to 1/1/2000 and it still wouldn't log me in.
