The Day Before server status

The Day Before servers are working but overloaded. Due to the sheer amount of players trying to access the game, server stability and capacity issues should be expected.

Fntastic has tweeted “Overload on North American servers. The servers are working. Fills up too quickly.” So, it looks like they’re not currently taking any action to add more server capacity at this time. Unfortunately, that means we’ve just got to wait and keep trying to access the game. Fntastic did issue a patch for the game which would hide servers that are full, but so far we’ve not had any success in joining those either.

To fix server stability or capacity issues, the simple answer is to wait. It’s exciting to jump into a brand new IP, especially one that’s been as hyped up as this has, but if you’ve passed The Day Before release time and you’re still facing issues, bookmark this page as we’ll update with error codes and their solutions, plus any announcements from Fntastic around server-side problems and how to fix them.
