Getting stuck on “authentication” when logging into WoW?
A recent problem has popped up with regards to logging into Blizzard‘s World of Warcraft. A lot of Europe based players have given word that they keep getting stuck on the “authentication” part.
Now Blizzard’s support team was very quick to respond in the forums through Prokkar. The issue was quickly repaired but until now there is still an investigation going on regarding the source of the problem. A lot of theories have come up and here’s a quick run down on the most popular ones:
- Hackers
- System bug
- Authentication server issues
- Too many people connecting at the same time
- Goblins sabotaging the system
- A crazy gnome hooking up the server to his new contraption to see if he can get the authentication process to go faster
All in all, it was good that Blizzard responded quickly to the problem. However, they had really better get to the root of the problem to prevent this from happening again since a lot of the player became rather disturbed by the occurrence.
