Arma Reforger is a game that relies quite heavily on a connection to the internet. Games are hosted on the developer’s servers for hundreds of players to battle it out in. While there is a single player element to it, the core of Arma Reforger is online, and it suffers when there’s no connection. This guide explains how to check if Arma Reforger’s servers are down and details the latest known maintenance schedule.
May 21, 2022 player reduction
Bohemia Interactive put out a statement regarding server issues. It seems as though the main problem with players not being able to get into games is caused by player numbers. This is why the player numbers per match have been limited to 16 on Xbox and 64 on Steam. This will be changed back to allow for 100+ players on Everon once the server issues have been identified and fixed. If you are having trouble getting into a game, this is probably the reason.
How to check if Arma Reforger servers are down
At the time of writing, there’s no server page for Arma Reforger, so you can’t check if the game’s servers are online on any website. However, you can use the next best thing to check for any issues. The official Arma Twitter account will post about any upcoming maintenance or server downtime. This is the best way to check if the game’s servers are really down or if there’s an issue on your end.
Can’t connect to server error
Arma Reforger is an early access game both on PC and Xbox. As such, there are bugs and glitches that can crop up to ruin your day, for example, the “Server Error, connection has failed” error. You can try various fixes for these errors, but most of the time, turning your device off and on again will fix the problem. If you can’t connect to the servers after multiple restarts, and it doesn’t look like anything wrong is reported on Twitter, you should file a ticket through the official website. The developer will then register this, and it will address whatever is going on as soon as it can.
