For most players it started happening today and on all Brink servers! WTF?

The problem still exists on Steam, no one can play Brink online without disconnect error sooner or later!
Message: ‘Disconnected - Could not authenticate all peers’

It happened after the last steam client update from 8 Jan 2014.

Help again, we can’t play online matches in Brink (PC - steam) now because some changes in latest steam client update from 8 jan 2014. !!!
We have a group about 300 people (skilled players) which play Brink together every day on multiplayer servers.

This was the reply recieved from Steam suport regarding this matter :

  • ‘Support for this title is provided by the original developer or publisher. Please refer to the following article for more information on contacting the support team for this title…’

Thanks for the heads-up. Let me go away and get this investigated.

Thanks, lot of Brink players waiting to be re-play multiplayer. Repeat, currently no one can play online!
We only determine - when someone raise their own ‘listen server’ it can work but with high ping and other problems. It is a real disaster for relative small Brink PC community.

Quick update - I’ve let Bethesda know about this (they own the game) and they’re looking into this.

Will let you know once there’s news.

Update! This appears to be an issue with Steam. The Valve guys think they know what’s causing this and are working on a fix.

Just had a go on a server and this looks like it’s been fixed. Let us know if you’re still having problems staying connected.

Thank you for your assistance, for now everything is working well…

Wait, server browser is up and running again? I uninstalled the game the other day because of this. I might reinstall it now, Is this issue definitely fixed?
