    I'm on Android (Galaxy S4). Slice 5 of Simulator Day 3 was fine, but am getting the error on DDQ and Venom Bomb. Tried at least an app restart, about to try rebooting the whole phone too.

    Edit:Venom Bomb eventually came up around 9am, still waiting on DDQ.

    It seems to be working for me now, but we've all lost a lot of time unfortunately.

    Yes, same problem for DDQ on iPad.

    UPDATE--Somebody suggested to play the other modes and it will be fixed. One fight in versus did the trick.

    I did the entry node (main simulator node w/doom/chulk/2cap) and it unlocked for me. Maybe this will work for the rest of you? Good luck.

    Same here cannot access sim 3. I tried playing the event node but it did not unlock it for me. Slice 5 on Steam. I will be very, very unhappy if this prevents me from getting my Gwenpool cover and all of that iso......

    Waited 2 hours last night for Sim sub 3 and couldnt get in. Got up to this morning and sub 3 was available but now DDQ has same issue. I missed out on my prime playing time last night and it WILL mean I wont hit max progression, which after slogging through the first 2 subs of Sim really, really Sucks!!!!!

    Contacted support last night, waiting to see what they say....

    Happening on both Android and iOs

    UPDATE: got a response from support around 5:30pm Central time, but it was only asking for more info about the issue

    Cant play my deadpool daily because it's stuck accessing shield servers. Bleh!
  • It's so annoying. The event has said accessing shield servers since last night. And even the daily Deadpool challenge is giving me that error message. Cant play or do anything.

    I've had the slice 5 simulator error which seemed to correct itself in a few hours. I've had the Venom Bomb and DDQ errors since they went "active". I've had the app completely closed for several hours and I have still have the Accessing Shield Servers for both events. Playing nodes in Simulator and BFF did not fix them.

    iPhone 5S, iOS 10.02
  • Deadpools Daily has been accessing servers for 7 hours since I first tried to open it. I did some Pvp and played some simulator hoping it would open. That was 7 hours ago. Rebooting the app has no affect. On android.

    My Android account finally got into Simulator 3 after a couple of hours. Managed top 20, which was a pleasant surprise. DDQ got the Spinning Rings Of Server Death when I got up this morning, but somehow fixed itself.

    Now my Steam account has spinning rings on Venom Bomb and DDQ, DDQ has another 3 hours 15 minutes to go, but I'm holding out no hope of it spontaneously working. That account's Devil Dinosaur isn't great, but not even having a chance at the legendary token sucks mightily.

    I kind of have a theory as to what's going on. I don't think that it's caused by loading up the event details, it's the calculation of scaling for the event. I'm guessing some dodgy code and deadlocks on the database while fetching "some performance data". As such, it doesn't matter how often you kill the application, if it can't do dirty reads it will just wait patiently, and the connection timeout is set to something like timeout.infinite, or whatever the equivalent is in, well, whatever language they happen to be using.

    I'm sure that we'll have a full explanation, in the fullness of time.

    :edit: Venom Bomb just freed itself. Not that I care about that event...
    :edit2: Just over 2 hours to go, I checked and DDQ is there. Yippee. icon_rolleyes.gif
