Popular Post PatexM Posted August 8, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 8, 2022 Hi all, just wanted to drop a forum post about the server connection problems people are experiencing in AC Unity. I had tried everything in my router, and nothing solved the problem (And I am a Network Engineer ). The solution: Unbind your PSN profile link from Ubisoft Connect. Then restart AC Unity, when continuing your game, you will get a new prompt asking you to bind your Uplay account with PSN, select NO. Link to Ubisoft Connect (U play) portal: https://account.ubisoft.com/en-GB/account-information Now you can load into AC Unity and successfully play the co-op missions for the achievements. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you need to do this everytime this problem occurs? Or is it just a 1 time thing to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakD_710 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Just tried doing this and it did not work sadly. Guess ill try again over the course of the week. Can't even connect to the online for this game as off now which does suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still couldn't manage to connect to the online part. Okay so figured I would try again before going to bed. This time I switched from Ethernet to wifi and it surprisingly worked. Not sure why but at least I am able to access the online now. Edited September 12, 2022 by jakD_710 New knowledge obtained Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZKVJK Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I can confirm the unlink from ubisoft connect/play works. I unlinked it and I was able to invite my friend for the trophies and he didn't have to unlink it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmosesltd Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 This is hit or miss for me... I have to unlink and relink and unlink again for this to work... UBIsoft and their Uplay requirements for games are really annoying. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaunchpadMcDuck Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Following up, I did the unlink/relink yesterday and nothing changed except that it took a little longer for the error message to come up. Seeing how the only trophies I have left are for the multiplayer revives and kills, is this plat going to be obtainable if majority of people can't even connect to their servers? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempestad_cl Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 I had to do it twice, but it worked. Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vorfied Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 (edited) Thanks. Unlinking my account seemed to work but it still took a couple resets before the game actually connected to the servers. Edited November 9, 2022 by Vorfied 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmileSlice Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 (edited) Just adding my own experience for reference. I’m using wifi on a standard PS4, if that makes any difference? Unlinking UPlay definitely works for me, as I see the multiplayer options come back. However, the moment I relink my UPlay account, it brings back the error messages. I haven’t completed any of the coop trophies with friends yet, as I was only messing around with this the other day. No idea why this is so buggy in this particular game? I’ve never run into any connection issues with other Ubisoft games before.

big_jim_1979 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 (edited) Hi. Just to also confirm my experience that when I unlinked I could do co-op again. I had done one trophy a couple of weeks back whilst linked but done the other one now unlinked and TBF was only doing co-op to get platinum. At least it's a solution to the trophy problem, if not the underlying issue. The hardest part was finding someone to match with in the co-op missions as the game is now so old Edited November 9, 2022 by big_jim_1979 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xBugra-_- Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 This actually worked. Thank you! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rueknight Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 So I did the unlink and got the same error. I then read a bit and it talked about NAT types. I've had no issues with Assassin's Creed games this year, don't think it's that. Just to be sure I resetup my internet connection on my ps4. I changed none of my settings and that fixed the problem. Thought I would drop this here to be helpful. Unlink and reset your network settings on ps4 worked for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iSisko87 Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 I'm unable to connect from PS5, even with the procedure, I resolved playing through streaming of the PS Plus version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerostn Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Hello people another work around for those that the uplay unlink didn't work just start a blue (companion miasion) and you will be connected to ubisoft servers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoop_doug213 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 So I'm trying to do this with a mate of mine and I have been trying the unlink for roughly an hour now and it's still not working and when I tried the companion mission it definitely did work.

Vip3r92_ Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Trying this with a friend of mine for 2 days now. Unlinking Uplay and reconnecting Uplay, did that several times, nothing happens. Even made a Club we both joined and we are able to sent eachother invites, but after inviting nothing happens. After 1 minute we get a pop-up that the connection failed. We are both running PS5 system with NAT on Type 2. Anybody any advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinallyGaming_ Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 I was able to get it working somehow. On my main account, I started a coop mission once I was inside the coop mission, I invited my secondary account on the ps4 and a bit later got a message on main account saying secondary account had joined. I unlinked both and invited while in open map and it kept saying could not join before. After I started the mission solo, I was able to get the invite working. NAT type 2. PS5,PS4. Hope that helps.

iansm3 Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) it's not working for me. just so I'm clear, is the sequence: 1. unlink accounts on the website 2. start the game. when prompted to link, select "No". 3. re-link accounts via the website 4. restart the game again? I've tried various combinations of this with zero success. I have also reset the PS4 wifi (twice, switching to 5G and back) and checked my NAT type, which is Type 2. I've done port forwarding as suggested on Ubisoft's page for that in AC Unity. Followed three different guides to finally figure it out on my wifi router and it didn't work. the only difference is that it now takes longer to try and fail establishing the connection to the Ubisoft servers. EDIT: long story short: you're supposed to unlink the accounts through the browser, but I took that to mean you had to re-link them there too. What you actually have to do is not manually relink them at all. Just start the game, select "no" when asked to relink when selecting "Continue" from the main menu, and the game automatically figures it out when your game is loaded. anyways, anyone want to play co-op? my username is my PSN.

TheRetroManiac Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 This worked for me and i self boosted everything, so thank you for the fix as Ubisoft would not be fixing it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
