Update On Connection Issues
05/04/14 at 19:39:15
 
Lol I know no one really cares, but I am very interested to get to the bottom of my account failing to connect. Update… As I posted, I am only able to get on via the Quick Match option in the main menu, selecting the "Online" option to view a list of rooms/games automatically boots me to the main menu with a message of "unable to communicate with servers yada yada connect using online capabilities". So I had to selected quick match, and it created room for me.
It was TDM and DaRuler, Willamboy, and Silent N Deadly were in it with me so if they could see the results and let me know if mine even registers"since i got booted before anything showed up" that would be great. So the game runs great, smooth, and no lagging…but the minute it ends, and the results should have popped up I get booted back to the main menu with the same "Unable to Communicate" message. So now I know my account/gamertag can play a game, its the servers that are screwing me over. Whatever personal account info I have/had saved to the servers i.e records, skins, and unlocks are the problem everytime my account tries to access that information it gets booted and the game room option never displays. So my server data must be corrupted or god knows what. Again if anyone has a fix for this problem, or is having similar issues please respond. Thanks

I'm experiencing the same issues, but the trouble didn't start for me until yesterday. It seems like it has expanded to a large number of players within the last 24 hours, since a lot of players are reporting it now. There's also a similar thread posted on the forums at Twisted Clans.

I've had the same issue since friday the 16th. Last time I played was Tuesday the 13th, no problem.

Just like people at Twisted Clans, I downloaded skins (back in 2012). But I haven't used them in a long time.

So just for that reason I can no longer play. Man that sucks.

Wow it is spreading, thanks for letting me know and it doesn't look like a fix is in order at all since all the others with the issue on that forums were not jumping for joy Sad I created an alt account, but this bug is a real pain. It might very well have to do with the skins since my alt account has no trouble, and obviously no skins to download…Come on sony lets get some maintenance for the maintenance!

I'm in the same situation as Scrappy. The issue that affected everyone with custom skins in late May did resolve itself, and fixed the issues for me as well for about a week. Then, I decided I wanted to make a (third) attempt at getting the platinum trophy, which requires deleting the TM data on your console due to glitches with the online trophies. After doing so, the custom skins issue reemerged on all of my accounts with custom skins, and they still remain glitched months later.

For anyone who still experiences this issue, I believe it is attributed to having custom skins linked to your PSN ID, but not having the data locally stored on your console. As it stands, I see no way to correct it since players have been unable to download activated skins to their consoles since the issue in late May, nor deactivate them since the TM website went offline. I'm pretty sure deleting my game data was what did me in. I also believe that if you tried to use your PSN ID on a new PS3 console, you'd experience the same issue, since you won't have your skin data locally stored.

If you have yet to get the online trophies, and still intend to with an account that has custom skins linked to it, your only option will be to do so using games hosted in quick match. Thankfully, quick match is broken in such a way it will force you to host all of your own lobbies, so you won't get your stat progress glitched by joining another host's lobby. Otherwise, using an fresh PSN ID will resolve the issue since there will be no skins associated to it. It's a pain to start from scratch, specifically if you aren't a veteran and don't earn a lot of XP per match, but most of the fundamental upgrades are available to be unlocked in the first tier.

I still want to get the online trophies but I don't play online much. I do want to get the platinum trophy but I'm not that skilled when it comes to hard mode.
