Error: Couldn't connect. Go online to download episodes (Reported to the Studio)

Problem fixed for CC Soda at level 3681...

Just checked. Problem fixed. Can load 3681 and beyond. Thanks.

@Carmosina, can of paint at 3610 is normal. Under construction. Should have new levels tomorrow (Friday)...

Thanks for the heads up guys 👍

Ii seems that we have a slight technical issue with our game which is unfortunately impacting your game play.

Rest assured however that our developers are already aware of this and are working hard to find a resolution as quickly as possible.

Please note that until this is fixed you will probably still encounter the same issue if you continue playing the game.

Apologies for the inconvenience caused and thanks for your patience while we look into this 😉

I have the same issue. Several days ago I paid $3.99 for a package of boosters for an hour and then I could not get into the new levels at 3581. I have sent a few messages about this but you all are being very quiet. I have tried this on chrome and a few others. I have no other problems with other games. I have cleared the cache and such. Help

Thank you @Elsa for helping out here 😉

 can no longer play, it comes up: connection failed! Connect to download episodes! Has been like this for a few days now and is no longer able to play, where is the error?

Sig

Yea, you'd think these A-Holes would at least respond. They'll take your money but not respond or try to fix it. A-Holes!!

This is not good enough. What can I do?

Candy Crush Soda, the above error message appears when trying to load and play the new episode starting level 3581. Uninstall and reinstall app (Facebook, Win7) and clearing cache doesn't help. Re-playing older levels (3580 etc) OK. Pls fix...

I passed level 3581 on my phone. In Facebook, my icon moved to level 3582. But I still can't load level 3581 and level 3582 (same error: can't connect...), even though I can load level 3580. So this is definitely a bug with Facebook for the new episodes (3581-3595) added last Friday. Pls fix!!

Sig

Still no response. WTH!!

Since it's working on the phones and tablets I think one of the developers forgot to connect the pc version. Their quality control is going down hill faster and faster.

Verbist

I'm having the same problem with the same level.
Is it a general problem or does it need an individual fix?

Sig

Same thing with me, "Couldn't connect. Go online to download episodes" since Friday. C'mon King, I'm stuck inside this weekend sick and can't play, just old levels. Using Mac laptop.

Ed_Shirley

I can't get level 3581 to load. It says I need to go online to download episodes. I'm obviously online, so I'm not sure why it won't load. PLEASE HELP!!!!

I keep getting ‘there was a connection error please try again in a bit”
this keeps happening everytime I try to log in to my account via the game app.

Tracilla

Same here! For both Candy Crush Soda and Saga, no reply from Customer Support!

No point in playing as no daily bonuses or progress made!

Wonder how how much money they are losing!!

I am having the same issue. Keeps returning a login error so I can’t save my progress.

Same here....for all of the King games I play.

Hi there,
for me the same. Game has no connection to the internet, No friends and no Race.
By the way : the games from King are the only apps with nonconnection to the internet.
í‘m not able to save the game on my king account. When i try to login got „unkonwn connection error“.
Is there anyone from support team reading in this community ?????
i forgot : same problems with Candy Crush Saga.

Hi guys, I think we might have a glitch going on and I am starting to create a list so that I can notify the community manager when he gets in tomorrow. I will add this thread to the list but can you please try to do some troubleshooting while waiting to see if it fixes the problem. Clear the history, make sure that you have the most recent version of the game which was updated yesterday. It is now at 1.135.8. Then click on one of the links below to complete the troubleshooting.

I just found a message where someone had the same issue and they had to uninstall the game and reinstall it again. Unfortunately if you do that then you will lose whatever lives and boosters that you have if you are on a mobile device. Here is the link and the choice is yours if you want to try it:

Thanks very much elsa,
have tried everything.
in deed reinstalling the game without being sure having a good backup is no option.

Someone just updated me saying that she is now able to get into the game. Please try again.

Sorry - but still no connection...

! Connection error. Try it again shortly.

I have sent a message to the community manager so he should see it when he is back in the office.

Ditto - candy crush saga and farm heroes saga are giving me the same message but blossom blast works fine... ?

I opened a support ticket,got some quick responses but none of the tips worked for me. So i followed the last advice from support and reinstalled Saga and Soda. But before that i checked the backup with browser and another mobile device.

support gave me 10 of each boosters for my collected free - very ervy kind.

i was was very satisfied in communication with support.

This happens to me when I try to logon with email address. I am still having trouble with "The Bubblegum Troll is causing problems in your game. Try again soon." One suggestion was to logon with my email, save the game and that would get rid of the Troll message. Well, I can't even try it since I get the connection message. Now I just opened the game and all 39 of the gold bars I had are gone. I am ready to trash soda saga and find a new game to play. This used to work just fine on my Android phone but no more. Really lousy technical support. Thanks to all the Forum members and their suggestions, but this just seems like a lost cause.

Hi @3catmama you should never lose your gold bars. I am going to ask you to please get your user ID # by following the steps on here: https://community.king.com/en/candy-crush-saga/discussion/247069/what-is-my-user-id-and-where-can-i-find-it#latest

Write me back once you have it, you don't have to post it here but I need to know that you have it. I will then tag the community manager and he can go into your account to see what happened to your gold bars.

This is still a problem and I can’t back the game up to uninstall because of the connection error. It’s so frustrating!

Hi guys, I am going to tag @Xarly who is the community manager for this game. There are several issues that you are reporting but no one has mentioned where they are playing the game - mobile or computer? Facebook or the Kingdom? Please give me more information so that when the manager comes here he has more information to work with.

Playing on iPad. Game still works offline but can’t collect rewards, join races or spin daily wheel etc. Affecting CC, CC soda and CC jelly all in diff ways. Not affecting mobile

@kDizzle are you trying to login with Facebook or the Kingdom? I am also going to tag @Cezdiamond who is the community manager for Candy Crush Saga if you can't get it to that game too.

No login via email. I don’t use FB.
