After the 11/12 update installed I've been unable to get into Lost Islands because of that message, Retry is the only option and isn't working. I've restarted my iPad, removed and reinstalled the game several times with no luck. All other apps are able to communicate as normal. Anyone here have any advice? Activision isn't currently open so thought I'd check here in the meantime.

Game just forced me to update...now getting the following when trying to start it:

Internet Connection Required

Kaos has been up to no good again and has blocked you from accessing the internet. Please check your connection and retry downloading the latest content.


-LI update ran to success.
-iPod connects fine to the internet using Safari (currently connected to my job network..shouldn't matter)
-Rebooted my machine to no avail.

This really STINKS!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm on an iPod Touch 4, so can't upgrade to iOS 7...I'm hoping I didn't get "fazed out"!

I'm on an iPad 4 so it's not likely hardware deprication. Once they get this fixed I'm guessing you'll be fine.

Getting the same message here, telling me that there is no internet connection. All other apps work fine.

@jorgito2001
I doubt that it is because you don't have iOS 7. It doesn't work on iOS 7, too. Well, at least for me it doesn't.

I'm just concerned that the message even exists. There's a chance it only popped up for those who were in the middle of updating when Activate went down. But it sounds frighteningly like the game is changing to a connection required all the time. Maybe I'm just being paranoid. I'd love official confirmation of which case it is.

Activate service has been restored. You may need to exit and return to the app for connectivity to return.

Thank-you. I play during loooong car trips a lot. It's pretty much the only game I play doesn't need a connection.

Thanks from me to! I play through a tethered phone hotspot and so I play offline a lot to save on data.
That's rural living for you.
