A Discord server down error message is impacting all users. Attempting to log into Discord across all platforms, including the PS5, results in an infinite loading screen with text that reads “Elevated Latency and Errors.” Earlier, this was causing a 500 internal error as well. Either way, this is making it impossible for people to reach any server on the service, which is an issue that has caught the platform unaware. Here’s what the “Elevated Latency and Errors” mean and when a potential fix could be coming down the pipeline for Discord.
When will the Discord server down error be fixed?
If you’re seeing the “Elevated Latency and Errors” message, this means that Discord is experiencing a delay in its network communication. The popular platform is investigating issues on why it’s taking an unusual amount of time for its servers to function properly.
According to the latest info on the official Discord Status website, this issue is an “unresolved incident” at the time of writing. This may be related to latency and errors that occurred earlier this month. On November 2, Discord was investigating issues with increased API latency that has since been resolved. And on November 3, they also had increased API errors that has also apparently resolved.
Checking the official Discord Support Twitter account, the company has acknowledged the issue and is currently investigating the problem. It’s unclear when the service will be made available again, but you can check the status page until the team figures out what has gone wrong. Reportedly, the issue is an underlying one that has impacted the authentication process of Discord, and the proper teams have already been deployed to respond to the problem.
Fortunately, this has nothing to do with connection issues with your router or computer. Instead, you just need to wait for Discord to fix the problem on its end. You may just have to touch grass for a hour or two.
