On PC.

Been getting this for over 2.5 hours now. First happened after I crashed to desktop. My main on that account is level 457. I want to play please. Tried repairing, tried reinstalling, google is useless, bethesda help is useless. Please help.

I can login on my mule account with no issues.

EDIT: If you want background, I'm off work with injury. Have been since August. 76 is all I enjoy in my life right now, why would I ever do anything that would even remotely result in a ban. I'm nearly 900 hours into 1 character. I refuse to believe I've been banned.

EDIT 2: Can't login to my alt account now. The longer this goes on the longer I feel there might be authentication issues.

Hello,

Players who receive the “Login failed. This Account is not Authorized. [4:8:2000]” message when attempting to log into Fallout 76 are using an account that may have been suspended by our Customer Support team, and should check the email address associated with that account for a message from us.

Those who have been suspended this way were identified as having acquired over 100,000 of one or more rare in-game items within 30 days of play through duplication exploits. These accounts have been suspended from Fallout 76 until this issue is fixed in a future patch. Once a fix is live, we will reactivate these accounts and notify the owners that they can access the game again, but any further violations of the Terms of Service or Code of Conduct will result in a permanent account closure.

The items that resulted in these account actions were designed to be rare in-game, and we’re confident that players who acquired them in these massive quantities did not obtain them using legitimate means. Those who are playing the game normally, even if they craft a lot of items, can rest assured that we will not deactivate or suspend their accounts for legitimate play.

If you think you are experiencing an exploit in your gameplay experience – stop using it immediately and let our Support team know in a ticket.

If you feel you have experienced an issue regarding another player, including observing them using an exploit, we encourage you let our support team know by submitting a ticket here.

Thank you
