Error: Failed to join any instances

i am also failing to connect to instance
and it is only happening on sarn slums i have had it happen before and it allway happens on my newest way point so i can't do any more in the game

I am getting this too, right now.

Can't even get to the forest encampment on login now. Was working fine yesterday.

Still ongoing for me.

More often than not I'm being returned to the login screen on attempting to change zones, (via WP)'s.

problem is still ongoing. making the game unplayable

Me and all my friends still failed since yesterday, can't move out of Forest Encampment.

Yesterday, after not playing for a week, I started up PoE and it downloaded/applied the new patch. Since then, I've been unable to enter some instances. First i had problems with The Lower Prison, but after four attempts to get into the instance (each ending with me being kicked to the log-in screen), I was able to get through. Everything was fine until I got to The Ship Graveyard, which I similarly could not get into. I tried four or five times yesterday and was booted to the log-in screen each time. I thought the problem would go away in 24 hours so I tried again today. I've tried about seven times on all the different servers and I can not get into The Ship Graveyard from its entrance on the previous map. Additionally, sometimes I can not even log in after the character connection screen without getting booted to log-in with the message "Failed to connect to instance." Game is currently unplayable; I can not progress, and if I level up anymore before getting further in the game - then I'll be too over-level for the next sections and will screw up my loot drops.

me too failed to connect o any instances :(

me too, first i cant go into solaris templae map (the other map worked), now i cant go into laboratory

This game is now totally unplayable to me. I cant join any instance, and I am stuck in town infinitely.
