Escape From Tarkov players are currently facing some serious game issues and problems, such as error 213, inability to open the game, and error 103003, which indicates a problem connecting to the auth server. EFT fans are unable to log in, progress past the client, or connect to the server in any way to start the game. Do not worry; this isn't a bug but downtime and maintenance related to the huge 0.14 update that was recently released in EFT. Here's a possible explanation and solution for all of these errors.
Is Escape From Tarkov Down?
Currently, EFT is experiencing downtime due to issues with the authentication servers, and the game's website is also under maintenance. All account functionality is currently unavailable until the developers resolve the issues. Do not panic, and do NOT follow any suggestions on Reddit or other forums. The EFT team is working on resolving the problems, and the game will be fixed and running soon.

- Do not log out or change your EFT password.
- Do not make any regedit changes, as this is not an issue with your system.
