DoW2 Retribution MP Connection Issues

[Alty]

Heya,

Just wondered if anyone is aware of any downtime or connection issues with the Multiplayer side of DoW2 Retribution? I haven't been able to connect to a game for the last day or so now and even on the title menu in the bottom left of the screen it doesn't show any other online members in the chat channels.

Is anyone else having any multiplayer connection issues at the moment?

Thanks.

Found the following on Steam Forums just now but would this affect DoW2 Retribution?

NOTICE: Game Server Downtime
From August 22nd to September 8th, European game servers hosted by Valve (L4D/L4D2/TF2/on Xbox and PC) will be offline.

The downtime will only pertain to official Valve servers, leaving the availability of independent clan servers unaffected. Additionally, it will be possible to join official Valve servers from other parts of the world; however, there may be increased latency during this time.
