I am having an issue with the social helix glitches in the game. Every time I pick one up I get the message "The Social Glitch service is currently unavailable. Please try again later." out of the 30+ I have come across in the game only twice has it registered. Oddly enough in the same game session I got both the error message when picking one up and then later it worked when I got another, leading me to think its Ubisofts servers and not my PC or connection. If anyone has an idea what could be causing this and how to fix it Id love to know.
Hi Kankatsu, these steps may help with this issue.
I'm just gonna quote myself from Steam forums:
Old issue I know but I collected over a dozen of social glitches, all gave me the infamous "service unavailable" error except for 3 (each credited me 10 helix credits)
The interesting part: those 3 that did gave me H credits just happen to have a Uplay friend that was playing the game at that same time when I collected them ... Coincidence or is this how the "Social" helix is intended to be from the start ?!!
Sadly that friend didn't play it again (I guess he just played a bit when he got it from EPIC Store giveaway and forgot all about it)
Anyway if anyone interested to test this add me on Uplay, ID: A.M.R.

Ubisoft, honestly, why put in a feature to allow people earn Helix Point and then not only not have it work, but never bothering to actually fix it? It was first reported between 2012 and 20-freaking-13, it's 2020 and issue still persists to exist. Either fix it, or take the hell out of the game. Don't just dangle the carrot in front of people and no let them have it after a couple of attempts.
EDIT: I put years wrong, I misread Member Join Date and when post was made. Nevertheless, 2018 and 2020, issue still there, fix it, please
