Hi, for a couple of weeks now i have been getting the same “Backend Error, Error Signing In” message every time i try to play the game and i would like to know if its a problem with my account or if i have been banned and the reasons behind this ban and if it was a mistake because i have barely touched this game having only 2.8Hrs on record, i wish i could play it more often but currently im living in Australia and im moving a lot and not always have good wifi but when i do have it i try to play this game but i cant since im getting this message, i think i was able to properly open and play this game only 3 or 4 times in total.

Hi @Zagg,

Our Backend Developers have taken a look at your logs, and it seems that something appears to be blocking your login requests. Looking at our backend data, no requests appear to have been made by your account at the times shown in the logs.

In this case, I suspect the issue is likely Firewall/Anti-Virus, or ISP related.

Please ensure that you have appropriate Firewall and Anti-Virus exceptions in place.

You’ll need to add exceptions for:

  • Darktide.exe in \SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Warhammer 40,000 DARKTIDE\binaries
  • EasyAntiCheat_EOS.exe in \Program Files (x86)\EasyAntiCheat_EOS

Please let me know how it goes.
