I checked and it seems to be Epic Games GameServices Authentication is having a Major outage. It is not a Fatshark problem its a Easy Anti-Cheat server problem. Smh

It seems they fixed it and if not for you, try to disable steam overlay.

Same problem, Just made my own post about it. Looked through my console log and I keep seeing a Lockout warning from api.epicgames.dev/auth/v1/oauth/token ←This thing. Guessing EOS API is cooked again. EDIT: Its epic game Game-services Authentication servers. They are having a major outage again.

So even if I own the game on steam, epic games can f**k up my game? great

Try to disable steam overlay.

do you have reshade installed on the game?

Update: The problem is fixed now somehow
