This error indicates that something is blocking the connection between your PC and our backend provider. This is particularly common for some of our Russian players due to the Russian Government’s ban on various IP addresses, sadly including those our servers are located behind.
I don’t have VPN and / or Virus scanner or anything that blocks my connection.
Last night, it was unplayable. SSL_CONNET_ERROR then I pressed on and restarted the game, then I got Signin Timeout then I restarted the game, I got SSL_CONNECT_ERROR, I restared the game.
I played against the grain, in the last scene, the portal, where I get my loot: SSL_CONNECT_ERROR, I restarted the game SO NO LOOT .
Every time I craft anything, SSL_CONNECT_ERROR!!!
On Friday night, no issue though no SSL_CONNECT_ERROR or Signin timeout, I played over 8 hours, sometimes I was host and sometimes guest, and I collected 14 legends loots.
Not sure Why this is such a random error, and all are happening since the patch 1.2.1!!!
Yes, I do not use VPN usually.
Frankly this issue is really random.
After I made this post I played every day for a week. I haven’t had a single disconnect ever since. I hope it’s gone for good.
I have got this today over 6 times. Mainly if I go to the inventory and change a weapon or crafting, SSL_CONNECT_ERROR. Then when I re-load the game nothing is changed or crafted.
It happens when my computer tries to connect to Fatshark server to save data (I think)
