Server Error showing up based on location?

Issue Type (Required):

Error - SERVER ERROR

Issue Description (Required):

Heya, when trying to log into the game I got the “Server Error. Sign-in timeout”. I’ve tried most solutions offered online (flushing dns, verifying files, restarting..) to no avail.
I have 4 friends (as of now) who are having the same issue as me.
Out of frustration I decided to use VPN, and surprisingly, I managed to log in.
I suggested my friends try the same and it worked for them too. I think it’s important to note my friends live in the same country as me.
I would rather NOT use VPN every time I play, so is there a solution for the issue? Is that a known issue?

  • I had no issue when playing a week ago
  • Despite the VPN I was still unable to invite or join my friends

Hi! Have you recently made any changes to your PC that could explain it, perhaps any changes to your PC’s hosts?

nope, nothing :\

Got it. Are your buddies using the same ISP, too?

Not all of them.
Just tried playing again and it logged me in, no issues :smiley:
I have no idea why it suddenly works, but no complaints haha. I was just worried my country was perhaps banned and that the issue will not resolve unless I report it.
Thank you for the quick response!
