Not connecting - going into offline mode February 2021

Within the past week I am not able to connect consistently. About 50% of the time when I start the game, it puts me in offline mode (no error code). Usually, I just have to restart the game to connect.

Anyone else seeing this?

Is this just a continuation of the connection issues from a few weeks ago?

  • Any news about this issue? I don't want to be rude or anything, but i find it shameful that a company this big don't care about their services. This is going on for months! I understand that the game is no longer supported, but newcomers or older players are greeted with this issue, lots of them don't know that you need to click about 10 times to even connect is just bad for the buisness and also hurting the playerbase.

    For what its worth...

    Windows 11 helped with this issue on my rig. While the issue is still there, I don't have to try reconnecting as many times. As well, I've found I can more frequently connect on first attempt.

    More of a Windows update than an install. I had Windows installed long before the issue showed up.

    I wish that was the case.  I completed a fresh Windows 10 install on Monday and the issue is as persistant as the day I purchased the game.

    I have attempted both my local server (Seattle) and the Auto Selected Server - nothing stops the issue.

    I have checked my Event Logs in Windows and there are no network issues.

    I have attempted to play from a laptop I own and the same issue persists.

    Yeah, it's pretty much table stakes for playing the game, although I'd certainly be curious if there is anyone who never experiences the issue.

    The good news is that (at least for me) once connected, I stay connected.
