    if you actually look at the history of it all i have seen posts as old as sept 2011 having the same issues, wether the cause is the same unclear, but when they list a socket failure error 6+yrs ago and we are facing one today seems to me they need to get there DUCKS in ROW so to speak( PG13 of what i was thinking) gets old when earlier i was playing just fine and now cant even get online because launcher WONT work at all and just fails out

    You can use a VPN to get patched then you can log in normally. I connected to west coast and it worked. Credit goes to Luciar in Discord (Make sure you disconnect the VPN before logging in!)

    Yes but when ever there's been a patch the 'back door' doesn't work until you've run the patcher. =(
