WanderingAries Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Looks like @GM Manga is troubleshooting in Discord... Looks like the IP for the login server is 51.161.76.201, so if you type the following into the Windows Run command, then you should get some output, but at this point (unless you don't use it), I'd suggest going to the HC Discord and interacting with them. Windows Command: pathping 51.161.76.201 If this fails somewhere, then it'll suggest that there is an outside network issue. Important: For your privacy, Please remove any personal information from the output of that command if you post it here or otherwise.

MindPsy Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 (edited) same as everyone else PC/Homecoming launcher/win10/defender and IObit/CST/centurylink. everything starts fine, click torchbearer shard and it stalls. few minutes later says can't connect to DB servers. Also there is a Yellow triangle with an exclamation point in it. verify works fine. Edited February 22, 2022 by MindPsy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, mine launches faster than I even expected when clicking (mind you, I'm not having issues), so yeah, it really sounds like it's just good ole internet routing issues. The internet is literally like a highway/web in that if the path you take has an issue Somewhere, then it'll act like a roadblock unless the connection gets rerouted elsewhere, but that's up to the hardware between you and the servers.

Given the situation, I would not be surprised in the slightest to have cyberwarfare/information operations activity going on in that region right now (2022-02-21).
