#Connection issue

Whenever my friend tries to connect to my server his game crashes or he gets forwarded back to the main menu. We have tried different severs (EU&NA / CIS), disabling Cloud Saves (without deleting save files, just created a fresh server), but nothing helps. Is there anything else we could try?

#

Idk if it's important to mention that, previously, when we were playing on our first server, such a problem didn't occur

Additionally, he's from Russia, using no VPN, as far as I know

Hello! Can your friend try to use a VPN we've siin alot of iuues connecting from Russia (you could also try SEA connection service - it will not affect your ping whuile you play it will only required for establishing connection)

fresh estuary
#

We have tried both SEA connection and VPN - nothing works. Everything worked perfectly until the last update.

#

Anything else we could try?)

Also, is there any chance you guys fix the problem in the nearest future, or it's not smth on the game side?

#

can you tell me a few things about how you play?

you host from the game right?
ther are 4 of you, and one person can not join?

fresh estuary
#

Yes, I host a server from the game directly

Play --> Host a Game --> Choose / Create Server --> Confirm

All settings are common, but we have also tried changing them: amount of max players, all connection services, create a server with/out a password

#

Here's what happens when I try to join his server

It keeps loading, then it either crashes the game without any error messages or forwards back to the main menu

On the video, the game has just crashed

did he try to disable that thing that people use to access discord from ru? it helped some people, i assume discord would still work while vpn is on
