As we've been talking through this in discord, it does appear that some have resolved the issue via VPN

It appears to be a routing issue

Same problem.

But funny fact: I was in game around 14:30  because now I always check after each update if everything is working.
So why did it suddenly stop working?
We are also sure that it is NOT OUR FAULT.
I managed to connect via VPN, but this does not solve the problem!!!

But why I have to do something that I ain't supposed to be doing/ There is the game that must work, it was working before, after update it crashed. Where the reaction of developers or other that should be responsible for this items? It so pretty if doesnt work than do yourself to start it working, we dont care. This is the point of all this?

The same!!!

Same problems here... 

The same...

same :(

same... 

there is a custom launcher that works, imagine some individual developer off github doing a better job than PA, crazy

So probably it has something to do with EAC. Ppl say it helped after deleting this folder from the game files.
For me VPN helped.

My algorithm:

1) turn on vpn

2) lauch the game

WORKED

3) exit the game

4) turn off vpn

5) launch the game

logs ok now.

I used the free Proton vpn GMs suggested.
