Launcher Connection Error

Adding to the fire, same thing for me. (Netherlands aswell) Was able to squeeze through once. But not anymore after.
The forums also took some hectic amount of re-connecting after I tried to log in to reply to this chat.

Same here (Netherlands as well), tried logging in a bunch of times today, nothing works. At one point I could enter my information but it would then just error when I pressed log-in (and not about mistyping my password or something ;) ). I guess at least today I won't be playing, I hope it works again soon, but we'll see I suppose... :(

Same problem here, 6hour try get in here to post. Yesterday and last night gaming with no problems.

Only way to get log in here and to game for me was put VPN on and location to Paris (im from Finland.)

Also experiencing this from Western Finland, worked just fine 16h ago.

E: and as suggested, works just fine if I VPN over to France.

had same issue (Belgium) but i fiddled a bit with my pc network settings and after that i worked. the launcher still is slow and loads nothing else but the log in things work.

No VPN used

Same problem here (germany). But i can access the game via VPN using Frankfurt as Proxy Server

I can also NOT log in since many hours ( Germany is calling :P)

Same here :( ( Germany )

have the same issue, did found a workaround
If you got cellphone internet, let your pc connect through that.
Then start launcher enter your info and click play.
you should be at main menu now. Now you disconnect the cellphone internet and reconnect to your normal internet . Make sure you got a good connection by opening web page
then you click on start to go to character selection screen and login normally
that is how i did it

The problem is from IPS servers which could be mended in time. I'm also playing from Turkey, I just passed to Hotspot of my mobile phone and it worked. Hope this ends in a day or so.
