I bought ARR when it first came out and i was getting this error upon clicking start (back then it was greyed out and i couldnt even press it, but now a days your able to press it). It will try to connect to the data center or whatever, and then say "The lobby server connection has encounted an error. Error 2002." This has been happening since the game came out, and i thought that they were going to fix this error...Im currently using a VPN called Spotflux which makes the game run perfectly fine...but why cant I play the game normally without a program? I want to be able to play without having to use this VPN. Is there something wrong?
Im on comcast internet...if that makes any difference. Idk...I just want to get this settled.

Anyone know :/? Its been happening since this game came out...I just resubed and i thought that this problem would be fixed but its not .... im not sure what to do.
