Still having the issue.

I have configured port forwarding.
Turned off any firewall and anti virus things I have.
Same issue, just sits at Connecting to Data Center at title screen.
Tried clicking Config at launcher, setting everything to default. No luck.
I also tried just connecting to another Data Center. No luck.

I can click on data center, and see that I am on Primal (which is correct for me), but alas still cant play. I was so close to getting my first 50. /sad

Will uninstall and reinstall.
