Is there a way to avoid the 2002 error?

Pay my $15 subscription fee for this month, then I’ll wait.

Ask nicely in support and they may add game time to compensate but they will check logs to see if you played or not.

Kindness is key even if pissed

Are you on Playstation or PC? I get kicked but it always puts me right back even after the client completely kicks me out. I'm on a PS5.

PC

Now I keep trying to get back in, and keep getting 2002 before I even get to the que or main character select screen

I get that theres a billion people trying to play and servers are going to be full but is there a way to avoid the 2002 error? Im willing to wait in line for however long it takes but ive been getting kicked out all day after making it halfway through a 5k person q, it seems kinda pointless to keep trying.

the only known way right now is don't log in during peak times.
