Since this patch I can't get pass the Cryptic Launcher Autoupdate bar, this keep happening and I cant do anything to pass that other than using VPN, but using VPN i got over 600-1k pings which is impossible to do anything but just login, do weeklies then log out.

    It appears the problem is your DNS server which gives you wrong ip address.

    The ip address of patchserver.crypticstudios.com should be 208.95.184.200.
    Based on your picture, what your DNS server tells your system is 172.217.194.138.

    Since you mentioned VPN kind of work for you, you should check what the IP address you get when you do VPN.

    If you know how to use nslookup.

    Try:

    $ nslookup
    > patchserver.crypticstudios.com
    Server: HAMSTER.HAMSTER.com
    Address: HAMSTER.HAMSTER.HAMSTER.HAMSTER
    Name: patchserver.crypticstudios.com
    Address: 208.95.184.200 <----- answer A

    $ nslookup
    > server 8.8.8.8 <---- change to use google DNS server
    Default Server: dns.google
    Address: 8.8.8.8

    > patchserver.crypticstudios.com
    Non-authoritative answer:
    Server: dns.google
    Address: 8.8.8.8

    Name: patchserver.crypticstudios.com
    Address: 208.95.184.200 <--- answer B

    If answer A does not match answer B, it proves your default DNS server has an issue.
