Does anyone know what this error message means? I haven't been able to play for two days. Is there any way I can bypass it looking for a patch server? :eek:

    Thats usually indication that you have a firewall blocking the ip or port needed for the program. You could try right clicking the shortcut on your desktop and running it as an admin. If that doesnt work, check your firewall settings and make sure you allow access for the launcher and gameclient, also allow ports 7000 through 7500. (easiest way to do this is just disable it or uninstall the software for troubleshooting purposes.

    you can also try clearing your dns cache in case there a bad lookup there for the patch server.

    in the run/command prompt type ipconfig /flushdns
    click ok or enter.
