Thank you very much for bringing your current issue to our attention and I do apologize about the unexpected experience you had within your play-through.
Disable ipv6 in network adapter.
From the Start/Windows Menu, select Settings.
Select Network and Internet.
In the Status section, under Change your network settings, select Change adapter options.
When the Network Connections window opens, right-click your network connection.
Select Properties. Scroll to Internet Protocol version 6.
Uncheck the Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) box.
Select OK to save your changes for the selected network adapter.
You must restart the PC.
Try launching the game again.
I hope this information granted has been provided you gives a great and helpful insight.
Why, or how, does disabling IPv6 resolve an error I have not encountered in the last 4 months? Why is this occuring now and why is the only solution to “gimp” my PC settings?
So I have crappy internet sometimes when I play from my RV on my mobile hotspot. I get this message anytime I launch the game and my wifi is out. There is a callback that happens over the internet while it’s being launched and if it can’t make that callback it will give you this message.
I’d check your connection and give it another shot - that works for me.
There are way many reasons why that needs to be turn off as in the case of address space is full in IPV4, the internet grows and never stops and the fact that IPv6 is not supported that much on gaming. Meaning that disabling IPv6 lets your pc run NW without any difficulty as you recently encountered.
Now, I would like to know if you already did it back in 4 months or not. If not I encourage you to go ahead and try it.
Just go ahead an disable IPv6, so you can get on to the next troubleshooting step; instead of being argumentative against it. It’s really not that big of a deal disabling it. IPv6 is more of a failsafe/safeguard measure for the future, when there will be a need of expanding IP address leases. As of right now, most games do not take advantage of IPv6.
I have literally never encountered a situation with any PC game in which disabling IPv6 was necessary. I have not encountered this issue in the first 4 months this game has been live.
I fail to see how restricting my network settings should be a necessary step just to run this game. I anxiously await an actual explanation.
Direct from the people that created and maintain the operating system on my PC
“Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is a mandatory part of Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 and newer versions. We do not recommend that you disable IPv6 or its components. If you do, some Windows components may not function.”
Your guarantee is worth very little to me. Your input is not helpful.
That is a HORRENDOUS article. Seriously . . . horrendous.
Nerds that work in the networking world would tell you that 99% of what the woman wrote is pure bs.
What she wrote ONLY works if the whole network is IPV6. It isn’t. There are so many hops on the internet that something is getting translated, thus negating her purported benefits.
You might want to see what CISCO says. They tend to have more equipment that routes more traffic than anyone else.
