So I opened 7d2d tonight at 6 p.m my time and now have an error that epic online services login cannot fully initialize can someone confirm that this may be just a maintenance issue that hasn't been reported, i had no issue this morning at 2 a.m when i stopped playing

Just checked my log file and has the same response.

Also after checking the log i noticed the retry time is getting longer by 15 seconds each try.

So after retrying for half an hour it finally gave me the option to play offline, why is epic game services having a hissy fit stopping people from playing 7days

Why is Epic preventing Steamgames from working in the first place?

because Epic is used for cross PC and console platform connection.

Since this is a pretty major issue for multiplayer, the devs really should be more public and posting about this and what they're doing, with an ETA imo.

But it should not affect Steam players from playing the game they bought on Steam.
 
I recently had to reinstall the game.
With the cross platform service through Epic The game requires at least being able to connect to the services at least once. Currently not being able to. and not being able to launch the game in an offline mode I've been looking for a temporary solution.
The solution thus far was to go into the platform config file and remove EOS from the line:. Crossplatform=EOS

May run into issues once the EOS comes back online but. for now it works.
 
Setting steam offline lets me in, then when I set steam back online and invite people to the co-op game they see an error about the server initialising. temoving the EOS from the platform config seems to mess with my save, puts me back at lvl 1 etc.
 
I've attempted setting Steam to offline and starting up the game however I still get the error and it says this 1761953308482.png

Its because your Steam ID and your EOS ID are different so it Thinks your a new or different player. And will set you back to lvl 1.
 
This is such a stupid issue.
It feels like Epic is holding our Steam games ransom.
Hm. Does it say clearly on the steamstore that it also required Epic to be allowed to play?

Would it be great if you can't log into Windows due to some Apple issue or vice versa?

EOS is required to play online, like for Crossplay and Server Administration.
But I don't understand that, when playing solo, why do we still need it?

Well, they did say it wasn't supposed to prevent playing the game solo when that EOS issue occurred, so it may be a bug.
 
I'm growing rather Irritated with how the issue with EOS connectivity issues persisting. It is rendering the game unplayable with out having to edit the platform config since I'll only be able to play solo.
