Windows Epic online services

[Whiteshark68]

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

 

[Col. Whitestone]

I agree. The "Play offline" button should be immediately available.

The team is working on a solution as this shouldn't be happening.
Thanks for the reports and log info!

it was a way wider issue than first thought amazon shut down a lot of the world with their meltdown it would appear.

Sorry, I was shopping on-line on Amazon and ordered too many things at once!
Didn't mean to cause such an inconvenience.

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

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.
