It worked yesterday again when i tried. I didn't know that there was a server choice in the setting so that's good to know. :)
If the problem occurs in the future, I will try change it and see if that helps!
Thanks for the response!

I have the same issue. Except for me, when I switch to offline mode I can't see my character so I cannot play the game at all. I've tried switching to several other network locations and relaunched the game multiple times.

Ya same issue. Took 45 minutes to actually authenticate and then now it says cannot create a game. Restarted the client, not able to authenticate............

I am having the same problem as well I cannot create an online mode game

When I switch to offline mode it doesn't even display my character please fix

Hi guys,

I had the same problem. For me it was fixed by going to "Settings" --> "Network Settings" and select the region "Europe (Lowest Latency)". Before that the region selected was "Auto". There are lots of region options, so maybe this could be a fix for you.

Best of hopes.

I guess these guys didn't realize this problem is nearly a year old...

So much for that influx of players excuse everyone had.
