Epic Games login every time you boot

[Klausbdl]

This post is about the Epic Games version, and since there is no epic games forum for games, I have to post here.
Everytime you boot the game, it promps to login with you account, which makes NO sense whatsoever for a singleplayer game.
I wanted to look at the boot screen with the weird morse code noise, but theres this window on top that asks you to log in your epic account, and I miss that little thing I was curious about. Clicking on the X at the top right to close this window just closes the entire game ffs
Like I said, its everytime you boot the game. I logged in, quitted from the main menu, booted the game again only to see the login screen AGAIN. This is so frustrating lmao

Translated using google translator.
Until another solution is found, disable the game from accessing the Internet using the firewall.

Než se najde jiné řešení zakaž hře přístup na internet pomocí firewalu.

Unfortunately that didn't work for me. Still get same popup to login everytime.

Shame that this game is going to get ignored because of this bug.

Hello there,

I tried one thing which works for me,

turn off your Internet from your PC just before launching the game, after the game is running turn on your internet again.

But I am not sure about game achievements working or not.

That doesn't even work. Because the epic store won't let you play anything if there's not internet connection. Because your not signed in to your account that way.

Translated by Google translator. Tried it on several PCs and it worked. Use the firewall to block the game from accessing the Internet. The client must remain connected. Do not use the firewall from Windows, but install your own.

turn off your internet connection, then go to the installation directory (Epic Games\EternalThreadsVrI7Z\) and double click on EternalThreads.exe directly.

I'm having this same issue. Disconnecting from the internet is only a temporary fix, because as soon as you want to reconnect, it pops back up. Customer service wasn't any help, and in fact recommended that I try blocking it with the firewall like ya'll are recommending.

Achivements are not working no matter if you log in or not... so there is that...

It does this for me too and when I leave the game and go on my desktop while the game is running, my whole screen kinda bugs like an ancient tv (with lines).

[Niszyciel]

for me i have to make new account for epic or sign up using something else
when nothing works
facebook blocks continue as me button
steam doesn't connect
playstation has error when i try loging in
i figured there isn't anything that wotks for it
and i also have the game in chinese

Literally impossible for me to even run this game. Login/signup popup every time and if you don't it dumps you back to the desktop. They've really made a mess of the epic version.

There are 2 *.exe files in the game's folder. I added both to be blocked for inbound and outbound connections and the game loaded the main menu successfully without the EGS pop-up.

Haven't played much yet (just checked the settings), probably going to start next weekend.
