Can't play online

[justAEA]

For the past 4 days, I’m unable to play any of the multiplayer modes (Horde, Escape and Versus). I can play the campaign, but only in offline mode.

When I try to matchmake I get: ‘An error has occured while matchmaking, please try again later. Failed to load playlists. Returning to previous menu.’
When I try to join a friend’s game I get: ‘PESANG’
When I try browsing custom games I get: 0x00000c34
When I try to host my own multiplayer game, server allocation fails after the initial countdown.

I sent a support ticket but I have to wait 2 weeks for them to reply (In TC time that's more likely over a month). I had 9 days of boost and it’ll all go to waste by then. I’m playing the game on Steam but I also tried downloading on Microsoft Store and the result is the same. I did everything they recommend on the support page, going as far as to reinstall Windows and nothing worked. Anybody has/had a similar problem?

Update:Today's update fixed my problem, but that doesn't change the fact that I got locked out of a 60$ Microsoft first party game for 5 days. The incompetence of these devs is incredible.

Are you using a wireless connection if so maybe try resetting the router looking that up seems like some sort of internet connection issue.I don't really know but you should post this on the gears of war forum page maybe someone might be able to reply with a solution.

I posted on the official forums, tweeted at the devs, sent a support ticket but no response so far. I know the devs don't look at steam forums, I just wanted to see if someone else had this problem. To answer your question, I'm using an ethernet cable and I resetted my router many times but no luck.

Thanks for the suggestion, but it didn't work I'm afraid.

Whoooooooooooooooa, Nelly!

Am I to understand that ALL MODES, BESIDES THE THROW-AWAY CAMPAIGN, ARE LOCKED TO [STABLE] ONLINE CONNECTIVITY?!... The core play modes of the game -- which 95% of players buy the game for -- a triple-A priced game -- nay freeware MMO -- that we already pay for and lawfully own?!?

🤨
