I live in egypt and i just bought the game yesterday. yet i can't play the game unless i'm using a VPN. otherwise i just get a connection failed error.

is there a way to play without a vpn?

Interesting. Does the Egyptian government censor anything on the internet and this game get caught in that exclusion?

the egyptian government does indeed censor some stuff. I tired connecting using mobile data with different ISP with no luck.

is there a way to bypass the censorship?

If your net is censored or proxy'd, VPNing is the only option you really have technically, that or moving to another country but VPNing is your best option and cheapest

did you read the topic? its YOUR end of the internet being blocked on YOUR side of the ocean... nothing the STEAM forums can do to change how YOUR country operates.

I know the problem is from OUR side, because of how OUR country operates and blocked VoIP services, but I'm still asking the OP which if he has found any work arounds other than using a VPN, I don't know why you're being such a jerk about me asking for help?
