NordVPN exclusion

[Ake]

so my game wont run with nordvpn. Does anybody know if there is an exclusion i can add in nord vpn to run warframe alongside my vpn?

I got PIA VPN. It runs just fine with VPN on. But i prefer to run with a function it has called Split Tunnel. Which allows me to specify programs that bypass VPN.

nordvpn does have split tunnel, i just don't know which .exe to do it with

[ParasiteX]

Warframe.x64.exe

I use the split tunnel with nord on all the exe's in the warframe folder as the game will not run with it on...apparently

thing is, the game will not connect anyway, nord has to be turned off completely as split tunnelling is ignored. It is the only game that does this.

as a warning the game can and has banned people for vpn usages

Sounds like they are trying to bypass the vpn to play warframe.

And yes people get banned for using VPN, when they are using it circumvent regional pricing. As long as your not buying things with the VPN on, you should be fine.

It would be nice if they would use valves relay network so I dont have to worry about exposing my ip in public missions. Im paranoid and have been internet stalked before.

dont use vpns

Yes, i am trying to avoid using the vpn by using split tunnelling, but warframe wants it off completely. Literally the only game that does that.

Did anyone find a solution to this apart from turning off the VPN fully ?

Unfortunately no luck so far. NordVPN does have split tunneling but even with that enable it appear the frames are routed to a Nord server first. Test using tracert and NordVPN documentation suggest this is the case at least. As well as even with split tunnel enable and setup correctly, it still doesn't work.

how well any vpn provider will work (or not) with gaming depends on many things, including from where you are and where you connect too (which is obvious, i know... but there is a misunderstanding about what vpns are meant for, and gaming was never the primary use for it).
the main problem, and likely the one that makes warframe difficult for some people who uses nord (or other provider) is likely the high(er) latency which might lead to timeout errors when connecting to the login server and/or later the matchmaking (i just had such host in my last mission - coincidently, also one who used nordvpn ^^)
there aren't many 'real' solutions to the problem other than either moving away or changing either the internet provider and/or vpn service provider.
one vpn provider who is better regarded for gaming is 'ExpressVPN' (or similar in name) - but i never tested them myself, so that's only hear-say...
the short answer is: don't use VPNs at all if you really, really don't need to - and most people don't, even those from china or russia (lol). if privacy is your concern for using VPN, then forget about that - you can easily identify as person by many other ways even with a VPN in use. there are some 'technical' reasons other than privacy (which still IS a reason, just not for gaming in most cases) where one need to use a VPN, but either you shouldn't play games from out of such networks anyway or you'll have to live with the problems its use (or the 'solutions' like switching the provider) will get you.
oh, and yes there are also 'ideas' how to improve connections tunneled through a VPN, but if one has problems with a VPN in the first place AND didn't already know what to do (meaning those who might read this here) they probably shouldn't go mess with any settings themself or risk making thing worse.
