anyone else having this issue? I literally just bought this game an hour ago.

I'm getting the 0x0045 error when trying to play online, and after showing the error, the game restarts...

No error code here, but searching online lobby forever tough.

Maybe update of the servers?

Hi, I found a similar steam thread which gave a fix for Windows 11. I don't use Windows 11 yet so I've laid out the steps for Windows 10.

Open Control Panel Press Windows key + R, type control, then press Enter.

Go to Network Settings Navigate to: Network and Internet → Network and Sharing Center

Change Adapter Settings On the left sidebar, click Change adapter settings.

Right-click Your Active Connection (Usually called “Ethernet” or “Wi-Fi” depending on your setup) Choose Properties.

Select "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)" Click it once to highlight, then press the Properties button.

Set Your Preferred DNS Server Select: Use the following DNS server addresses:

Then enter:

Preferred DNS server: 8.8.8.8

Alternate DNS server: 8.8.4.4

This worked for me.

I am having the same issue after the "press start" screen.
Changing DNS did not work for me.... any other workarounds for this error?

Hi, I think I have a fix.
Download Cloudflare 1.1.1.1, and once installed, enable ONLY "1.1.1.1"
NOT
"1.1.1.1 with WARP"
WARP acts as a VPN, but 1.1.1.1 ONLY just does something to your DNS which makes the game work, and causes no lag. It works for me. I am starting to get error 0x006 or something nowadays as well, but using 1.1.1.1 fixes all these problems for me.

Do you think changing the DNS directly on my PC might work as well? I was thinking of using either Google DNS or Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 without WARP. I’m hoping that could help fix the issue too.

I changed the DNS on my PC to Google DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4), and it looks like the issue is gone! I haven't had any more problems so far.
