Unable to Host Online

[Capn Forge]

No mods, second play session ever, and I cant launch our Story. When I click "Host Online, It shows the loading dots for about 5 seconds, then pops up with "Failed to Launch Game: Failed to Create Game Session"

Internet test clean, multiple other games work just fine. Play Offline works just fine. Is there a server outage?

Maintenance Tuesday Shenanigans. Due to the way it is spaced out over time across the world, this can cause all kinds of things to happen from steam profile bugs, to servers going down. For example, i had this interesting bug happen to me before from maintenance tuesday.

Just wait 2-3 hours or wait till later on the next day and see if it fixes itself as most problems caused by maintenance tuesday fixes themselves.
