Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone else is having an issue connecting to the open beta as every time I open it I can't play as it just says "The Open Beta Test version cannot be played. Unable to connect to the game service." I tried reinstalling and verifying the game files, still nothing. I've also been opening the game periodically to see if anything changes. A shame because I was looking forward to trying this game but it seems I won't be able to.

after launch the beta, make sure to alt-tab and allow the beta in the windows firewall.

When I open the game I never got the window asking for access, so I checked Windows Firewall directly. It is already allowed through but still won't connect.

I have this problem too. I went to Windows Defender Firewall, enabled the playtest, and it still isn't working.

I had this problem as well. Restarting steam seemed to fix it.
