Hello Anita.
Did you check if your Antivirus is not blocking the game process?
Are you sure you didn't overwrite EE2.exe file with some crack downloaded from the Internet?

Please contact me by the Launcher support chat: https://www.ee2.eu/help/#contact
It would be easier to detect the issue.

I also told your cousin (MJ) about this issue, maybe he'll try to help you, since he said he experienced "similar issues" using the "different net".

Greetings.

Hello again.

Here are results of the verification process regarding this issue:

- The problem seem to be related to a Lobby Serverbrowsing Module on port: 28910.
- The problem only affects the current High Performance EE2.eu Server in Germany.
- I have launched the same same Lobby version on a test Server in Poland, and it worked fine for Pakistani users.
- I did several mtr / traceroute tests directly from the main EE2.eu Server, and it seems that packets from EE2.eu gets blocked/forwarded somewhere else at: "static.khi77.pie.net.pk":

- The problem was not present for Pakistani users around 2 weeks ago (first issues report). The lobby module was not updated before and during that time, so it can't be related to some changes made.
- Most likely your country uses some kind of Firewall/Traffic monitor and decided to block some ports / IPs.

The best solution for now is to wait for minimum 4 weeks, for this problem to be fixed.
It seems that Pakistan had some blocking issues before in the past: https://wccftech.com/xbox-live-playstat ... -pakistan/
So most likely those problems will be gone with time.

It's currently impossible to migrate the main EE2.eu Server to a different location/provider, because it would generate additional costs which we can't cover. Also, it seems that after several tries it allows users to log-in, so you still should be able to play.
