Dear Captains!
Plarium Play and Game Loading Issues
This topic is created to discuss issues you may experience when logging into the game. Here you will find guides and articles, which contain useful information for troubleshooting. Our moderators and Community Managers can also help you in solving login issues. Besides, please check the solutions posted by other players in this thread. They might be useful for resolving the issue without waiting for a response from the staff.
There are three main reasons why you may experience login issues:
- The server does not respond. The game/ launcher client is unable to connect to the server. It means the request from your PC is delivered to the game server, but cannot be processed.
- Network problems. The request from the game client cannot be passed to the game server due to Internet connection issues.
- Device-related issues. For example, a player needs to update or reinstall some drivers, components, OS on his/ her PC, etc.
In the first case, the issue must be resolved by the game server/ launcher developers.
If the issue is related to some network problems, the developers can rarely affect the resolution from their side. When the request is sent from the game client/ launcher to the server, it goes through a long way before reaching the target. If the connection is lost at some stage, the signal won’t be delivered and will return to the sender (i.e. your game client).
To make the process of solving the issue easier and faster, we have collected all known solutions in one article for you.
