Unprovoked EAC Temp Server Bans

Recommended Posts

I just bought the game and have been trying for nearly two hours to join a server. The game connects to the server and then gets to the world download stage. Once there sometimes it will download a few percent (~7%) and then bring me back to the main menu. On one occasion it happened to get to nearly 90% before crashing. After trying to connect to the same server a few times in a row I receive a temporary EAC ban for about 15 mins. This is extremely frustrating to deal with, especially since I have no malware on my computer. Like I said, its just a temp ban but it happens every couple of join tries and that adds up. I attached an image of the ban prompt. If anyone knows how to fix either the world loading issue or the EAC ban issue please lmk.

Taking you way too long to connect to the server. If you have a slow connection, or a high ping to the server, and the server has a large map, then it will take longer to download the data. Since it takes you forever to download due to a large number of dropped packets, the server saves itself and kicks you. This results in a 15-minute temporary ban.

 

This is most commonly caused by being far away from the server, or using crappy wifi.
