Infinite loading screen

I had this problem too. I just restarted my PC and and turned off my VPN temporarily (the reconnect to a different IP might’ve also been what fixed it, i dunno), and I got in finally (on US Central)! Hope you guys will get in too.

Yesssssss!!! The solution with the VPN off and US Central Server works!!! The loading screen was only about 1 second, this time.
I hope I can reconnect at EU West Server with VPN on next time.

Update: With VPN on, there is infinite load screen in town. I tested Luxembourg and Netherlands as servers on EU West, but both have the same issue. Last Epoch is not playable at EU West for me. I live in Germany, it’s a joke…

VPN off works!

Not running any VPN here on US Central and very long loading screens persist. Very long = 30+ minutes. On 2 occasions it never came back after an hour and I just had to kill the game. I’m trying to load into Maj’elkan Catacombs right now, sitting for about 15 minutes. But the weird part is it’s not really loading. I can click the mouse and hear the footsteps of my character moving around.

same. stuck in screen. you can interact with stuff, quest buuble of nps are shown etc but the sreen pic wont go

Please try to run .exe file as Administrator. Or set it to always run as Administrator in the compatibility settings as explained in this post (link below). This solved my problem of stuck loading screen.

Marked as a solution on this thread

Running as administrator is not solving the problem with VPN ON. Without VPN Last Epoch is running as normal user or administrator.

Same here anyone found a solution for this?

Same here… i had better exp. with games in early access then this laggy piece of garbage.

I have found a solution with NordVPN on. I added Last Epoch to the Split-Tunneling list and set the VPN-protocoll to OpenVPN (UDP). Now it works and the connection is better than without VPN.

I have this issue without using any VPN. I manage to bypass this once but next day I got this issue again. Any ideas of what might be causing this other than VPN?

This actually worked for me too but I don’t understand why it worked with the split-tunneling only?
Things that didn’t work for me-
Protonvpn
Nordvpn without split-tunneling
Cloudflare WARP
No VPN

Just wanted to say this worked for me too for NordVPN, thx for posting it.

For anyone else wondering, add Last Epoch to split-tunneling in the “disable VPN for” list of Nord. No idea why it works, but it does

Same here, except I can only even get to that screen using a VPN, normally I just get LE-65 forever and ever.

Really wish dev’s would at least comment on these issues to let us know they’re looking into them.

Exact same issue here. Got the LE-65 error for an entire week since launch. I can actually get to loading with WARP, but its just stuck on infinite loading screen too.

I have the same problem, before 1.0 I couldn’t connect without wrap and now I can’t play at all. But I don’t see the point of buying an extra VPN either is there alternative solution to the problem

Buying extra stuff to play a game is never a solution. If you already have a VPN for your own reasons then fine, but if you’re running around buying different ones to play a game because the game won’t natively let you play, THAT’s a problem.

I guess there aren’t enough people getting the LE-65 error or infinite load screen on load in to get the dev’s attention right now. It’ll work some day. I’m gonna try it again at a different location later on to see if changing my actual ISP will do anything.

Same problem, i had it during the first multiplayer betas and now at full release, offline mode has always worked 100% of the time. Ive tried every solution people have put out so far to no avail, apart from buying a vpn as i refuse to, this needs to get fixed.

I just started having this issue today. Nothing has changed with my PC configuration other than the game updating. It’s obviously something to do with the servers because I can load into the game fine in offline mode. I’ve tried 3 different VPN providers and with no VPN, my internet connection is fine. I get 10GB down and 2GB up and my latency to the server is 6ms.

Other than Last Epoch all other services and programs are functioning properly.

I’ve tried everything already lsited here and nothing has worked. So it’s obviously server side issues.

Welp, what worked for me for a couple days now no longer works and I’m stuck on the infinite loading screen again. Like the post above me says, internet works fine for everything and all other online games except Last Epoch
