Why can I never get past the loading the screen while on a vpn?

Topic. Why wont the game load when using a vpn? For me particularly this isnt a big issue, but I often have nord running and dont even think about, well until LE reminds me and hangs at the loading screen indefinitely. If steam doesnt ask for credentials while on a vpn, where is the hang up here? Thanks!

I’m on a VPN at nearly all times and haven’t had this problem, so it may be your specific VPN that has an issue.

Thats interesting, thanks for the feedback. Like you, I am almost always behind one also. I guess nord and LE just dont play nice. Thanks man.

I know it’s fairly popular and big name, but I didn’t have a great experience with Nord when I tried it out as an alternative to the one I’m using now.

What are you using now? I am completely impartial to it, at one time it would somehow make both my wired and wireless connection to my main pc completely unavailable every day or 2 until a reboot. That was good times!

I’ve been using IVPN for a few years now. I went back to it after trying out Nord because it has a DNS black hole feature for ad/tracker domains, which makes mobile browsing actually tolerable when I’m outside my home (where I run PiHole). I have no idea what Nord’s alleged ad blocking features actually do, but I still had ad puke all over every website I visited while connected (about which Nord support was less than helpful).

I will give that a look at when my sub ends in 2 months, I have only tried this and express, somehow nord got the w in that fight. Again, appreciate it!
