update launcher click the prio qeue and log in.
why did the launcher even need a update though? the last one worked perfectly fine??
Need is a strong word here. The reality is that most people can connect fine even without priority login, whitelisting, or any of that stuff. For the remaining people having issues it's hard to narrow down what the exact problem is, so having them update their launchers and do those basic things can just get everyone on the same playing field so to speak.
Doing tech support, it's difficult because first of all people have varying levels of familiarity with the tech they're using. Some are extremely confident and know nothing whatsoever. I get it all the time when helping people, I'll ask legitimately stupid questions and the person will be like "what do you think I'm a moron?!" but if you don't make sure all the basics are covered you can spend hours and hours troubleshooting issues only for it to be an incredibly simple basic issue like a cord not being plugged in lol. It's legitimately difficult.
So yeah, if people are still having issues you want them to make sure they aren't running a six month old version of the launcher etc etc. Because really, it seems like 99% of the playerbase can connect without issue, so from my perspective, the remaining issues are likely issues on the users end not the servers end.
But yeah I don't even use the Launcher myself, and I haven't updated the game or even opened the launcher in a few weeks. It's not "needed" to update and use the priority system the Launcher implemented, but if you're having problems you want to try doing that to see if it changes anything.
