Game not loading on Windows 10

Logged off and when I logged back in, I got this message. No problem on mobile. Just on PC. Already rebooted, logged off account and logged back in. Nada.

It can’t connect with Epic Online Server (EOS). Server may be overloaded, wait it out. May need a reinstall if it persists.

Already reinstalled, even upgraded to Windows 11 and installed all new updates and still getting the same error.

Do I need to buy a new computer to play this game? Already crashing and lagging big time on my iPhone 13 Pro. Maybe I need a $10K computer or a $3K mobile phone? For real.

This is quite unbelievable. Lols.

Workarounds that actually help (ranked by effectiveness)✅ 1. Disable IPv6 (THIS FIXES IT FOR MANY PLAYERS)EOS is notoriously flaky with IPv6.

Steps:

Control Panel → Network & Internet → Network Connections

Right-click your active adapter → Properties

Uncheck “Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6)”

Restart PC

🟢 This alone resolves the error for a large number of MCOC PC users.

✅ 2. Change DNS (Don’t skip this)Use a clean public DNS instead of ISP junk.

Recommended:

Google DNS:

8.8.8.8

8.8.4.4

or Cloudflare:

1.1.1.1

1.0.0.1

Restart after applying.

✅ 3. Turn OFF VPNs, Firewalls, and “Security Suites”EOS hates:

VPNs (even split tunnel)

Third-party firewalls

Some antivirus HTTPS inspection

Temporarily disable:

Bitdefender / Avast / Kaspersky / Norton

Any VPN (even if “connected but idle”)

Test login → then re-enable selectively.

✅ 4. Sync Windows Clock (Surprisingly critical)EOS authentication fails if system time drifts.

Steps:

Settings → Time & Language → Date & Time

Enable:

Set time automatically

Set time zone automatically

Click Sync now

⚠️ 5. Run MCOC as AdministratorNot a magic fix, but helps if EOS can’t write temp auth tokens.

I run ipv6, never faced a problem with mcoc on PC
