[2019] Continuous Backend Error: COULDN'T_RESOLVE_HOST

I actually ran a field test while I was at work.. 7 hours of continuous running with running several missions. SO! It was a function of my internet at home..... I can play fine at work and at friends places.

Well... 98% certain anyways.

It's usually the reason, despite Maitre Malterre pressing that the issue lies squarely with us, almost always it's an ISP routing issue or even more localised within the home network (router, network card, interfering antivirus or firewalls).

Whilst other games may work just fine, perhaps they do not store persistence in the cloud (AWS or Azure). It's a lot less simple than FS Fix this, but we are looking to make some tooling we can give to players which will help identify where the issue(s) they experience are. It's going to take some time to get that together though.

Originally posted by endrsgm: would this tool work beyond the game ... meaning could one use it to check problems with internet or isp routing in general?

Not sure really. I expect we'd right a batch process to fire off a bunch of integrated windows tools, so potentially, but given we'd only be looking for information related to the network traffic for our game, it might not be too useful with general connectivity issues for other apps or platforms.
