Main Thread - Error when joining or making lobby

This is the error I get.

Just thought I share some of the stuff I have tried so far:

  • Tried joining a lobby - No issues.
  • Tried creating a lobby on US West (via US server) - Error at ‘entering lobby’.
  • Tried creating a lobby on Australia (via US server) - Error at ‘entering lobby’.
  • Tried creating a lobby on KOR server (logging on to the KOR server) - No issues.
  • Tried queuing for ladder / co-op - No issues.
  • Tried restarting SC2 - Issue remains.
  • Tried ‘auto join’ feature - Issue remains.
  • Tried multiple different maps - Issue remains.

At this point in time, it seems that the issue is probably on the server (or at least Activision side) rather than the game.

[UPDATE #1]

I actually got a time out when queuing for co-op. It was fine when I did the 2nd time.

My suspicion is that Activision may be changing some of the server settings, etc. The possible plus side would be more efficiency. The possible down side may be a reduction in no. of hosting servers hence such issues.

Though take this with a pinch of salt. They are just hypothesises, and I could possibly be making wild assumptions.

[UPDATE #2]

Seems like the issue is fixed. Though we will probably never know what happened.

[UPDATE #3]

Seems like it is working for some, and not working for others. I wonder if it has to do with each person’s location. I am creating from US. Is someone creating from outside of US?
