Ever since the servers went down I haven't been able to connect (even after the servers came back up). I made a petition about it a couple days ago but that was never answered. I can log into the launcher and hit "Play", and it launches the game normally. However, when the game is trying to connect to Tranquility, it says "Connection Failed" and brings up this message: "Could not connect to the specified address. Odds are that you have not established an internet connection, the server isn't running, or the server address or port number was wrong." After trying to hit "Connect" on the menu screen, it still comes up with the same message.Cry

I get the exact same error message, but if i fire up my VPN i can connect and play without an issue.

Playing on Ubuntu 17.04, using eve launcher/wine modified by CCP Snorlax (Thanks ;) )
