    EDIT: i'm able to connect to ubernet now, but it looks like I uncovered a strange bug in the process. I describe it in detail later in the thread.

    After the latest update I'm stuck at the title screen trying to connect to Ubernet. I tried looking in other threads, but I assume it's not a firewall issue since I was able to easily log in before the last update (I even tried tinkering for the hell of it but got nothing). I can't think of what else it might be.

    Can you open this link?
    https://uberent.com/user/login
    Do you have any firewall installed?

    And please can you explain when it's happen, I mean it's happen on login screen inside game, or you just can't join/start game?

    It's probably firewall issue because game executable changed and your antivirus/firewall might think about that as about new program.

    Ok I tried reinstalling everything and it works now, but before I did I noticed a very strange bug that might have contributed to the problem.

    Like I said, I got past the launcher, but once i tired pressing the login button it kept saying "connecting to ubernet" nonstop.

    Now here's the weird part. I don't have the steam version, but in the bottom right corner it says i can connect to steam community by pressing shift & tab. And I didn't even have steam open! Somehow the game thought it was the steam version. Maybe that's why I couldn't connect?

    No, it's not your problem.

    There is already no special no-steam build, so steam integration is enabled even if you don't get game though Steam.

    Then how is it that I can no longer access steam in-game now that I've reinstalled the game? It's either one or the other.
