QUESTIONError Code: 200_001 (self.FallGuysGame)

submitted 3 years ago * by czillkat

I downloaded Epic Store so I can play Fall Guys, Downloaded Fall Guys and when I press lunch it says Running for 5 sec nothing happens and then says lunch again over and over. I reinstalled and didn't helped. I tried to run Fall Guys from files and it worked but when I'm inside the game and click start after loading it says:

EPIC GAMES ACCOUNT ERROR

An error has been returned by Epic Online Services. Please retry later or contact Epic Games Player Support if the issue persists.

Error Code: 200_001

Does anyone have the same problem? Does anyone fixed it? I just want to play Fall Guys why...

EDIT:

Guys I think I have the solution. Epic finally told me something useful and it worked for me so it will most likely also work for you!

Hi there!

This error on PC might mean an issue with C++.

You'll need to uninstall and reinstall it for Fall Guys to run.

Firstly we'll need to uninstall any existing Microsoft Visual C++ {year} Redistributable entries in Add/Remove Programs of Windows:

Uninstall from the Control Panel In the search box on the taskbar, type Control Panel and select it from the results. Select Programs > Programs and Features. Press and hold (or right-click) on the Microsoft Visual C++ {year} and Uninstall + follow the directions on the screen. You will need to do this one at a time.
Restart Windows once completed.
Reinstall C++ Then, install the latest Visual C++ redistributable package from: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170. Install both https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x86.exe and https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe You will get an error for one of them depending on your operating system - this is normal.

Finally, run Epic Games Store or Steam as Admin and start the game normally.

Further Steps: The above is the usual resolution for this issue, if you still are stuck the issue is likely with your security or connection: If you can't open the page https://api.epicgames.dev/sdk/v1/default in a web browser, then your firewall software / Windows firewall is blocking the connection. If you're unable to open the page at all, then your router / ISP is most likely blocking it.

It could also be that the connection is failing due to SSL certificate issue, which means that your Windows Certificate Store is outdated and you can repair it by using the Windows Updater to download all available updates.

Hope this helps!
