If you’re among the many affected by recent server outages in Escape From Tarkov, you’re not alone. Over the past 24 hours, countless thousands of players have been unable to connect.

Reportedly, one solution to the problem is changing your in-game nickname. It’s a simple fix to a complex issue, and many won’t want to change their handle. It’s their brand and online persona.
