GTA Epic Games PC online is not a problem?

Maybe someone knows this environment…

I downloaded it from Epic Games GTA since it was free recently. When it starts it loads for a very long time and on the right it says "Social Club Initialization" and after a few minutes "Activation:: Checking game ownership takes longer than normal"

then you wait a few minutes after that I can play the story, but nothing goes online at all. "Timeout while loading game data please return to GTA V and try again later"

my buddy bought it at the same time and despite the same internet provider and connection, it works with him every time he starts, even though you hear about all the faults of epic games at the same time. Uninstalling and reinstalling didn't help. Neither at epic Games, GTA nor Rockstar Games Launcher.
I also created a new Social Club account and connected it to my 2nd epic Games account where I also have GTA. Both accounts do not work although they are not connected to the psn account.

do you know what it could possibly be?

Epic is dirty, take 11 euro in hand and buy gta from Instant Gaming. I also did it and if you want the premium edition then you have to pay 13 euro. You will receive the code directly after ordering and can redeem it in launcher

I think that's the best, I'm getting tired of it. Is this the instant gaming website?

I'll give you a tip because I did exactly the same thing recently with GTA V.

The Rockstar launcher is not working properly, but if you start epic games and go to "Library", you can start GTA V so that you only have to register once and more is enough later.

is a small detour, but it works for that.

If you take it this way, all providers with their own user interface are dirty. Both steam, GOG, Epic, etc.

There's no provider without a launcher.

In the case of GTA V, you have to start the game through almost 3 launcher instances. First epic / steam / etc, then rockstar games launcher with social club account and when you are finally in, you have to wait for the game to load and start.

there was no such circumstance 20 years ago.

I have the same problem. I get the same message and my buddy comes in easily. Luckily I bought GTA on Steam before, it works fine.

Still doesn't work. The same mistake. With a brand new social club account
