The error reads, “XDefiant services are not available at this time. Please try again later,” even though the game’s servers should be up and running.
According to XDefiant’s Executive ProducerMark Rubin, there are two fixes to remedy the error.
As a proper fix,you should delete the proxy_v1.bin file from your XDefiant game files on PC. You can find this file in your My Games folder in your Documents app.
We should support IPv4 just fine. Two things you can try.1) Delete the file proxy_v1.bin from Documents / My Games / XDefiant2) Try using a European VPN just to see if it works. I wouldn’t suggest playing this way. Just a test.
Alternatively, to test things out, you can try to use aVPN and connect to a European IP to see if you still run into the same issue, however, Rubin says to only do this just to test.
If it is possible, you can try to switch to another internet source to test as another alternative fix.
Once you’ve tried the above remedies, just restart your game and XDefiant should be connecting to the servers as normal. It should be noted these steps only work on PCs, there is no fix for consoles just yet.
According to multiplereportsfrom the community, the issue stems from XDefiant not connecting to its servers if a player’s internet uses IPv4, rather only connecting if a user’s internet uses IPv6.

It should be noted that there arereportedcases of the error affecting players with both IPv4 and IPv6.
Although XDefiant should support IPv4 just fine, according to Rubin, players who are using the older internet protocol have reported issues.
Currently, there’s a fix for PC players, however, a remedy for console users has yet to come out, thoughRubin has passed alongthe issue to XDefiant’s devs, so no doubt a fix for it will come out soon enough.
