Sometimes, your friends just don't like the same games as you, so it's great to have an option to play with others online. Here's how to fix the Login Failed error in Content Warning so you can do just that.
How to resolve the Content Warning Login Failed error
Content Warning has a hosting issue where you can't create your own lobby, which isn't great when you're trying to play with friends. However, even if you try to join casually, the game experiences many problems. Here's how to resolve the Login Failed error in Content Warning.
You will get this error when you try to join the random queue. I got several different screens that said: 'Lobby room has reached its maximum size,' 'Game is closed,' and even 'Game does not exist.' That last one is definitely not true. If you also got these errors, don't worry. There are a few ways you can try to fix them.
Check your internet connection
First, check if your internet is working properly. Restart your router to make sure everything is working and stable and it's not preventing you from entering a lobby. If your internet is not the problem, there are other solutions.

Restart your computer
Have you tried turning it off and on again? You may be tired of this question, but it often works, and maybe in this case too.
- Quit the game.
- Turn off Steam.
- Restart your computer.
- Open Steam and play the game.
Reinstall the game
If the reboot didn't fix the problem, then it might reinstalling the game will work. Go to the Manage button on the game's page in your Steam Library and click uninstall. If you want, you can restart the computer here too, just to make sure you've covered all the bases. Once Steam is back up, install the game again and try to join a room.
Check game files
Sometimes, files can be corrupted, causing problems in the game, such as getting an error when you try to join a lobby. This can be fixed by checking the integrity of game files.
- Open Content Warning in your Steam library.
- Click on the Manage button.
- Click on the Properties button.
- Go to the Installed Files tab.
- Click on the Check integrity of game files a button
- Wait for Steam to finish verifying, and then open the game.
Check for developer updates
Sometimes, it's just a problem you can't fix. If the error persists, then there must be a problem with the the servers of the game. Since this is a game from an independent studio, they may not have been prepared for the large amount of people who decided to play Content Warning.
You can follow the Landfall Games studio its societies to see what they are currently updating on. They are actively working to fix any issues that have been brought to them, so it stands to reason that they will also be working to fix this bug. Until that happens, only keep clicking that join buttonand you will finally enter a lobby.
