For God sake Hi-rez, Please load those vendors and let me play the game. if u have any solution plz tell me, i tried verifying file integrity in steam, tried launching from epic.
I remember when i had this issue when i was finally able to log in i deleted a lot of my innactive friends i haven’t had problems with vendors since.
ok, i got the solution from smite reddit as i couldn’t log in that game either. using vpn to enter the game solve the problem. login once with vpn > close the game > login without vpn
try spamming both up and down arrorw keys when you got into that screen
normally it makes the bell icon above to appear or disappear
then after few seconds it sends you to lobby/
