Possible reasons for Hunt Showdown error 0x30001

The error code 0x30001- connection to the backend failed is a problem that seems to occur mostly on the server side. It seems to be a recurring problem since the game's release, which crops up every few months. This error is believed to be account-based, and players do not have any control over bypassing this problem.

Crytek, the developer of Hunt Showdown has previously released the following statement:

"We had to cap the server limit to avoid that too many players are overloading the backend server which results in matchmaking issues some might already have experienced. This is only a temporary workaround and should ensure that we run more stable until we have developed, tested and applied a fix for this issue."

As evident from their statement, this issue essentially stops players from logging into the game to prevent matchmaking from being clogged. The developers have seemingly capped the server limit, and until a percentage of players do not log out or stop queueing up for matches, you will not be able to log into the game.
