ROB RUN loading bugs & error codes

Short answer

Start with Kefir’s official steps: check your connection, restart the game and Steam, update your graphics driver, and verify game files in Steam (Properties → Installed Files). For “waiting for status information” and endless loading, players report that Alt + F4 and an instant relaunch gets them in. Search any E-code below.

“Waiting for status information” and endless loading

The most-reported problem of launch week, with dozens of forum threads. What we know:

  • Kefir’s explanation: repeated DDoS attacks on the servers since the night of 6–7 November, causing connection errors and lag. Dev post
  • What players see: the load bar runs to about 75%, hangs, then drops you back on the world map. Players
  • Workaround players share: press Alt + F4 and reopen the game straight away. Reported to work with parties too. Players
  • Some players think it’s a client bug, not the DDoS, because after Alt + F4 they spawn with a “Player is in an invalid location” message. Players
Before you Alt + F4

If you’re carrying loot as a Criminal in the city, closing the game mid-session is a gamble. Kefir hasn’t said what happens to your bag on a forced quit. If items vanish after a crash, contact support with your UID. Official Official

  • E-0904Other

    An unexpected internal in-game error.

    Fix: Restart the game. If it keeps happening, copy the error text and send it to support.

FPS drops and stutter

If FPS drops to single digits whenever you move the mouse but is fine when you stand still, Kefir says the cause is a mouse polling rate that’s too high. Official

  • Lower the polling rate in your mouse software (Logitech, Razer, Bloody and so on).
  • Still stuttering? Update graphics drivers, update your BIOS (especially on 13th/14th-gen Intel CPUs), and turn off overlays like Discord or GeForce Experience.

Players with older CPUs that lack AVX2 (for example Xeon E5 v2) report crashes about five minutes in. Unconfirmed by Kefir. Check the minimum CPU. Players

Easy Anti-Cheat errors

ROB RUN uses Easy Anti-Cheat. Cheating means a permanent ban. For EAC errors, Kefir asks for a screenshot and your UID. Official Codes E-0501/E-0502 cover EAC that isn’t running or is blocked; launch through Steam only. Official

Are the servers down?

There’s no official status page. Kefir posts outages in a pinned Steam thread, as it did for the DDoS attacks, and in its official communities. Dev post Official On 9 November the help center also showed a banner about technical issues on the EU server. Official

Questions players ask

Why is ROB RUN stuck on “waiting for status information”?

Kefir hasn’t published a fix. Its pinned notice says the servers were under repeated DDoS attacks from 6–7 November, which causes connection errors. Players report that pressing Alt + F4 and relaunching right away gets them into the map.

Why won’t Looty Bay load?

Players report the loading bar stopping around 75% before they’re sent back to the world map, often during server trouble. Try Kefir’s official steps: check your connection, restart the game and Steam, update your graphics driver and verify game files. The Alt + F4 relaunch workaround also works for many.

What does error E-0904 mean in ROB RUN?

An unexpected internal in-game error. Kefir says to restart the game, and if it persists, copy the text from the error window and send it to support.

Are ROB RUN servers down?

Kefir has no public status page. Check the pinned “ROB RUN Server Update” thread on the Steam forum, the official Discord and the official X account. Kefir posts outages there.

How do I fix FPS drops when moving the mouse?

Lower your mouse’s polling rate in its software (Logitech, Razer, Bloody and so on). If stutter remains, update graphics drivers, update your BIOS (especially on 13th/14th-gen Intel CPUs) and turn off overlays like Discord or GeForce Experience.
