How to Fix Online Connection Error ARSB0003

If you’re seeing the above connection error, it’s likely that your connection to the server just timed out. Hit retry a few times, and if that doesn’t work, try restarting your game and trying again. If all else fails, restart Steam and then give it another shot.

If none of that works, the only other solution is to simply wait. While you do, try resetting your router in the meantime, so that you have the best possible connection when the servers clear up.

Other Arc Raiders Connection Errors

Other errors we’ve found include the “Couldn’t Create Account” error, and a “Network Timeout” error. In either case, simply follow the same steps as above. Retry, and if that doesn’t work, quit the game and restart it.

If that fails, restart your router, then restart Steam, and try again.

Hopefully the servers recover fast and we can all enjoy some ARC Raiders real soon!

As a lifetime gamer, I was around to enjoy the NES, witness the birth of the PS1, and live through the golden age that was the PS2. My favorite game (no doubt driven by nostalgia) is Final Fantasy VII, but I'm always on the lookout for my new favorite.
