Regardless, I use Norton VPN, and 95% of the time when I press play on a roblox game, it either has one of two things.
A, I press play and its on the joining screen forever.
B, I press play and error 429 comes up.
Im pretty sure this is a roblox bug, as this has happened to alot of people on the devforum aswell.
As of early November, I can’t join a Roblox game with my TunnelBear VPN enabled. The client launches but gets stuck on “Joining server…” until I close the program. Disabling the VPN will solve the issue, but that also defeats the purpose of a VPN.

Studio still starts/opens places just fine, but starting a test will take an incredibly long time - nearly a minute - while without a VPN it starts in ~5 seconds.
There’s a similar bug report here, but it had different sym…

Hello, It’s been over a year since I filed this and nothing has changed. I’ve gotten a new error message for connection failed recently, but I mostly turn my VPN off for when I play Roblox so not sure how long that has been going on for. It would be appreciated to get some type of update, as I and many others are in the dark on what’s been happening. It’s very tedious to switch my VPN off and on just for roblox
New error message pictured below:
