Failed to contact key server and no DLCs

[lcpp]

So, I cant launch the game from steam due to "Failed to contact key server" and when I launch from the exe I can't select the DLC tab (blacked out).

Are you still having this issue now? (hour later)

I'm having the same problem "failed to contact key server".

Ok to be sure, have both of you verified the integrity of the game cache?

Having similar issue. See other thread for what happens when online. This happens when I try to start the game offline.

Just bought it and having the same problem. It may be because steam ran out of keys? Just verified the files, the issue continues.

Its working again me.

 

[kr4n3]

I still get the error.

I'm in the same boat. Have reinstalled and still no DLCs (any of them) but can play vanilla 1.8.

No, everything ok.

edit: I did nothing, just waited and eventually the DLC was installed and game launched normally. It was showing as bought but not installed on steam.

Weird, may be some backend issues but we haven't received many reports regarding this. I am sincerely sorry that you've been having these issues.
