Help Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid appears to be broken for new players on Steam

With BftG being cheaper than ever on the Steam sale, I decided to push it for my friend group's weekly. Unfortunately, when attempting to test online, a friend who just bought the game was unable to get online. They're given an error saying "You are currently offline. Connect to the internet to play a Ranked or Casual Match 1-4." Reinstalling, verifying files, restarting the pc, restarting their router, nothing seems to work. A few other players on the Steam Discussion forums have similar issues. I've had the game for years now and can login just fine, so I worry it's a case of being unable to make an nWayPlay account for crossplay services or something. I truly hope this isn't the case, because I love the BftG to bits and don't want to see the community start to wither because new players can't get in. This is partly a PSA and partly a call for help to see if anyone has a solution or workaround.

I'm not certain but I'm on windows 11 and the game runs perfectly fine, online and everything.

Then you should ask them to update their drivers and such like that. It might help but not guaranteed
