Seems like a firewall problem to me. Did you check if windows firewall is on? If so, try putting it off.
Seems like the traffic to connect is getting blocked. This often creates a 'crash like'-situation. You should launch the game in windowed mode (run wwconfig.exe and select windowed mode) so u can force it to close when it 'crashes'. This will also allow you to see possible firewall block messages.
You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

That's what I thought, but then I read through again and read this:
