Same problem as you blotate:
All is closed.
Launched the game with steam, got to the table.
Launched the launcher, heard 3 bips, saw nGuard disappearing from task manager.
Didnt even have time to launch Aurora, game crashed with API pipeline error 1002.
Made a few tries but still having that API 1002 thingy...
I didnt see any Error 403 though, never tried to start the launcher by itself only...

1002 means you done something wrong on your end, likely missing exclusions.
Exclusion list needed for HD2:
C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Helldivers 2\bin
your Location of Aurora (i.e. C:\My Trainers\Aurora)
C:\Users\usernamehere\Cheathappens
C:\ProgramData\CheatHappens
C:\Users\usernamehere\AppData\Roaming\Cheat Happens
Also make sure Aurora is on a disk and not in documents, downloads or desktop.
I suggest you add these exclusions first, then delete the games BIN folder, reboot your PC. Then start from scratch with the steps
super speed option not working for me.
can someone check is it working?
Try different armor? light armor usually works
