    As an update for everyone, the issue we're currently experiencing is a DDOS attack. We're actively working on it.

    Ouch. :-(

    Sad that due to online vandalism, your holidays are tarnished. Thanks for working on it.

    Is there an indication about the attacker's motivations? Are you being blackmailed or something?

    Yes, THANKS ! for working on it.

    Maybe the attackers want less players into PvP campaigns to reduce the lagg.

    I played on the PC EU server ok this morning, but haven't tried since reading about the problems this afternoon. However, this site is responding very slowly currently, and as a separate issue Steam seems to be acting up again now with the discussion section not responding.

    So @ZOS_JessicaFolsom is there any news why this is affecting some but not others? My partner and I are playing ESO and we haven't had any issues yet the vast majority of our guildies are offline and even people living close to us are having issues.

    What's causing this, do you know? :).

    Hey Paul! I don't personally know enough about how DDOS attacks work to be able to give you an answer. The behavior you're describing is in-line with what we're seeing too, though. Count yourself lucky!
