Good to see you monitoring the forums, but you still never answered my question about why a Ddos attack on the NA servers would cause problems on the EU servers? You seem to have missed this question during your monitoring

Haroeris✭✭✭The server response to the DDOS this weekend, while still frustrating in the moment, was faster than with previous DDOS's in past months, so the actual downtime remained low (a couple minutes instead of hours). So a sincere thank you to the team for that improvement, and I hope you can continue to quicken the response even better moving forward.
FWIW, I also had intermittent problems with the PTS at the same time, so it was not exclusive to LiveEdited by Haroeris on January 17, 2017 10:46PMPC-NA since 2015, cp1800+0 -

Pangnirtung✭✭✭✭✭Loading screen times have definitely increased over the past couple of days. What's with that?0

AlexDresden87✭✭✭Despite your post regarding the weekend, this issue is still present. And I would like to note that having all the threads concerning todays server issue closed without any consideration on our frustrations is disrespectful. We are paying for services in this game and that makes us paying customers. So when will this be resolved and not be a constant annoyance?4 -

Most of them would have weekends off and only leaving the tech guys to deal with it , can't expect a community manager to work 7 days a week.It's pretty *** poor to see this post days after it happened.
Why not identify which you guys did and started working on it which you did.
How about taking 1 minute ( 60 seconds ) to post this thread while these issues occur.
Seems like pretty bad management to me.
Mate, an MMORPG with thousands of players... over a weekend were experiencing issues.
It would of taken a 30 second post from staff to say, HEY there is an issue we are looking into it.
This way, those players could of been like yep well there's an issue thats been announced on forums so how about we call it there for tonight. "In vMOL wondering why the servers are lagging"
See my meaning?
If I can pick up a phone as the IT guy on a weekend when I normally work mon-day and huge MULTI MILLION corp can make a 30 second forum post.

AlexDresden87✭✭✭I posted a ticket for the issue myself but they asked for a copy of my Game Consultant. WTH. This isn't my game that is all thats affected.
And It happened yet again. Can't rely on much here or in tech support.Edited by AlexDresden87 on January 18, 2017 5:38AM0 -

✭✭✭✭✭This is starting to become just an excuse now, real or not. It's convenient and easy blaming.
I agree, for two reasons.- DDoS attacks are typically sustained attacks. Not something that lasts for 20s, stops, and then starts up again an hour or two later.
- They should disrupt all communication between the server and client. Yet zone and guild chat kept working while in-world stuff--ability usage, etc.--stopped.

What's probably happening is that ZoS is trying to offload all the junk data brought on by the DDoS attack onto a dummy server (the usual, and as far as I know, only defense against DDoS attacks.), the attackers find out they're being thwarted, change some code, and attack is back on again. Server crashes, ZoS or their security contractors make changes, data gets offloaded to the dummy server again..etc..etc..etc..
This is going to keep happening until either the attackers get bored or are caught."Let's be honest, I... don't always think my decisions through." -Sanguine0 -
