2018/08/08 - DDoS Attack!

I am also experiencing disconnects very often. None of my clients have remained stable.

if you donā€™t want too pay for a vpn service you can use a Free one, though i have no idea how sable it is for its been a while since i used it. but back when i lost connection every 10 mins i personally used softether vpn . (it is only a suggestion)

Still no issue here in Australia

(edit) connected too EU and ā€˜lo and beholdā€™ loss of connection almost instantly ā€¦

$%^&())(&^%
Iā€™m being D/Cā€™d almost every 30 seconds no matter which account I try to run on which computer. This has been going on for hours now.

And I sincerely doubt the problem is on my end as nothing has changed on my computers and yesterday I was able to play all day on multiple accounts with no problem what so ever.

And when I try to log back in, the launcher gives me the ā€œCould not auto-refresh tokenā€ error message. Close the launcher and re-open it and log it and if Iā€™m lucky, I may get 30 seconds of play before the client freezes and then I get the ā€œsocket closedā€ message.

Again.

Funny though, the launcher says that almost 15,000 other people arenā€™t having a problem. Maybe itā€™s just those of us in S.E. Asian time zones ?

i am having connection stability issues as well

Constant DCā€™s, could not autoreshresh token. Whatā€™s going on??? Can i hear any explanations???

Yer i keep getting DCed every 10 mins or less :frowning:

It is possible that with NCPL docking up and evading fights Goons were looking for additional challenge and therefore decided to DDOS their own communication servers and the EVE cluster?

Bad times. All these Socket Closed errors. Looks like Iā€™m not playing this morning then.

Had a few socket closed disconnect on my alt, but nothing on my mainā€¦itā€™s all fubar.

Socket closed. Eve is dead. finally!

And socket closedā€¦ AGAIN :frowning:

this EVE spoiled!

CCP are you going to do something about it?? You have this DDoS attacks since a few months and is it how this game will look now? It is no point to play this game anymoreā€¦

Socket close 6 times after a few minutes. When connected everything is too sluggish to play safely. Tried to watch an in-game training video but it kept stammering and stuttering, pausing mid-word. Tried to write a bug report, very slow going. Then got DCā€™d before I could hit send. I hope this info helps you solve the problems.

Socket close 5 times after a 1 hour!

Is running Abyss sites safe?

not recommend it if you also have the DCā€™s. CCP wont return lost goods

SoftEther is free, open-source VPN software with many volunteers providing their own free VPN servers all over the planet and to allow one to reroute traffic.

One can see the intensity of DDoS attacks here on this map (also live), and we have increased DDoS attacks planet-wide since September last year and no end in sight.
