2020/01/27 & 28 - TQ under DDoS

It is and has been difficult to play the game. It has been long enough imo for that to have been taken care of. Attacking people who regularly pay (on multiple accounts?) for daring to mention while definitely typical eve online forums, which is apparently sanctioned, is not good for the game. They are, after all, choosing a way other than sending in a ticket, which ccp requested.

So if you send in a ticket and avoid getting forum bashed, you make ccp unhappy. Seems message is that if you have a legitimate issue with the game performance, however rare you might post or send a ticket in, it is at personal cost to you.

That was not directed at you JediTruth, just the fact I so rarely post resulted in your name being unintentionally the one this reply shows .

yep its all CCPs fault, not like we havent had DDOS issues over the past 7 years or anything at all.

Is there another DDoS going on again ?

People are reporting MWD not turning on lag spikes and rubber banding in game. Similar to what you get before a node goes tits up and crashes.

havent been able to log the last hour

Installed a VPN, connected to UK with it. All is good!

No.

It isn’t attacking it.

It is a problem being caused by the American company that

You know what, just scroll up.

Also can not log in at all and I am in the UK :frowning: so something has changed somewhere.

I trust CCP are doing all they can to resolve this issue and I am happy to be patient. The only problem I have is the lack of updates from CCP. All they’d have to do is put a post on their Facebook page advising players that this is an ongoing problem. As things stand at the moment, I have no idea what’s going on as the client has 19k players online yet I cannot login at all. I hope they intend on reimbursing the Omega time lost as I am paying for a product that doesn’t work. That’s now three days lost with no end in sight.

Honestly man, it isn’t. It “was” yes - not going to pretend there have not been several in an annoyingly concentrated time-period because there have been.

That was resolved though. If you scroll up there are a couple of posts that people seem to be overlooking. They detail how it is the American ‘affiliate’ that has the role of “first-line defence” against these attacks for EVE covering the US is at fault. Think of it like getting an illness and your body’s immune system kicks in to fight off the attack. Unfortunately, there are occasions when your immune system doesn’t notice the illness is gone and keeps on fighting - that is what this is.
The current issues you guys are having is the American ‘immune system’ still producing antibodies to fight an attack no longer happening and it is clogging everything up.

Day 4 of unable to play the game because of login or lag issues…Submitted a ticket, was told they’re working on it and to check the eve news page for updates on any compensation.

It is not their job to fix a problem that is not happening.

Microsoft are not going to post updates about how Apple are doing things because it is nothing to do with them, so why do you feel it is different here?

Same, Day 4 of highly unstable gameplay or simply cant login at all.

I had got grounded doing abyssals and the very nature of them means that any instability in the game servers means its not worth even attempting.

after 3 days of not being able to connect I installed a vpn and connected via the uk and now I can log in with no lag.
it seems my issue was connecting through amazon servers in Singapore. the trace route would be stuck at that point.

edit: if I turn of the vpn I cannot connect again

Wait, so you’re saying there is no problem?

He doesn’t know what he’s say, obviously there is still a problem that is affecting eve players only.

Maybe he can get a job as the next Baghdad Bob?

At the moment I´m unable to connect. Although the server displays as online. With 21K players online.

Thank you.

its not a problem with the eve server its a problem with how you connect.
if I use a vpn connected to the uk I can log in with no lag. (I live in Indonesia)

Whatever the cause, it’s day 4 and I can’t even get in at all now despite trying the last two and half hours. Yes, I am east coast USA.

To those saying go via the UK, i actually am in the UK and i cant connect, so do i have to get a VPN to spoof my own country’s IP to get in now?

That seems silly
