they have offices in other timezones and customer support is manned 24/7, itā€™s not unreasonable.

Anyway, from a fellow developer, keep working hard guys and stay healthy in these times.

That is a mode that lets our developers and testers log in to the Tranquility server and perform various checks and tests on a live server before we open the gates and let everyone log in to EVE.

CCP,

Thank you for the update and the work on reducing the impact. I am looking forward to these DDoS attacks stopping and allowing the players to get back into the game.

They wonā€™t ever stop, there is always someone(s) out there. Either purposely hitting them, or some ā€œscript kiddieā€ running someone elseā€™s tool just for giggles. Best we can hope for is increasing mitigation that recognizes an rejects false traffic, while still allowing real traffic.
