DDOS Attacks Today

Wish we could better ID who and what.

Damn you Blizzard!
Danskere: PM mig, hvis I har brug for en guild.
I also think Blizzard does not need to attack PoE.

PoE announced 60k users. Blizz laughs at such numbers imo.
PoE is no Rival in market share.


Blizz Fanboys on the other hand ...


Forums are SOOO much fun on patch day!

Casuals play because it's fun, not to achieve any goal unreachable with their resources.
We are playing for the next difficulty, the next keystone, the next item upgrade.
Not to feel better than anyone else.

Maybe some people are THAT malicious. /shrugs

It is more likely to be misguided/r4ging people than 'that' company. I am off to go back to being an addict!
If GGG chickens made an action RPG, what would it be called? Path of Eggxile, a Peck 'n' Slash RPG.
Why was the helmet spluttering? It was a coif.
I dont really know what can be done to help and my suggestion is not a call to arms but if there are tech savvy people playing this game maybe its time to shield up and help protect what we all like and cherish.:)
Again not declaring war on anybody, just saying if anybody knows how to help find out who is behind this and how to help stop and prevent future attacks please if you can and not get in the way of GGG as they try to solve this on their own again only if you can help and dont make a bigger mess. :) thank you
I still cant believe someone would do this, if it actually turns out it was a deliberate attack... some people make me sad :(

Gotta be people mad about the no pants thing.

All the things I want to remember are in the places I'd like to forget.

60k concurrent.IT differes.Go at diablo 3.See the games.Make your assumptions again.
Bye bye desync!
I find it awesome that the launch of PoE was a smashing success. There were so few minor hiccups. Compare that to other semi-recent games where people were basically unable to play for days or more.

The poe team make me very confident that they can actually deliver what they say. When they said they stress tested the servers AND managed to keep them up with a load more than they were expecting, that is good stuff.

I have massive respect for their dev ops team (it's not an easy job). I'm sure they'll think of something to circumvent being ddos'd.

Edit:
As for the 60k thing vs Blizzard's #s, it's not really even an issue. The PoE team said they were preparing for a target, it was exceeded and then it went flawlessly.

Blizzard said the same thing and they failed super hard and continued to fail for days on end.

Scaling to 60k concurrent users vs 250k concurrent users really isn't much of a difference other than they need more of everything.

I admit, I find the notion that Blizzard would be behind the attacks "funny", to say the least, BUT ... that said, whats not funny, is the attacks themselves.

Be it where ever they may be coming from, its definitely a real let down to our community, as on a whole, we have a real special thing going here. Its unfortunate that this kind of thing is, but it is what it is.

GL GGG, hope you squash this one soon.
GGG - Why you no?
