And then the server went boom.

gradii · August 2016

Everyone's screaming doom, The server just went boom. Boom boom server went boom.

xacchaeus · August 2016

lordwolfy · August 2016

Someone forgot to feed the hamster that powers the whole place I am thinking.

zemmax · August 2016

Who spilt the coffee this time?

guyhumual · August 2016

Ah, glad I'm not alone

qawsada · August 2016

It's effecting Neverwinter Online, too

lordwolfy · August 2016

Looks like its the same for all of Cryptic's games. NWO launcher has the same issue. Someone forgot to pay the bills again...

spinnytop · August 2016

It was me, I ran into Cryptic HQ and kicked over the server for lulz :3c

Spinny...you have got to get a better hobby than knocking over companies servers...even if its a server powered by 24 hamsters all chasing after pellets on strings. Think of the mess you made. Go to the corner! :P

Found the problem.

lordwolfy · August 2016

Now where is that community manger who can tell the devs that their game is borked up. Do we even have a community manager anymore?

Well the good news is, Kaiserin was logged in when this happened.

thistleswift1 · August 2016

*runs about in circles* the sky iz falling! the sky iz falling!

lordwolfy · August 2016

Figures, CO cant keep anyone with them...you would think that someone would sit down and look at whats going on with this game.

Anyway, back on topic. HEY!! Whoever is running CO and watching the servers...it seems we have a blackout.

Hmm...NWO forums say that its because of a DDOS attack on the cryptic servers. Friend of mine just let me know about it.

There was a slowdown indicative of a DDOS just before the crash, so it seems likely.

moira66 · August 2016

Boy this attack MUST have been a doozy! Still down last time i checked. :C

codewar65 · August 2016

Probably some NW script kiddy got butthurt because his lockbox didn't give him the trinket he wanted.
I wish Cryptic would run their games on separate servers so this wouldn't take down the game trinity.

moira66 · August 2016

I have a sneaking suspicion i may know a few of the individuals involved in said attack. At least by there chat names. Pfft. Sad.

xoriandruid · August 2016

xorian! Glad to see you.

rebornmonster79 · August 2016

Or maybe it was something else just beginning. Maye the end really is nigh.

rebornmonster79 · August 2016

Also why would anyone attack a gaming services seems like waste of one's talents when are more lucrative targets in the hacking game.

Also guy folks keep referencing did this in the past. How do you know they served jailtime at all or were even caught. By sound of it last time was simple script being run which is what these things usually are. But most of time they are smokescreen for other illicit behavior.

rebornmonster79 · August 2016

Or maybe they saying it happened because of their own server hardware frailities. One can assume if you never update such things they malfunction or worse.

Chat is down.

Yea I noticed that, if you check your friends list there is nothing there even offline friends, its like your on single player mode, my guess is the are not done yet, might be better to wait.

lordwolfy · August 2016

Ehh still is down...now it wont even connect. Going to call it a night on this one and see if they can have it done tomorrow.

Im not sure whats going on here but people try really hard to be overly clever in the community, there is reading between the lines and there is reading between your lines. Im not saying that is the case but maybe it is.

And then the server went boom.
