Hey folks,

Just wanted to give you a heads-up, we're experiencing attacks on our servers that are preventing players from logging in. These attacks are coming in bursts, so you may be able to stay online for a while, then experience a kick. Our teams are working on stabilizing servers.

Stay tuned, we'll keep you updated.

    You guys need to get new (any?) ddos protections. Guess I'll go play some other game while you guys have fun w/ this.
  • askrayaskray Member Posts: 3,329 Arc User
    Even the best in protection cannot stop a full force attack.... Just as an fyi
    Yes, I'm that Askray@Batbayer in game. Yes, I still play. No, I don't care.

    I just talk to a computer technician he said beef up your fire wall and put server encryption. It will make it harder for them to attack.

    Keep us updated please TT!
    "He shall be my finest warrior, this generic man who was forced upon me.
    Like a badass I shall make him look, and in the furnace of war I shall forge him.
    he shall be of iron will and steely sinew.
    In great armour I shall clad him and with the mightiest weapons he shall be armed.
    He will be untouched by plague or disease; no sickness shall blight him.
    He shall have such tactics, strategies and machines that no foe will best him in battle.
    He is my answer to cryptic logic, he is the Defender of my Romulan Crew.
    He is Tovan Khev... and he shall know no fear."

    STO et al are part of the big boys now being worthy of a DDOS.​​
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    Darklord - either he was trolling you or knows nothing about networking

    So with server issues they should extend the rewards another day.
  • craig76craig76 Member Posts: 775 Arc User
    Upgrade the protections would be a wise decision admirals :)......That would be my Vulcan better half speaking there
    I believe God created the universe, because he knew we wanted to explore. So, he made us a playground...

    B.t.w. welcome back @askray, haven't seen you around for a while or did you just give us the silent treatment... :open_mouth:​​

    why are you wasting time stabilizing the servers?

    Hunt the TRIBBLE who spend 10 USD on the attack instead.
    Don't look silly... Don't call it the "Z-Store/Zen Store"...

    Let me put the rumors to rest: it's definitely still the C-Store (Cryptic Store) It just takes ZEN.

    This only happens every time there is an event, even if it's not a DDOS. The server is not known to be stable on a regular basis

    I can see maybe a one day extention due to factors outside Cryptic's control. They are pretty good at extending events due to outside interference like unexpected downtime.
