DDOS attacks and Network Issues 5/24

[[NSB]sophiemuscat]

i know its not your guys fault, but i was just wondering any chance on S2 offering us some free goodies for the servers going down recently, like sony, all good either way

[j`boon]

So all these games that are not being recorded, or showing up for us..
Will S2 be fixing the problem and having them show up or have we wasted our time winning and for those losing, getting 2nd chances...??
Its one thing i notice there never enough info given on these topics.. such a shame.

[[kthx]KaiOni]

Must be the LoL players.

S2 can't help that some people decided to DDOS the servers can they?

It's just a matter of time, and if you ask me S2 is losing more than you are from this downtime. Use the power of your mind young one, and thee shall figure it out.


To pass time while it's down i'm gonna build a scout portrait on minecraft, i'll post pictures when done.

If anyone's intressted in helping me and has minecraft tell me.

so let's give S2 a break, they're trying there best and hardest we can't ask for more can we? They provide us with an awesome game and the game goes down once a month for like a hour or so.

Imagine the pain the **** LoL players have to deal with, ****ing 20 hour queues and 24/4 downtime.


TL;DR
DEAL WITH IT

Yo, get off your high horse. Not a single person in this thread trashed on S2.

I don't get what this has to do with the servers being down

[[MsMD]LotsofDeaths]

Hey, I was wondering, since I was just in a match and me and my friend disconnected to fix in game VOIP lag, when we tried to reconnect we got the error messages.

Are we going to lose MMR for this? This match was even, and I dislike losing MMR and getting a leave when I haven't done anything wrong...

We've been aware of the attack for about 6 hours, the majority of the time more information is not provided because it is not available yet. If the stat submission fails and doesn't show up within several hours there is a good chance it is not going to be recovered.

[S2]Toolz when can we expect the servers to be up again? im sick so i have nothing to do but game and watch tv. and since i've watched everything on tv i wanna game

The servers, just like your account authenticate with the master servers, if they aren't authenticating then they aren't up.

I figured as much, but thanks for confirming.

Good luck trying to fix things. Stupid DDoS attacks are pissing me off.

[[DURP]Silverius]

Thanks for quick answer and information about the problem.

But this is happening to often.

And when you solve it, it will probably be laggy again and alot of "small issues for some players"

Really sad S2 that this keep happening you.

I even put alot money to this game but now it's over.

Hope for dota2 to come soon.

Alot of money... That means you must have all the premium skins and the John St John voicepack. CAN I HAS ACCOUNT NOW YOU'RE GOING!? I'm just a poor 5 year old and since you won't be using it anymore... Right?

[Warzzo]

Im just sayin' dawg, the ones that messes with s2 will eat their lunch to breakfast!

[awaiken]

Toolz, do you have any idea who's doing this? It'd be nice to have some sort of a clue towards who's behind the bloody attacks. Understandably, you probably don't want to shed much light on the issue as people will go pointing fingers, but a response would be nice. Cheers.

[[CNTX]HIGHFLY]

S2, why dont you simply protect yourself against DDoS attacks? there are a lot of things u can do!

[MohJ]

So can't you guys just reason with the DDoS attackers and be done with it?
