Booted (Socked Closed) three times in the last 10 minutes... as usual, after any amount of "patches" on a 3rd-rate launcher cobbled together from someone's notes on a bar napkin...

Its not internet routing issues. Its definitely a DDOS attack 11k outa 12k players going down isn't internet issues. Also last times we had DDOs the login screen goes from online to unknown. (if server is up can be bypassed with bin/exefile)

Not a DDOS or CCP would have said so on their twitter page.

This is what they currently have up.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist but here's what I imagine is going on, somewhere in London:

A group of Chinese "hackers" (actually working for the military) unplugged the UK's internet from the NSA switch box and plugged it into their own, to route traffic to Chinese servers hosted in Russia via a relay on the moon. On discovering this GCHQ sent someone to unplug the Chinese military's connection and plug it back into the NSAs. Unfortunately he will be discovered packed into a small sports bag in a few weeks time.

Coincidentally the terror attack threat has been increased to "severe" here in the UK, to coincide with the defection of an MP from the governing party to another party.

I'm not at all cynical.

Correction what I meant to say is not a routing issue on players end. it may be their isp/connection but certainly not mine.

I can surf the Net just fine... and my ISP is as giddy as a teenage girl in a mall with daddy's platinum card.... but the game server is choking on it's own vomit.... again. Evil
