Playstation Network's DDos last 2 months, just saying...

That’s not what I want to hear 😩

[DannyAb 44]

Yeah

[Leathium 1,415]

I just find it ridiculous someone would pay money to DDoS 3dxchat, like what a lifeless troll, they could ddos pornhub and make it to the news, but 3dx is NOT that popular to even bother with it.

We don't really know whats going on, of course, so it's all speculation, but in general....

1. it's much easier to launch a sophisticated DDOS attack these days for relatively little cryptocurrency and you don't don't have to know shit

2. 3dx seems to have increased it's visibility lately from from what I have seen

Why does everyone think badly?
don't forget, this game is under development ! adverse processes may occur !
I saw it and the GTA 5 game servers had 4-5 days of trouble! big game company !!
In addition, KONAMI company football game servers had a problem for 1 week.
and may experience problems in similar companies !
too early to think badly, we must wait ! we should wait for the developers' explanations

howcome we are comparing games with hundreds of thousands of players to this... home project that works and looks like an early beta at the very best...? This game needs improvement all over the place and the servers obviously are not good either.

This game is under development? That's a huge understatement. 

So we can't put some indie game dev, and his spare time project side by side with Blizzard, Konami or Rockstar Games

hmmm not sure its a DDOS attack. DDOS attacks programs are not able to shut off an IP adress for days. only some hours max.

i think they messed up something in their server, and telling us its a DDOS 😁😁

 (Also, Lisa would not have mentioned remboursement in the discord, if she expect server to be down for only short time^^)

or maybe they didn't pay the last electricity bill

It is not expensive or particularly difficult to DDoS a smaller site. Somebody probably just sent a few bitcoin to some hacker who set a script running that goes out to thousands of infected PCs and then starts hammering 3DX with requests and bringing it to its knees. Could be some disgruntled former member, a shady competitor, or just some random who noticed a weakness and exploited it just because they can for shits and giggles. Some people just like to watch the world burn.

Just to add my thoughts at this moment.

Regardless of what is going on, for sure Gizmo and co want it up as soon as is possible. It's quite likely causing them much stress..... yes many of us are frustrated and understandably so (me included) but I imagine their morale has taken a big hit and I cant imagine seeing so much negativity is helping.

They need support especially if they are a small team regardless of how we feel. We all know high morale equals better results too!!

Same reason you are.

Although I'm not playing at the moment, am I?

Still I had to point out the fact that you comparing this indie dev to big publishers which have billions in their pockets, an army of shareholders and investors makes no sense.

With them you do have some guarantee about quality and service because they are not going down that easilly.

But 3dxchat is nothing like that. Everything is based on "he said" "she said" and some announcement from a dev now and then.

Again..and in the weekend..😐

"How much costs a DDoS attack service? Kaspersky Lab published an analysis on the cost of a DDoS attack and services available in the black markets.

The DDoS attacks continue to be a profitable business in the cyber criminal underground. Powering a DDoS attack against an organization is even cheaper, running an attack can cost as little as $7 an hour, while a targeted DDoS against a company can cost up to thousands or millions of dollars.

Kaspersky Lab has published an interesting analysis on the cost of DDoS attacks. The experts estimated that the cost to power a DDoS attack using a cloud-based botnet of 1,000 desktops is about $7 per hour. A DDoS attack service typically goes for $25 an hour, this means that the expected profit for crooks is around $25-$7=$18 per hour.

Prices are highly variable, a DDoS attack can cost from $5 for a 300-second attack to $400 for 24 hours.

“This means the actual cost of an attack using a botnet of 1000 workstations can amount to $7 per hour. The asking prices for the services we managed to find were, on average, $25 per hour, meaning the cybercriminals organizing DDoS attack are making a profit of about $18 for every hour of an attack.” reads the analysis published by Kaspersky.

It is easy for criminals to pay for a DDoS attack service available in one of the numerous black markets."

So this is quite cheap and doable by everyone who like to do this kind of shit.

Well currently it's not here. We are just chatting about it on the forums.

I'm just saying you don't have a single guarantee for anything. Nor this game ever developed in any meaningful way in years. I saw modders doing more work in their spare time, when the 32bit client was around than the actual devs did, until they simply made modding near impossible. 

So no, don't compare this to actual big players in game publishing. We take everything with a pinch of salt based of what *he said*  or *she said*. Which is the only official source. And there were many things he said/she said that were just probably a bait and never got realised.

So your only realistic approach to this would be "wait and see" and meantime believe anything you chose to believe.

Şu anda burada değil. Biz sadece forumlarda bunun hakkında sohbet ediyoruz.

Sadece hiçbir şey için tek bir garantiniz olmadığını söylüyorum. Ne de bu oyun yıllar içinde anlamlı bir şekilde gelişmedi. 32bit istemcinin gerçek geliştiricilerden daha fazla olduğu zamanlarda boş zamanlarında daha fazla iş yaptığını gördüm. 

Yani hayır, bunu oyun yayıncılığındaki gerçek büyük oyuncularla karşılaştırmayın. Her şeyi * söylediği * veya * söylediği * şeye dayanarak bir tutam tuzla alıyoruz. Hangi tek resmi kaynaktır. Ve söylediği birçok şey vardı / muhtemelen bir yem olduğunu ve asla gerçekleşmediğini söyledi.

Dolayısıyla, buna tek gerçekçi yaklaşımınız "bekle ve gör" olacaktır ve bu arada inanmayı seçtiğiniz herhangi bir şeye inanırsınız. 

i still wonder why you played this game?

Same reason you are. 

But when you compare Rockstar games to a small time indie dev, it's like you are comparing some lazy masturbation on a bored afternoon to a a service given by 5 star hooker triplets visiting you. It's not the same thing. Still it's ok to have both. Just you can't realistically compare them
