anyone else think that iCQ/Airflow may have been a bit enraged with his bans and decided to pay for some ddosing or something like that?

Yes but be forewarned we have bots.  Although the bots go away when there’s enough real people to push them out.

I am NOT positive......but I think the ATF server is one of the oldest servers for BF42! And some great folks play there when it is active.

Re: Servers being attacked?

You other server hosts need to do whatever aX did, because they seem for the most part stable the last few days while others still struggle.

The problem is sk is not very helpful. Don't expect anything.

  I see them but their pings are all 9999.  Can't connect.  It would appear that the attacker has won.

Re: Servers being attacked?

Same with EA117 desert combat server that is usually populated USA time nights.  Years ago a user called Luna did the same thing to them. I suggest ADMIN here talk to Trench (the main EA117 admin). They figured out a solution. I wont mention it here, in case the asshole hacker is reading this. AX seems to be fine, which would imply to me a user on that server might be doing it.

Re: Servers being attacked?

The server just crashed. Obviously these attacks are made on purpose to get players to go to another server. They always occur at the hours and times when more players come to play.

@Kestrel it is all the major servers... not just SiMPLE so that is clearly not the case. i believe that some disgruntled cheater is behind all this. not sure who though.

Re: Servers being attacked?

It is a small group of cheaters plaguing BF1942 who are behind the DDoS attacks. Someone is flooding BF1942 servers, where these cheaters can't get away with their selfish and disruptive behavior.

Re: Servers being attacked?

thx for the info

how come the ax server seemingly is unaffected ? is it because it isnt being attacked ? or because it has a ddos protection ?

would a ddos protection for the simple server help ? or are the attacks too strong ? or does the simple server have ddos defense already ?

how about something like this :

https://www.worldstream.com/en/solution … protection

even if it possibly could help, it still is a bit expensive. maybe a donation system could be set up

Re: Servers being attacked?

I do not know if aX server was hit by these DDoS attacks. I do know that aX server is hosted in OVH and OVH has a very good DDoS protection by default. WorldStream, unfortunately, seems to have a poor DDoS protection.

Re: Servers being attacked?

Why not talk to sk about it? These attacks will never stop until the game is dead. The same thing happened to BF Vietnam a couple of years ago.

It is better to move to a stronger host now then to wait for everyone to just give up on simple.

I will wait for your PM, because I will help financially.

On another note.. When will the legal actions begin? We can forward this issue to an attorney and begin when you say.
