It’s pretty cheeky of them to do this on the first day of the Open beta, along with Warcraft’s new expansion, those servers are already being basically DDoSed by all the gamers connecting, so this is really a case of the straw the broke the camel’s back. IMO doesn’t really show off any robustness of their platform, make them look like weaksauce script-kiddies. ---

Well if you think about it this IS a beta test giving them a taste of launch day server loads. ---

It’s just a bunch of little script kiddies trying to make a name for themselves, but just looking dumb in the process. Anyone can DDoS, I’ll never understand why people think it makes them special. ---

Well, it was commonly assumed that back when BF3 was taking the crown away from the CoD franchise, the BF master server would get DDoSed on any double XP weekend, also coincidentally whenever CoD had a beta, or an event, or a launch. The important thing to remember about that was that it was a DoS attack (not DDoS), which means that they traced the attack back to just one IP address. It was one super server/computer that took down the BF master server 5 years ago over and over, which would lend itself to being well-funded, hence the assumption that Zampella was not-so secretly behind it. This time it’s different, it’s just some kids who want publicity for their product. Have them try and take down a server that’s not already at 99% load capacity LOL. noobs. ---
