DDOS Update?

Post#1 » Sat Oct 03, 2026 7:45 pm

https://octowow-status.shunrai.workers.dev/

According to the server status we've been down most of the day from last night. I'm not upset - I get these DDOS attacks are still happening. I actually think the situation has improved from when the attacks first began. Just wanted to inquire if there's been any communication from the devs. Thanks!

you act like you are the only person to want updates and that by making 100th thread about ddos will make any difference.

the server status vary from people to people based on IP and location, few weeks ago i didnt have problems playing, now my IP is banned because they think im ddoser, so i can only play with VPN. The server is running ok most of the times, but theres a problem with login server which is down. Half people can play normally, half people cant login. Once you login, you can probably play normally. It takes many tries and changing VPN to successfully get into server, where most of people in the game will tell you that they have no problems. Only solution is to change VPN servers (countries/locations), and just trying to login all the time.

Damn, I was under the impression the DDoS would be fixed once we hit 100 threads. Are you telling me this post was all for nothing? /s

In all seriousness, I was just asking for an update after the server was down for an unusually extended period of time...it's really no big deal.

dont worry it's not you, the attack was completely unnecessary. the paragraph after that explains why the server status in that link is not indicative of actual uptime was all that's needed. no need to be hostile

This website is very clearly wrong. It shows offline for times that I have been playing just fine.

Even the "server online" alert lags behind by tens of minutes.

When the DDOS were still strong, 2 weeks ago, I tried the 'server online' alert, and it alerted me after 20 minutes of me already playing the game.

For a lot of people, it isn't, because personally, I haven't been able to connect to the server for two days.
