5AM pacific time: most SE's online game go down...

[Jei]

Wondering if anyone still playing around this time. On Titan everyone got a series of R0 and after 30 minutes of lagging I got disconnected from the server. Before I got dropped I was talking to my japanese PT and look like not only FFXI is having problem but also FMO, EQ2 japan, all went down at the same time disconnecting everyone.

Wonder if it's a network failure or yet another attack...

Yea same happened to me it sucks, now i can only get to the notifying lobby of character selection bit, 2more things till i get on but most of the time theres a transsmission error with lobby. This sucks.

Edit: How long would it take to get their servers back up if this wasnt an attack?

Yet another DDos attack so much for a good day off

Could not connect the lobby server despite numerous attempts around 6:30am PDT. I hope everything is back to normal by this afternoon.

I'm sure they could turn their attacks into ones that threaten real lives.

it was only down for about 30 mins. assuming it happens once a month (i dont even think they have that much unplanned downtime) that's still >99.9% uptime which is pretty damn good

30 minutes of constant R0 yes. But friends I know had problem logging in for the next 3 hours.

i got kicked and couldn't login for 30 mins. after that (about 5:30 am PST) it was fine
