Yeah crystal is over 1k now (Zalara)

Primal went down too.

Yup, me too! Started at 707 in a queue. I thought it was a joke.

just got the notification in the companion app, looks like the NA data centers are being DDoSed

The russians DDoSed the NA servers cause they are jelly they can't get on.

It was posted on the Japanse forums that the servers are under a Ddos attack and that North American servers are going to be affected until they figure out where its coming from and how to stop it, and will update us later (?) Google translated the post from here:

https://tinyurl.com/ddos-ffxiv (The japanese link looked gross since it wont post it with the japanese letters so i made it a tiny url)

But translated it is:

Noc_JP:
Notice of network failure due to DDoS attack (8/3)



Currently, we have confirmed that network failures are occurring due to DDoS attacks, and the following situations may occur due to this impact.



We are taking countermeasures while confirming the attack method, so we will inform you again as soon as there is any progress in the situation.


Record


Date: August 3, 2022 (Wednesday) from around 8:58



Impact:

・You may be disconnected from worlds located in the North American data center.

・It may be difficult to log in to worlds located in the North American data center.

・It may be difficult to connect to the North American data center and send and receive data.


Target: Customers using FINAL FANTASY XIV

Yeah I figured there was a DDoS going on. Was running Qarn when all of a sudden my entire group DC'd, then I went to go get ice cream and there was a queue of 700.

Looks like it's okay now, queued to Jenova was 20.

They should totally just discontinue all non-Japanese servers at this point and have FFXIV just be Japan Only. They clearly only care for their home country where it doesnt take as long to give out information in their native language.

It's almost like it's faster for a Japanese company to push out a forum post in their native language, before it gets translated, checked, and posted by their localization teams. The English forum post went up 19 minutes after the JP one.

It's almost like there was a post on the lodestone 2 hours ago.

We were on the final boss of Orbonne Monastery. The game lagged for like 30 seconds, then it went back and everyone was DC'd and dead on the floor XD

I honestly wish they did limit XIV to JP only like they did with DQX. :/
