nodes nor servers it affect the games still sadly that's also the other point I wouldn't be paying a monthly sub I wouldn't care much but I do so I care you also have to understand that and I mostly rant too.

have to understand to that it is part of there job still that people like it or not ok I do understand it cannot be like a 100% protection and people on console cannot fight those back either and Xbox player have to pay a monthly sub for both to be able to play too so node or not it is a problem no matter what

It is a problem, but you're complaining to the wrong people. Just like the cinema can't do anything about traffic, Square Enix can't do anything about American internet service providers.

From what I understand, it's a Spectrum node, right? Probably them.

It's not Spectrum. It's Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT).

NTT is a Japanese telecommunications company, and it is why SE picked them, even in NA, to be their ISP for FFXIV.

Because its a Japanese company, SE will never hold them accountable for their trash service and garbage nodes, so they blame others instead.

it isn't tho sadly because if my internet provider would be attacked I wouldn't even be able to relog in at all nor playing anything else to and nothing die at all other then 14 so it's server wise so stop saying it's ony end it isn't at all or everyone else ends

If it was server-wise, *everyone* would be forced out of the world you're on, and that's not happening. People have literally tracked where this attack occurs, and it's not on Square Enix's end. Please, if you're going to complain about this, research what is actually happening here, so that your complaints go to the correct party.

you seem to misunderstand. You do see that SE themselves post they have problems with DDOs right ? doesn't matter if its their stuff directly or not, they have to care for it period. If they talk to company's responsible for it or do something themselves is none of our businesses. You can defend them all day if you want but even they themselves say they have issues... Please share the tracks of this people who can accurately track where what appears and is not 100% on SEs end. Even if its a problem with the node its SE who have to work out something with them in the end its their deal with whoever.

Besides THIS is the correct party for complains what the heck. since when its a customers businnes to chase what might be the issue of the guys who they are paying. In the end of day the result is stuff isnt working for which people pay hard earned money get this into your head. But feel free to share your stuff in here and show all of us where the problem is. I can tell you if 14 is the only thing have problems with SE posting like every second day they had problems, then its not on users side. So if its an attack to the nodes or the network provider or whatever the heck you think it is, it will still be a SE problem to solve. Its their service which they have to maintain.

In the end i dont care at all i dont play on NA / JP i have no issues i just hate it when people think they can come in here type its not SE problem even if it is. white knighting for them will bring you nowhere. Feel free to prove me wrong show me how SE prevents this how good their Load balancers working how everything is redundant and its clearly out of their hand. I mean i know they have rate limiter which is fine but whats with the rest how modern is this stuff. Do they have CDN ? Are the nodes protected ? who knows oh yeah the small indie company which have to deal with it. Is there any monitoring ? there are so many ways to prepare for stuff like that. share to us how all of that is set and SE talking and trying to solve it somehow with whoever if you know that so well.
