It would suck if the only games that succeed aren't those with likeable content but those that can deal with DDOS attacks. Marketing slogan would be something like "You might not like what we provide but we can dependably provide it." Total yuck.

I am curious to know what sort of changes they made regarding pilgrim's traverse that is meant to mitigate the disconnects. As far as I've seen it will still result in a KO regardless.
The ddossing this expansion is beyond bad.
Where is the compensation for game time lost?
White knights, please don't sit up here and talk about how xyz big corp gets ddossed too. We are playing a sub for 1 month of game time, that ticks on a clock even if you don't pay.
If FF is getting dossed the entire time, we need to be comepnsated for that lost time.
Downplaying the issue is not it. If people can be outraged by other stuff, you need to be as outraged about not being able to play at all.


Having the FT clear achievement count increase to 100 compared to BA and DRS's 10 is one thing but when you allow a DDOS to go on for more than a week(and probably will last even longer due to negligence) it especially becomes annoying to have a potential clear count reduced by 1 every few hours. Developers please don't aim for a record of 2 weeks of not doing anything about this.
It's gotten out of control. I had the day off today, tried logging in this morning, DDOS. Came back this evening, tried to log in again, made it 90 seconds into a raid roulette before another DDOS. I've been playing MMOs since SWTOR launched when I was kid, I have never seen a game struggle with constant DDOS the way XIV does. Either this game is uniquely targeted by bad actors or SE is just incompetent compared to every other MMO company out there.



Got 5 in the past hour. It is getting worse and no word from SE...there was hope they would deal with this with today's patch but no. The game is essentially unplayable atm.

The more they ignore us, the more players are eventually just going to leave before the December patch even hits. Sorry but unrestricted glamour is not going to mean anything if you can't even play the game.
Totally agree. I've already had a couple guildmates unsub because this was the final straw.
I beat the 100 floor of POTD solo a few days ago. I think Deep Dungeons are turning into a personal favorite piece of content of mine. It's also really evergreen and rewarding.
These DDOS's are extra depressing as it makes climbing the whole mountain for any of them just too risky.
