DDoS Attacks Confirmed

[Asphexius]

Pretty easy to blame a third party, seems like an easy out to me. Haven't seen the typical twitter brags that usually come with an attack on this scale, near continuous for 5 days against the infrastructure of a major online network business? Far more popular games have in the past been hit for far less of a period of time. The network issues like all the 90002 disconnects have been happening even at extremely off peak times during this period. In addition, I find it a bit suspect since their original story was,'so sorry, please try again later, working as intended'. Sure its possible, but either way as a business having a series of roadblocks keeping your customers from a satisfactory experience the ball is still in their court to resolve these issues and do right with their player base. In all likelihood sure there was probably some DDoSing, but I continue to doubt that is the sole reason for this bad launch.
