except its not? DDoS is Distributed Denial of Service. And a DDoS attack will do exactly this. if it was people hammering the servers cuz playing, then the weekend would have been broken. it wasn't.They say it's a "DDoS Attack" but it's not, it may actually be a DDoS but no one is attacking them, they're just using that for a BS excuse for their poor infrastructure and lack of planning for the amount of players accessing the servers.
DDoS = Dynamic Denial of Service.
It doesn't have to be a malicious attack though. Just the pure numbers of people like additional adults being off for the Holiday could pad the issue some. But who knows. It's all speculation anyways. The last time they announced a maintenance, roughly around the same time frame they "experienced" a "DDoS Attack". I just think it's the amount of people honestly.
