Server Disconnects, did I miss the thread already? All Week really?

This week I think was at least the fourth time raid had to be truncated for my team. Unfortunately I don't have any perspective on other games or services, and it isn't clear whether SE can do anything to help solve it. Americans in the South and East seemed hardest hit (though I'm southeast of the US and wasn't).

Regardless, even if it isn't SE's thing to fix, it doubtlessly is their problem to panic over and try to work around. I wonder how much money is going to be lost because of it.

Playing WoW, D3, Tera, even Final Fantasy XI - haven't had any issues with lag or d/cing with those games and services but on XIV it become nearly unplayable for me now. Logging in tonight I got d/c right on the loading in screen. Logged back in and not 10 mins in got 90k.

Aren't the FF XI servers in Tokyo?

That's some fortitude right there.

If the DDoS is going after FFXIV servers though it wouldn't hit those other games necessarily. Also your location helps, I am in the far northwest and didn't start getting git hard till yesterday while others started getting hit days ago. They're swamping different nodes that you might not route through to access other things.
