Question about early access and stuff.

[Andevom]

DDOS has been going on for a few weeks now. Constant issues for people in central europe area, constant 90002 disconnects, or 90006, or lobby error 2002, things like that. For 2 weeks now.

Oh yes, that is very true. But Crystal, where the OP's character is from, hasn't been hit with those. They are more likely now than ever to be spreading to all data centers, regardless of location.

DDOS that has yet to be proven, please don't scaremonger people because when this kind of thing happens, everyone will feel the effects (not just Central Europe)!

Please enlighten me on why everyone I know from central/eastern europe has been getting disconnected for the past 2 weeks with constant 90002 or 90006 to fit in well with lobby error 2002 and that issue only exists on FF14 and nowhere else.

Do tell, by all means.

With new patch system for PS, it takes longer to patch game, than download it, so i hope ppl with slow connections have enough time; at least for me it takes like an hr to patch a file that took 5sec to download

In this case explain to me why many players I know (including myself) in Western Europe don't suffer from all this issues you claim Central/Easterners keep having. So we have the occasion DC and errors yeah sure, but nothing as frequently as what you are saying, something doesn't add up. Maybe your internet provider (and others) has some connection to the issues though like you said it doesn't effect other games, but feel free to enlighten why other countries are not getting so many issues. I'll wait....

So...these connection issues are only happening for the past 2 weeks. Specifically on FF14. And if we ping the servers when we disconnect it tends to mess up in the same place.

You are aware that Eastern Europe and Central Europe goes through different places to reach the server hub as opposed to Western Europe yes?

The end point is the server, the data however doesn't magically teleport into the servers.

And the explanation behind them could be absolutely anything, it doesn't mean it's DDOS. When SB was released and all those DDOS attacks happened to the NA centre (which I was on at the time), it effected players all over the world regardless of which server hub it was. Those types of attacks aren't going to differentiate what country/location/hub you are in because it's target is the game itself through any means which it can be done, hence why I'm sceptical everytime you say it's DDOS.

I mentioned a link in another thread a while back where you posted (perhaps you missed it?) where some German players were having many of the issues you were mentioning and they made a ticket here to tech. It wasn't DDOS per say but supposedly there were some routing issues causing the problem, though I don't know if they ever resolved it.
