Icykill_ Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 How could Bioware not know? They are owned by EA... EA own Bio the same way as Volkswagen own Porsch. They share some services/infrastructure and platforms, as well as having oversight from upper management. But the people at the mid management lvl will rarely communicate with each other. So unless someone at EA thinks to inform Bioware, then Bioware won't know what's happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icykill_ Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 I haven't had any issues since my last post, so hopefully it's over currently it's 5:10 AM PDT We'll have to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonarkracus Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 (edited) There is a DDoS being conducted by some children calling themselves PoodleCorp. They are targeting Blizzard's Warcraft Expansion launch and also EA's Battlefield 1 Beta. Swtor has just been caught in the crossfire because Battlefield is probably located in the same EA server farm. The Bioware guys probably don't even realise this is going on because their servers aren't actually being attacked. I know it's no excuse, they really should be monitoring what is going on, but it's possible that EA look after that side of things and they haven't communicated the issues with Bioware. i just got done playing the battlefield 1 beta and had absolutely no issues. i played for about 2 hours.

Nebdar Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 So i got response from CS N0-B0 has informed me that you are experiencing crashes and severe server lag. After reviewing this case I have investigated our sever stability throughout the day and I have been able to see some flooding to our servers which would indeed cause these server issues. The development team have been working hard to get this fixed and all this traffic has now been migrated as such the server stability should now be corrected, please try and play again. I can play on Red Eclipse now and after about 30 min of the most recent crashes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dev Post EricMusco Posted August 31, 2016 Dev Post Share Posted August 31, 2016 Hey folks, I can confirm that there was an EA Service issue last night which impacted SWTOR. At this time all of these issues have been resolved and you should be able to properly connect to all servers. I do apologize that this was not communicated sooner. Again, all issues should now be resolved. Thanks everyone. -eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVERYTIME stuff like that happens on the european server it's their network that's causing lags and package loss Or simply get a new Servercentre in some other place, where you don't have to use their crappy network. Like Frankfurt. PS: Still Lags like hell on Vanjervalis Chain. Haven't been DC'ed yet, but my normally 50ms ping is now somewhere around 100 spiking to 8k+ every 10 seconds.

TaitWatson Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 (edited) Hey everyone, In order to address the ongoing connectivity issues with the European datacenter we need to make a change, and all services that utilize this connection will be temporarily impacted. At 11AM CDT (5PM BST), there will be a short window (about 10 minutes) of high packet loss and possible connection loss if you're currently connected to a European server. Once the window is over, the connection issues should be resolved, and we will continue to monitor the situation. Thank you for your patience! -Tait Edited August 31, 2016 by TaitWatson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
