Apologies for the server disruptions yesterday

Postby Matt-Chicago » Tue Dec 21, 2010 2:10 pm

As many of you may know, our servers came under a sustained attack yesterday.
This led to a very frustrating situation of the server crashing over and over.

We believe we have fixed the problem and hope the attacks are finished for good.

What are the chances of getting a server that has a better ping for people living on the east coast, say like Virginia? :whistling:

Yes we do, the Hero Assault Server.

Jedi Battle Arena is in Dallas though. Sorry.

If resetting the server is the best Drai can do, then his ultimatum was sub-par.

That is stuff they used to do back in year 1 to -)G(- servers. They used to create false users on the server to make it appear full and then take it down. Old news.

lol I have that one. The funnier one, though, is blowing up TS with fakes that all make their own channels and fill them

Speculatively speaking, what are the chances JBA might join Hero Assault server in it's cozy hosting space? Or maybe find a home in a nice Chicago hosting space? Speculatively speaking of course. :whistling:

I can't imagine it being moved. I am from Hawaii, and it's hard enough hitting people with my pingtimes to various servers - it being moved to the East coast would just make gameplay worse for people like me and those on the West Coast. It's somewhat acceptable for my ping to be higher to the HA server because of the nature of the way HA is played (though I can't duel for crap since I don't have 50 ping like the "pros" do) but having an East Coast server would hurt the West players also.

Granted, I'm screwed either way, gaming for people in Hawaii sucks, but it would suck even more if JBA were to be moved to the East Coast.

How is your speed for game servers hosted in Chicago? Normally I see Dallas hosting centers when trying to tie in Latin American players.
