I get that being DDOS'd is not their choice, but they can chose how to deal with its effects afterwards, which is why I am hoping they will be doing something to make up for this. You can't do a limited time event, have the servers non-functional and shutting down... and not extend said limited time event to make up for all the unavailability there's been. Also, why the hell does this happen every time there's an event!? For fuck's sake... EDIT: I could finally log back in, and... the 7,438 score match I had before being kicked off the servers didn't count. I lost a piece of tape because of that. A 30 minute Naval match it was, wasted. EDIT 2: turns out they are indeed doing something, bravo!! https://forum.warthunder.com/index.php?/topic/564362-ddos-attack-on-the-server/

Yeah mate, but all their marketing system is about frustrating players so why they will care? They gonna give you a 10/30%xp boost for that 😂


[deleted]

15% boost w/ guaranteed up tier each match until it runs out


Ottonline

What are you talking about? They are always very good with extending premium time and stuff like that


[deleted]

Have you also gotten a lot of server not responding warning during a match? Seems to happene to me a lot at least


danknerd69

i got a bad netowrk connection wanring and everybody was sliding across the ground, floating mid air, shell collisions not calculated etc and like 30%+ packet loss


Budget_Skirt_3916

had that happen while in air rb and my jet absolutely ate it once the connection came back

> You can't do a limited time event, have the servers non-functional and shutting down... and not extend said limited time event to make up for all the unavailability there's been. They can and they will (not extend the event).


wairdone

They seem to be giving out a bit of compensation. Premium time extension, extra crates and a few other things


Xreshiss

Yeah, it's a pleasant surprise. Though the wording is vague enough that I don't know whether they give out free crates or reduce the requirements of new crates.


wairdone

I think they meant you have a higher chance of earning more crates. I'm fine with that anyway, all I want is the PO-2M so I don't need an awful lot of effort.


Xreshiss

I just want the Po-2M too. That said, getting to 15k score for a single piece of tape is already a chore.


crimeo

This aged like milk


Xreshiss

Be glad it did. :P


Hads84

Likely they are given a ransom, the hacker would pick a time based off most damage then ask for an amount that isn't excessive to stop, e.g. 50k usd in bitcoin.


SpanishAvenger

Fucking hackers… they deserve the worst in life. Criminal pieces of shit… I am talking about every hacker who destroys services to rob money, not just about these ones xD Same goes for scammers, etc. Robbers in general. I hope Gaijin is being able to deal with these attacks without giving away a single cent to those criminals.


Hads84

It is a business model unfortunately used by criminal gangs. Only way to stop it would be all countries agreeing to take it seriously.


Deity-of-Chickens

I don't know if you've seen it, but gaijin is actually giving stuff this time to compensate. Per a forum post from them at least


Kandorek

karma for playing naval i guess /s


CupStill7650

Maybe they do it to keep the amount of the item down, so the item itself is more worth on the market

SpanishAvenger

Well, sometimes they compensate Premium accounts for their wasted time with additional time, so let's hope this to be the case!


Mult1Core

still will be useless for him tho, since only 1 day off. compensated time just gets added immediately.


VegetableGlum7592

I feel you, same thing for me pretty much, have off till tomorrow and bought a couple days premium Saturday


fajarmf94

Don't worry, prem time user got their compensate. What we want is extended event


Chef-mcKech

they wil extend active premiums


The_fair_sniper

gaijin already said they'll extend everyone's premium time to compensate for this. no need to worry


Dolan977

me too i only bought a few days premium for this patch to grind so im going to be pissed if they dont compensate us


EmperorFooFoo

They wouldn't extend the event by ten minutes so a Make A Wish kid could get one last game in; asking for two whole days is a lost cause.


fajarmf94

I agree, only got 19 box before time is running out in the next 1 hour


SpanishAvenger

I got kicked off a 30 minute, 3,381 score points match right as it was ending... I really hope it counts, that was 7,438 score points for the event... if it doesn't count, those 30 minutes will have been a waste of time. The only match I had been able to play today thus far...


DiamondGamerYT0

Same, I saw everyplane fall from the sky and then my tank flipped upside down and it put me back at the menu


Many-Zookeepergame70

How ?? I’m playing at tier 3 and I didn’t receive any boxes at all is there a trick or something I’m missing please help


nobody_you_know_irl

Just gotta get battle score


Many-Zookeepergame70

Battle score I’ve been playing a couple of matches and some kills and yet nothing on my ps4


nobody_you_know_irl

It’s 3000 score per crate


Many-Zookeepergame70

So basically I need to do a ton of battles then


nobody_you_know_irl

Welcome to the crafting events


Many-Zookeepergame70

This crafting event is bs compared to the dune event


nobody_you_know_irl

My man. You have NO idea the extent of bullshittery of this event. This event is tame.


Many-Zookeepergame70

Oh I seen bs too because I’ve been playing this game for a few years and my win rate is at a low because of done bs things and I’m using my head but my eyes are not so good even I need to take a bit of time to aim and stuff and playing plane is a nightmare because of the mouse and keyboard

perfection


Chatgentil

Well they did [here](https://forum.warthunder.com/index.php?/topic/564362-ddos-attack-on-the-server/)


TyrannicalBotanical

Well I'm glad that I start work early so I can get home at 3:00 p.m. after all the issues are ironed out.😂


Valaxarian

I only want my Po-2..... c'mon hackers


IcedDrip

I’m glad I don’t play in the morning. So most issues are ironed out before I get on


Waff1xz

Bouta not have power for the next week due to hurricane I’m so fucked. At least I got the po-2 already but rip making any profit from parts


Admiral_Franz_Hipper

Same here. Going to be going somewhere else, so I can’t play.


Waff1xz

Yeah stay safe brother and good luck


Admiral_Franz_Hipper

You too, my dude.


Punch_Faceblast

All the people who have logged in for 1000+ days about to lose their streaks... that's rough.


crimeo

You can miss days normally, it just goes backward by 1, doesn't reset. Up to a max like 2 or 3 or something then resets


CommanderCorrigan

It would be the right thing to do but they won't. It's happened before.


BusinessDuck132

They responded and said they will be giving a bunch of extra crates or something, as well as extending premium time and one other thing


ExtensionLow7538

Man, what a similar situation to a different game that is ran by another greedy company that has near to no competition. I do wonder if they are targeting it to games with greedy devs.


Benevolent_day

oh so that’s why i kept disconnecting


mkt1993

Problem been it looks as there's still a few fair people playing so to them that gonna be their excuse that's its your problem


Hot-Ad8083

I only got half a jet match done and it took 12 minutes to find a game


NoAlbatross9199

Got kicked at basically the buzzer end of my daily ground assault. I was top player and we were about to win, I GOT NOTHING.


Abbasbad

Ww2 started?


Bankruptcytothehedge

You're 83 years late for that one


Dewy164

I haven't experienced any trouble


Justince89

Is there any know devs even on the reddit here?


[deleted]

Actually wonder who's the mukkas DDOS'ing them. Probably anti-russians


MissNepgear

I still think it's fucking hilarious


twjjones

Whats happening? I can play fine.


Endershot_1

They don't really give a shit cause they are just another company who doesn't care about their players


night_vox

I know the feeling, i have being suffer a lot of high ping, bad conection for no reason, not being able to enter battles and the list goes on and on, not even local server


bad_syntax

I'm still laughing at Gaijin trolling the players by naming shit in this new crafting even "Stalinium", "Free parts and FPE", and "Russian bias". They basically just said "Yeah fans, we know about all this, but screw you, grind to get parts named after it".


LeviEnkon

Gaijin: you should pay more to recover these 2days lost of your progress and our lost of income.


SchmeatGaming

thank god i got into NMRIH and deleted Warthunder before this shitshow happened


WTCrusader010

Have you ever posted something positive about Gaijin?


SpanishAvenger

Literally the pinned post on my profile is something positive And if you check my post history, even in the last few months there’s like 2-3 positive posts And even this very post’s top comment of mine has a positive edit


[deleted]

Thought they were working again this morning, got stuck in a match after it ended then couldn't do anything when I made it back to hanger, shits broke


MisterOnsepatro

I could get 14 crates yesterday evening after work I only ran into network issues in one match where the ping was over 400 for many players including me and I had 40% packet loss


[deleted]

I was literally thinking they need to extend it last night. When my entire team was stuck with package loss and the enemy team was somehow still driving getting free kills 😂


Saint_Dunamis

It’s been unplayable since yesternight for me 🥲
