-
We would like to know the administration opinion about this accident. What's happening?

If this is a DDoS attack, and if by accident you mean incident, and if by administration you mean the SysAdmin, well...
SysAdmin's, by their very nature, are totally anal about Uptime. As such, the SysAdmin is not amused.

Well,at least there's people on forum,so you can actually talk to more than 5-6 guys per faction :D
-
we getting ddosed all day and night
-
Endure. In enduring, grow strong. ;)
-
I agree with stem here.
Where is my daily fix :(
-
well, the Social Justice Warriors got bored of DDosing 4chan and decided to try something new
-
It happened to fo2 as well, their servers were off for a day or 2.
-
I'm really curious why someone is wasting time and money for DDOSing a fonline server.
DDOS something useful for fucks sake. This makes no sense. Its like aiming your Avenger minigun at your neighbourhood cop.
-
Its not a DDoS, its just a exploit in the fonline-server vulnerability, so a single malicious packet just crashes the server.
For the current time I've moved the game port to 4001, hopefully the assailant doesn't read our forums while I pinpoint the problem. Thanks for your patients and continued support!
Also if any IT / security experts want to have a crack at problem feel free to message me. I have collected the traffic of the attack and have started to filter through the packets to find the offending one, from 300k packets, i've narrowed it to around 3k :p.
-
Cirn0 to the rescue!
So we can change the port and connect?
If so how do we do this?
No pressure, this must be frustrating.
-
Look at your 'net' tab in your handy fonline-config.
-
Yaaaa ;D
Thanks Cirn0
Thanks Myakot
Thanks Obama

How is the server looking for tonight's event?
-
Will there be fight at all?
-
When the devs screw with your posts lol.
"thats not what I typed" :D
-
sorry, I just had to. At least it still says that it was edited by me
-
sorry for asking but can someone specify what ddosing means?
-
sorry for asking but can someone specify what ddosing means?
distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack.
The most common method is to send unlimited amounts of requests to the server machine, so much that it simply breaks, or responds to the normal traffic so slowly, it can be rendered as useless. The other one (idk if it has a different name) when a malicious packet is sent to the server, which holds an impossible command, which ends the same for the server.
It's illegal, and I believe you can even get a sentence for that.

"Thanks Obama"
John pls
thanks obama

send me teh packets
-
Its been elevated to cvet as it's a problem I cannot fix without modifying the exe, or some custom launcher. Thanks for all the support and interest tho!
-
How are things going??
-
Aye this whole 'server offline' thing is not really helping server population but I guess you figured that yourselves already. Hope you find a solution soon. This server is far to awesome and it hurts to see it empty.
I really appreciate your hard work so I made you a present.

Teela is absolutely right, The server population has drastically dropped, only a selective amount of people who changed their ports to 4001 roam the server.
As for the DDOS attack, I'm not pointing fingers but I wouldn't be surprised if it came from the other FO server.
Cirno you need to fix this issue ASAP or else you will lose a significant amount of your player base, not everybody checks the forums.
I recommended you change the the main post on the website aswell, and preferably add a news section
Also looking forward to the next patch

I log in, but there's never anyone to kill

By crashing the server does that mean the packet causes the memory to overflow? Or is it something more deeper like a loop hole in the code? From my experience in programming loops and memory management is every programmer's worst nightmare, right up there with horribly organised coding or semantic errors... or all of them at once... oh god. Sorry I can't help since my programming is very limited in python and c# (I also know pascal not that anyone gives a crap about it anymore). I also have no clue on things involving telecommunications or internet protocols for that matter. I really hope your trial and error gets the work done. Or maybe you've set up a separate program to handle the filtering, but kudos anyway.

Having server port unofficial for such a long time doesn't seem to be healthy for player base at all...

Yep i believe a lot of players dont read the forums and were not aware of that :(

It's just that, many players do not read the forum. I personally did not know they had changed the port to 4001, until a week later
-
Also, it shows offline on the server status page in FOdev. Not exactly heartening.
-
nothing we can do really
-
uh main page reminder says curent port is 4001 but it is 4000 is tis intentional
-
Why server currently offline? It was hacked or smth? As I see it's 2nd day already?
-
Son, brace yourself. I have news for you.
Your game... It is dead.
-
Seems your answer isn't joke, nobody else replied. Bad. Well, hm, I just deleted "Requiem" client because they can't handle some anonimous group of hackers. So 2 fav servers passed away. Maybe Fonline just too old for 2015-2016 and dying ??? lol
Anyway, it was fun. Sometimes. Like 15% of time which i spend in game it was.

We're in the Middle of Some Calibrations.

They are trying to figure out ways to implement wipe-worthy features without the need of a wipe.

as long as cirn is there its alive and growing ... man if u cud see this , closed testing server such fun ... aop wipe will bring more changes all other servers had in the past in all their changelogs at once ... o lordy
-
Isn't already what happens with each AOP changelog ?
-
I think that some of the changes will surprise you.
-
Maaan, that sounds intriguing... and kinda scary
-

I was very surprised when the server got taken down :O
-
Is theres any update about wipe status?
