reforger_multiplayer

[carmine crypt]

Same bruh same

[solid matrix]

why is it always at the same time

[chilly tendon]

apparently back up

[granite berry]

I just sent you the link! Best thing! I will be live soon and walk anyone through it! How to teleport on Arma Reforger!

[prisma sundial]

awesome, thx man

[torpid scarab]

unplayable right now, as soon as u find a server to play on and done something meaningful, it crashes

[twilit minnow]

how's the servers ?

[blazing flax]

Fucked

[torpid scarab]

look a comment above yours

[zealous mountain]

Yea an official Statement pinned to like a channel on discord or another steam announcement would be pretty nice. Just to give players some heads up about the state of issue fixing. I am very disappointed with Bohemia for letting there community completely in the dark.

[echo dragon]

#announcements and #socials
They're still current

[zealous mountain]

Yea bro but no change in 24h, and absolutely nothing said about what is done to fix the issue.

[torpid scarab]

jeah, like also after atleast several days of this going on now, youd think they would get this under control

[zealous mountain]

DDoS is not so easy to handle bro. It can acually take days to get fixed. Alot of companies have issues with it.

[lyric gulch]

I thought some russian hackers were ddosing

They said on X if one of the developers replies or smth they'd stop

[zealous mountain]

i guess i am gonna wait until tomorrow and if nothing happens then a refund is the way to go. Gonna buy the game again when it gets more playable xD

[safe ore]

big brain

[echo dragon]

There was change, the servers were back up. The issue was fixed several times.
The attack just keeps coming back

[lament sonnet]

Hi All, my server states keeps refreshing and then no services works. Which makes me unable to play multiplayer. Any suggestions on fixing this?

[zealous mountain]

well aye there we go, some sort of statement. Pin it to the top so people know whats going on and dont have to scroll through 200 pages of chat messages

[zealous mountain]

Servers are getting DDoS'd, nothing you can do. Wait for the devs to fix the problem. Probably a good idea to play something else today and come back to Reforger tomorrow.

[lyric gulch]

squad it is

[hybrid echo]

game master still works lol

[lament sonnet]

FFS, it's well known for devs to just publish their stuff and then worry about the security later on while Cybersec guys try their hardest for people just to follow the benchmarks.

[prisma sundial]

they are known to not listen to the community or to any complaints/suggestions players have, just their company

[zealous mountain]

Sometimes theres nothing you can do about it brother. Hackers get into your system one way or another. Maybe it is lesson learned by bohemia and some more money invested in Security though.

[limber plume]

whats up with all the servers rn

[zealous mountain]

Servers are getting DDoS'd, nothing you can do. Wait for the devs to fix the problem. Probably a good idea to play something else today and come back to Reforger tomorrow.

[prisma sundial]

can you post the link?

[lament sonnet]

Security dept budget is always low until they suffer a breach. Then they get all the money in the world 🤣

[grim dagger]

We being ddosd again?

[echo dragon]

DDoS is literally spam. What do you mean you can't spam spam?
And yes you would need the IP. Which everyone has because every reforger server connects to the backend servers

[grim dagger]

Run multi terminal an then boom
Ofcs you can't do it forever (unless you just leave PC open 24/7) but Yeaa

[zealous mountain]

Yak just dont spam chat if you have 0 idea what you´re talking about

[echo dragon]

wat, thats nonsense

[grim dagger]

No tf they're isn't?💀💀

[echo dragon]

Can you please stop all capsing

Yeah I can tell

[pulsar coral]

yeah stop shouting lower case your voice gentlemen

[grim dagger]

It's not like discord, if your ddosing you literally can spam it a lot, I use to mess around with ddosing on my own servers (ips I set up from servers I worded this wrong but yuh)
You can run it as long as your PC stays on, or until you close it, they're is no cool down.

[echo dragon]

Imagine if things had cooldowns.
"No you can't punch that guy again, you just punched him less than 30 minutes ago, you need to wait"

[zealous mountain]

This dude gotta be trolling

[grim dagger]

Nah I haven't messed w netcut

[echo dragon]

Dude you can literally go into the attackers chat where they announce that they're DDoS'ing

[rare obsidian]

im brand new (downloaded yesterday) does this happen often?

[grim dagger]

Nah just of recent it started happening

[pulsar horizon]

It depends on what software you are using the ones that usually have cooldowns aren’t usually using your pcs power. The ones that don’t have cool downs are usually using your gpu

[odd compass]

they down again?

[echo dragon]

Outage of servers, maybe a day every 2-3 months.
Outage like this, maybe once a year or less

[brittle patrol]

Any news on the outage?

[grim dagger]

I wanna suggest to the devs to use cloudflare tools
Ez

[echo dragon]

And the attacker moves to the new IP, within a few minutes

[odd compass]

i was just playing last night no problem n now its aids

outages like this has been going on for the last 4 days? no???

[echo dragon]

yes

[grim dagger]

Depends, if they have a static ip, unplug router n replug wait 5 mins before replugging, other than that, if it isn't the devs main server then you'd have to change it through they're services they're using

[odd compass]

sad ddos attackers

[grim dagger]

Devs literally said it was a DDos attack

5th time people have said this to you

[echo dragon]

Dude. You can follow the attackers announcing that they're running a DDoS.. Who knows? We know..
You don't know what you're talking about. Or you do know, but you're trolling.

[zealous mountain]

Homie just stop responding to it, dude´s gotta be trolling.

[grim dagger]

I'm not mad, it's just annoying having to respond to a person that clearly isn't listening lol

[grim dagger]

(☞ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)☞ ⁿᵒ ᵖʳᵒᵇˡᵉᵐ

Nuh uh :>

[glass flint]

Any chance anyone can send me a invite to the darkgru arma discord new to the game

[grim dagger]

Arma is secondary happiness

1st happiness is coffee🔥

[grim dagger]

Sure DM me a random letter I'll send it to ya

Lol nice

[storm kernel]

YH

[grim dagger]

Yuuuuuup

[karmic iris]

yay its down again

[hard tundra]

Can these lot sort there fucking servers out 😭

[upper igloo]

DDOS again? BRO CAN THEY FUCK OFF AND FIX THE GAME

[hard tundra]

Potato fucking servers

[karmic iris]

they wont, cuz either they dont care enough cuz sales numbers arent affected or they r on the matter and trying to resolve this s*** asap

great, im in queue again

[hard tundra]

I get kicked out the queue

[karmic iris]

i was just in a game, was going great

[urban meteor]

so 1 guy is dossing the entire game?

[karmic iris]

that's the current theory i guess

[small otter]

he keeps posting about it on telegram lmao

[upper igloo]

I think so, theres also rumors its people doing it to blackmail bohemia for bitcoin

[karmic iris]

ddos again lol

[hard tundra]

Send a inv link Lemmi see this shit

[grim dagger]

Not a hacker, just a coder who probably eats dirt for a living, hackers are literally people who have better things to do then to DDos game servers💀

[hard epoch]

Honestly dirt is not bad

[karmic iris]

lol

[upper igloo]

Fr

[grim dagger]

With all the worms inside his head

Wouldn't be surprised..

[karmic iris]

bro down so bad

[small otter]

this guy lol

[karmic iris]

its back!

[urban meteor]

we got any Russians that can translate lmao

[hard tundra]

Ffs 😭

[upper igloo]

Either way I hope he fucking burnss in hell, although hold on guys. I think his mom is coming to tell its his bedtime and that he needs to stop using his computer.

[grim dagger]

He's just threatening for them to up they're protection or he'll keep doing it.

[urban meteor]

well tbf he been doing this days now from what Ik why ain’t the protection been up

[grim dagger]

Idek

Why not ask the devs or ask a admin to relay the msg to Bohemia to use cloudflare tools

[hybrid echo]

💀 what a dick lol i mean bruh atleast do it once to show that you have little protection and you need ot up it its kinda pointless to keep doing it again and again

[rare obsidian]

i watched so many videos after downloading yesterday on how to play properly & i finally felt good enough to join and this happens lmao

maybe im the bad luck sorry fellas

[hybrid echo]

lol i just bought it the other day too

[rare obsidian]

timing is crazy

[hybrid echo]

fr

also bought it for my cousins lol

[karmic iris]

this dude thinks he's somethin

[hot plaza]

Lol cant even pull off a proper hack

[grim dagger]

Yeah, but he's seeing it on his own side he's gonna keep doing it until protection is upped, other than that we'll jus be stuck here, sales will fall, an then people will ask for refunds they'll either do something or just pull a titanfall

[grim dagger]

Tbf not a lot of people can, the most common and easy attack is a DDos

[hybrid echo]

yeah, I mean i doubt itll completly die off once they get it fixed itll probably rake back in players, if they do fix it, maybe bohemia ran outta money lol

[grim dagger]

Wouldn't be surprised

[hybrid echo]

someone should ddos the ddoser lol

[grim dagger]

I mean, if someone gets the ip, an it happens to be laying around, then ez unless they're using a VPN, good luck then lol.

Which most ddosers are using vpns to be undetected

[hybrid echo]

lol yeah true

[hot plaza]

Its very difficult to back track a ddos attack. However hes posting all over the place about it

[hybrid echo]

ddos the vpn then ddos the ddoser

[echo dragon]

You think they don't already know that?

[grim dagger]

Seems like they don't if it's getting through

[echo dragon]

Well I see many people saying they don't use it.
If they really don't, then there is probably a reason, and I don't know what it is

[urban meteor]

guys I got to play for 10 mins what a miracle

[grim dagger]

Idk either, but they gotta figure out some way to up the protection otherwise this is gonna just continue happening

[echo dragon]

I'm sure they already know that

[stiff swift]

they wont bother unless they lose players

[echo dragon]

No messages any of us here could send them, would change anything about how they deal with it though.
They are doing what they're doing, they know whats at stake

[river harbor]

delta force just mad arma reforger got so many players now

[hybrid echo]

Even bohemias website is down lol damn

[stiff swift]

nah clearly microsoft and activision doing it because bo6/warzone is a pile of steaming shit

[river harbor]

yea might be, lets ddos them back jk

[stiff swift]

yeah and rub our nips at the same time

[grim dagger]

Doubtful
Microsoft couldn't care less
And Activision is too busy coming up with more micro transactions lol

[karmic iris]

idk about yall but i love my 999+ ping servers

[river harbor]

come on dude its possible to find IP from ddos just send a trojaner automatically

[exotic nexus]

i thought i was triping

[grim dagger]

Ha lucky me I only got 998+

[wooden forum]

It came back for 30 minutes on experimental and then went down

[upper igloo]

bruh again?

[stray valve]

the game is still down

[exotic nexus]

shit mine says game servers offline

[raw perch]

WTF

[grim dagger]

That works too, shit, could even trace back the logs an look at ip that way

[twilit quest]

Why have I paid for this game to not be able to play it for the past 4 days?

[brisk frost]

this shit blows

[wooden forum]

Leak their IP to the Ukrainians Pls

[upper igloo]

fr

[twin sun]

Hey, are you able to buddy up on the Scenario's, trying to play then in a team? Is it possible?

[keen socket]

This is mad lame

[grim dagger]

What the Ukrainians gonna do bro? They're at war still aren't they? They're too busy tryna stay alive 💀

[karmic iris]

nah u got the "pre order" edition

[stray valve]

some refunds

[upper igloo]

Plz, fucking then send a drone swarm to blow fucking ruski up, fucking hate the ruskis, destroyed my country, the only thing their good at is killing and destroying, uncivilized

[wooden forum]

It was just a joke to show my frustration m8

[hybrid echo]

dude they're playing arma irl😭

[wooden forum]

1.4 Update MRLS

[grim dagger]

💀

[karmic iris]

this is new, every server has 999+ ping on the server list

[upper igloo]

how tf are we supposed to play

[grim dagger]

Ik, I wasn't tryna come off as mad I was jus saying lol

[wooden forum]

lmao no worries

[upper igloo]

I didnt pay 50 dollars to have to wait 5 hours in between 30 mins sessions

[grim dagger]

Play some rust
It's like reforger except it gives you depression after 30 people raid you💀

[karmic iris]

i cant even invite friends into my own game

[upper igloo]

And its also 50

[grim dagger]

Sameeeee, I jus be chillin till this all blows over

[karmic iris]

fr apply for a refund, that's what will scare bohemia into acting on this shit

[upper igloo]

Bro how hard can it be to put a vpn

[grim dagger]

Yeah + the 60 more that come over an decide to do the happy tapioca with you💀

[hybrid echo]

anyone wanna play arma 3 lol

[prisma sundial]

send a link

[karmic iris]

just a firewall or like pay some company for that service holly potatoes bro

[wooden forum]

Ngl they're making progress, being how i was able to play, and their network has 651 ping for me

[grim dagger]

It isn't ddosed yet?
Wild lol

[brisk panther]

Steam backend, so no.

[hybrid echo]

LMAO wait so arma 3 still works but bohemia websites are down?

[grim dagger]

Yuuuuup

[odd compass]

a VPN wouldnt fix anything, go google some things lil bro

[urban meteor]

link to what it was a ss idk who has it

[upper igloo]

Bruh idk

[wooden forum]

But I believe some server and popular modder did something haneous and they banned him so he's retaliating

[upper igloo]

But I think a huge company like bohemia should be able to fix their shit fairly quick especially when its this bad

[wooden forum]

And i do think he's russian, someone probably knows more than me

[upper igloo]

Could be ukrainian

[odd compass]

100% agree they should have their shit together

[candid kernel]

Dang I left 4 hours and it’s still going on ?

[grim dagger]

Honestly
Could be, but rn it's mostly just the person throwing tantrum for more protections lol

[wooden forum]

dude it's been going on for 4 days

[upper igloo]

My man its gonna keep going on until every single person refunds reforger and then its gonna go onto 3

[karmic iris]

did this happen to arma 3 aswell?

[upper igloo]

Not yet

[upper igloo]

Wdym haneous?

[grim dagger]

Nah I think 3 is safe

Reason for reforger being attacked is because it's on multiple platforms with open ips

[echo dragon]

Arma 3 runs on steam. They would have to take down steam

[brisk panther]

Different backend, to bring A3 down all of steam needs to go.

[karmic iris]

im sorry but console players can *uck off for now lol

[prisma sundial]

time to go play some Counter-Strike 1.6 or Wolfenstein 3d

[odd compass]

this is why you never release a PC game to consoles

[grim dagger]

Nuh uhh lol

[upper igloo]

Bruh knowing how persistent this little fucking pussy is, he gonna do that to. At that point I will genuily find his ip myself. Idc what it takes

[hard panther]

its someone thats anti-ukrainian being weird

[grim dagger]

Correction that's why you never post every server ip straight into the loading page of the q system lol

[karmic iris]

doesnt the community have any experience on making a fuckin 3rd party server browser, like truckers mp for ets2/ats?

[upper igloo]

guess not

[raw perch]

It was fine for a couple of days but this is getting old now i hope its not gonna be a reocurring thing that happens every so often

[echo dragon]

There is not really a need, for a outage maybe once every 2 months
And the servers themselves still depend on the backend, so replacing server browser on clients wouldn't help

[upper igloo]

Wow I love wating an hour just to play for 30 mins

[grim dagger]

My laptop exploded so no can do here lol

[odd compass]

my favorite thing about the game

[upper igloo]

Genuinly wtf, if any other company did this they would be on their knees pleading for people to not absolutly tank them into the ground

[karmic iris]

I think it's the best option really, devs dont have the time (or resources if i had to guess) to deal with that shit, let the modders take care of it, just like nohesi for asseto corsa and truckersmp for ets2

[karmic iris]

that's what i meant, sorry for the lack of better terms but yeah ditch the shitty servers, use community mod-devs ones just like the examples i mentioned earlier

[grim dagger]

Honestly didn't think it would go on for this long but aye guess they're committed lol

[ebon maple]

cant wait for this russian hacker to be drafted to the front lines with the north koreans

[karmic iris]

cant we like track his *ss and ddos him back?

[odd compass]

north koreans gonna be stealing their phones n busting on em

[karmic iris]

what is a phone

[upper igloo]

I hope he fucking gets a entire gernade in groin while hes sleeping, or even better bleeds out slowly after his legs got blown of by and ied

[ebon maple]

hahaha i seen about that

[grim dagger]

Could
Unless he uses VPN then it gets more complicated

[hard panther]

he probably found out how to opt himself out because hes too scared

[karmic iris]

or maybe rich daddy

[ebon maple]

maybe he convinced the recruitment officer we train our soldiers with arma and he said he can shut us down

[hard panther]

lmao

[upper igloo]

cant wait to be drafter into ww3 to blow of some ruski heads

[karmic iris]

funny thing is that this is an actual thing, training real life soldiers on arma, a buddy of mine talked to me about it, it was either sweden,poland or the usa

[upper igloo]

Prob poland

[hard panther]

US does

[upper igloo]

After all, poland is where ikea got mines, police cheif fired a gernade launcher in his office and smth else i dont remeber

[hard panther]

i think its their own little arma 2 or something but they get on it

[merry rose]

Hello I need to help

[grim dagger]

Ehh I don't think I would want anyone to die, like yeah they're assholes for messing up the game but no need to go off on how you wanna murder them lol

[karmic iris]

with?

[upper igloo]

You wouldn't get it, we poles hate the russians witha burning passion

[karmic iris]

soldiers or ruskys in general?

[upper igloo]

Depends

[karmic iris]

cuz i was about to say, russians are legendary ppl, look up "r/normaldayinrussia", thank me later

[upper igloo]

Most of the time both, but depends on the person, some people oppose their barbaric regim...democracy

[jaunty horizon]

thats not what Luigi said

[karmic iris]

yeah fuck their regime

[grim dagger]

Ik, but still, they're blood and bone like you, nobody should have to be sent off to go die lol

[upper igloo]

The russians have commited hanious war crimes in ukraine that would have them sentenced to death anyway.

bruh

[mortal jungle]

if you want to help kill russians, then donate to the Ukrainian army 🤣
https://savelife.in.ua/

[upper igloo]

Already did brother, organized a supply run from poland to ukraine

[karmic iris]

pun?

[rancid remnant]

stupid question ... but how quick do the servers usually come back up? I picked the game up yesterday :/

[upper igloo]

?

[mortal jungle]

Good job bro

[karmic iris]

oh boy strap in

[upper igloo]

Its DDos depends on the ruski pussy

[karmic iris]

nvm

[ancient heron]

worst time to buy servers are under attack

[rancid remnant]

is this meta? do I need to do something to join in defending the attack?

[karmic iris]

if u can, refund for now

[upper igloo]

No its a cyber attack

[karmic iris]

servers are getting ddos attacks

[robust mica]

You joined at the wrong time.

[upper igloo]

You cant do anything

[rancid remnant]

soz, was being sarcastic

[upper igloo]

Ah mb, didnt translate in text

[ancient heron]

same reason lizard squad took donw xbox

[upper igloo]

Black mail for bitcoin maybe

[karmic iris]

some dude (prob russian) is doing it for fun

[rancid remnant]

sounds like a laugh

[upper igloo]

If I got my fucking hands on him I would show him fun

[karmic iris]

idk that's what ppl r saying, scroll up, there's a photo of a telegram gc

[mortal jungle]

It's true, it's russians schoolchildrens which have more free time

[upper igloo]

And bohemia is taking a nice long vacation while all of this is happening both parties are at fault

[odd compass]

ddos him back

[upper igloo]

You know wat

Maybe I will, I'm mad enough to learn how to do this shit

Actually, on second thought

[odd compass]

i was joking lmao be careful homie lol

[upper igloo]

I dont want the feds called on me

[hard tundra]

These servers are taking the piss iv just brought the game aswell 😭

[dark orchid]

yeah its bs

[karmic iris]

most basic way, pull up your cmd, type in ping "ip address" and repeat

[upper igloo]

That's easier and cheaper than I thought

[odd compass]

sketchy asf

[magic cradle]

Costs money to ddos

[karmic iris]

ik you will need hundreds of the devices doing it at the same time, but for a home wifi? that'll slow it down massively if not taking it out completely

[upper igloo]

Ah, then teach me your ways sir

[odd compass]

people that wanna play the game, have money

[warped tapir]

bohemias ukranian? thats why some russian guy iss ddosing?

[karmic iris]

I've messsed with it with a friend who gave me his ip address, it got so bad that discord was running on 4k ping

[upper igloo]

dont people dox others all the time, how hard can it be

[odd compass]

yes go google best botnet to buy and start ddosing

[magic cradle]

can’t get ip of someone

[warped tapir]

maybe lmao. I didnt even know bohemia was ran by a ukranian iif it iss jusst what ive heard

[odd compass]

you gonna get you ISP to shut your shit down so fast LMFAO

[karmic iris]

there are many ip logger websites, although i doubt that'll bring any results

[grim dagger]

Yuuurrrr

[upper igloo]

Wait

[warped tapir]

should i closse my game?

[karmic iris]

already did

[plain zenith]

they're czech

[narrow grove]

only if they make a mistake and post stuff online

[upper igloo]

Can we not get his ip by telegram somehow?

[warped tapir]

i dunnno what that is im american

[upper igloo]

He posts on twitter

[narrow grove]

usually connected accounts/posting real life photos/downloading malware etc

[karmic iris]

send him an ip logger-link some how without him knowing

[cold hazel]

SERVER ADMINS: Are your servers not able to boot due to problems connecting to the backend?

[odd compass]

yeh you can buy botnets, but from someone you trust, i was joking abt googling it those are all scams and virus

[plain zenith]

can't help stupid, open the map ull figure it out

[narrow grove]

you can't just doxx someone from an anonymous twiter page

[brisk panther]

I wonder why

[upper igloo]

Lol

[grim dagger]

Don't really need a bot net, can use 1 laptop to run it all

But yeah they do need his ip lol

[odd compass]

become their friend on discord and you can

[upper igloo]

Wait can I host a game on my pc?

[karmic iris]

yes

[warped tapir]

iits a pain in the ass

[upper igloo]

Ok, problem solved?

[magic cradle]

Which you can’t get

[karmic iris]

but u cant rn cuz of the ddos

[odd compass]

goobers

[cold hazel]

@brisk panther I know there's a DDOS, what I'm asking is if the dedicates servers I'm hosting are crashing on boot due to this issue or another problem.

[torpid scarab]

yes due to this, they attacking backend, so servers cannot register. See it like this. your server is just 1 of 2 servers needed to play. your server connects to the bohemi a server, but that server is getting attacekd right now, so your server cannot connect to bohemia

[cold hazel]

@torpid scarab Thanks Mow, I was playing with some new addons and was hoping I didn't break something.

[upper igloo]

Buts its on my private ip that's not anywhere on the internet?

[karmic iris]

yes but u still need workshop mods and backend stuff

[grim dagger]

Yeah, I'm not that skilled so ofcs I cant do that, ik some other people tho, doubt they'd do it tho

[upper igloo]

Wat if I play vanilla?

[karmic iris]

u could play loaclly, just u

[brisk panther]

Read the console your server puts out. It clearly will say there is a timout and a API/HTTP issue and then shuts down. It's not you.

[narrow grove]

you might be able to get away with some radmin/hamachi LAN stuff but only in a small group

[upper igloo]

And im stupid and dont know jackshit about computers, wdym backend stuff?

[torpid scarab]

See it like this. your server is just 1 of 2 servers needed to play. your server connects to the bohemi a server, but that server is getting attacekd right now, so your server cannot connect to bohemia

[upper igloo]

So can I host my own server?

[karmic iris]

it needs to ping the game servers for some reason, im not that experienced aswell but i got a basic understanding of it

[cold hazel]

@brisk panther Yes, thanks again. I'm working on building my Discord BOT out and was making sure it wasn't a connection issue due to that.

[upper igloo]

Like the backend one?

[karmic iris]

currently, no, if the game is back up then yes

[torpid scarab]

No, since that one still needs to connect to bohemia. you can only play offline singleplayer scenario without mods

[brittle patrol]

How is the server rn?

[grim dagger]

Dead

[upper igloo]

I can make my own backend server, or does it still need to ping bohemia

[brisk panther]

Everyone is talking about the servers but no one cares about the switches 😦

[torpid scarab]

you cannot make your own backend server.

[karmic iris]

u need bohemia's blessings

[warped tapir]

at that point make ur own game

[hybrid echo]

not their fault lol

[torpid scarab]

only cuz you got a phone, you cant communicat ewith it, still need cell tower providers. you cant buy and setup your own mobile phone tower

[shrewd slate]

https://tenor.com/view/solution-suicide-rick-and-morty-gif-10761762

[upper igloo]

Well if they let you host your own 3rd party servers this wouldnt be happening

[karmic iris]

just click on play from the main menu, then click R on whatever map u want, and set the server visibilit to on/public for it ot appear on the server browser

[torpid scarab]

doesnt have to do with that, you mix something up man

[warped tapir]

yes but others cant join it

[upper igloo]

Idk Im stupid

[echo dragon]

@upper igloo scale down your insults or you will leave this server. Complain all you want, don't insult

[karmic iris]

that's what i've told him 3 times already, if the game servers are back up then yeah

[upper igloo]

To who?

[brisk panther]

I meeeean, you COULD. Back when Sim City (the new one) came out modders build a local hosting server that would emulate the license check with the origin servers. This is in no way a legal solution and hard to get to work afaik.

[echo dragon]

anyone

[upper igloo]

bruh, ok

[nova dune]

Just having fun with the boys then bam DC! 😦

[warped tapir]

even when servers are up if you dont do that portforwarding sstuff your friends cant join yyou

[karmic iris]

well, i cant really disagree since i havent tried it fully so

[upper igloo]

Damn how longs is this DDos its usually only like 20 mins

[torpid scarab]

yes, but given the situation and its a different server structure, there would need to be 10s of modders with dedicated time and knowledge of bohemia backend to achieve this. which would take longer than i expect the ddos to bwe, yes its somethign to thinnk about for the future

[karmic iris]

this one's different i think

[torpid scarab]

its going on since days. i couldnt really play this week

[warped tapir]

basically you can host a server and its finable but not joinable

[hybrid echo]

seems like the person is being persistant today doing it every 5 minutes

[upper igloo]

Its special the chosen one

[magic cradle]

They’re holding the servers the ddoser

[floral furnace]

are the servers still down for you too guys ?

[karmic iris]

makes sense now

[warped tapir]

arma reforger so good everyone fuckin jealous 😭

[upper igloo]

Wait till monday hell have to go back to school

[karmic iris]

last time i had a port forwarded it didnt end well

[warped tapir]

how could you be so unemployed?

[solid marten]

why are the servers not on?

[keen socket]

Their lack of security set in place to prevent such is there fault though. Though I can understand why their has been a lack of measures in place to prevent such a thing because the community has never been this big before and its always been a chill community (for the most part to my knowledge at least).

Hopefully something is figured out soon though to fix the issue though!

[keen cloak]

how long till its up? Can I go eat or should I stay on stand by so I don't wait an hour que

[karmic iris]

ddos

[hybrid echo]

lol me to tho

[torpid scarab]

honestly, go eat, could just find another server

[karmic iris]

i mean my ping dropped to 533 ms, it was 999+ just then

[upper igloo]

Hes not hes just a russian whos either dodged draft and hsa nothin better to do or a snot faced kid whos mommy will tell him to go to bed soon

[hybrid echo]

[karmic iris]

i got greeeeeeeeeen

[twilit python]

Even dayz is down?

[magic cradle]

no

[hybrid echo]

yeah, im sure they never ran a game across 3 platforms too tho

[warped tapir]

idk how russian life style is but my uneducated american view on them because of the internet is lifeless kids living in the trenches with very little freedom and theyre all shitheads

[upper igloo]

But I didnt say incredibly insulting, didnt even swear

[keen arch]

is there any website for a serverstatus because my serverlist is not loading

[hybrid echo]

atleast one as popular as this

[meager rock]

No. The arma website is down too.

[karmic iris]

top right

[upper igloo]

I think im allowed to be mad at a person whos destroying our game

[torpid scarab]

you jus tnormal user . not a mod.

[warped tapir]

bro aint even mod dont listen to him lol

[karmic iris]

look at the screen/monitor icon, it should list all the related stats

[storm kernel]

are we there yet?

[upper igloo]

Oh lol, didnt pay attention, hes prob the kid and i just hurt his ego

[warped tapir]

maybe hes the ddoser

[upper igloo]

Nad im joking, dont take it personally lieutenant

[magic cradle]

Im going back to Roblox version of arma they do a better job

[upper igloo]

[torpid scarab]

i miss the internet from 15 years ago man. today everyones butthurt because of anything

[karmic iris]

their whole netcode needs to be fixed aswell

[grim dagger]

Ong
Ngl tho I'd be pretty lazy w it lol

[brisk panther]

you just saved the day

[keen socket]

100% thats why I said essentially I give them benefit of the doubt if you will because the community is at a size that it's never been before.
Which A.) Is awesome for so many reasons but B.) can be seen as bad thing temporarily because of the bad apples or attention/ spotlightlight that has found it

[warped tapir]

let me in that hq ill ssave the day

[magic cradle]

I’ve been wanting to get into that just takes me ages to download stuff on pc

[peak tartan]

Servers are up again? Every single one has got 999 ping.

[hybrid echo]

yeahhhh

[karmic iris]

servers back to 999+ ping

[torpid scarab]

which means: Still being attacked

[warped tapir]

im sure with the changing the prices for christmas sales back therefore sale price is the same as original price they can hire someone

[scenic lake]

arma HAS FALLEN

[karmic iris]

yeah I'm going to bed

[keen socket]

instead of fighting the FIA homie was putting in the work against sabertooth tigers

[glad pollen]

999+ ping yay

[karmic iris]

arma got reforged (plz dont ban)

[warped tapir]

[torpid scarab]

Also Guys, yall logging in and trying to connect ACTUALLY worsens the whole situation. FYI

[warped tapir]

[brisk trail]

Bohemia just needs better security

[glad pollen]

Yea

[karmic iris]

[warped tapir]

fuck this siege server better than this bro

[karmic iris]

[brisk trail]

Some £20 Hacker can get into the servers like whattt..

Russians are smt else.

[karmic iris]

[hybrid echo]

yall tweakin lmao just wait they'll fix it💀

[gusty harness]

i found out that on some server i got promoted and when disconnecting and rejoining the title is gone and i start over pvt again. is that mod based? normal? ^^

[upper igloo]

Its more expensive in the west because we dont specialise in killing and destroying

[karmic iris]

how tf did u get in

[peak tartan]

Soviets been winning too much. They're taking down the servers too.

[narrow grove]

💀

[karmic iris]

i think he likes russians

[torpid scarab]

today i got into two servers, got to play for 30mins until it crashed and all progress was lost. this happened twice, so jeah

[narrow grove]

I think they're spending a little more than 20 dollars

[hard panther]

50/50

[rotund epoch]

great questions

[lean furnace]

Are servers still down ?

[karmic iris]

i think the attacker is taking care of us by limiting our play time

[elfin jewel]

weed 100%

[hallow ore]

is arma reforger up yet

[elfin jewel]

natrual

[keen socket]

jokes on him Im just going to play farmville now

[karmic iris]

yall remind of when they took down tiktok for 16 hours and ppl migrated lol

[hybrid echo]

[hallow ore]

COMMUNISM!!

[karmic iris]

ban the commies

[keen socket]

whoever votes communism is going to the gulag🤣

[hallow ore]

nvm democracy

[karmic iris]

yall never did anything without causing a massacre smh

i changed my vote

[warped tapir]

😠

[narrow grove]

she arma on my reforger until I build an armory before a relay and whine in chat about no supply

[karmic iris]

🔥

[hybrid echo]

love arma 3 nostaliga and mods but reforger has arma 3 beat

[karmic iris]

same desync ?

[rotund epoch]

how poll

[lean furnace]

Are servers still down ?

[peak tartan]

Sometimes worse sometimes more consistently shit

[narrow grove]

"Erm guys why do we have no vehicles?" - man who just spent 2 minutes grabbing two M16s and 3 LAWs

[hybrid echo]

i never really desync on reforged

[faint oar]

yes

[karmic iris]

you're straight up lying no cap

[floral furnace]

damn i don't even get the servers showing up xD

[narrow grove]

like I thought people were exagerrating about US teams but no

[rotund epoch]

how poll

[hybrid echo]

i mean i have only played vanilla and game master with mods so far but i haven't

[karmic iris]

bruuuuuuuuuh

[hybrid echo]

i do have me a beefy computer but idk if that would have to do with it lol

[warped tapir]

bro ivee been desynced so someone 20 feet away from me blew me up

[narrow grove]

last night on Arland we were losing because the soviets had the southern half of the airstrip
and we couldn't get there quickly because Main had zero supplies due to all the people grabbing massive loadouts

[peak tartan]

Desync has nothing to do with specs.

[karmic iris]

u should host ur own 128 players server with all the workshop mods

[narrow grove]

5 people at a time gathered around the arsenal waiting for supplies to tick up to grab them

[karmic iris]

hopefully the new update with bring an end to this

[narrow grove]

and then they ran on foot right down the airfield and got sniped 😭

[narrow grove]

M21 + scope and UGL M16A1 aren't rank locked so unfortunately probably not

also idk why living quarters are rank locked but armory isn't

[hybrid echo]

lmao i think my computer would still explode

[karmic iris]

it should

[hybrid echo]

thought so

[hybrid echo]

nasa couldnt handle that lol

[karmic iris]

why would u

[peak tartan]

RHS doesn't support grips on their guns yet.

[upper igloo]

Wait is the ddos happening because of crossplay feature?

[karmic iris]

im a scar h user

[narrow grove]

no?

[vital sandal]

I played US last night. Drove across the map to capture a base, only guy there, kill almost all the AI before a humvee comes by and almost runs me over. My 'teammates' jump out and shoot me in the back. I don't think it's intentional, they just don't know any better. It's probably hard for them to pay close attention with all the pain in their knuckles from dragging them around all day.

[magic cradle]

No

[karmic iris]

u just described console players (unintentioanlly i think)

[narrow grove]

yeah I had some really bad TKs on the US side
I know everyone makes mistakes but when the guy on a ridge 100m behind you with a scope drops two of his teammates it really makes you wonder

[upper igloo]

Yes, idk thought the ip had to be open for consoles to join or smth mb

[narrow grove]

I think you should be forced to play the tutorial before online is unlocked
and there should be a section on how to PID enemies and friendlies

[stuck zephyr]

There is thanks

[karmic iris]

chech ur server filters,u might've joined a crossplay enabled server

[narrow grove]

I've found people get much better at PIDing once you explain to them what they're looking for to identify

[upper igloo]

I mean I'm fine with crossplay, i just thought because they added that's why its so easy to find the ips

[stuck zephyr]

I did the combat engineering part I guess I should do all of it

[narrow grove]

i haven't played the tutorial in about a year so maybe I forgot about it

[peak tartan]

He did it on purpose. Snickering like a rat at the thought of you being angered by such small repeatable action.

[upper igloo]

Still down?

[narrow grove]

He stopped and apologized when someone started yelling friendlies so I gave him the benefit of the doubt

[upper igloo]

bruh rly, the reaction

[peak tartan]

Lol

[upper igloo]

Are the servers still down?

[vital sandal]

My biggest gripe is probably with people who hop in the gunner seat, but pay zero attention to what is going on around them. How am I driving, navigating (because no one else will), and having to identify your targets? Then hopefully five or ten seconds later the blind man in the gunner seat might start shooting.

[mortal jungle]

guys remember who your enemy

[hybrid echo]

they musta shut down the servers or sum to try and fix it lol

[upper igloo]

Finally

[hard panther]

i dont think it worked

[hybrid echo]

yeah it hasent even tried to connect lol

[upper igloo]

So not fixing it, buh

[hybrid echo]

they probably shut down the servers to avoid more ddos attacks and overcomplicate it while they are trying to fix it

[upper igloo]

Please I beg fix it already

I already gave you 50 bucks, what more can I give you

[peak tartan]

They're definitely doing something right now

Fr.

[upper igloo]

If you say so

[floral furnace]

i just read a twitter where someone was saying that bohemia is getting extorted for money by the guy DDOSing the servers

[upper igloo]

Ye

[prime hawk]

hey so uh

[peak tartan]

Yeah that's usually what they do.

[floral furnace]

that's crazy xD

[prime hawk]

the servers are down? i see someone mentioning ddos attacks

[upper igloo]

Yes they have been for like 5 days

[floral furnace]

apprently he's mad for the WCS servers for depicting the ukraine war

[peak tartan]

Are you allowed to post twitter links?

[floral furnace]

i just played this morning it just got DDOSd like 3 hours ago

[floral furnace]

i'll send you in private to avoid any ban xD

[hard tundra]

Could you send me one In pms?

[upper igloo]

No like they have been happening for five days

[prime hawk]

gotta love no life dipshits going for game servers

[hybrid echo]

thats just life, no one gets mad at any other depictions of war like 6 days in fallujah

[floral furnace]

oh yeah that's true

[upper igloo]

Womp womp, so sorry your stupid regime is making your ass go to war

[keen cloak]

#NoMoreDDOS2025

i mean people nowadays are getting soft man

[hybrid echo]

[floral furnace]

on god man it's fucked up

[lusty basalt]

nah

[upper igloo]

Are we??????!!

[floral furnace]

can't they get security on the servers ? i don't know that much about DDOS and how it works xD

[tulip wolf]

nope

[keen cloak]

does squad also get DDOSed?

[floral furnace]

nop

[magic cradle]

have some yall experienced what it’s like on rust console when a server of that gets ddosed

[wintry hill]

why do people still do this? the authorities can and will often scrape that back.

[upper igloo]

Hes in russia what authorities

[floral furnace]

it takes time even for authorities to do something about it

[finite sequoia]

The DDOSer is 100% watching this discord chan. Getting off on all the comments

[wintry hill]

i mean they have done it with crypto too

[dull nimbus]

how have these filth still not fixed this lol

[keen cloak]

Snoopdog would be furious

[floral furnace]

yeah but it's crypto 😉

big ass companies involved with that

[spark dove]

i just bought the game and did training, i am trying to find a server in multiplayer but no results are showing up. Am I doing something wrong?

[safe ore]

Refund

[upper igloo]

If you watching this you fuck, I'll see you on those ukrainian videos of russians getting legs exploded. I hope you lose both of your feet so you have crawl back to your sorry ass country.

[wintry hill]

who the fuck cares? they are the most pathetic type of person. I dont give too fucks what they think. Oh i might have to play another game for a bit.

[finite sequoia]

not your falut

[floral furnace]

no the servers are all down cuz of DDOS

[safe ore]

lol

[upper igloo]

I'm wondering, how could bohemia even fix this?

[wintry hill]

hiring good network security professionals that specialize in this

[dull nimbus]

bohemia wasted all their money paying streamers to say the game is the best thing in the world, no money to deal with ddos

[faint oar]

there is no DDoS

[upper igloo]

Says the DDoSer

[floral furnace]

wahahahahahhahahah

[faint oar]

its the influx of new players resulting in an unintentional DDoS

[pastel arch]

what's happened to servers?

[faint oar]

and the baguet people can't keep their backend up

[upper igloo]

Mhm, sure

[wintry hill]

tbh i have also suspected it could be unreliable isp to bohemia or something like that because it comes up from time to time

[spark dove]

yikes

[peak tartan]

Possibly? Itd be crazy if true.

[clever forum]

i think bc this game is geting allot of atention laetely other magor competitors ar enving this game so they hiered som hackers to destroy the comunty. so they go back to thos hacker infested games.

[wintry hill]

i have not seen proof of ddossers in this case but I know they do exist. it would benefit bohemia if they made that public

[wintry hill]

that would leave a hella papertrail and people dont like federal prison

[spark dove]

curious is this a common occurance or very rare?

[wintry hill]

pretty rare but it does happen. 10 year olds can buy ddossing software or pirate it

[floral furnace]

if it's true that would be the biggest lawsuit in gaming industries

[peak tartan]

Very uncommon before PS5 release.

[wintry hill]

russia is also doing an aggressive hacking campaign on all of europe

[royal owl]

is servers up yes

[spark dove]

damn i just finished training too i was excited to try out the game

[plain zenith]

been playing conflict arland pve for 30 mins 🤡

[floral furnace]

nop

[clever forum]

man i mean a loot of games have lost their players bc they dident get their shit up . so they came her.

[wintry hill]

not for me unfortunately

[upper igloo]

So are they fixing it or no?

[lunar wagon]

Pls tell him to bru

[upper igloo]

[wintry hill]

brush his teeth?

[peak tartan]

The workshop is working somewhat.
RHS still won't finish it's 1.8mb update.

[wintry hill]

just saying if it's not even the game companies fault then how you gunna cry about being ripped off

[upper igloo]

Its both the ruskis and companies

What does that do, like actually?

[wintry hill]

can you explain this command?

[sacred saffron]

wipes your drive

[upper igloo]

lol

[wintry hill]

figured lol

[upper igloo]

Do you guys think they'll fix it?

[faint oar]

you right

[narrow grove]

no obviously they'll just leave the game down forever 😔

[upper igloo]

And if yes when?

[wintry hill]

maybe the ddosser will get laid before arma 4 comes out

[indigo quiver]

I’m depressed with no Arma

[vital sandal]

NSA twitter says they are inbound to drone strike the ddoser

[upper igloo]

lol

[indigo quiver]

I’m forced to play squad

[spark dove]

close your eyes and everything will be fixed, just dont open them again

[floral furnace]

at this point i don't wanna play anything other than reforger :/

[vital sandal]

You should try the new Call of Duty if you're a strong, independent wymxn

[indigo quiver]

Yeah imma have to pass on that chief

[floral furnace]

fuck that run and shoot game, COD been a hype 10 years ago now it's dead

[indigo quiver]

I just bought a 100 slot server yesterday and everything

[vital sandal]

I only need 120 more headshots to unlock the diversity is our strength fursuit

[solid grove]

ez moneywaste

[upper igloo]

No, hes in russia he posts on x and telegram

[floral furnace]

what's that ? if i may ask xD

[upper igloo]

A server, with a hundred spots for players

[floral furnace]

ohhhh okey

[upper igloo]

Buh,lol

[indigo quiver]

Conflict Modern PVE completely overhauled

[upper igloo]

Is bohemia saying anything about this?

[narrow grove]

best part is a bunch of the gun skins are actually disadvantageous afaik since the effects obscure the screen 😭

[sacred saffron]

twitter, steam, #announcements pretty much everywhere

[vital sandal]

real operators display their gender identity by hanging keychains from their weapons

[upper igloo]

Oh, so in other wordes they aint doing jackshit, I just read their posts.

[sacred saffron]

not much you can do when you get hit with a botnet of this size you just have to wait for them to stop

[upper igloo]

Shut down the servers and add security?

[narrow grove]

can't believe a twitter post doesn't inclue a step by step instruction booklet of the things they're doing

[floral furnace]

yeah that's crazy it such a pay to win game and that game is so stupid man, i used to play it ngl but that was like 10 years ago xD after ghosts i stopped playing it, who the fuck adds nicki minaj as a skin i mean that ass hitmarker gonna be insane xD

[upper igloo]

Well no, but that was a very generic response, they could give us some background info or smth

[sacred saffron]

look up how ddos attacks work you can target different network layers which some are a lot harder to defend against as you cannot tell the difference between people and the attackers

[peak tartan]

I bought that skin immediately just to piss off tryhards.
It was worth it.

[floral furnace]

hahahahahahhahahha xD

[vital sandal]

they should just download more security. what are they, stupid?

[upper igloo]

Ah, mk. Your right I should do more research. Ima have the feds at my door tmr

[floral furnace]

nah man it's for educational purposes 😄

[peak tartan]

How much dedicated wam should awocated?

[upper igloo]

Download extra ram

[eager sand]

Servers still down?

[narrow grove]

like what
there's not much more they cna say besides "we're working on it" that the general public would understand
not to mention the people doing the DDOS are likely watching

[floral furnace]

yep

[upper igloo]

True, my bad I'm off 3 hours of sleep rn. I'm not thinking straight

[vital sandal]

I was looking forward to trying out the ai chopper gunners again

They broke and would no longer get in my helicopter after a while last night

[floral furnace]

oh btw i was trying to learn how to fly but don't wanna do it in a live server, is there a way i can do it offline or something ?

[upper igloo]

GUYS

[peak tartan]

The AI while improving still isn't very smart.

[vital sandal]

Maybe they had just seen too much

[upper igloo]

RUMOR HAS IT SERVERS ARE FIXED

[sacred saffron]

they still shit on me .

[upper igloo]

rumors underline

[floral furnace]

can you check that out for us ?

[indigo quiver]

I am rn

[upper igloo]

Yup, lemme see

[sacred saffron]

ping is improving a lot but it's still way too unstable for servers to connect i'm sitting at 200 ping but it jumps to 600

[floral furnace]

thanks guys

[upper igloo]

Nope nvm, not for me, but the DDoSer has been Doxxed apparently

[vital sandal]

nope

[peak tartan]

Apparently?

[floral furnace]

damn for me i don't even get the serve list and i get that yellow icon of no connection in the top right corner

[indigo quiver]

It’s still scuffed

[upper igloo]

Someone said he has, all rumors

Does the experimental game also run off the same servers?

[unreal stag]

I’m in no problem

[sacred saffron]

yea all auth requires their servers

[floral furnace]

i think so yeah

[robust mica]

If any of you are gonna believe that random twitter account created 2 days ago claiming to do it, I've lost all hope

[peak tartan]

Not immediately but it's all we got no?

[rotund epoch]

hes on doxbin

[hard panther]

yea lol

[floral furnace]

and what makes you not believe it ? any other proof ?

[vital sandal]

Imagine the social skills of someone who roleplays as someone with no life. incelption

[upper igloo]

Doxbin?

[rotund epoch]

i dont wanna post it and get banned

[echo dragon]

indeed dont post it. Just ask for DM

[upper igloo]

No explain it, wjat is it?

[rotund epoch]

just look it up and scroll down a bit

[floral furnace]

i'm checking on a website that shows the servers live and i see some servers that are full with people how ? xD

[upper igloo]

Alright

[spark dove]

has this been confirmed officially by BI at all or anything that they're aware?

[grave oriole]

Its "THE" side to shame people on the internet and public all their information. aka official doxxing side

[floral furnace]

yeah

[abstract stump]

to put icing on the cake they are saying "pay me bit coin and I'll stop" as if it's them... it's a troll trying to cash out on a gaming tragedy lol

[upper igloo]

ah ok

[floral furnace]

well he'll get his ass on a jail if he doesn't stop xD

[main juniper]

are servers down??

[narrow grove]

Nah

[floral furnace]

there are some servers up for some reason i just checked a website that shows you live servers and their health and some others are down

it's called "battlemetrics"

[abstract stump]

Right? like they wouldn't be able to trace where a bitcoin goes....

[floral furnace]

exactly some people are just dumb xD

[zinc smelt]

does anyone know how long it will take for servers to be back up?

[faint oar]

Alright for the idiots that dont understand how BI shit works.
You need to be connected to BI backend to even touch any of the player servers.
So until BI puts securities in place these attacks will continue.

[zinc smelt]

also everytime i install mods i am completely stuck at 999ping, is there a way to fix that

[sacred saffron]

tell me what securities would you put in place to make a comment

[faint oar]

no dude BI backend is getting hit rn by Russians

[faint oar]

Cloudflare for one

[upper igloo]

Alright, all we can do wait now I guess

[spark dove]

guys we need to protect Bohemia, they're under attack by the West Taiwainese I reckon

[upper igloo]

Damn I hate and love this game at the same time

[faint oar]

hate the Russian activists.

[gilded notch]

the servers don't work anymore am I the only one or is everyone affected?

[sacred saffron]

well for one they use cloudflare

[brazen tulip]

everyone, uninstall reforger and support call of duty by buying all the battle passes, activision is a much better company and they have better servers

[vital sandal]

we should all sit in the road until the servers come back

[faint oar]

if they did then we would have seen it when their main page was down. but we didn't

[crystal iron]

HUH!

[hard panther]

yes

[clever forum]

im not going back to COD you kan ddos all you want r.i.p COD for me

[zinc smelt]

NO, i have spent hours trying to fix me being stuck at 999 ping after mods install and even after pc restart, i will not give up now

[brazen tulip]

spam steam until they give refunds, trust me

[vital sandal]

I called 911 about it. They said the police are on their way

[hard panther]

[clever forum]

im not going back to COD you kan ddos all you want r.i.p COD for me

[faint oar]

they been doing it all week

[cerulean matrix]

if private servers are private and bi is being attacked, why can't we join servers?

[faint oar]

steamdb.info/app/1874880/charts/
Check the player charts you can see when it started

[clever forum]

use some logik man it dosent add up some companies have lost 25 to 30 persent of their player base due to shietrs so the migrated to either refoger or delta force and bothe geting attacked

[sinful rivet]

Have we tried turning it off and on again yet

[faint oar]

it does show that other groups joined in on this DDoS attack so it could be possible

[cerulean matrix]

reforger backend must be running on Vista

[faint oar]

100% on a linux distro, but funny

[sinful rivet]

Oh Reforger is getting DDoSed because of the Ukraine mods?

Calling my Congressman and asking him for another 10 billion aid package

[zinc smelt]

how long does it normally take for servers to turn on again

[cerulean matrix]

why would a private server with no mods need to connect to bi's servers though? make it make sense

[upper igloo]

lol

[faint oar]

because securities apparently.

[cerulean matrix]

worked out well right?

[robust mica]

This is a ddos attack buddy

[upper igloo]

Because, your pc is way to weak to run a 50 players server, and also it needs auth

[faint oar]

def not

[zinc smelt]

ahhhhh

[faint oar]

that's not what he means

[upper igloo]

Oh mb

[vital sandal]

Billions of dollars in aid to ukraine and they can't spare one fpv drone for this guy? I want my tax dollars back

[cerulean matrix]

not my server, trying to connect to a no mod server, it keeps going offline, online, offline. Why would it need to auth with bi if there's no mods or anything. Arma 3 or DayZ doesn't auth with BI?

[upper igloo]

fr

[upper igloo]

good question, im to stupid for that

[vital sandal]

we should crowdfund a himars strike on his mud hut

[faint oar]

i mean they just have to get in touch with bots ISPs and find the c2

[hard panther]

yes

[cerulean matrix]

it will be a botnet of potentially millions of zombie devices anywhere in the world

[keen socket]

So hows everyone enjoying their sunday!

[echo dragon]

A3 doesn't, DayZ only partially. DayZ official servers have issues, I think community servers are fine

[faint oar]

7k devices and that's just counting one group

[vital sandal]

tell your grandmother to unplug her coffee maker

[faint oar]

they all do.

[sour cedar]

Yo Ruskie boy go eat some tushonka and STOP that botnet joke i want to play right now i'm lock and loaded

[sinful rivet]

All Ima say is if I can't die in Eastern Europe in a video game, I'm gonna act up

[dry salmon]

are the servers down?

[unique cosmos]

yep servers are down

[faint oar]

is your 4head 6inch vertical?

[sinful rivet]

No theyre perfectly fine and stable right now, nothing ever happens to BIs servers.

[peak tartan]

Yeah they're taking a nap atm.

[vital sandal]

you take America's war games away, and we're going to come wargame in your country as soon as our chicken nuggets are done microwaving

[dry salmon]

6 inch deep in your dad

[hard panther]

yes

[upper igloo]

Guys while you wait make some sick game master scenarios

[faint oar]

nope

[upper igloo]

Oh ok

[vital sandal]

Bohemia should take this time to add Protec helmets to vanilla. We have the flight suits. I can't be delta force without my skateboard helmet!

Even arma 3 has a skateboard helmet

[floral furnace]

is the servers still down ?

[peak tartan]

They won't be up for a couple more hours is my guess

[sinful rivet]

No, everything is fine and working perfectly. Nothing ever happens.

[hallow ore]

when will arma reforger servers be back up?

[hybrid echo]

we'll have to wait and see lol

[glad forum]

no one knows at this time

[upper igloo]

long time prob

[zinc smelt]

atleast you didnt just install the game

[unique cosmos]

any news from the devs?

[meager rock]

#announcements

You can check.

[pliant oasis]

Or #socials for a more recent update

still te same news tho...... 😦

[warped tapir]

no way its still ddosed tf

[brave bough]

Wtf is ddos let me play my game I just paid £30 for

[royal owl]

there is a singleplayer story mode with also singleplayer mods...

[brave bough]

Didn’t pay £30 for an offline game dude

[royal owl]

no i get that but i the meantime waiting for servers to go up get used to the game before u just go into a online match

trust there is good singleplayer mods out there

[silver harbor]

mf servers are down pay the ransom if you really gaf

[faint oar]

play scenarios

[brave bough]

I’ve paid my £30 that’s all I’m paying you think I’m paying more for the servers to work lol

[brisk panther]

Go put some hours into flying in GM

[keen arch]

because i was bored i made a status site to see if the website is down and also if its up. Sadly i coudnt add something for the game service directly because i dont have a ip i could check if its down:

https://uptime.fluffy41.net/status/arma

[prisma sundial]

I'm just playing some Hell Let Loose until they fix the servers.

[echo dragon]

Was thinking about doing the same.
There is also https://bohemia.status.anrop.se/

[keen arch]

huh thought something like that doesnt exist

[echo dragon]

its from a Arma group, not official

[brisk panther]

Oeh neat

[keen arch]

looked for it wayyyy to long thanks a lot ❤️

[brisk panther]

I was already looking for a status page on BI

[echo dragon]

Yeah its a bit unfortunate that BI Doesn't have their own

[kindred ice]

Is there an obvious endpoint to check status against?

[echo dragon]

bohemia.net website might be a good starting point.

[kindred ice]

Big brain over here

[keen arch]

huh sadly the site that you sent me is pretty outdated (2 years old) so dont know if you should trust that. Tried to extract the endpoints they are tracking that i can add them to my site but coudnt find them do you have an idea what endpoints they are using?

[echo dragon]

I don't want to post the endpoints, because thats what the attackers are targeting too

I know bacon knows the address 😄

[wintry hill]

https://www.isitdownrightnow.com/bohemia.net.html

[keen arch]

well dont they have it already? and if i google for long enough and search for them i will find them anyways with lookups and other stuff. But you could save me some time and i could make a trustworthy status page for anything ^^

[echo dragon]

Well yes

I also don't know it I would need to look it up, I don't wanna

[sour crest]

Servers aren’t broken. They’re being under DDOS attack from Russia pricks/hackers.

[warm iris]

@sour crest source?

[brisk panther]

Typical script kiddies

[sour crest]

People have also been sharing Telegram channels from the alleged hackers on the Arma Reddit

There’s an x post for war pig gamers about it, discord deleted my post for some reason

[median crane]

Hey guys I don’t know if you’ve heard this but I thought I should come into the discord to ask about but with all the recent surges in the game crashing and not being playable I’ve heard that it was actually Russian hackers going after the game for bitcoin has anyone else heard this or just a few of us

[sour crest]

Yes that’s the news I’ve heard, they get hit from time to time with DDOS. I’ve been playing for nearly a year and a half and The only time the severe look this fucked are during DDOS

Maybe after a major update but not this bad, everything is red ping and most servers are gone

[prisma sundial]

I doubt they are russian hackers, considering that majority of veteran arma players are russians.

[rocky magnet]

it is russians

[prisma sundial]

They have the game in high regard there.

[strange chasm]

Russian hackers don't care about russian gamers

[median crane]

Yea I heard actually Activision has paid some people because of the new cod season coming out and all the cod players have been moving to arma

[rocky magnet]

i have ss of their tele group where they sent pictures of their attacks

[prisma sundial]

Well, i saw some info about chinese hackers.

[mellow warren]

BRO whys it broken again

[rocky magnet]

russian hackers 😔

[median crane]

Makes me laugh thinking Activision may actually be behind such a big ddos attack

[prisma sundial]

If you say so...

[median crane]

Jus makes me ponder on why people go out of their way jus to hit on a game

Like I understand it cause obviously people are dickheads and make lives outta it but it’s annoying

Yea like targeting a game and wanting bitcoin outta it is kind of absurd

[spark dove]

hey guys I just finished combat boots training, but there are no servers at all for me to play on. Is the game dead?

[rocky magnet]

ddos attack

[dark orchid]

Russian hackers what else could it be

[rocky magnet]

they shut down servers for every country but RU according to the group

oh okay i saw some of them bragging about being able to play when they wanted

[median crane]

Of course, as soon as I start getting heavy into this game again, all these ddos attacks are coming out

[rocky magnet]

give it a couple more days in the meantime i would highly recommend playing around in some solo game master to learn the game some!

[broken siren]

Lmao just bought the game not even 25min ago and now this

[waxen hedge]

this has been happening for a week lol

[rocky magnet]

it’s nothing bohemia has control over just gotta thug it out

[median crane]

I’m gunna hold myself to it and send a prayer that it’ll be up and going tonight

[rocky magnet]

they (hackers) just posted a announcement i’ll copy paste

bear with me as it is translated through apple so not the best

“Unfortunately, the post with explanations was deleted, I'm posting it again.
0 Let me clarify something

• attacks are made for fun, not for money, until it has a high load
• the company of this game has not even tried to protect its servers
• I'm not from the game "squad"
• the more skufs whine in the comments, the more desire to see their agony)”

[median crane]

Yea that’s fucked

[rocky magnet]

posted 5:57 pm

[median crane]

Obviously they get a good kick outta it but like go after cod or something

[nova dune]

seen this hours ago

[rocky magnet]

source? i assumed i was in the only telegram they had it may be a clone though if this is old post

[brisk panther]

It could just as well be just being a group claiming it. Like terrorists groups will just claim attacks if it fits their narrative.

[nova dune]

the source? how about my own eyes

[rocky magnet]

very reliable source thank you for the info

gotcha

[strong light]

Last minutes on this Server ! This Game is worst ive ever Seen ! After 3 weeks i finaly delete this trash ! good luck to u guys ! And happy hunting

[quartz kite]

[brisk panther]

It's not an airport

[rocky magnet]

aren’t you a smart one

[torpid scarab]

bye !

[proud swift]

is arma srill down after 8 hours?

[drifting lark]

Yeah

[proud swift]

wtf

[spark dove]

[warped tapir]

chill bro they sleeping

[odd compass]

they enjoy seeing all of you complain about it

[proud swift]

someone go kill this hacker or someshit so we can get back to our regularly scheduled bullshit

[median crane]

It’ll be back up don’t worry bro jus play your other games I know arma is a big hit rn and you really wanna play but unfortunately the whole player base is in the same situation as you

Amen brother

[versed jewel]

can i still host a server for me and my friends to play on?

[dark orchid]

no

[broken siren]

Try it. But I don’t think it will work.

[broken summit]

For PCs... There's always the Arma Reforger Tools, which you can use for single player.

Install:
Steam -> Library -> Add Tools -> Look for Arma Reforger Tools -> Install

Find content to play single player:

• Browse: %userprofile%\Documents\ArmaReforger\addons
• Copy all of these addons (or mods) to: ArmaReforgerWorkbench\addons
• Run Arma Reforger Tools
• Add an addon to play... Browse here and pick one: %userprofile%\Documents\ArmaReforgerWorkbench\addons
• Find the addon(or mod)'s Worlds directory
• Double Click the world file
• The World Editor loads
• Click the Play button

Boom! You're playing Arma Reforger.

[warped tapir]

jusst go in gamemasster in scenarios?

[plain zenith]

how about you scroll up and figure it out

[sharp yacht]

they are down.

[broken summit]

You can try. If if Arma Reforger loads... Can load any addon and play the scenario... As long as your addon is local and does not need to call out to BI backend.

[warped tapir]

all my mods and game master personally works

ii playedd for 20 minutes around 2-3

[broken summit]

I'm a mod dev, so I play in the Reforger Tools all the time.

[warped tapir]

like 3 hours ago for me

i captured 3 points and delivered 1200 supplies! lmao

yeah caause levels and what not

[peak tartan]

C'mon Mann. I wanna sit in a Game master session and wait for 3 hours.

[rocky magnet]

bye what

[hard tundra]

Can this sad sack of shit stop ddosing fucking he’ll

[rocky magnet]

everyone mass report their X and telegram channel

[warped tapir]

wait what is iit give me the telegram and x please??

[upper igloo]

servers still down?

[warped tapir]

alr tyty

[rocky magnet]

np

[warped tapir]

ii have a question does he literally get anything out of thiss

[rocky magnet]

i don’t see what their end goal would be unless it’s just some shitty way of trying to make a political point on the war

cause 0.08 bitcoin is literally nothing and i personally wouldn’t want to spend the rest of my life in a cia black site for hacking some video game servers for allat

[warped tapir]

whatt did bohemia do to thesse people

[rocky magnet]

my guess is it has something to do with the WCS servers but i really couldn’t give you a fs answer

[warped tapir]

bro lost on russia team and got mad 😭

[torpid scarab]

oh i replied to the wrong comment, i wanted to say bye to the guy who whined and wanted to refund

[rocky magnet]

ohh gotcha

there was some dude on their tele begging for them to ddos rocket league too because he lost his game 😭

[nimble shell]

Shit game

[rocky magnet]

yeah i forget their economy is in the shitter

[nimble shell]

True

[rocky magnet]

gonna have to resort to Insurgancy sandstorm for tonight it seems

[warped tapir]

crazy how you can tell someone grew up around the wrong people (parental neglection, bad guardians, ect.)

[rocky magnet]

it’s saddening to see imagine the shit we could accomplish if people simply got along

[warped tapir]

aint no such thing as a utopia bro

[peak tartan]

It'd be amazing if someone made a blackjack mod for reforger.

[warped tapir]

tell klamacz to contact them lmao

[hybrid echo]

there is lol

[warped tapir]

you can already get 90% naked

[solemn ridge]

DDDOS again?

[stiff swift]

Think I'm gonna try hell let loose

[warped tapir]

this guy should go ddos hell let loose or something

[solemn ridge]

I think someone is trying to dddos servers to cut the queue

[warped tapir]

you think, lol

[solemn ridge]

Last time it helped me to jump from 50 to 2

[warped tapir]

been around 8-9 hours i believe since the ddos sstarted, servers dont even show for me anymore

[solemn ridge]

It’s sad

Bohemia need to hire really good DevOps engineer

[warped tapir]

bohemiia should fucking bomb his house

[wise bloom]

any clue when its going to be up, I cant find anything from an admin on the situation

[terse robin]

or just pay for ddos protection...BI has a long history of DDoS attacks dating back 10+ years

just google bohemia interactive ddos

[wise bloom]

trump needs to sign an executive order considering hackers terroists

[warped tapir]

hees bussy kicking illegals lmao and doing tariff wars

[strange merlin]

they are but they are cyber terrorists , fbi cia and we have a cyber group they go after them

[dusky leaf]

Bro we gotta send some arasaka ninjas at this mf. Send the pinkertons or some shit

[cosmic flare]

Send the MilTec

[upper igloo]

So servs still down?

[terse robin]

they aren't worried about a czech game stuido being ddos'd they worried about nation state backed organizations

[copper ingot]

who tf keeps attacking bohemia?

[solemn sapphire]

DDOS the DDOS'ers. Reverse Uno.

[median crane]

Russians

[copper ingot]

leave us alone man fuck! i just wanna roleplay with the homies

[calm rose]

its crazy bohemia doesnt have better cyber securty anaylsts for things like this

[median crane]

It’s been going on for long enough you’d think they’d have something to defend this shit with

[solemn sapphire]

More funding to Ukraine coming in hot.

[granite solar]

Anyone know when ps5 servers will be back up

[warped tapir]

no eta

yeah that one

[umbral storm]

Idk managed to copy it before it did tho

[warped tapir]

mass report hiss account is what ppl are doing

[umbral storm]

That won't help tho that might just get him banned on there but it won't help us in anyway

[zinc smelt]

im guessing servers are still down?

[warped tapir]

ur right i wont say your not but idk. He said some behoemia dev has to contact him to stop ddosing'

[chilly tendon]

if it got deleted in here it might be mods trying to stop the community feeding the fire, guy said about liking all the tears coming their way when people are replying to them. ultimately best thing to do is just check out for a while, let BI sort out what they can, and if the DDOSer wants to keep going its best to not give an incentive for them to keep going on, if they do like causing pain to players

[umbral storm]

They won't he'll probably ask for a ridiculous amount of money to make hin stop

[terse robin]

$81k

[umbral storm]

He asked for that?

[terse robin]

yes

[umbral storm]

Damn what a idiot

[warped tapir]

"👽 Let me make something clear

• attacks are done for fun, not for money, as long as it does not have a high load" yet stiill asked for money

[echo dragon]

So many people get that wrong..
0.08 bitcoin, not 0.8. Order of magnitude off

[terse robin]

hes not asking for $7k

[waxen island]

This ain't right, some of us can't afford rehab

[glad pollen]

How long do y’all think this is going to go on for? I’m getting withdrawals

[royal owl]

is servers still down
