Heres my IP, try flood me: 127.0.0.1

Pretty please! I always wanted to be attacked!

this thread is epic :D keep up the good work Dark Cloud

the funny part is he doesn't even need to post again cause they all keep going on about it LOL thats just sad

CCP i would advise to monitor all incoming and outcoming data from all players. Because you can actually win something. You never know if some 1 could pull off a DOS attack. Not calling names or corps but there are rumors out there. Simply saying making people to lag out/disconnect from tourny matches.

I've been playing this game since March ( IF YOU HAVENT PLAYED SINCE MARCH GTFO OF THIS THREAD) I've been here since before people knew sleek AV grenades were OP against infantry.

Yeah I've been watching old DUST gameplay footage for the past 20 minuets and am honestly wondering what the hell happened to this game. It's a shame that a game that had so much promise has gone this far south so fast.

Skirmish was much more structured and consisted of attack and defense. Skirmish 1.0 promoted team play and forced structured battles with actual killzones. (IE. people didn't have to run around the map looking for the next person to kill) Battles were action packed meaning they were never boring there was alway something to do.

Gun battles promoted skill. Yes there was a rock paper scissors concept, but that didn't stop a better player from besting somebody regardless of their dropsuit or it's meta level.

Sniping took skill it wasn't the BS we have today where little kids hide in the hills and average 1 kill per game by getting that lucky kill off of somebody.

Gameplay was fast and frantic. It was unlike any game released within the past 4 years. It took elements of all the great shooters and rolled into one game. This game was everything COD wasn't but then CCP opened the flood gates and let some noobs ruin what could have been one of the most skill based hardcore unforgiving FPS games created.

********************************************************************

Contrast that with what we have now COD:DUST514 edition

wide open maps with little kids hiding in the mountains as snipers
camping
headglitching into "cover"
slower gameplay than killzone 2 (which had realistic recoil and movement in comparison to most games)
COD style gunfights where whoever sees who first wins
terrible spawn points
ZERO RECOIL STANDARD AR's
terrible burst rifle (people have been asking for 3 round burst since match)
worthless breach AR's gimped beyond the point of use and CCP knows this but allows the noobs to run around with zero recoil standard AR's.
Broken tactical rifles in which people are easily able to use mod controllers with ( my friend has tested it with his mod controller)

This game in it's current state isn't fun to play and down right terrible in comparison to what it used to be. CCP seriously needs to stop dumbing the game down to the point where people won't want to bother with this game, because the gameplay will be no different than the CODs BFs and MOH's.

Noobs that couldn't aim ruined this game.

I still insist that Dark cloud sounds like Arnold Schwarzennegger. Best PR choice just for that reason alone. Now if only we can get him to say "Get to da choppa!"

He wonGÇÖt do it man.

We try and get him to say "get to the dropship" and he nearly slipped up a few times but always catches himself in the last second.

All we get is "Enter the vehicle"

Then he mostly shouts at us for being noobs.

@ Sentient Archon

Tbh who even cares.

Simple fix is just limit its rate of fire to er somthing someone somewhere works out thats maybe ballanced.

I'm sure CCP will get round to it soon.

Its that or we go all buy a kronos or what ever its called.


Seen one in action few days ago and omg its funny.

Its a non issuse in my book because and lol this just shows how scruby autofire tac ar is.

Right get this. In a chat with a member from warriors one of em said they tried it and were like lol wtf so broken and never touched it again.

Now If warriors wont touch it them lol I think the rest of us are safe no ?

PS dont hate on me warriors im glad your in new eden and hope the game improves soon enuf so that you guys stay.

I'm sorry, I've got to ignore the 5 pages of absolute gullible posts to say:

Dark Cloud.... do you even know what DoS means? I mean really?

because if you did you would know that Denial of Service is produced by making fast concurrent connection requests to the victim in question.

our victim in question would have to be the CCP servers..... I emphasise this because you (and everyone else who has posted here -_- ) should know that we all share the same battle server -_-

as a result, DoS'ing the server will not bring the game down for one, it would bring it down for everyone. Not only that but CCP get flagged when bogus connections from UNCERTIFIED NON SONY connections are made. seriously how stupid could this thread be? this isn't halo or the microsoft experience where we are the host. Bridging, router dos'ing.... it's all irrelevant here.

Seriously dumb thread.

Man i got butcher this morning

Was fun tho ( 4 you I expect) ROFL might do rather well in the Semi me thinks. Good luck man.

We've got nothing to prove at all, we're in it for ***** and giggles. We sure wouldn't go to the effort of trying to break up our corp and merge with another just to win a BETA tourney, but what do I know eh?.

I do find it pretty hilarious though how every time there's even mention of cheat or underhand things going on, Imperfects go mental.

Just throwing that out there.

Seriously dumb post. You can spam players with PSN messages to cause them to lag. Thats the only DoS I've heard of. Been victim to it before on MAG like I say. If you don't know what you are on about, shhh.

not only that but common logic would dictate that this form of DoS would be applicable to ALL games, something Sony would take very seriously, which is easily preventable.

this


Also lol at us bothering to use DoS attacks.

This is the same Sony we are talking about that got its network hacked and was down for months? Geez my Sony's must be mixed up.

Oh and BTW Dust has its own servers. Dust is the only game that is not hosted on Sony servers and instead is hosted on CCP servers.

Thats the information I have but I could be wrong .

Edit:

PS: Any company that has a public facing website or server can be a target of a DOS attack. As a person that has worked with IT security and that has been audited by BS 7799 and SOX, I can tell you it is really easy to perpertrate a DOS on any public facing website/server. All ya need to do is figure out the IP address.

Btw... How's DJINN Punisher working out for SI, since he's only there for the BETA tournament?

yes I know how DoS works. I've done it and worked against it both professionaly and casually :p again I don't need reminding what I said.

Well if you worked with DoS and DoS based security you will also know that DoS can be targeted at specific ports. Now assuming each client has its own specific port, it would be easier to identify whcih port contains which information. You can target individual people using that.

There are other ways to reduce a persons network time. All you need to is use the concept of mass mailing the same person. That causes a server overload which slows down the ping time between a client and server and hence the term "lag". Remember Nimda or Code Red?

@ Captain-Awesome.

You post like your super angry all the time bro. lifes not so bad why no happy face ?

Here take one of mine

Nerd talk but why would you need to get thier IP from sony ? Cant you get peeps IP's other ways ?
