Anyone getting them? My ex-colleague's furious because he keeps getting DC out of WoW. If I'm still a subscriber, I will be cursing and swearing as well. Diablo 3 folks can't even play the game in SP without getting interrupted. Not sure what their motives are but they sure are assholes aiming paying gamers especially the ones paying subs.

Heard about this last night. I haven't been on Bnet for probably a month or so plus, so I hadn't noticed anything. Same goes for Dota 2.

i havent been able to log in to the ps3 since morning , wanted to watch some you tube videos on the app but cant use it without being logged in sucks

I read if you are found guilty of being involved in a DDoS attack, you have to serve some years in prison. So why the fuck are people doing this? What is the point of hurting innocent gamers while risking your life?

For the lulz. Except it's never fucking funny. It's a royal pain in the ass, and the jackasses perpetrating it would probably be frothing at the mouth from rage, were the situation reversed.

And crying like babies when caught and facing years in prison. If they are sadistic and need their lulz fix, they should just watch epic fail videos on youtube... Blizzard depends very much on WOW for their $$$ so I'm sure they will hunt these guys down like a hungry person searching for food.

Lizard Squad just tweeted:

THE FEDS ARE HERE SHIT

Let's hope it's true and somebody faces a sentence.

So that's why I couldn't play Hearthstone yesterday?


Hope it's true and Blizz should sue their asses to oblivion.

Considering how greedy Blizzard is(they made it so Diablo III can only be played when you are connected to the internet), it would be unwise to fuck with their main flow of cash... That is like fucking with spice production on planet Arrakis while House Harkonnen is in control...

I think I read a fan fic that goes like that. Also nice reference.
Seriously,never fuck with big corps. Remember the intro of System Shock 1 and look what happened.

You generally need to be insanely dumb to screw with international corporations on such a level.

I also love how those jackasses targeted PSN rather than Xbox Live to show how the money is spent on other things than the service. You know, the FREE service that PSN is, at least on PS3.

Yeah, if you are such a troll kind of person that you have to unleash a DDoS attack then DDoS an individual or a small company. Not a corporation like Blizzard. What a bunch of idiots. LOL Hey. Welcome back. :)

I'll be honest, I dun care about the DDoS attacks at all.
What I really am bothered about is these fools mucking around with ISIS flag for fun and giggles.
Guess people getting murdered or raped elsewhere is not serious to them.

If this was vanilla WoW and back in 2005-2006 when I'm playing hardcore and paying a sub, I'll be very tempted to hunt these guys down like a hungry person searching for food. Now though, I still can imagine the anger.
