New server update on PC restores stability

3 months ago

Quick anti-cheat update:

This Tuesday, we found that hackers had found a way to force a PC server crash, leading to PC server instability. A new server update has since been built and deployed. Monitoring the situation today, we can see that stability seems to be returning to normal levels. Thank you for your patience!

" we found that hackers had found a way to force a PC server crash " could we have some more infomation on what this statement actually means.... and maybe some sort of time frame about when you found out, and when hackers found out..? Thanks this would help us help you monitor the PC server instability..

So servers being crashed you fix right away but servers being ddos attacked and made to rubberband, drop all players, disconnnect from ea backend but not crash is okie dokie and still nothing to worry about, huh?

Good find...no idea how forcing a crash benefits anyone. There are still too many hacks running, need to break the business model somehow EA to put an end to it.

Usually Any exploit someone can do they will, In what gain I am not sure, but can be to get people on there server in order to recruit, or simple troll'ing. We kicked some Clan out for cheating and they DDOS the server so most likely with what was said above
