Give it another try, our servers were down for a bit.
Yes, they’re down again. They’ll be back up soon!
Has someone been attacking the servers or something? Seems to be a lot of outages over the last week

Yes.
We should sue these admins for not giving us our favorite servers any faster than that.
This could very well constitute unintentional inflection of emotional distress!We should sue these admins for not giving us our favorite servers any faster than that.
Lol go after the attacker instead.
how are they attacking the server? it doesn't appear to be a typical connect/disconnect attack because the server will abruptly lose connection at once with hardly any lag leading up to it. it also seems strange that sometimes the server will disconnect while its full and there's a queue. ideally, a full server won't be able to be attacked using connection spam because it's too full to allow new connections.
a simple solution would just be to check how frequently certain IPs attempt to connect to the server, and if its like 5 times a second or so, just ban that IP. i have no clue how BF4 servers work under the hood but if they're anything like other game servers, incoming connections will log their IP address. sometimes banned accounts can ddos servers because they will still be able to connect and load into the server before being kicked.

Talk to me @Noddyyyyy
If I had to guess, a classic DDoS attack when likely banned nerd gets bored and remembers he's an asshole starts it up again. There's been times there was random extreme lag without server crashing (probably failed attempt) and nerd mustered up more power. I feel it should be something the data center deals with IMO.
