Post #1Having issues joining mine and other servers is it another DDoS attack like yesterday?
-
-
Im worried it is.
-
yes
-
So does this mean I will lose my hours of progress again? Yay! i love it when they backup plans to prevent data loss! yay... sucks -_-
Buy RUST now, constant ddos attacks and you can't play
--- Edit ---
Nah it's cool guys, things are back up and the server didn't have data loss this time
-
Its not their fault they are getting hit by a DDoS, lay off them.
-
I don't mind the DDoS issue i was being patient it was the fact i expected data loss again but I managed to get on and my stuff is still there so it's okay
-
I guess its back to making bad jokes with Jonnymad for the next 6 hours =/
-
Well it was fixed now seems it is back.
-
not like its an alpha where they warn you that can and will happen all the time anyway
-
Official Servers = Thanatos, shibbi and Blackrain hacking or
unofficial Servers = DDOSin every night.
How can someone have 2 VaC bans, clearly hack and still manage to play on official servers?
-
It came back, then gone again.
-
It seems it's intermittently back this afternoon.
-
Keep getting disconnected every 2 mins or more..
-
Yup, the trolls are back. Guess we got a few good hours of play time in the early morning.
-
Yep the ddos has started again. Maybe now they will do something about it. Like drop Ulink cause they are garbage.
-
THIS ISNT BUCUZ ITS ALPHA MEAN THAT SOMEONE US FUCKING MAD AND DDOS US!!!!! FOR FUN
-
They have a lot of money and just make a new steam account and rebuy the game.
Trust me, in other games it's that rampant. Some people just want to fuck up other peoples day for the hell of it, even if it requires them spending money doing so.
-
Wankers hacking = servers getting DDOS'ed = us nice people can't play Rust.
Devs/mods ect couldn't careless about hacking atm they leave it to VaC which bans in waves, but they cant seem to comprehend people couldn't give a fuck about forking out £25 a month to rebuy the hack/Rust or even just £15 to rebuy Rust.
Until there is more of an active punishment for hackers the game is going to be in an extremely bad state and end up the same as warZ imo which is a shame because I love this game to bits.
Edited:
nope, he is still using his original account which was banned twice.
-
I'm sure the Dev's and all are doing there best to get on top of the situation.
Just give then a little time. They are not going to fix this over night.
-
Over night? Guessing you have just started playing.....Blackrain is a known hacker and has been doing it for at least 3+ month
-
Yeah the kids are back, im seeing this issue since some minutes again on a lot servers !
-
They are at this problem, doesn't anyone in this thread read their latest news?!

-
The Dev's are trying hard, give them some room to do their daily needs. Or if you're too impatient then go make your own version of ULink and let the Dev's use it.
-
I read someone with a cracked version can still get on official servers if they type in the IP manually
-
Yep - and I've highlighted a problem we're currently having (as game server owners) where we can't even ban people who are hacking / cheating: http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1339129 (Granted that the 'View Players' seems to be working as of yesterdays patch)
I just hope that my idea / suggestion gets noticed and implemented.
-
Unsure if its another issue, but Thanatos was hacking on Official UK 4 tonight, however his name didnt show in the server list. Blackrain did however with his 2 VaC bans, latest of 14days.
-
The solution is simple, spend a bit more money and get some Ddos proof servers. I don't see eve online, aion, dayz or cod/bf series being ddosed left right and centre.
-
Most server host providers offer that already but seeing as Rust is still in early development they've yet to get the necessary tools to make it happen. Give it time and us as server admins will be able to deal with hackers/cheater/griefers more easily.
-
Yeah - it's definitely buggy. We had a player on our server earlier that also wasn't in the server list but was clearly infront of me.
We really need a way to output information on the players in the server like I suggested in my topic. That, at least, allows us to administer our own game servers until they're VAC banned. I'm on my server every day with the players and they have an email address to contact me when we get a hacker.
This isn't a traditional DDoS attack - protection won't do anything. It's a bug/exploit within the uLink library which needs fixing.
-
-Edit-
If that is so then i hope they fix it soon, thanks for the info
-
Indeed I might be new to Rust, But I'm not new to alpha phase of a game.
It takes a lot of work to deal with hackers and as I stated yesterday even harder to deal with
DDos attacks because all they can do is ban the IP address of the attacks.
But it will not stop them from getting new IP addresses and doing it again.
If I remember DayZ it took months to get on top of the hacking in Sept 2012 and again in Dec 2012.
Just give them some time.
-
Time = Money
Server owners do not get compensated for time lost due to circumstances such as these. New players are buying the game, installing, and finding that the first experience they have with the game is that they are unable to play.
This is a serious issue that needs to be rectified asap.
-
I do understand where your coming from, As a server owner myself.
But the facts still stand, It take time to fix these problems.
-
u dont understand whats alpha is...
maybe u have played alpha games their working from beginning fine but a alpha is to test the game (performance etc)
and if people buy a alpha and play 5min and says " aww this game is crap never play this again" then stop playing alpha games 4 ever
-
Fujamate another retarded alpha post? gj
-
This has nothing to do with alpha... this is because Rust are using uLink. It has absolutely nothing to do with alpha.
-
we need to kill them with stone!
-
it is a buffer attack, just like a standard DDoS except the uLink library exposes the servers to it because of a bug/exploit. A Regular DDoS could take down a few rust servers individually but not all of them collectively (Though they could take out the master list servers)
-
#deedaws with the swags and yolos
-
These are some of the worst F8ckin people on the planet nothing better do then ruin other people games, just pathetic spamming servers with corrupt data, this is full blown sabotage.
I am gonna hope really hard these hacker douchebags die very slow, painfull deaths very soon
