Servers down AGAIN

[CMDR Redcrest]

Given that Facebook started having issues with content time-outs at about the same time as the ED servers went belly-up (and the server failure seemed to get worse over a few minutes before total failure) it would suggest a possible DDoS against the Amazon cloud service.

Frontier's servers can't be totally down we can still use the forum....

If we were actually paying for our online access to ED it would be scandalous. As we aren't, it is just an inconvenient loss of service.

It was mind-blowingly cool back in the 80s.

What a mixed blessing

Where is the best place to follow updates on the down time/log in issues?

Wanted to do some bounty hunting ;(

P.S. Update 3.3 is great thanks FDev

It's all my fault. everything went sideways as soon as I decided to log in.

 

[Einar Donarsson]

I cant even start the launcher.

 

[PiLhEaD]

I cannot start even Launcher ...

Same here.

 

[Neutronium]

Bring back offline mode please. :/

But ... we are at offline mode now..

 

[Ebel]

I know who's fault it is!

I'm going to switch to Star Citizen where they appreciate there players time!!!

I guess it's not that bad if we're able to tell jokes

On reddit there are lots of reports over the last 24hr of Oculus downloading old versions of Oculus Software as well as Elite v2.3 - seems to be an Oculus glitch

My Windows launcher also wants to download a new copy too. The Oculus software doesn't usually need the launcher and auto-updates, that is what has happened here I think. The Oculus software has detected a new version (even though it isn't) and started to install it.

I think I have managed a couple of hours at the most since 3.3 dropped

Just not funny......

I bet you anything it's got nothing to do with the distribution servers. All the master game servers - and clients - just got a heafty update that includes at least 1 x brand new mission server and it seems a new comms server, added too.

I reckon I had three months pre update without a single drop. So really? Gobsmacked if a new build takes a few days to settle down? OK. Fairy Nuff. You win.

Yeah. I thought it was a problem on my end. Can't log in, Invaid JSON, Can't sync Time Server, etc...
I didn't see any announcement on the forum where frontier is supposed to announce these things.
