ddos is still active.

[$pirit]

just so we are all aware.

[Ebola-Chan]

I'm uninformed on this situation. Do you have any summarised version?

[𝔒𝔤𝔯𝔦𝔪]

So what's happening now? The servers just instantly crash?

[Wiezus]

there is a exploit to remotly shut down servers.

[CigarMan]

all powerful valve can't fix it?

[4EverBadAtPortal2]

Luckily, the servers in my region work fine.

severs are extreemly old and valve doesnt have people dedicate to one project and so only a few peeps maintain the game every so often, they patched out ddos exploits like 3 times nevermind having to deal with TF2

which who knows whats going on with valve anymore because acroding to a tyler mcvicker vid that they dont have enough man power to go around fixing the bot issue

I really wonder why people would bother DDOSing L4D2 servers.

Like really, why.

They should do it on Diablo 4 servers instead, that would be considered community service.

But what does attention gives, that's the question.

I get it, when I'm bored or banned from YouTube comment section, I go on steam to troll a bit, but even then, why L4D, this game is perfect in every way.

It's not about attention, it's about the power trip of pissing off literally thousands of people.

Honestly it's probably just a duckwit who got kicked for versus for being a spastic a few to many times and wants some revenge.

I'll give him this tho, he must be a fairly talented programmer to pull all this off.

I doubt it, people who kick in versus loves DDOS, Swatting and DOXXING people, if they could pull off murders I'm sure they would too.

The dude behind it was probably angry that a Louis was gone searching for pills in a dark corner of the map and instead of votekicking, he attacked the servers and swore the destruction of Humanity because he lost 50 points in the score.

Got anymore info on this?

My servers have been getting hit too:
https://streamable.com/781yaz

This was after installing Sir's IP tables[github.com] on all our servers ^.

Anyone have suggestions for a VPS provider that offers locations in the EU, asia, and NA? We're currently using Vultr, $5/month plan. NFO was great in the past but they only offer 1 EU location, and no asian locations.

(I will admit I don't understand vultr's $10/month DDOS protection. Since all VPS servers are on the same physical dedicated server I'm not sure how they filter out DDOS for one VPS and not all of them within the same dedicated server space, so I haven't bothered with that.)

Hey Dustin. I don't think SirPlease updates/maintains their public IPtables.

Line 107:
-p udp -m length --length 0:28

This should be:
-p udp -m length --length 0:32

As well, you should try adding these:
-p udp -m length --length 46
-p udp -m length --length 60

[prezesik_3]

just set to local, not official dedicated.
