    counterpoint: DDOS’ing has been around for a while and is something every mid-sized or bigger online service has to deal with eventually.
    If you release an always online product in order to sell your shitty microtransactions and take away control from the player, then you should at least make sure the always online product can stay online and incorporate some DDOS protection.

      I’m pretty sure they have DDOS protection… but it only goes so far depending on the attack…
