I am pretty sure most of you are wondering what is going on with the Hamster tonight. Even though this is an info that more of us should not be announcing, we figured the community should know about it.
We are under massive attack right now and all our services have been affected. It is not just Sword that has been affected. We have been trying to combat this attack since the past 6 hours and we have finally been able to reduce the impact on our systems. IT is now trying to bring the game online. However, we do not have an ETA at this point. We are trying to bring the services back online as fast as humanly possible. -------------------- |

Mhmm - whilst it s most annoying servers are down (for most of the players)
DOES this "massive" attack affect out account security? Should we worry about our passwords or something? Not sure how security works on your side? answer please? |

It's either DoS attack or Hackers. Either way, glad something was posted to let me know why I can't log on. Thank you Raiden.
