Don't being worried, the server say "there is already someone connected" but it's because you was logged when Citadel stopped and your character "stayed" in the server, I tried to connect with my other accounts and I could reach the characters page but couldn't connect, the problem is just from the Citadel server, they got ddos or crashed or something other like maintenance maybe ^-^/

The district numbers where low then suddenly became nearly full, then the whole server crashed. Then after like 40 minutes there was an update - around 11k items to download.

Though server is still holding the same error message.

Nope, no maintenance or they would tell us.

Apologies everyone,

 

Since Christmas, we have been getting hammered by a new form of DDoS attack. Our engineers are working nonstop on a way to mitigate it.

 

Thanks,

Matt

Was about to ask about this just now so thank you for replying.

 

Appreciate it, I can still play but at times it does lag some (even thought it was my internet).

 

Alright.

Hi everyone,

 

I’m sure you have noticed consistent outages in APB since Christmas. Unfortunately, we have been getting hammered by a new form of DDoS attack, and it is taking our networking team time to work up and test a new defense.

 

For the time being, I’m going to put the servers on Mitigation, so at least things are up and stable. I honestly hate turning on this form of mitigation because it adds significant latency.

 

Apologies. Bear with us.

 

Thanks,

Matt

 

Edit: Apparently my network engineers have determined that the large Citadel crash this morning was an issue with our provider. We’ll keep watching things.

Forgot this link to the thread.
