APB Reloaded Falls Victim To DDOS Attack

apb reloaded copsAPB Reloaded has been experiencing connectivity and latency issues with their console releases since they soft-launched on March 30th. According to GamersFirst, the slowdowns were primarily due to memory issues. The severe lag that plagued the game over the past weekend were, however, due to an entirely different reason. The team explains:

“At the start of the weekend we began seeing an issue on our PS4 environment. We initially thought it was due to the recent patch or seasonal event but as time went on the issue spread to our XB1 environment as well. We have now identified the issue to be related to a new type of DDOS attack against our servers which spams our network and is causing latency and connectivity issues within the game.”

According to a Tweet by the developers, the issue has been resolved and both Xbox One and PS4 servers are up and running. Check out the APB Reloaded official site for more details.
