Alexander 12 Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Ever received DDoS threats while playing a game? Even worse, have you been taken offline by a DDoS attack, if so how long for? Was this caused by a hacker or cheater ingame or just another gamer in your lobby/session? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kita 2 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 I have been DDoSed only one time but there were many threats. It was back in the time when I have played Counter Strike 1.6 in some community server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jy76 1 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 No, but DDOS attacks had brought down a hosting company I used once. In fact, it was for a whole month! Anyway, obviously they are a bad deal and too bad they also happen in online gaming. On 7/9/2018 at 4:31 PM, Kita said: I have been DDoSed only one time but there were many threats.

Vaughen 2 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 I haven't really gotten any DDos attacks specifically while I was gaming and risking items, although I've had it sadly happen to a few of my friends. I think it really goes down to what programs you are using wheneever you play games and how much trust you have in those around you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, I never had to face such situation. I play PUBG and FiFA online, and the games are stable. I heard some games like Titan fall had once DDOS attack. But never experienced personally. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Team EmpireKicking 155 Posted August 20, 2021 Management Team Share Posted August 20, 2021 DDoS while gaming can happen or in many cases you are on a high demanding server while you have people also on the server that are using mods to hack into the game and make your life so badly wrong Anyway I see it all the time in GTA online and also PubG had allot back when I was playing it. CSGO used to be very bad but they have improved and able to stop it. Bayside Gamers Feedback Survey If I helped you out in anyway can u please click this up button arrow . Thank You!!!

Joshua Farrell 1 Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 I personally haven't been hit by a DDoS while playing games, as I am not someone that generally ticks others off that much in games. Though my oldest brother has been known to get into hacking contests and DDoS wars with people that tend to cheat in game. He claims he does it to force cheaters from being able to play, but I think it is more out of finding it fun, than getting the point across.

Heatman 4 Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Any gamer that's heavily into playing online games must have witnessed a DDoS attack once in a while. I have seen it happen countless times when I was playing GTA online. I read online where someone said same thing about playing Elder Scrolls Online but it's yet to happen to me in the game.

Ja sa bong 2 Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I've never experienced any DDoS attack when I'm playing video games. It's only when I'm using forums I've experienced it and it's very frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortie861 10 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 I have been threatened many times with a DDOS attack when gaming online, none of them ever go as far as that and I usually just laugh and brush them off when I receive those kinds of threats. I have found that these threats usually come from someone who can't get their own way and so threaten hoping it will scare the other person, after a while you become immune to it.
