DDOS prevention
First off, EA. You need to get it together with Titanfall 2. The DDOS attacks are rampant. I am by no means good at coding, but even I know the basics of a fix: player = player(incremented); player...

@TF2Super1018 I know nothing about coding, but as far as I can understand a big part of the problem is that the hacker/s black lists players which causes their ping to spike insanely. Kicking ping struck players might take a load off the servers but the only players that would remain in the end are white listed (hacker approved) players. If this assessment is correct, how do you propose a fix to ensure that black listed players are let into the game while cutting out the white listed ones?
- @ICA_Courier OPs logic would still work since it kicks abnormally high packet count connections NOT high ping counts.
- @CoolFerCats I was under the impression that the servers were getting hit with DDOS attacks, where the attacker sends an excess of packets to a server, which it cant' keep up with.
That's what was happening on the Titanfall servers - Titanfall 2 it's a bit more complex.
HOWEVER.
That does NOT excuse the complete inaction on EITHER of the games to fix the issues. Especially since they are still selling the goddamned games. They need to be supporting the servers every bit as much as any other game they're still selling.
I mean, the demand alone through here, Reddit, etc - you'd think they'd take the hint and fix it, as well as put out more content instead of abandoning the game a year and a half after it launched.
