Outage – MMO Fallout

As of 12:30 p.m. on January 30, Valve’s servers are down pretty much universally and globally preventing players from accessing the store or any of its functions, downloading games, and affecting inventories and game coordinators for Valve’s titles. Looking at the charts on Steamstat.us, Valve’s services were suffering from recurring minor issues for several hours before the whole service just tanked.

There has been no public acknowledgement from Valve on the outage which isn’t completely out of the ordinary.

If you’re looking to play any of Daybreak’s games, you might want to take the night off. At the moment, Daybreaks game servers and their websites are experiencing major connection issues which appear to be stemming from a coordinated denial of service attack. The official Daybreak Twitter account has acknowledged the problem and notes that staff are working to fix issues.

According to the Norse attack map, however, there is a massive sustained DDoS attack originating from Mersin in Turkey aimed at the western coast of the United States. Whether or not this attack is related to the server downtime is unknown.
