Some of it was DDOS but a lot of it was just server overload which sucked horrifically. DDoS was its own thing because I did have trouble logging in during those times.
ETA: also not to sound like a churl the update about a month in did fix a lot of the lag. Until then it was just really bad and I was routinely running into people in df roulette also suffering from it which just made things even harder. But I will say SE did work on it and put a fix out that resolved most of it within a month. I feel like part of the challenge may have just been I was on the “overflow” datacenter for NA and SE underestimated how much “overflow” we would be seeing. Cause about the majority of people I was paired with in df roulette during this time were travelers which isn’t the norm on Dynamis ime.
Some of the details in these are kind of interesting. I assume the pitcher and plate/bowl it’s on were for washing up in the morning. Just fun to see the items put in the backgrounds that were normal for the time and not so much now.
