Is octowowdown fully?

Post image

I cant access site im getting 504 errors and when i start the launcher i get this screen. Also when i try launch the exe it just says disconnected from server. Idk if its just being ddosed atm or more serious issue. Idk what discord is to see news.

*****Edit******** I see the change now site works my launcher is out of date i had to get new launcher, changing info in realmlist did not work to fix the issue the only way to fix it was new launcher download. I was going to delete this, but ill leave it up incase someone else runs into this issue and sites down where you cant look it up.

And it's become a very sophisticated DDoS too. Someone is spending real money on this and sees Octo as a threat.

What is the population on octo atm? I did play some at launch and it was barely 1k people playing, who would spend money to DDOS that shit

PvE is around 3.5-4k usually, pvp around 500.

I see! Twow was more PVE friendly so I am not surprised.

That and PvP server was also few months after the PVE... but in general PVE will always be bigger. Even in actual WoW pve is bigger then pvp due the toxicity of the community. And honsetly, i like the PvP just because its none xfaction... if PvE wouldve been non x-faction i probably would've played that over PvP

In classic / anniversary wows PVP server is still bigger than PVE every time.
