SOE Services Offline

TRex · 2011-05-02, 04:52 AM

Unable to log-in this morning , either to the game or the official ps forums. Was fine last night . Anyone else having the same problem ? Maybe the soe hacker is at it again

Station Access has been closed by SOE because of the Playstation Network security breaches.

Either the hackers got far enough into the sony networks to affect SOE systems or the security around SOE and PSN (Playstation Network) are as vunerable as each other.

I was at a tower on Ish when the server closed on me, now the server is telling me that my pw is incorrect

L4G's correct, if you try and access the website you'll get redirected to http://maintenance.station.sony.com/. For reference, at the time of this post, it says:

We have had to take the SOE service down temporarily. In the course of our investigation into the intrusion into our systems we have discovered an issue that warrants enough concern for us to take the service down effective immediately. We will provide an update later today (Monday).

Shame, I just resubbed to PlanetSide yesterday, got all patched up and was looking forward to playing again today.

Obligatory post about fifteen dollars and a day or two of downtime.

We all know the infernal duo of Hamma and Firefly hacked Sony's systems, in an effort to find more information about PlanetSide Next. Unfortunately, it also caused quite a bit of collateral damage.

idk, if this is lash from the PSN hack, i cant help but feel a little worried that it took over a week for sony to see it, because any damage is already done, and it took this long to even see it.

that said in the many many years ive been with SOE, i know this isnt the first weve had a cryptic server down message for something tedious.

Lol, right after I paid for 3 months. That's fucking awesome.

Why you gotta drag my name into this? Everyone knows I was really pulling the trigger on Bin Laden.

Ugh. This reminds me of the end of the movie Hunt for Red October, when the Washington bigwig is talking to the Soviet bigwig. "Dimitri, are you telling me you lost another submarine?"

There is no god.

There's a week and a bit inbetween the two events (original PSN hack and Bin Laden), you could've flown from San Diego to Abbottabad, we have the technology. We all known how quick you TR soldiers can be with your damn mossies - go hack a base here, go kill a mofo there.
