NOW P2P becomes e real problem - DDOS attacks! | Forums

Besides all the discusions about the connectivity issues, P2P becomes a real security Problem.

P2P connects the players together. Every player is abble to see the IP adress of all the other players in the game. Some hackers now use this information to dsiconnect players they dont like. Or players who are hard to beat so they can easily win the game. For faster leveling or a perfect win ratio.

Well, dw they are telling themselves how weak they actually are by doing that, each time they do this, each time the inferiority complex grow inside their little heart and feel how small they really are at the same time

What I am really afraid of is, that attacking your IP is so simple that every salty kid could do this. Plus P2P give them your IP for free. And that's something ubisoft can't punish. Only avoid it by hiding the IP. But as I know, this is impossible by using P2P.

Worst case, this salty Kid hates you so much he attacks you every evening till he gets boring... this doesn't affect only for honor, this is about your whole internet connectivity.

If something like this really happens, i would like to know how responsible uibsoft for this is?!

Yes. I also read this on reddit. And after I read this I realized that I had noticed that more than once my self. I played a lot of games (+40 hours) and there were a view where all high prestige players left the game right now when it starts...

Just think about ranked games like in overwatch. That hackers could have a free win all the time... what a future!

Just feel sad to them...who care about their win rate anyway, i don't even care mine...i just feel sorry for their lives, must be so hollow and gross.

This is very important so make this visible for the devs. If they didn't know right now!

Pretty sure there isnt much Ubisoft can do about it since it s P2P game...

I wonder if the game tracks wins by forfeit (other player disconnects). If so it'd be easy for the devs to find these accounts and make them buy a new copy of the game.

Pretty serious security concerns here. Things come to my mind like the streamer that got "swatted" because of his p2p connection on COD.

Especially given the level of frustration this game can cause it's players. I can see this being a huge problem.

And then you have Ubi support telling players to place hardware into the DMZ to achieve this bs "green NAT." Which will inevitably leave them more vulnerable.

Smh.. I could see this game and how they've handled it causing some legal trouble for Ubi. Best get it sorted.
