The last two days playing pso online have been a complete disaster. Lag is terrible, disconnections are not only frequent, but almost inevitable. I am a former d2 player, and blizzard once had a problem similar to these symptons and the problem was that hackers had sabotaged the servers. For this reason and the ones I note below, I believe that someone has, or has been trying, to hack the sega servers.
Besided the incredible lag and disconnections that I forementioned, five (5) very weird events lead me to this conclusion:
1. In the lobby, my guy started running around all by himself. I was not touching the controller and he was still running. I was able to make him fall down on purpose, but once he got up he started running again. It lasted for about 2-3 minutes. It was quite amusing actually.
2. I went into a game yesterday, and my character started talking by himself. He started saying things like WTF, and DIE, and then a bunch of blank messages. Once again very weird and quite amusing.
3. I was in another game, and someone joined. After waiting through the lag of nearly 5 minutes for the person to register as having joined the game, my screen all of a sudden flipped upside down. I was standing on the sky, and the forest was below me. I could not move from my spot, but I could move within the spot and access my menu. I was also able to talk to ppl and they were able to talk to me. It lasted for about 5 minutes before I decided to pull the phone cord out and disconnect myself before my dc reset and I lost some valuable stuff.
4. My equipped weapon kept changing on me. I had spread needle equipped, and next thing I know I was using my stag cutlery which was in my inventory. And then after a few minutes it switched back ? very weird
5. I called sega to find out wtf was going on, and they were very unimformative, almost secretive about it, as if they were attempting to prohibit information from leaking out to the press.
I have heard some people experience similar episodes of the running around the lobby, but has anyone else experienced any of the other wierd episodes on my list?
Before I get flamed, I should mention that my character is totally legit level 90 Humar, and every item on me and in my bank is legit. Also another note - before anyone asks - No i was not stoned or drunk, this really happened. lol
I welcome any comments, and or other theories. Thanks for listening
