Maybe he found a way to bypass this.
You can’t bypass a server check like this.
yeah probably usinf the IPS Client im guessing
Also, you realise you can’t DDoS a Roblox server technically right? A Roblox server doesn’t have an IP, it has a JobId. Else you would need a million server boxes to compensate for every Roblox server (a server costs around $1000) which would bankrupt Roblox.
If you DDoSed a server box, the connection would be blocked by the default gateway of the server farm.
Game servers do have an IP. How do you think UDP works?
Well when he joins the roblox server it must give out some kind of information that hes using to do this
Indeed, he’s stealing servers IP with a ‘ip getter’
You can get the server ip easilly, it’s not hard to trace it when you’re connected to it, so if it is a DDOS he’s prob yoinking and attacking the server that way, as he only can do it when he’s in the server with his client, anything like that is automatically shared with the client because it has to be in order to connect.
That is why parts in roblox for example can be easilly yoinked and localscripts, it’s shared to the client to work, but as I said I doubt this is what he’s actually doing.
It points to a specific server box, not the Roblox server itself. A Roblox server as we see it, will have about 40 other servers also running on the same box.
It’s not really “stealing”, you need the server IP to connect to it / send data to it. This isn’t particularly impressive or crazy.
Thats for an actual server. Not a Roblox server. As I said, a server as we call it is not like a hardware server. If it was DDoSing the server box it would automatically deny the packet and block the VPN because you’d be addressing it all wrong as your trying to address the server box as its physical entity and not a single Roblox server running on its processing power.
If they are DDoSing then they’d firstly be trying to crash the entire server farm, and they’d also be trying to crash the power of the other 100 servers running on the same server box.
That’s not how NAT works. You can very well ddos a single roblox server behind a NAT by specifying the port, and I can assure I’ve seen it working successfully multiple times. The assumption that the router where NAT happens is filtering out non roblox packets is wishful thinking.
I’ve given up trying to explain, just going to let the engineers / admins handle this dilema.
If anyone has ever watched “The Worlds End”, I feel like the AI at the end of that.
Enough of all of this, it is entirely impossible for a DDoS attack to happen on a Roblox game, it is just an exploiter using some sort of exploiter to lag the entire game and fire random events, which is rare to see. Maybe it is possible since I never seen this happen before.
I wouldn’t call it “Ddos attack”, it is just a normal game raid/exploit that is common to many small games on the platform.
The best solution is to prevent a way to stop that, or close down the game and report it to the moderators on the platform to deal with it.
This thread and also this thread has some information about the same question you asked 2 times.
What makes it “entirely impossible”? PlayStation Network has been taken down numerous times for days.
I mean is it could be impossible/possible for someone to DDos one Roblox game and I wasn’t talking about PlayStation at all, don’t know where you got that from.
Your point somewhat illustrates what I am trying to say, it states in that you get the:
Which is going to be the gateway of the server farm, because that is technically what the world sees. I was considering mentioning the JobId before I obviously gave in - because I know this is what identifies the server as an individual. It would be relatively stupid to just hand a Roblox server (this thing:) its own IP if it has a JobId.
To technically DDoS a server, they’d have to do it to the server box - which is why I am saying it shouldn’t really be called this because they aren’t doing that - they are stopping a single “Roblox server” (so a single JobId) from having any processing time.
I mean yes, you could ddos the server box - would it work? Probably not unless you casually have more server power to handle the dishing out of the requests, and by that point the provider will probably realize they are being attacked and handle it themselves (all of this is money to them).
Yeah, I don’t think that was the right packet to point out. It definitely is correct that Roblox game servers run on multiple big servers (otherwise it would be ludicrously expensive).
It’s possible the proxies are being ddosed, but who really knows. It’s likely the person in OP’s screenshots is just trolling, but even then not really sure how firing to a remote a bunch of times can cause your ping to spike up a ridiculous amount, unless you’re doing something extremely taxing on the server.
At least we have another voice of reason - I’ve been constantly trying to say “they wont have their own server box”.
I mean the screenshots imply that all the events are constantly being spammed and hes complaining about ping.
I have a single remote event / remove function design - no one has crashed it so far and I know people have tried. And that exploiters are super unoriginal so the first thing they do is spread their exploit.
If you spam every event in Replicated Storage, you have about 14 chat events and then probably 10 other events which they can use and abuse. People put rate checks on, when in reality your best move is to attempt to at least save the server before you start going offensively to get the exploiter out. The protections wont save you when they finally outsmart you.
Its like they think the exploiters who sit back and find these methods go “damn, they patched my first attack - time to give up they too smart”.
they are not firing any remote event as I said, because I print when someone fires a event.
