OSRS Competitive Tournament Postponed Due to Attack on Office Network

The planning competitive tournament in Old School Runescape was supposed to be held on July 24 with tournament teams & match-up structure?revealed in previous days. However, as the office network has been attacked, the stream is not available to enter. Thus, Jagex has announced to postpone the competition and take effort to bring out an addition new protection on network.

Runescape competitive tournament postponed as network attacked

DDoS Attack is a long-standing problem in Old School Runescape that needs to be fixed and Jagex has made some effort to fight against it, for example, adding a death mechanics into game to ensure players have chance to retrieve lost items when die from ddos attacks. Unfortunately, there has not been a perfect solution to avoid this attack. And as the highly anticipated competitive tournament was eventually coming, the office network was attacked to make it unable to stream, leading to the result that the competition is postponed until an addition protection is putting out.

New network protection is tested & camera would be improved

Considering the network attack, some players indicated that renting a small venue out for the weekend and move the streaming equipment; etc over to the new place would be a lot better and make more sense. Based on this concern, Mod Matk explained that it is difficult to move everything from the studio to another location. Thus, effort will be put into creating a new protection, but moving would be an option if the testing of the protection shows it isn't up to scratch.

At the same time, as players’ feedback showed that the camera and the small view were bad for viewing the fights in tournament, Jagex answered that if the tournament shows it is a big success they will rework how the camera works. Besides, Mod Ian has been doing some work on the zooming to solve the problem in the resizable screen.

Tournament is popular with over 130k people tuning in

Originally, only 8 teams with 5 players in each team would be selected to join in the competitive tournament. And Jagex also explained that the small group setting is aiming at testing the waters to see if everything can go well, as well as whether the community like this kind of pvp or not. We have to say that this foresight has low down the effect on network attack. However, in the meantime, tournament is proved to be a popular form of pvp with over 130k people tuning in and 22k of those tuning in at the same time.

With the great popularity, tournament seems to become a kind of inevitable trend in Old School Runescape.
