The attacker target was to interrupt connection between the server and players.
The DDOS attack means that the server is flooded with hundreds of network packages.
There was no access to any of our data.
For the payments, we are not storing such, they are processed by payment providers.
Please follow our announcements here:
The server has been targeted again in the other way.
It's being investigated now.
The issue was caused by a serious DDOS attack (~450 Gbit).
We were able to temporary mitigate it for now, and will be monitoring it further.
The server has been started.
We can restore ROFL progress, in that case whisper Byte in game.
Dear citizens of Paradise,
we experienced a network issue which caused you being disconnected from the server.
The game server is still running, no data loss or security breach found.
It's being investigated now with our datacenter.
You will get them from starter's bag at some point.
Keep leveling your char, and open them.
They are also obtainable in Tempest Height event on Dust Devil, but your level may be too low for that.
You can obtain megaphones from packages during your gameplay or our IS.
There are no bots on COA, not even a single one, most likely.
Players commonly leaving their characters in Atlantis, sometimes being AFK sometimes doing things on other chars.
Good luck with finding a guild! 
The Legacy version of the game had a huge excitement at the beginning, but after time things changed.
One of the reasons of closing Insomnia was not enough interest in the classic content anymore.
When there were just 5 players logging in to the game daily, we decided to close it.
We also noticed that a lot of Legacy players moved to Arcadia.
Since the closure, we decided to fully focus on the Arcadia, and the plan didn't change since then.
That was a good experience, and a nice journey for our Team and the Community.
We are planning at some point to implement changes for players which liked nostalgia directly to Arcadia.
