The continuing saga of The War Z’s misfortune – er – continues, although this time the game’s not making headlines for the actions of its creators. Over the past few days The War Z’s servers have been subjected to a variety of attacks, as hackers target the game for whatever reason it is that hackers attack anything. They’re bored, I guess.

Hammerpoint Interactive’s community manager Kewk posted on the game’s forum: “Over the last few days we have been under attack by various forums of malicious attempts to shut down our servers. First we were hit with an attack that would rest our DNS IP so that you could not connect. This was solved a couple days ago early in the morning but took time to actually resolve world wide once the fix went in.”
