Is Dead By Daylight still down?
Players are reporting further issues with the popular multiplayer title this afternoon. As previously mentioned, Downdetector has seen a spike in reports of the game being down this afternoon.
It had previously been flagged as one of the many titles impacted by the AWS problems this morning. However, issues appear to have re-emerged this afternoon.
Users were continuing to report problems at the time of writing (1.30pm).
What caused the AWS outage today?
Despite the issues hitting a wide variety of websites and apps this morning (October 20) it can all be traced back to a problem with AWS. It provides services to platforms such as Snapchat and other impacted ones.
In an update at 10.27am, British Time, Amazon said: “We are seeing significant signs of recovery. Most requests should now be succeeding. We continue to work through a backlog of queued requests. We will continue to provide additional information.”
The problem was identified as being: “Significant error rates for requests made to the DynamoDB endpoint in the US-EAST-1 Region. This issue also affects other AWS Services in the US-EAST-1 Region as well.”
While the services are starting to return, AWS added: “We recommend customers retry failed requests. While requests begin succeeding, there may be additional latency and some services will have a backlog of work to work through, which may take additional time to fully process.”
