Even when Gameservers getting ddoses, aslong you don't run your own root server, the Hoster is responsible for solving ddos attacks.
He can do this with Null routing and blocking the server for 30 min, 6h, 12h or even longer.
Other Hosters like IP Projects (Germany) using service from Accelerated so Null routed is done before the traffic arrives the Network from IP Projects.
When you host your own server, a dedicated 1Gbit port and unlimited traffic (look at ddos politics from the provider) should be enough to limit the lenght of ddos attacks.
Never seen a Ddos longer than 30-90min for myself on a 1Gbit port.

DDoS attacks happen to every game. If it hasn't killed literally every other multiplayer game, it's not going to kill NS2. Not that there's really anything the developers can do about DDoS attacks.

This.
The only thing that UWE can do is if the person doing the DDoS attack is using some sort of spark engine or NS2 exploit to cause the DDoS. If you see this happen, let us know otherwise just have to wait.

I dont want this to happen to NS2.
What exactly would you propose anyone do about it?
