EA’s Origin servers have been the latest victim of the hacking group Lizard Squad. Players across a range of EA titles like Titanfall and Dragon Age: Inquisition have reported difficulties in logging and finding games online. That is, when they can actually get online which the vast majority of players can’t.

The official Origin Twitter recently responded to problems with the servers, stating that, “We are looking into restoring services as quickly as possible. Thank you for the heads up!”

Over the past week, Rockstar Games and Xbox Live have both been hit by DDoS attacks by Lizard Squad hackers, locking players out of games. Though the issues have since been corrected, it seems that these attacks won’t be letting up any time soon.

What are your thoughts on the hacking incidents and have you had any trouble connecting to Origin? Let us know in the comments below and stay tuned for more information.
