You cant ddos a game but you can use a lag switch which when you get caught the game you are lag switching will console ban you off there game and will force you to buy a new console to play there game and in my opinion its not worth having to buy a new console

If you are doing a DOS or DDOS attack on someone else then yes you can get banned, Causing a game to lag to cheat can also lead to a ban.

Yeah. You are better of just playing the game normally, like it is meant to be played, that way you know there will be no bans

DDoSing is illegal so I don't advise you do it.

Plus, there's really no reason you should be trying to hit people offline anyways.

I'm pretty sure you won't get a console ban (unless you have already had previous accounts banned on that console) however, if they found out, I'm sure then they would ban that account, but I don't think I have ever heard of someone being console banned for making a game lag.

To put it simply, no. There's no way to trace an attacking IP, and even IF they did have a way, anyone who even remotely knows what they are doing will have spoofed servers. The flood will use spoofed a IP and any ping trace would lead to the (dead) spoofed IP. There's no way for Microsoft or Sony or anyone else to identify you as the person flooding the lobby (unless you're using your own connection to flood the lobby, which wouldn't even work anyway, so nothing will happen to you

To think you cant get caught is just **** dumb, it is a crime. You would get arrested before you got banned. TBH, neither is likely . Kind of pathetic really

You can get arrested, it's illegal to tamper with peoples internet, just because your friend didn't get caught doesn't mean you can't get caught.
