On July 9th people noticed (reference) Sony had updated their EOL server list to include Infamous 2 and Festival of Blood servers which house all it's user-generated-content in the way of custom missions. I couldn't find anyone trying to archive the data, so I did it myself.

Infamous 2's UGC (IA) - 187,450 maps/missions

Festival of Blood's UGC (IA) - 16,008 maps/missions

This was an absolute slog. There isn't an API endpoint for getting all maps (that I could find) so I had to run through search terms for every download. For Infamous 2 that was 12k+ searches (most with thousands of results) and 4.9k+ for Festival of Blood. The all* is because there are absolutely missions I missed, but at the end I was getting 1 new mission for every 20 terms searched (on average).

There's currently not a drop-in replacement for the servers (I have a working proof of concept already but it needs some polish), but you can still manually add the files to RPCS3 or a CFW PS3.
