    Amazon isn't generally pushing 9gbs of data client side to a people with varying system requirements during their maintenance which is required in order for the client side code to talk to the server side code.

    As for how long - the cheeky answer is "soon"tm. The official answer is "longer than normal" as they are making some backend (server side) changes as well that are required before that are not part of a typical maintenance and push client side code cycle.

    Thank you!

    Is there anywhere to discover approximately how long the patch might take? Is this going to come back up in an hour, or is it likely closer to six hours? Or all day?

    Depends on what you call "all day". For me it is taking all day as I'm in Europe (from 2pm to what is now 6:30pm..). It has already been over 4 hours and the launcher hasn't even let us start patching. So yeah..

    That being said many MMOs still have down time. ESO's downtime has gotten progressively less. It used to have TWO downtimes a week. This is a MAJOR patch update, normal that it is down and normal if it takes a while. Even if I AM sitting here bored wishing it would at least start patching.

    It's happened every single time I've been online for maintenance, so it doesn't bother me anymore as I never believe it, but it's a really bad look for companies to give incorrect time estimates. 3 hours ago they said the patch notes would be up in "an hour or 2". You just *** people off when they come back and you don't have what you promised. And it's one thing if it's just an anomaly and things happened that weren't expected, but every single time the patch notes are up well after their promised time. You'd think they would learn already.

    Well, it's not like they're finished writing the update yet...

    They have to apply the update before they know whats in the update.....

    Patch notes aren't that useful for ESO, a lot of things are missed entirely, others are not fixed at all and any new content probably won't work properly. Although though it is handy knowing how big the download will be in advance, or not in this case.
    If real life had a block function i would go out more.

    Proud to have spent a year paying to BETA test ESO for consoles.

    We are currently pushing Update 6 live to the North American megaserver. We encourage everyone to open up the game launcher now -- it will begin automatically updating to Update 6 as soon as the patch is available, before we open the megaserver. We'll have the full Update 6 patch notes up within the next hour or two.

    I don't know, though. What if it isn't today???

    What if this was all some kind of elaborate early April fools joke. When it comes back up it will be with wrothgar and the imperial city. Sorcs will be awesome and pvp will be finally be balanced.

    Well they clearly have put the update on after all this time. So are they having some major issues? Maybe we will get an update on the update soon. :smile:

    Only for an ever increasing yearly "fee", and a probe up your backside. No, no, don't argue, your betters have decreed it.

    On the West Coast and download just started! Yay!

    I know some will still not believe it, but it is certainly downloading what appears to be about 13gb worth of data. Maybe it is just all new horse armor! <joking>
