Maintenance for the week of December 2:
• PC/Mac: NA and EU megaservers for patch maintenance – December 2, 4:00AM EST (9:00 UTC) - 9:00AM EST (14:00 UTC)
• Xbox: NA and EU megaservers for patch maintenance – December 4, 6:00AM EST (11:00 UTC) - 12:00PM EST (17:00 UTC)
• PlayStation®: NA and EU megaservers for patch maintenance – December 4, 6:00AM EST (11:00 UTC) - 12:00PM EST (17:00 UTC)

So, I guess they broke it...

    PTS still down, 10:06 a.m. CET.

    I don't wanna be in Zenimax' shoes if the update of the live servers are going to result in a similar downtime, without any explanation...

    I don't know, actually I would be very pleased with any downtime, no matter how long as long as they do it right, tbh. They shouldn't be hasted but all my statement was about was to show, like you implied, that we did not even recieve a notification why it is still not online even though it's Monday.

    haha. Maybe it's mostly related to the Character copy they're trying to implement why it takes a while and not even related to the huge amount of patch content.

    Well, it'd be nice if they'd at least inform us that it's taking longer than expected, but no.

    Exactly. THIS is why people are complaining, not because the server is down, but because there's no explanation.

    I could really use some sort of information, even if it just was smth like "we might need another day and the maintenance for the live server tomorrow won't happen".

    Gina Bruno got time to play the guessing game when the NA live server would be back up, go figure.

    I'm shocked no one has even thought of the most probable situation here.

    It's the WEEKEND. Perhaps they got started and realized it'll take a lot longer than expected and decided to finish on Monday.

    So how about TELLING us so? You're not really getting it, are you? That not receiving any information about a prolonged maintenance is way more annoying than not being able to access the PTS.

    Uh, there's a giant yellow sticky that says:
    PTS is offline for extended maintenance and will remain unavailable through the weekend. We’ll provide an update when PTS is back online.

    Early on it was stated when they opened up the PTS that it would not be opened all the time. It's mainly to test the new content, so they take it down for extended periods and bring it back when they are ready to test that new content. They did so a few times when the PTS was still closed to the general player base.

    Hey guys! Right after we wrap up the North American megaserver maintenance, we're going to hop back into the PTS maintenance and try to knock that out as soon as we can.

    Thanks, Gina. By the way, is it down for update 5, or are you still prepping it?

    Could you perhaps update the infobox, seeing as the weekend has come and went? And at least _hint_ about why it was long so down (unforeseen problems? simple laziness?)?

    It says in the infobox, it is down for "extended maintenance".

    Given the competence level ZOS have shown over the past six months, hardly surprising at all.

    Yeah, why's that? I usually have 5-6mb, but now it's around 500kb and seems to take ages.
