Wow, can you guys make an official post that is only for official information? Please. How is anyone suppose to locate the posts related to "updates" on the issue? They are getting buried by the plethora of non-official posts.

You can also click the arrows to the left and right of the Z icon on the right side of staff posts - that will take you to the next/previous one within the thread.

that would require people to think of something/someone OTHER than themselves. If you played this game for any amount of time you should know that just does not happen in ESO world.

Steam would not launch. Then I launch TESO and cannot get it. I thought my internet was broke. But thankfully it's not.

Don't any of you nerds have work or school? It's 12PM on a Wednesday.

Actually no. No work today. Which is why I'm pretty irritated. I planned on picking flowers until I wanted to jump off a bridge.

Now I just want to jump off a bridge anyway.

I took vacation so that I could play this week. This morning's patch did nothing but aggravate the DCs.

I once paid like $30 to get an early access to Black Desert b2p server, took a vacation when they said it will be launched, so they launched f2p servers and told us we'll soon get what we have paid for, and after two weeks they told it's not going to happen for the next 6 months but we're welcomed on f2p and will get a premium access for one year. So it could've been worse.

I always enjoy reading the outrage because as someone that works in I.T. i understand when things can go wrong and why maintenance has to occur even if it is unexpected. Just the other day I had to make a fix to our antispam on our email server. So i told the office employees that email would be down for 5 minutes. They flipped, so i simply said, "I can either take the email down for 5 minutes, or for the rest of the day your inbox can be filled by every spam type message out there."
They then became silent and accepted the fact that I was the technology god and the trifling mortals should leave well enough alone.

Cool story bro, but you've should think about such things before everything gets f up. Also, use freaking HA clusters to have an option for zero-downtime maintenance.

Just to make sure we're all on the same page, the original ETA given some-pages back was that the issue would be resolved in a few moments. However, we ran into an issue, and are currently working on figuring out a new ETA. We can confidently say that resolution will no longer be a few minutes, though.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!


HOW TO HECK IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THIS HAPPENED NOW TWO TIMES IN A ROW RIGHT AFTER THE MAINTENANCE?????

Oddly enough I was just trying to login to Steam...it's down as well. This might be some sort of attack on gaming sites in general.

Same Steam issue here. (yawn)

So... how's everyone's day going aside from this?

Well.... my daughter and her husband are visiting. They live on the East Coast, he's active duty USMC. Last night I showed him ESO on PS4 (I play PC). This morning I went to log into my unused PS4 account to give him whatever gold I have that I'll never use because I am so not a console player. But guess what? I couldn't log in.

Do I break it to him now that this isn't uncommon or do I just let him play and let it mess with his head? =D

Thanks for the update.


I am curious. Doing no changes on the PC server, it encountered a problem. Then you resolved that and encountered another problem. To encounter these problems when doing no maintenance is quite transparent of instability. The amount of 'Emergency' maintenances also reinforces this. Please dedicate resources into prevention, not just when it breaks down.

*SIGH* So hours, in other words? (Again.)

Don't worry, when you said "several minutes" nobody believed you anyway. Here on PC EU we're always expecting 8 hour downtimes that can strike at any moment.

@ZOS_GinaBruno I just want to say thank you for the communication! Even without the ETA it makes me feel tons better just knowing that the situation is acknowledged and being looked at.

Sure thing! We're doing the best we can.

We Paying for this game. This shouldn't happen. Buy new server, change location, fire or hire Dev's. Do something OMG!...

Keeping this "cute" attitude not brings back the players. Everyday you losing players due to those big problems. People are streaming and do you know what they think about "your" game? With constant disconnects and lags i'm %300 sure this game will not last for 5 years. Will be closed due to extreme stupidness lol.

This game has a much better chance at lasting that others do. I was playing Ark for a while, and even though it's an early access game, they have disappointed fans so often and made some rather poor choices. I no longer play it...ESO all the way! Even with the bugs and issues

As with current problems, i still play but everyone has own degree of patience. A quitting threat from me really, REALLY not important at all but when several people thinks same there will be a problem. We are paying for this game so we obviously expect a good customer care. This game isn't free at all. You cannot download it and play for free. If it's like that, nobody will say anything bad because it's free lol.

However, with current payment system, alot of players subbed so they expect this game worth for expectations. We just want *** playing time, Bugs can be dealed with time but server problems exist from beta.

When you say something added to game, add it, don't like just Gina did by saying "moments".

They said Megaservers has no lags, yet you cant properly play *** Cyrodiil. Constant disconnects, server failures, BUGS omg bugs everywhere...

2 years passed but nothing has changed yet they try hard to adding more new stuff rather than fixing old stuff so we have MORE bugs and server problems lol.

If you've ever watched some F2P forums, they scour any negative comments/complaints out. I know from experience. The complaints are out there, they just got shushed. I'm glad ESO isn't a F2P.
I also know that sometimes things go wrong. I'm sure it takes time to hunt down the causes of bugs and other issues. There's a lot of code to sort through, and there could be more than one thing clashing. Could be a combo of hardware and software issues. We don't know, and I personally don't need to know. I do know they are working on it, and that is good enough.
In the time I've been playing, sure I've seen issues pop up, and sometimes return after being fixed. They also know it, and though they may not tell us just how they are trying to fix it, they are working on it.

At least dont do those weekly 6-12hr maintenances if things are going to be bad anyways, make them once a month or every 2 weeks max.

I sick of all the planned maintenances plus the unplaned ones. Too much downtime

GreenhaloX

Did some real work for a few, then went to my usual nail salon for window shopping, then got chased by a new employee branding a curling iron (I guess she's new, she didn't realize I'm a regular; oh well, I guess I will have to buy her double meat Subway sub for her lunch tomorrow), went grocery shopping, picked up my Chinese takeout, stalked my ex (just kidding!), now back.. still no logging in. Too lazy to work again, laying low for a while (I think that employee may had called the cops on me) and being forced to watch Kitchen Nightmare.

Schlagerdaddy

Steam -Server are down too.... SIRI is working now and take the WORLD ^^ XD

Rittings

Ahh damn it... gotta go on a 3 hour road trip in about an hour... won't return few a few days. Guess there goes my stables and XP potential...

I predict in a few minutes they will run into another issue that will take a few more minutes, absolutely no longer, and then they will run into another issue that will take just a few more minutes and so on and so one until about 5pm tonight. LOL
