Welcome to the world of ZoS where 4 hours of unexpected extra downtime is considered a bump....
At least these things dont happen reguraly,
oh wait.......
The day will come when their crappy programming backfires at Zos and causes problems overhelming them. We'd be looking at a few days maintenance in such scenario.
I personally believe they are already in this situation. Each time they patch they introduce issues that require firefighting and another patch that very week. Of course, all change has the potential to cause issues, but the extent and frequency of it here, and the length of each outage, seems really high for a game that ought to be pretty mature by now and I see it as a signal that it's all a bit overwhelming and seat of the pants.
Love the game itself, but the support elements are very poor IMO.
I have to agree here especially since DB patch the fix to issue ratio is slowly but surely getting way out of balance, this big 'snowball' of constant issues caused by previous 'fixes' for issues caused by the previous 'fix' is most evidently catching up to ZoS.
They need to STOP 'digging this hole', they need to stop pushing out new content new implementations, and concentrate on fixing or eventually it will bury them, they will never catch up.
Last patch with T1, i don't see any new content. Only gear and more broken mechanics. They basically gave uS 3 month of grind with new sets and nothing new to do. People have already cleared every possible content of the game and the new sets maybe made it 2-5% easier but that's about it.
THERE WAS NO NEW CONTENT IN T1

Bisher gibt es keine genaue ETA. Der Fix funktioniert intern, es dauert aber noch, ihn auf die Liveserver aufzuspielen und erneut zu prüfen. Es wird mindestens noch eine Stunde dauern. Sorry.

Not everyone goes by Eastern Time. Did you conveniently forget the folks in Europe are actually in a different time zone? I know you guys like to think there is no universe outside of USA and all, but please, have some bloody respect for your EUROPEAN customers!
Just so folks know, ETA will be 18:30 GMT.
I'm in BST, and to be fair it's not hard to google "1:30 edt in bst", which then yields what time it would be in my timezone. Same goes for GMT
I know, but it just smacked of yet more proof that ZOS do not give a rats behind about its European customers. So sick of everything being Americanised. You know, everything going the way of the dumbest country on Planet Earth.
1.) It's an American game, made in America... why wouldn't it be "Americanized"?
2.) If they include a timezone you should be able to figure out what it means. Unless you're a child - then ask your parents.
3.) Europeans have their own server. Japan doesn't have a server. NZ doesn't have a server. Who considers themselves the center of the Universe?
4.) For someone implying they are of superior intelligence you didn't seem to put much thought into that post.
I implied nothing. You inferred.
I do not claim to have superior intellignece. How on earth did you infer that?
Or, did I hit a nerve?
So you're stupid. K, got it.
Yeah... Right...
That last image would have been funny if Europe was actually a country, instead It ended up being extremely ironic lol

So, whats the current EU server status? Will i have to go to sleep, once more, disappointed?

This so-called "dumbest country on Planet Earth" is where the game was made and the company running it is based. ZOS is using the time zone they're in, not because they're trying to stick it to the EU players, but because of convenience. Remember that not all Americans actually have the same time zone either. Just google a time zone converter if it bothers you that much.
If you look past the salt and rage he does have a point.
Whenever a game that is based in america goes down for maintenance its usually during core euro playing hours and many players see that as the techs and developers and publishers just not giving a rats ass about them which too be fair considering this happens a lot is a fair assumption to make.
This though is a bit weird when they have two separate mega servers to bring down separately which they have done in the past.
Unless something Idk has happened.

It is even more ironic that America is not a country either... it is the word describing both north and south america, which would include Canada, US, Brazil.. etc.
Huge difference between Americans and America. One describing US citizens really, the other.. hm.. a continent with several countries?
Actually, many people regard America as refering to USA. When people are refering to the American continents, they tend to use 'North America' or 'South America'. I really do not get how you can be so pedantic on this particular point.

Have you only just noticed? I've had 10 stars since they were initially upgraded from 5 to 10 xD
I did the impossible. I managed to get grand overlord on the forums with ridiculous comments. Thank you Internet!
