[IN PROGRESS] PlayStation®: EU megaserver for maintenance – November 19, 23:00 UTC (6:00PM EST) - November 20, 17:00 UTC (12:00PM EST) https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/668861

Midyear Mayhem started 20 minutes ago, and Vivec is already lagged to heck

The rules of Midyear Mayhem:
  1. No bar swapping
  2. If you're a templar forget about jabs
  3. Getting out of combat might happen sometime before the end of the event
  4. Synergies... what are those?
  5. Destro, Sleet, and Nova on a group of 80 opponents might do damage 2 minutes later
  6. Other abilities might go after you're dead
  7. Potions will be consumed but not give you the benefits of using them
  8. CC immunity.... isn't
  9. Crash / desync when you get close to a keep, get the "Can't connect to server" message for 10 minutes after crashing, log back in to PvE land and wait for an hour in the queue
  10. Load screens will take 9.5 minutes, only 30 seconds less than what it takes to time out and be force logged off and kicked to PvE land

@ZOS_GinaBruno Please let the right people know that we are extremely displeased.

    You would think with a big event like this they would not forget the event tickets. I envision some guy at Zenimax spending the last 2 hours looking for his glasses and they are on his head.

    The event where your potions have a 100% chance of not working, you are only allowed to use one bar, immunity/break free has been disabled and just when you really start to have fun it crashes ^^

    It's a shame. This would be so fun if they fixed the servers.

    What amazes me is some Pve people "despise" PvP and will never set foot in Cyrrodill.... until they can get goodies. Then the queue is out of bounds.

    I do hope some of them will stick though as we need more players outside the events.

    We all need to boycott PvP for 1 week min. Let’s see what happens when we stop fighting each other and start attacking the people that give us the most grief. Even if ZOS doesn’t care at first some gaming website will pick up the story and expose ZOS for what they are and did to a community of their game.

    It does them for the lulz. They must laugh hard at players, because in spite of horrible performance and all the whining about it, all they have to do is to put a big fat "REWARD" label on Cyro and players will play that crap anyway.
