    I just want to know how they had a database issue that's causing such a long downtime. Do they test?

    Testing may look ok on the PTS because it's a low volume of players compared to how many are logging in on a popular mega server the day a new chapter launches. This can exacerbate problems that weren't as evident on the PTS.

    Plus one server can have problems that the others don't, which is evident here.

    The PTS had a bug that would not let you progress the main story on the first quest if you had done the prologue. I made a new char and had the whole story done by the time she was twenty. Not having my main char hampered my ability to test anything beyond a level 20 char.

    This thread is giving me nostalgia from wow patches long ago. They would get to hundreds of pages long, and mostly just heckling Blizzard for being incompetent lol.

    Unless they can't roll it back........... and the database got corrupted.

    Dear player base,

    Due to unforeseen circumstances© all achievements for all characters have been lost on the NA server. Further, any record of earned CP points have been accidentally deleted for all characters on the NA server.

    We're very sorry for the inconvenience.

    ZOS

    Ah, so this is the patch where they finally implemented Elder Amoebas Online where they reduce our characters to single-celled organisms with a complete lack of any discernible identity after account wide achievements. Good to know.

    We all get turned into Swamp Jellies!

    Oh speaking of that, that would be such a cool April Fools prank. :hushed:

    No no, Voriplasms. Green ones only. Far too many colors and ability to customize in a Swamp Jelly. Remember everyone, we need to keep that server side data to the bare minimum. Individuality is the enemy of non existent performance improvements!

    (As a side note- being turned into swamp jellies would be an awesome april fools prank! XD or a cheese wheel...)
    Legends never die
    They're written down in eternity
    But you'll never see the price it costs
    The scars collected all their lives
    When everything's lost, they pick up their hearts and avenge defeat
    Before it all starts, they suffer through harm just to touch a dream
    Oh, pick yourself up, 'cause
    Legends never die

    Seems interesting that the database for NA has problems but EU doesn't. Did they forget to update the database system on NA to the same version as on EU?

    I also image all those EU users are taking some joy in the fact that it is NA that is having problems instead of EU this time.

    Now here is an very subtle HINT.

    Perhaps inform that the EU servers are up and only the US servers has problems for some weird issue.

    Then the EU servers has their regular extended its always noted that the US servers are up.

    Thank you for ruining my day off.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    We better get the daily reward because I really need the mount training capacity books to get me closer to finally completing this on my newest character.

    I haven't missed enough days that I should loose those books but that's going to be very inconsiderate and rude of Zeni if people miss out on it becuase of "unforseen circumstances".

    haha with that crossing nose comment I just thought that it could be a line the augur would be saying. Imagine it with his voice, that is certainly something he could have said.

    Oi, I remember EverCrack patches. A full day looking at the totally unrealistic variety of faces and heights? Unbearable. And what was that bright think up in the ceiling? It hurt my eyes.
    If I'm the Vestige destined to save Tamriel, what are y'all doing here?
