    Well all the places around the game data center have power. Maybe they are just having issues there. No rolling blackouts today so that isn't it....

    PC EU - no error message, but an endless loading screen when trying to login, so I'm stuck in the pop up "Login is establishing..." I'm logging in using the ESO launcher (not Steam)

    Some players? I thought this was a power outage...

    It's just a boilerplate banner.

    I'm still in and able to do stuff (including changing characters and fast travel between areas).

    It can't be only this. I was also logged in when the problems occured, but was kicked out of the game immediately and then couldn't login again.

    The Houston power grid, apparently.

    Very peculiar... I guess I was elsewhere when it went 'boom'...

    There are a handful of us around too...

    Unable to connect to the PC NA server.

    Even the scrolling info panel at the bottom shows, "Could not retrieve announcements."
    I switched to the EU server and the announcements popped up, no problem.

    Update:

    While we continue to investigate, we want to let you know this outage is going to take a significant amount of time to recover from. At this time, we are estimating it could be at least 12 hours until we're up and running, however there's a chance it could take longer. The extent of this outage is unprecedented for ESO, and we will need to take time to ensure all realms come back online safely and efficiently. We’ll continue to provide updates in this thread as we have information to share and appreciate your patience.

    Because free ESO+ started today, can we have a day added of free ESO+, pretty please? My alt accounts would be very grateful!
    :D (This had to be asked.)

    Does anyone else find it odd that both data centers experienced a power outage at the same time? Almost seems targeted since they aren't even in the same country.

    That’s interesting. Gina says a power issue. But affecting at least 2 data centers.

    I don't think is both data centres.

    The login servers are unified, hence being able to log in on PC/NA, PC/EU and PTS with a single account.

    My educated guess is that the issue has occurred in the data centre where the NA megaservers and the login servers are hosted.

    Would explain why PC/EU is still running.

    I knew when I saw that the daily endeavor today was to complete one daily endeavor that there would be an endless loop leading to an eventual contradiction to the second law of thermodynamics. And here you have it.

    Thought it would have been fixed by now...really surprised its still down. Noticed though its not a 200 error now...we have upgraded to the 201 login error. Login error 200 was just not enough.

    This is the second time since the new launcher that ESO has spat the dummy.

    Apart from the usual mass disconnects for everyone in pvp, which is just regular business as usual.

    Going to try PC EU... (Am Steam/NA)

    *update*
    PC EU says down for maint.
    PC NA says no connection

    Just to give everyone an update, some power has been restored to a number of critical pieces in the datacenter, but there is still a lot of work to be done. We'll plan to provide another update in a couple hours.

    PC/NA I was playing when it went down got kicked and then unable to get back in since. So much for that blacksmithing survey I was most of the way through collecting I'm sure I'll log in and the last 2 nodes will be gone.

    Store(?) today, however, I have been knocked off line several times the past few days (307 a few times), so I suspect that there is more going on.

    The last update I saw was,

    "Just to give everyone an update, some power has been restored to a number of critical pieces in the datacenter, but there is still a lot of work to be done. We'll plan to provide another update in a couple hours."

    Which was roughly 2.5 hours ago. Do we have any further updates? Are we expecting that this will be up anytime soon? Anyone have a more recent update?
