iarnold✭✭This is freakin ludicrous!! We've been waiting for the servers to be online for 7 hours now!!!
Consider the players in Australia that lost 7 hours of prime gametime!! Freakin maintenance started at 5 pm, and there is still now end in sight!!!1 -

Thanks @ZOS_GinaBruno for the info.
And please dont stare at the sun!!!
What do you think would be worse? Staring at the sun, or attempting to read an Elder Scroll?

Trayeth✭Exactly!! 7 hours of maintenance, and we don't even get an update/idea of when it could possibly be over? I've been up for the past 4 hours waiting, and I'm sure there have been people waiting the whole time! I know it is necessary, but not having an estimated end time is ridiculous.Edited by Trayeth on 21 August 2017 14:290 -

It is scheduled maintenance. I'll grant you it's an awfully long one. In UK here.1 -
bethsheba✭✭✭Also be aware, they will be doing Store and Account maintenance tomorrow. So, actually two days in a row with downtime. Why couldn't it be all together? an unknown mystery.
Therefore, whining is acceptable imo

Sylosi✭✭✭✭✭When you have clearly no idea how to choose wording because other people do not seem up to your standard, you just look childish.
Nothing to do with being up to my standard, pretty simple if you don't have a clue about certain technical things, then either don't make uneducated claims about them in the first place or failing that, don't throw your toys out of your pram when someone points out you were in fact talking nonsense.
Edited by Sylosi on 21 August 2017 14:230 -
unfortunate as it is not being able to give an end time relates to the ever present issue of the possible problems the fixes you use cause elsewhere in game so until they slap it on a bench test they don't know if they have fixed and not created a problem elsewhere so giving a we will be finished in three days could become three months ;[0 -
iarnold✭✭And this isn't like it's their first major maintenance. They DO IT EVERY WEEK!!
One would think they should be getting better at it, or at least have failsafe in place if things don't go as planned.0 -

Its not random though is it!
There's been maintenance more or less every monday for the past three years since the game started...
Its been at roughly the same time...
And it lasts between 3-8hrs depending on what work is being done...
And it was also advertised on the forum all over the weekend that it would be happening, and when it would be starting.
Often with these things you never have an exact time thats it going to take, and if they give an exact ETA then most of the time that will be incorrect and people will complain even more "You said it wouuld be done by XX, why isn't it up yet" etc etc.
Grab a sweetroll & chill... theory craft a new build..... watch some twitch... make a sandwich... It'll be up soon

Store and account maintenance doesn't affect our ability to play. It will affect the store and account pages here, maybe new players who want to sign up, people who want to buy crowns, and perhaps the crown store too, but we'll be able to play.
Just stop whining.

I guess Zos could have put off handling the unexpected issue Thursday night to appease those that have an aversion to maintenance. Would be funny since they would then complain because they cannot log into the game.
While Zos does have more maintenance than their peers, it seems rather short sighted to complain about them doing something about some issues with the game.
The game was down for 8+ hours on Thursday (in addition to the 6+ hour maintenance on Tuesday, and regular maintenance on Monday).
Today is fine, since it's regular maintenance again. But it's been down A LOT the past week.Edited by MLGProPlayer on 21 August 2017 14:352 -

That is not the purpose of the PTS system, which is probably woefully small and wimpy. I doubt it would help.the work should be done ahead of maintenance not during this is stupid....
Exactly what do you think they can do before maintenance? Doing work during maintenance is pretty much why you do maintenance.XBox EU/NA:@ElsonsoJannus

True.
But the game has successfully recovered from the horrid lag problems in the aftermath of the Morrowwind release (at least the PC version has). They also fixed the launcher issues I was having where patches would not repair correctly. So the downtime does seem to be helping.Edited by Jeremy on 21 August 2017 14:440 -

This is not random maintenance. This is the scheduled weekly maintenance. For consoles, it is just on a different day.
The schedule for weekly maintenance starts at 04:00 (ZOSTime).
For the past two incidences, it has been moved to the earlier time of 03:00.
Maybe I am mistaken, but they I think that they did consoles today as well.
It may not be 'random', but it qualifies as 'extraordinary'.
