    How about an unable to log in issue that's been happening for over 2 days now?? Some of your paying customers would like to play what they pay for.

    Thank you and, not that I don't trust the devs but... well, yeah, I don't trust them. And so is anyone game enough to enter a building in Cyrodiil and test this out? I was lucky to get out after nearly a day stuck in the loop last time I tried so I'm not exactly eager to venture in to, say, the armoury or inn to test it out.

    I really want to knock off some of those Cyrodiil quests (or get knocked off trying to do them).

    Out of curiosity, why does it take so long for the EU to receive the patch?

    So you put out a fix for memory leak, and now I'm stuck logging in...no error, just an infinite load screen after I input my password with the audio going in and out. I'm going on 5 minutes during my third try.
    I love the game and appreciate the work that's gone into it, but why does every fix/patch break more than it actually fixes?

    Edit: And I didn't have any memory leaks, as far as I knew, before this patch...
    Edit: Okay, I may have jumped the gun. After trying multiple things, it finally worked. I ended up removing all my add-ons from the add-on folder, nothing, and then changed settings to low, logged in, and then switched back to high. Don't know if it's a coincidence or not, and I apologize for jumping to conclusions but with the way things have been going can you really blame me?

    Try what I did in my edit, remove all add-ons and set graphics to low, then after you're logged in and playing put everything back. It could be coincidence, or just time, but that worked for me.

    Tried all the add-on removal and set all settings to low.
    Still no dice.

    Union rules on working time directives. After uploading a file a 4-5 hour rest period must be observed before any additional work starts.
    Let me guess, someone stole your sweetroll...
    Everything I say is just my opinion. Like it or not - that's all it is.

    The picture on the wall is chaotic.
    I don't want to look at it, but when I do,
    I cannot speak because of the confusion in my head!

    I had the memory leak issue. I downloaded the patch and restarted the launcher. I have not attempted log-in but have instead been monitoring the launcher via task manager.
    I am pleased to say that the leak has been resolved as the launcher is now steady at 118-122MB RAM usage. Just confirming that the leak is fixed for me.

    We completed pushing the patch to the European megaserver much earlier than anticipated. If you are currently playing on the European megaserver please completely exit the client and patch to get the fixes. Thank you!

    BUT, now I can't log in. After I enter my password I just get an infinite loading screen and never even make it to the character select. :/ Any suggestions?
