I, personally am happy overall with ESO and I understand to a point (patience withholding) that updates can and do, sometimes wreak havoc. But as an ESO Plus subscriber I am beginning to feel like a Beta tester for ZOS and paying for the privilege, BUT unable to play the game for more than 10 - 30 mins before a sudden quit or crash, then error 206 or 209. I have tried all the fixes 3 times - 15 - 20 hrs downloading, repairing etc.

and some others.

@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom - Some questions - with the ESO updates causing so many problems for so many users, i.e error; 206, 209 etc., which unfortunately *keep recurring* with new patches/updates.

I was wondering why;

1. The ESO Mega servers aren't all updated and tested before an update is released and goes live. i.e; During the Mega server maintenance and patch/upgrade.

2. Is it even possible to update all the Mega servers before an update goes live?

With all these recent problems, after convincing three of my WoW gamer friends to download and try/play ESO, they can't get past the launcher error messages.

3. What do you reckon they do, fix or uninstall ESO?

I am now looking a complete fool to my WoW gamer friends :^( "ESO is broken and lame compared to WoW, I can't even play it! It's a total waste of time downloading and installing it!" as one of them put it. His language was a little more colorful.

NB: A person or company only gets so many opportunities to satisfy their customer/s, with what is happening, it is as if ESO is intentionally sabotaging its own product.

I sincerely hope the error problems get sorted out and a procedure/process is put into place to stop these errors happening with future patches/updates.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno & @ZOS_JessicaFolsom my problems have cleared up now with the third update patch, all the NA PC servers have obviously updated now, as I no longer get the 209 error msg. I am still curious about the delay times in server propagation and updates. Am I allowed to ask these questions?
