    Yesterday was regular patch maintenance. This is unexpected (for them) maintenance.
    And for us too. At least for me.

    Fark you, Bethesda/Zenimax. More like Crapthesda and Incompetentmax.

    Bethesda owns TES series but doesn't have much to do with this game besides maybe telling ZOS what they can and cannot put into the game.

    Bethesda and Zenimax Online Studios are owned by the same company.

    They have no clue how to fix the group finder issues. That's just the way it is.

    Update: This maintenance is looking like it is going to take longer than the normal reboot. We did encounter an issue during our investigation during the maintenance that is extending the downtime.

    We'll continue to provide updates as we have them.

    Aw dangit. Hopefully that issue is what was causing the login server to go down in the first place. But again, thanks for keeping us in the know.

    Also, in case anyone was wondering, I just destroyed Najarala. I feel a little bad considering it's kind of my main's namesake, but... hey, ya gotta do what ya gotta do!

    If that means root cause has been identified, it's better than just rebooting. Fingers crossed...

    It's always the same ol'story

    An unexpected high number of players come online at once, servers can't handle and start kicking players at random.

    Then who got kicked complain here that can't login anymore and everyone else is kicked for a reboot.

    Then they find "something unexpected" while during the reboot that requires a maintenance.

    interesting that the commercial side of the company's server never goes down,
    uuuummmmhh interesting thought, wonder which side's server's get the money spent on,
    just a thought, although losing all our personal data and financial info. would be a major death knell to any company, so can see the way of priorities.
    just stop adding thing's to the game before you've solved all the existing issue's then you'll have a happy customer base......
    not an annoyed one that like the game and will spend real money.
    but not if it carries on, tolerance is a virtue and stupidity isn't
    thank you for reading my word's now go do something useful lol
