Khajiit is not planning to even try waking up until Turdas.

This one will be sleeping with one of the eyes slightly open though just in case.

This..

...followed by at least 4 weeks of "server burping", aka lag and stuttering, maybe we are able to welcome our old friend again, the "extra long loading screen".

Wolfhammer

Well fingers crossed it goes smoothly.. Oh god please go smoothly...

Epona222

When a big update is scheduled for Wednesday - let's put it like this, I wouldn't advise anyone to take Wednesday off work to play it. So just imagine that it will be up sometime late Wednesday/early Thursday depending on timezones, and rejoice if it is earlier.

There is no ETA from the developers, so expect the worst, and be pleasantly surprised if it is better than expected.

I_killed_Vivec

It might be stable by Saturday...

Big changes haven't gone smoothly, and this is the biggest so far.

Tandor

The best advice for any major update day like this is to plan to do something else tomorrow, aim to play on Thursday. Only noobs book a big update day off work and then spend it on the forum QQing about how the servers are still down, then up, then down, then rolled back etc . The veterans know to leave well alone, it's not a race and One Tamriel will still be here the next day !

kevlarto_ESO

6 to 12 hours optimistic guess.

Asardes

Don't forget to stow your chars away from areas which are normally very populated, and prone to timeout disconnects before the patch hits, because they may be irretrievable for some time due to the extra crowding in the specific areas. I'll certainly won't be leaving them in DC-shan

SlayerTheDragon

Well, they are changing the entire world, and everything in it...

This should be a record breaker if all goes well. If something goes wrong though....

I've no idea what area you're referring to, but what is the attraction of some areas going to be? What is it about those places that will suddenly make everyone rush to them from other alliances especially if they think the performance there is going to be badly hit. What are those areas going to offer that isn't already provided where people go normally? It's an aspect of One Tamriel I can't quite get my head around.

This is very good advice, I decided a while ago that I will be putting most of my characters in out of the way places before the servers go down, excellent reminder, thank you!

Basically, don't leave your characters in Rawlkha, Mournhold, Elden Root, or Wayrest. Probably also Orsinium or Abah's Landing. We have no idea whether instancing will work properly, but given that these areas are already busy (and sometimes cause loading issues for some people) and will have even heavier load, I have no wish to leave any of my characters in an area that may be the cause of "wah I can't log in" threads after the update.

Thanks, but it doesn't answer the question as to why everyone will go to those places when they know they're problematic. Also, unless there is a drastic increase in player numbers the fact that one place becomes more crowded will surely mean that another place will become less crowded? One Tamriel simply takes the same number of players and spreads them across the map so that for every DC player who goes to AD there's likely to be an AD player who goes to DC.

Asardes

Mournhold is a real nightmare at peak hours. The guild kiosks are a few meters from the shrine, and also the shed with the crafting benches and merchant NPCs is very close, so there are always a large number of players over a small area. On top of that most players are spamming spells while waiting to group for pledges - the undaunted enclave is just down the stairs. I never TP directly to that shrine and instead choose one of the countryside ones in Deshaan which are close to town. The cart from Belkarth also puts me in a less populated area near the lake. I never experienced such loading screens and timeout disconnects besides Cyrodiil with pop-locked campaign, while porting to a crowded keep. They should rename that to DC-shan

And guess what will most people do right after a patch that comes with new monster sets? Yep, run to the alliance capital to run the pledges on all their alts. And for even more convenience they will bring all to the alliance where their main is. By looking at where 2 out of the last 3 TES games took place, and the population imbalance in some PvP campaigns I have a hunch where that is

SantieClaws

Khajiit believes she may find a nice quiet place in the middle of the desert in which to sleep for tonight.

As long as everyone else they don't have the same idea yes ...

Luckily desert large enough to take a lot of us. Would have thought you be napping in Rosy Lion to make sure they do move out a few of the NPC's :> Think best to also make sure not in the Silver or Gold areas - never know what will happen when those areas fade away - maybe get tossed into Coldharbour again?

Palidon

Who cares when it will go live. All I see is more bugs and game issues when it does.

Glaiceana

Annoyingly, if its not ready on Wednesday at any point, I won't be able to play One Tamriel until Saturday Since I have to pack my computer up and send it off, since I'm moving away for a bit. Let's hope its a smooth transistion and we all get to play it on Wednesday!

Thank you Santie! Im really sad now I never wanted one Tamriel to happen and its coming sooner than I thought ;___; thankfully so does Skyrim!

cjthibs

So...I find this very odd.
We've had a tweet and a couple articles on other sites confirming the release date...but has anyone seen an official announcement from ZoS confirming this?

Maybe I missed it, but there is nothing posted on their news section as there was with previous big patches/DLC's.
