What do you for the long load screens after maintenance?

Tasear

It seems like it's gotten worst at least for me, waiting 30 mins or more for game to maybe or maybe not load after patch days, so I am asking does anyone have a solution?

On your first login? If it lasts more than about five minutes, alt-F4 out of the game, and retry. By that point the game has already logged you out for inactivity anyway.

Usually I alt tab out and browse imgur.

Yes unfortunately... on that note I don't seem timeout for quite awhile I am talking watched movie or something and was going through this process for two hours.

Yeah, on your first login, the client doesn't detect a timed out login... or something like that. So you can get stuck on the loading screen indefinitely.

I assume the game is doing something, finalizing the update or whatever. But the key is, if you don't get in, quit out, and try logging back in. I think this morning I let it run for about 30 minutes, before I realized something was off. But, about 5 minutes should be safe.

Thank you for confirming it's not just me on my potato of a laptop! Every time it happens, I'm going "Computer? Are you there, computer? You can still run ESO, yes?"

Yes. Yes, it can.

I log into the game, go fix a soda and the game is ready.

I shopped for a stronger processor.

Now I don't need to shop for a stronger processor. =P
