The issue is resolved, and the North American and European PC/Mac megaservers are now available. Thank you for your patience!
We are currently investigating issues some players are having on the megaservers. We will update as new information becomes available.

I hope your anti-bot system has vastly improved before summerset because...

...if it hasn't, then god help anyone wanting to gather jewellery crafting items from nodes.

The bots will mass-attack those just like they do nirn's currently.

    There is no anti-bot code!

    so we can all look forward to more of the things and not learning Jewellery crafting this year
    oh sorry, it is designed from the ground up to take forever, 'bots or not!

    Yeah. It's a player-sourced organic pseudo-algorithm that finds bots and reports them.

    To be honest, I think there is. Or at least better bot elimination by admins etc.

    On PS4, It seems I don’t see as much as before.

    Well, each time I create a new toon (which within the past couple of weeks, 2 new ones) and go skyshards and lorebooks hunting throughout the map, there always seem to be bots galore in locations of the usual spots; such as Kh's Roost, Betnikh, Stros M'k, Stormhaven; Auridon, Reaper's and so on. This is PS4. Well, if the good ZOS have such a system in place and have been bots blasting, then those little minions have been coming back easily and in force. As of yesterday, seems like nothing has changed.

    Yeah I find the ps4 is picked up on reported bits with 48 hours ... It's good to see, but would be nicer to see a so called gamesmaster patrolling the game every now and again to see the problem for them selves

    I agree as well. Although I still come across bots on the PS4 the volume is down, and yes I do report them when I see them.

    If they got rid of the bots, how would they be able to sell their "10 million stories" competition? The competition that only a 3rd of the community was able to join.

    Mostly a PC issue, and even then its a pointless problem. Lacking a central auction house, bots are gimped pretty hard. I seethe occasional bot train but i ignore them. They are ungodly inefficient in ESO compared to most games.between those two limitations I find it a pointless fight

    Yes there is an anti bot system. Currently once a "bot" has received 1000 reports with pictures and videos from 1000 different account users (confirmed to not be bots themselves) that account gets flagged for review.

    Yep same for me. The bots are everywhere.

    In beta I found the nodes were numerous in the non Summerset areas. Not saying which ones cuz I know where they spawn.

    Lots of bots in a popular MMO in which a lot of players buy gold and items, who would've guessed.

    I've seen bots very recently is Shadowfen and Reaper's March and that with me cutting back on my playing time to about a 1/4th of what it was a month ago, due to health reasons. l still just need to hop on my farming toon and go do a couple of surveys to find some--I usually spot them within a second of arriving at the wayshrine. They are still there and still don't care, because they know ZOS won't do anything. That's on PC-NA.
    PC-NA since 2015. Tired and unimpressed.

    They are all over. Bots farming, players using bots to farm skill lines because they are too lazy to do it themselves, the list goes on. If there is a system in place it sucks
