Well that depends on when you're talking about I guess, I admit I didn't start playing until vanilla had already been out for several months but I can't remember it ever lasting for more than a few days. What I can definitely say though is that Blizzard always compensated for the downtime.DieAlteHexe wrote: »As to your last paragraph? ESO does not go down for multiple hours on a weekly basis.

I guess they don't always do the weekly maintenace but it feels pretty regular.
Aye, I do recall Blizz being very good about comp but it was pretty easily done given we were all subs so they could just extend our subs.
We don't have issues here every maint. We do, lately, seem prone to them after major updates. Too, this past month has been sprinkled with outages that had nothing to do with ZoS which just cranked frustration levels for everyone, them included, I'm sure.
I still swear by "don't play on patch day" unless you're a patient sort. It's born of pragmatism over the years. That said, I played on patch day. LOL but I'm not freaked out by maintenance maintenance either.
ETA: FWIW, I'm being patched which, historically, means won't be much longer. Yaaay!
I'm not really annoyed by downtime after a major update or expansion like this, I agree that it's to be expected and games like GW2 are the exception, but I think ZOS could just add a day or two on for ESO Plus subs like Blizzard did, I don't see why it would be difficult for them.
Let's say you wanted to rent a van from Monday to Friday. You make the booking and everything, go to pick it up Monday morning and they tell you that the van is being upgraded and it'll be better when you get it, but you can't use it until Tuesday. However, you still have to pay the the full rental cost for Monday to Friday and you only have the van for 4 days, despite paying for 5. How does that make sense?
Ooh patch

How then do they compensate the "freebie" folk? I think it's simpler to give over a pet or some scrolls or something like that.

ItsMeToo✭✭✭✭✭This is a game not a van.FYI - There is no such thing as 'night capping' in a world wide MMO.FYI - There was no paid Beta. When they launched the game the Beta was over, even if you don't think it was.FYI - It's B2P not F2P. There is a difference.FYI - It doesn't take any player skill to mash keys or buttons in this game. The ones that stay alive longer have the better internet connection and speed.FYI - The game is not broken, it still works. It just has 'bugs' that need to be fixed.Balance is a "Bad" thing.
Example: There were hundreds of Jedi and only two Sith in Star Wars. The Jedi wanted, "Balance in the Force" and they got it. Now there are only two Jedi and two Sith.
Balance is a "Bad" thing.Is the glass half full or half empty?
I say, "Get a smaller glass."1 -
NeroBad✭✭✭✭If they can extend not by just days but by mins Im all in for it. Add the mins when a server is down and after the server is up then add this amount to the active ESO+ accounts (What to do for those whos ESO+ expires during this time is the joker question
).
Adding a whole day for each 2-3 hours maintanance would be nice but I can see why they don't do that (most of the times I'm at work (for exapmle right now)). Altough if a maintanance is longer then 10 hours in weekends or prime time weekdays I think it should be one day plus (not just the above mentioned minutes).0 -
