    I hear that. Hot weather like this (30c at noon) literally makes me ill. We have no air conditioning so I play a LOT during summer heat to take my mind off my misery.

    So this morning I'm sulking and sweating. Normally downtime doesn't bother me much but I'm over-heated and cranky.

    Not to mention throwing up, every mussle hurts and feeling like you are 40 years older in just one night. Would be bearable with eso tho. But the lack of communication is horrendous at best. *sadface*

    Khajiit recalls the circumstances of previous EU only datacentre maintenance yes.

    When this happened before it was beyond their control and it was not just our world that was down for maintenance this one thinks but many.

    They were doing something where they must turn off everything - forgive the technical language yes.

    Perhaps we are experiencing similar circumstances today?

    I accidentally deleted my firestaff of necropotence and I opened a ticket.
    GM told me they will restore last backup for me, therefor they need to shutdown the EU-servers.

    Bonus maintence is to replace rep system combat balance with rep system combat imbalance.

    Air-Con that is under spec. would not surprise any of us
    that would only be another in a long list of things that the datacentre needs to improve

    A/C is not a "thing" here in Germany. Data centres would certainly have it but not sure how well insulated the building(s) would be. We're melting. 35c now. But I was mainly being sarcastic. :)

    I play in Cyro everyday and I didn't have issues with lag, also if this is server restart for the event then it should be for ALL platforms...

    You have to specify also the campaign, there are no lags/delay problems in shor , in the under 50 level campaign , and in the no cp one , but yeah vivec ( only in the evening ) has a lot of lags/delay problems.

    Air-Con in a server room/datacentre is a HUGE thing everywhere, which is why a recent datacentre was set up under water (M$)

    Great customer service for not telling est.downtime.Just tell us if it is going to be up today so I can spend the rest of the day frying my skin on the beach.Wrong move prioritizing for eso my day off,assuming maintenance would take only couple of hours.Even if it’s not their (ZOs)fault they surely should get that info from their service provider:-(

    I play on Sotha Sil, and when there are huge zergs in prime time, I don't lag at all.

    But when I go to Vivec at the same time, I have a lag even in Allianace gates lol.
    And if go closer to a keep that is under attack, game freezes and I get disconnected immediately.

    So I have performance issues only on campaign with CPs enabled.

    Estimated downtime mentioned with the maintenance announcement would be greatly appreciated. And updates about the downtime when it gets extended.

    Would also love a small feature saying exactly when the servers will go down, instead of foreign time zones. A countdown clock to when the maintenance starts, behind the announcement on top of the forums and behind the game's starting pop-up.
