    Is this one of the things that @ZOS_RobGarrett said wasn't a game breaking issue? What a sh*tshow.

    Slowing Down Content Releases and the Great Fix Patch
    I spoke with Rob about the fast release of updates and if ZOS had considered doing a “Great Fix Patch” for one of their updates. He said it’s a question they get a lot and whilst it’s not off the table they as a company do need to produce for everyone and a majority of the bugs and issues faced are not ones everyone encounters or are drastically halting gameplay, as such they need to continue creating content for people who want new content to play and and don’t play at the higher level to notice if a skill or mechanic works a little wonky.

    Hopefully this gives them a nudge to start taking performance a little more seriously ;)

    Especially if there really is an influx in new players. It won't take long for those new players to see how awful the game performance can be which will cause them to leave the game.

    I understand that if the server isn't full, there isn't any queue.

    I really hope that this is only temporarily, i.e a few days.
    This game should be available at all times without queue.

    Hi all, we've removed the erroneous mention of a queue position in the original message - thanks for pointing that out. We know you have questions, and we will have a more detailed (and technical) explanation for you tomorrow. As mentioned in the original message, the queue is a temporary solution that we've turned on (we've had the queueing system tech for years) while we prepare the more permanent long-term solution.

    I do hope there will be only one PC EU server and you are not planning to open one more server to relief the pressure.
    The best possible solution as others may have already mentioned is to increase server resources, such as: maximum bandwidth, Memory, CPU etc.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno Will have Eso plus subscribers priority?

    I hope so, because if we have the same queue you can tell to your company my feedback. Enjoy your new customers without subscription, my sub is gone.

    Nothing personal with you Gina, you’re awesome.

    @ZOS_JessicaFolsom so can we expect the servers to be off about 12:00 UTC when the new hardware arrives???
    and when they are back the lag and queue to be gone?

    Is this an out-of-season April Fools joke? I mean, maybe they messed just up the date 10/04 instead of 01/04?!?

    You're welcome. We know this is frustrating. No, we are not planning to open a new server. Our long-term plans will allow the PC-EU server to better handle the larger population that the server now has. (More details on that tomorrow.)

    You need to upgrade both servers actually. Your game is growing, which is a good thing, but your servers are strained. Do something new before it becomes a massive issue and costs you players because this...

    Hopefully, it will be resolved soon.

    Well I mean people kept asking ZOS to upgrade their servers... I guess increasing the player base beyond what the server is comfortable with would be one way to make that happen. :sweat_smile:

    Awaiting the new information and hoping any upgrades needed don't take too long as log-in queues are never fun.

    The real question though is why didn't they anticipate the extra load?

    EU-PC has been unwell for months, it's been reported Ad nauseam until players were blue in the face.

    The server status was well known and the event was planned in advance and yet no contingencies were set up?

    I know common sense is rare nowadays but really?

    @ZOS_JessicaFolsom when you say tomorrow do you mean tomorrow EU time as this is about the EU server (ie before 16:00 UTC) or sort of Friday, as any later means it may as well be Friday, so nothing can even be started until late on Monday (EU time?
