    Yup, i have concerns .. i have been trying to conserve this months data allowance since i wont have much if any to spare, may go over, AND, i dont have enough space to dl all that many gigs, so will probably have to uninstall the game, unless its a progressive replacement type thing..

    It'll be an entire day I won't be able to do the Murkmire event, thanks to ZOS's poor planning.

    They've addressed concerns about drops being on when streamers might not have downloaded it yet, but have not addressed concerns about this download being during an event. They also have barely addressed concerns about the tickets being all rng, instead of guaranteed. Seems legit :neutral:

    Nope. I can't play until I get a stick from my friend with his install folder. And for the poster above - I can't get a better connection, the one I have IS the "better one", and the only other option here is dial up.

    it will crash and burn.

    almost every patch they put out causes major problems right after with the servers.

    a size this one, it will be the apocalypse.

    I can't do anything until I get home from work. I'll have Football Manager to keep me busy.

    Not worried in the slightest, I have a fast connection and plenty other games to play if the server breaks down for whatever reason.

    I've got this wonderful set of books. Little-known trilogy called "The Lord of the Rings".

    If I can't play I'll read those.

    Or play D&D over the net.

    Or continue with my TES fan-fiction.

    Not really a problem honestly.

    I know it’s a “classic” but honestly there are much better trilogies out there that I doubt I’d ever re read lotr again. (I have read it many times already)

    It’s like saying you’re going to go play in a Commodore 64 while you wait.

    Since your taste is rather vanilla I won’t hit you with crazy stuff but check out Raymond e feists rift war saga starting with magician:apprentice.

    I already kinda accepted that I will miss at least one day of the event (3 Event Tickets) and hopefully only one day and not more. With my internet speed it will take somewhere around 14 - 15 hours to download + 0.5 - 1 h to install. So by the time it will be finished it will be 4 - 5 am. Will keep my PC on for the night and pause Windows updates just in case.

    btw. Be sure to free some disk space. Download is somewhere around 60 - 70 gigs, but for the install process you will need 2x more space for unpacking and installing the files (For the short time you will have both downloaded files and installed files). So 120 - 140 gigs.

    Based on their track record of"improvements" this will probably go horribly and EU will get the worst of it.

    Why worry? Even if ESO will not work at all after the update, ZOS will fix it.

    I worry about forgetting (like last year) that 24 is my wife's birthday.

    As long as I remember that, I don't care if ZOS servers explode, I'd rather see servers explode than a wife.

    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    Why would I be worried? Pts worked flawlessly, no sarcasm.

    You people need to stop this excessive whiny. There's absolutely no value in your hyperbolic questioning when you present no argument as to why you're worried.

    I'm not worried but I am expecting to be unable to play for a day or two at least.

    It's not a big deal for me, I'll just do something else instead (whether that's playing another game or something else entirely, it depends on what I feel like at the time). I know it's frustrating when there's something you really want to be doing and you can't, but like I said it's not a big deal because at the end of the day it's just a computer game.

    Maybe it helps that I'm not currently paying for ESO+ so I'm not wasting any money paying for time I can't use.

    Yeah but there is a huge difference between PTS and the live game. Least of all to mention is the number of people that are going to be suddenly downloading a 35 GB patch and the what 100+GB base game at this point? The servers alone are going to struggle to just feed out the data, let alone support players.

    You didn't read anything about the update, did you?

    What evidence do you have that it will be bugs? My sources say rabid skeevers.

    I'm on console. We've had 30+ GB Downloads a couple of times so a 65GB one shouldn't be a huge problem. Good luck on Monday.
