    PC-NA (not through Steam). Was on the server for a good while, doing account clean-up (stowing items I wanted to keep, deconning useless ones, selling stuff worth selling, doing master writs, etc). Logged out to start dinner so it has time to marinate a couple hours and now cannot log back in, with the following error message.

    I honestly don't understand why it even have to be down time. I work in the online gaming (casino, sports betting etc). No one in the company allow us to have even 1 min downtime. Full redundancy on all servers over capacity so half of our hardware can go out (brake). We will still be able to have the sites up and running. But i guess it has with cash flow to do we make more money than Zenimax. We lose millions for every hour of downtime we have. And Zenimax honly have a couple of hundred angry customers and no money loss except the ingame shopping.

    Hi everyone, just wanted to let you know we're continuing to work hard on getting everything back up as quickly as possible. We're actively making a few adjustments so there may be periods where you're able to log in, but will let everyone know when we have a rough estimate of when the issues will be fully resolved.

    Will there be compensation for those who have not logged in today and not able to get the daily reward today please? That is only fair as fully ZOS fault

    So can someone please explain to me (and I'm serious here).

    Are the NA megaserver and EU megaserver sitting next to each other, or are they thousands of miles apart?
    Do the same maintenance guys look after both of them?

    Just wondering, 'coz I can't log in. PS4/EU

    My personal guess is that some of the backend stuff (mainly user accounts) are centralized. That would explain why they had to do account maintenance during this outage.

    NA servers are somewhere in Texas near Fort Worth and EU is in Frankfort, Germany I believe.

    Ok everyone, we've continued to make some adjustments and we're seeing a lot more of you able to login now. It may take a little time for everyone to get back in as so many are trying to log in at once, but the issue should be largely resolved. Thanks again for your patience today while we worked through this issue.

    Can log in to the PC EU server by not using Steam, but when I try to use steam log fails with a connection timeout. So it looks like a steam issue.
