Update 32 PTS Maintenance Extended

ZOS_GinaBruno

Hi everyone,

Wanted to let you know that PTS downtime will be extended through tomorrow morning as we continue to work through maintenance. We expect the PTS to be back online with Update 32 by 12pm EDT tomorrow, September 21. Thanks for your patience!

Honestly, thanks. I did not need PTS distraction today. Natch Potes were distracting enough.

Please tell the audio team I love them for finally giving us the option to turn off combat music!

I'm so excited to try things out on this PTS.

Did you try unplugging the server & plugging it back in? Should come right up.

Yeah, it's so weird, the experimental server we don't pay for and get as a bonus takes longer to patch/maintenance than the actual live servers of other games.

This is a public test server. ZOS are under no obligation to make this available to you at all. it is used to test features and bug fixes. They can remove it entirely if they want to.

I'm an IT Infra engineer. When we get "feedback" like this, it's laughed at and ignored. I hope ZOS team are doing the same with this quoted comment. It baffles me how people can be so spoiled and entitled.

Most likely what is going on, is that ZOS is using their portion of the influx of cash that Microsoft brings to the table to fix all those things that everyone has been wanting. And because it will take time, that just means we need to be a little patient.

We're just wrapping up maintenance now and the PTS will be opening momentarily!
