It's weekend and I think I haven't seen a response from ZOS yet.

WithMyLaserGun

Because you signed a contract that included information about maintenance and other downtime.

Because we do not live in a magical world where video games fix and maintain themselves.

You dont pay for game time, but for things in game... not the same. But I agree it can be frustrating.

I canceled it due performance issues, free last dlc and free eso + on last months. Will wait until next dungeon pack. I'm very disappointed with eso+ bonuses and current performance and content quality, aside of last dungeon pack

Modzcs

I pay because I like eso and I want to support it.

Nope, you pay for 30/90/180 days of online acces to full game with all content… And you will never get it…. 🤫🤫🤫

I canceled too some weeks ago and 2 days ago my eso+ did run out.
As long as I dont do any housing I dont have a reason to re-sub for now.

Again - you dont pay for the game. You have to buy the game. Eso+ gives you access to DLC. It does not give you game time. You still have to own the base game and latest chapter. As well if you pay for ESO+ you get crowns so unless you spent it on cosmetics you could have already bought all DLCs.

I pay it because it is a good quality of life. Some can say the quality of life that subscription gives to a player can be done freely in game by a few changes but that is another sea anyway.

For the availability of the services, they do not guarantee that their services are available at all times in their Terms of Service so even if they somehow can not provide their servers for a few days i have no right to complain and i will not complain here, because by buying this game i accepted Terms of Service that they wrote.

We need a Chinese version. Pay for play time only!

Most of the time, implies a majority of the time when its not. 720 hours in a month regular maintenance is 10-16 hours of that. Unscheduled issues, being generous has been no more than 24 hours. You probably spend more time eating than ESO has been down this month, and should definitely have been spending at least 150-180 hours sleeping.

You pay for ESO+ while you eat, sleep, work, and do all of those IRL things you need to do to keep the lights on.

belial5221_ESO

I play everyday on NA and EU servers,and don't see the game down for "days",even .It does go down for hours sometimes,but it varies,and depending on where you live it'll be at a time inconvenient to you.All games are this way,and because they are worldwide they affect players differently depending on their area.

You're also subbing for dlc access,craftbag,etc,and you get more crowns than you would if you paid 15$.So you're getting more than your money worth,even if you can't be on full 30 days.

Larcomar

I thought people paid for ESO+ because they really really wanted to get a DLC dungeon. Every time they queued for an RND... Oh, wait.....

Fun part is that a big part of their terms of service does not even comply to European law. Back when I was studying a friend of me went to law school and was amazed to hear about some terms during a random pub talk. It catched his interest and we went through them. Turns out not providing service without compensation is pretty much illegal here. Force majeure is not an excuse anymore for the frequency downtime happens and forcing you to withdraw from refund rights on crowns won't also hold in court. Problem is, who is ever going to court when it costs time for something minor like a game you enjoy? Most European citizens will never see one from inside anyway. And ZOS is not alone in this, we discovered a lot of big tech companies have their terms of service not comply with European law on purpose, because who is gonna care?

So yeh, there definitely is a difference between the European and American way of providing service, but unfortunately you cannot expect from ZOS to work the European way since they are and American company..

This!

Again nope. You pay for perks accessible during that time period. The perks are still there all the time.

The base game however has standard downtimes. Which you agreed to in the tos.

Your are agreeing to pay for an optional set of extras.

Your issue should be more with the state of the base game denying you this access

Linked in one sense but your op is targeting the wrong person as such

I mean they can build it in, just expect the price to increase as result. I mean i know that the value is different from region to region and country to country. but ESO + is $15 monthly USD (not including tax) that equates to roughly $0.021 USD per hour.

TBH, if i were over there and running ZOS i would change it to a time played model and raise prices.

The EU is going to be addressing law on big tech the coming year. We'll see what happens, but yes some practices need to be revised (in general).

Except for ESO , nothing is guaranteed to be up 24/7. Power goes out, internet goes out, solar flares happen, stuff breaks down, wear and tear and age and unexpected events ...

xPoisin

back to the original theme >

- we are paying ESO+ to get some "better" options to play the game, that means access to all content, some additions like craftbag, etc...

- the problem is, that you are not able to use the game offline, so if pay for 30 days of access, you should get 30 days of access to the game (we can exclude some time, for example 1-3% for service maintenance etc., you also do not have 100% uptime on your internet connection ). But right now we have 4x10 hours of maintenance each month plus we got 1-3 x 5-10 hours of service interuption, that is 30-90 hours per month, let say 2-4 days per month (30 days).

Totally you have 93% availability in best case (86% in worst case) , which would not be so bad if >
- maintenance is done in times with low use - mostly done in prime time
- maintenance and updates are done within proposed fixed timeframe - almost never

So there are still many options how to offer a better service to users without change to overall availability...


PS> sorry for my English, still working on it

CaffeinatedMayhem

If you want to cancel your plus, do. But every gaming community seems to forget that servers, databases, and the human beings that maintain them live in the real world, not a fantasy. Power outages happen, cooling systems blow up, hard drives just die without warning. No company can afford hot swap of everything at all times. If you're going to talk about cloud computing being "always online" you obviously haven't worked in a NOC.(Network Operation Center, the team that's scrambling right now to figure out what happened)

Yes, I'd love to be playing right now, but <CENSORED WORD> happens. That's just how any online system works. Sometimes it's your fault, sometimes it's not. I'll continue loving my craft bag, double everything, and access to DLCs tyvm.

This isn’t a game where you need a subscription just to log in. If it were that kind of game then yes, if there were excessive downtime you can complain about not being able to access what you paid for.

Instead you pay for a bonus service that enables you to get crowns, bonus XP/GOLD, and an unlimited craft bag. When the servers go down you lose access just like non subscribers. You dont need a membership for accessing zones.

So cancelling memberships do nothing.

But thats not what the op is arguing.

They want eso plus to be available constantly fir the full 30 day period.

Which technically it is.

Its eso that is down etc ...

They are two seperate things really.

If the game is live but your not able to access exo plus then thats a valid complaint.

Except nowhere is it outlined that ESO+ members are somehow magically entitled to better basic game service than non subscribers. OP doesn’t have a valid complaint, esp considering that as @wenchmore420b14_ESO points out the overall TOS includes provisions that have players accepting downtime of any kind.
