    Is this the anniversary of ESO ? I mean... it seems like we are celebrating poor server performance here....

    It’s launch wasn’t exactly smooth so maybe it’s accurate

    Nothing is resolved by ZOS as they won't correct the actual issue. They are running on the same old servers from 2014 which are broken, damaged etc. I even have an account from 2014 that apparently if I understand correctly is still there. I have no access to it as the email address associated with it was terminated by google for prolonged inactivity reasons. The only thing I remember about that account is my toon's name. ZOS should not keep accounts like this in their servers. They are just one more thing to cause malfunction.

    @Dovahkiin02191973
    They have actually completed the last cold storage sharding for inactive accounts at the beginning of the week. Those accounts are not stored on the same servers as the accounts that are actually in use.

    Thanks for clearing that up for me. I was able to get into the EU server with no Queue just now but it looks like others are still having problems and the problems are compounding by the minute. Don't be surprised if we get another Maintenance.

    The stages of ESO performance grief. Leaving anger now to go to fear and then maybe acceptance that the game really is dieing. Not from lack of players, but more like physically collapsing

    Ok good news! My queue finished!... With an error saying I can't login and to check my internet connection. Lol.

    This is some kind of mockery, you didn't solve anything, you just went home hoping it would fix itself, and tomorrow we will have a repeat. This is the very reason why I will never buy a subscription longer than a month. Until the problem is truly resolved I have cancelled my subscription.

    I'm PC EU
    - trying to log to EU server, got a 49 minutes queue time, waiting, nothing happens for 10 minutes...
    - switched to NA server, got a 1 sec queue time, waiting, nothing happens for 10 minutes...

    is it only European issue?

    Hi all, PC EU is back open for players. Please let us know if there are continued issues and we’ll take a look.

    Still the same as before, can't get into the game.

    No it's not the same, it's far far worse.

    On NA just cancel the queue and try again, it will get you in.
    I had no issues with getting into NA after the event started.

    Please at least correct this info, for those who still have the issue not resolved.

    I just tried a repetitive login. First time was a Queue. Second and Third were two different Error messages. 4th must have been magic as I got right in.

    ZOS this has got to stop somewhere. Every week it is something. The players are tired of it. If it continues to be like this the game is going to go defunct. That is what happens to online games that are mismanaged by the producers. None of us want that to happen but the game is on that road now.
