Maintenance for the week of December 23:
• NA megaservers for maintenance – December 23, 4:00AM EST (9:00 UTC) - 9:00AM EST (14:00 UTC)
• EU megaservers for maintenance – December 23, 9:00 UTC (4:00AM EST) - 14:00 UTC (9:00AM EST)

Why the long queue times all of a sudden?

    They gave out ESO for free on the Epic Games store for the past week so there's a whole load of new accounts flooding the servers now.

    Anyone would think they would wait until the game was stable to give access to people for free.

    What's the conversion for an Epic freebie to ESO+?

    Well, it's zero if the Epic player has to wait 15 minutes to play the game :D

    It become worse today. The only reason I can think of is the robot from Epic. Free base game + one week plus + event. I heard people in pc eu complain about this several days ago, so I guess those robots also come to na now.

    Just cancelled my eso+ and probably will stop playing when the subscription is over. I'm not going to waste 30min each time I want to play a game just to login.

    It's strange.
    We all pay a lot of money including the ESO+ ABO fees and are now allowed to stew in the queue because ZOS can't get enough of it! [snip]

    Got stuck on 1 sec again. Trying again now with a 20 min queue. If this doesn't get in, game is getting parked up until fixed. Waiting over an hour each time you want to play is a bit silly for an MMO of this age.

    I can't even get on on PC NA. 20 sec queue goes to one minute, down to 2 secs then errors out. At 7 minutes now. This is why I canceled my ESO+.

    ZOS still doesn't understand server management.

    Free trial + Epic promotion + in-game event = go play something else, cuz you ain't logging into this game, honey.

    One would think that if you pay for ESO Plus the Plus should include priority in the login lineup. I have been paying for my sub since 2014 ..And here I am stupidly waiting in the login. I also have the luck of getting probably the error and have to start the lineup all over again. Thank you, what do I pay for again?

    You put on an Event, give a company EPIC free access and then have a free trial weekend and you don't make a plan to let in the people that actually pay for your really old game to get in in a timely manner.

    Waited now twice for a long countdown only to get error 103 again.

    Fix it now.
