Thank you Gina, I'd been hoping for that! It would have been a shame to miss out on those last event tickets.

Is there somewhere that tells us how long maintenance is likely to go on? I keep having to rearrange events with friends when it goes on longer than normal, which gets a little frustrating. I know it's variable and the theoretical end time isn't set in stone, but to know in advance if it's going to be a long session would be really helpful.

Thanks

Thank you Fizl - you're right but I hadn't realised it was there outside of the maintenance times. Every day's a schoolday...

Yes, but why such a long maintenance?

@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_Kevin We know it's not a patch, but would it hurt to at least give us some clue as to why today's maintenance is expected to take ~10 hours? Some of us have this unique problem where, if we start playing another game, we tend to get invested in the new game and lose all interest in the old one. And I would VERY much like to finish as much of TESO's content as I'm capable of playing (which basically limits me to overland; Autism and the social anxieties that come with it can be SUCH a problem at times...) before moving on to another game.

Thank you very much for your consideration.

What is the maintenance for? I cannot see any updates

Thank you Gina for keeping us posted!

ZOS_Kevin

For those asking about today's maintenance, we posted an update for you here.

Tagging the following since they specifically asked. @BigMakatak @Overamera

Cheers - I love this

@ZOS_Kevin Thank you very much for this! That certainly explains the lengthy down-time. Still, would have been a lot nicer to have known this from the beginning. Well, lesson learned, I guess? Take care, and have a great day!

Most Enjoying!

Thx @ ZOS _ ALL

@ZOS_Kevin - thanks for that info, you da man!

Great! I only need 3 more Deadlands treasure maps and I can wallpaper my entire house!...

Trier_Sero

4 more hours of maintenance, yay!

Groterdan

Not much point adding a extra day when server go up at midnight and peeps have jobs the next day.
Looks like they need to extend the extended event ....

Haha yeh, exactly this. Extending the event actually doesn't do anything when you can't login and the last fake day is during working hours.

Too bad, actually wanted to buy cheaper leyawiin/deadlands/fargrave furnishing plans to expand my collection. Unfortunately the server is down now and tomorrow I'm busy, which means the cheaper plans will probably be gone already..

Hi everyone!

We wanted to give you a heads up that due to the scheduled maintenance occurring on all megaservers this Tuesday, November 28, we are extending the Gates of Oblivion Celebration by one day. This will change the end date from November 28 at 10:00am EST to November 29 at 10:00am EST.

Enjoy!

Will there be any compensation for the lack of opportunity to get the login rewards for today? As it stands this khajiit won't be awake for the servers to be back up, and she hates missing out

AllegedParadigm

Now everyone can get their last day of tickets and rewards. I'm sure many really appreciate this.

necco889

@ZOS_GinaBruno I think the most disappointing part is not the fact that the servers are still not up, we can understand that.
It's much worse we are getting this info right after the original deadline. Many of us have scheduled raid, sitting here waiting, hoping the server will come up any minute, and we get 4 hour delay. This much time could have been seen hours ago. Still we get the update after last seconds. The same happened not so long ago with a big maintenance like this. Honestly its just rude, and one more day event won't solve this.

ospray315

Anyone know if the daily log in rewards etc will be extended? As I doubt many, if any of my guild has been able to log in today

SoapOnaRope

Extensions aren't worth a crap if the servers are down, maybe even until the event extension ends, who knows. You all need some new employees, I have never seen an MMO, or ANY other game for that matter, take as much down time as often as this one, and I literally PAY to play this one, the free ones seem to have the most talented devs, maybe you should call some of them for help, i'm sure those devs would have had this taken care of in 6 hours or less, maybe 4.

yarskiss

Yeah well,,,, still have to pay for the day not being able to play...

USarmydrew09

Going to be down for most of the day. And they still probably won't fix some of the issues i've been going on for years.

Immortal_Dark410

Great news

Trundik

Any chance that this maintenance will stop game freezes? With last update it become more frequently, specially when you are in queue

johnebrown

I know these things can happen - I was a programmer for many decades (long retired), and I'm glad you're upgrading to make things better

But it is very inconvenient & irritating to be told at 1:30 to come back at 2:00 only to then be told to come back 4 hours later.
I do understand, but I certainly don't like having to keep rearranging my plans.

wardropper

Please, just fix the combat bug in Cyrodiil... along with that "Poisoned, Haemorrhaging and Burning" debuff of 49,000+ days, which some bright spark has found a way of inflicting upon players when his faction is about to lose a keep...

I could tolerate a week of "maintenance", if you would just do that.
