Servers offline again!

wlindop68b16_ESO

Thanks very much Zenimax for taking your servers offline for practically the whole evening for the huge expanse known as europe! Just downloaded a huge update to the game (after it went offline last night!) and now cant play in the latter hours of this so called 'early access'. What a waste of a pre-order! In the post-launch game there had better be scheduled maintenance slots with adequate prior notification, not this hurried flashing on-screen message 15 minute warning with no clue given as to when the game will be back up!! Hope things improve for launch proper.

Settle down buddy. They took the servers offline for ''official launch'', now granted, I don't got a clue why they'd do this, but they are. So, eh.

European players got screwed with the early access. They only looked at there american clock and not ours.

I agree, what a waste of a money for "early access", since when maintenance and patching up is done in the evenings ? Instead of a late night time. Peak hours. People come back from work/school eat dinner switch a game to find out that servers are down second day in a row!

I'm hanging around the forums, feeling like a EOS wannabe because I'm still waiting for an answer to a simple tech question I sent on Sunday, to allow me to play on my laptop.

To discover the servers are down again? Somehow that fact is not a comfort. I'm far from a newbie at this type of game but I've never experienced anything as bad as this "supposed" launch. COME BUY ME! Get early access. Pfft! I wish...

Official release tomorrow makes me think I'm never going to be able to get online with this again. Will have to live with sweet memories from a few grabbed hours last Sunday ><

Exactly my feelings on this matter.

I'd imagine that once the EU Server is migrated to EU the maintenance times might possibly be adjusted to suit EU time zones more appropriately. Unless they do maintenance remotely which I doubt.

Yeah but this dosn't change the fact that EU Players waste lot of money for a non playable EA !
The EA was more offline then online for the most people here and i can't belive that there is no statement from ZM at this point to this.
In result, we've paid for a beta! And not a final release ready game.
So much stress tests in the past are gone but server is still lagging. The same quests are bugged like 4 weeks before. Fatal Game Crashes without any reason. And the phasing is bugged god i won't complain about it.
Sry but i had the best wishes for this game i realy hope they got the server mitigrated to the EU asap otherwise i guess in 31 days the servers gets noticable empty.
