8 more hours. rip.

AllenaNightWood · February 5

if these are getting extended then there needs to be better commuication for that and not 10 minutes after they are supposed to go back up

Larhanya_Theliel · February 5

This morning I'm like, hey, it's been a while since I played ESO. I should re-download it.

I hope the event still has time to get all the goodies, or gets extended by one day.

I pay more than a million a day for our trader, am I going to get a refund? Of course not, this length of time is unacceptable, I hope we are told the reason at least.

LarsS · February 5

They did say that they update the databases, I don’t think anyone want a mess up on that.

shadyjane62 · February 5

I hope I will be able to restrain myself the next someone asks if ESO is worth it?

8 hours is wild lol. Luckily I have and extra day off.

Ugh - of all the times to have extended maintenance, why did it have to be today?

Don't get me wrong, I understand this is a pretty heavy tech job and if one thing goes wrong it could spell disaster, so I appreciate taking the extra time - but my only wish is that this extended maintenance happened tomorrow rather than today. At least then, I'd be majorly distracted by some "important but non-disclosable" business I need to take care of at a "secure but undisclosed" location, and I'd miss out on one day of rewards as opposed to two.

But hey, at least I'm caught up on my other side work now.

i just can’t wrap my head around a 12h game maintenance that’s not even update 45. it was supposed to be until 12pm est but at 1pm was still not accessible. strange. they posted an update that it was being extended by 8hrs. sooo like pretty much an entire day. i’m hoping to see a new zone & a lot of new things if it takes this long for just a maintenance. the fact the original duration was 12am-12pm was a bit concerning anyway 🤣 that’s a long time. what in tarnation.

It was meant to be 12 hours, but 15 minutes before it was scheduled to finish the devs updated notes to say it will likely be another 8 hours (20 hours total).

They're updating the databases... If that messes up then your trader will have no items on it and neither will your character... If you even have a character left at all. That would be the reason lol

right but it’s not even update 45. even those types of updates don’t take 12h with an extended 8h. hopefully it’s a new big zone with a great storyline that makes up for the time

I believe it is saying that, in UTC time, it will be 1AM, and thus, technically feb 6th.

So no, it's not going to be 28 hours.

The_Meathead · February 5

Twenty hours is pretty obscene in scope.

Downtime happens for necessary reasons, problems arise, or things take longer than expected, but twenty hours? Makes me wonder if they're short-staffed. Hopefully all goes well.

That's for UTC, which is why it's in the parenthesis. It's February 5th, 8 pm EST which is equal to February 6th, 1 UTC.

"Hi all, providing an update here. After checking in with the team, it looks like maintenance will run longer than anticipated. Maintenance is being extended by 8hrs to account for the extra time needed to checks and getting through the rest of maintenance. We will update if things run early."

Not such good news, but if they gotta, they gotta.
