    So..after about 40 mins waiting for email for access code, I quit the game, tried again, only this time, didn't ask for me code, and I was in the game. Only now I keep getting kicked out due to an "Unknown Error"

    The irony is, I'm trying to register the game in the first place. Y'know...sort of start giving them an account and money. Obviously they don't much need it.

    Exactly 1 hour since it was "Fixed", still can't login. 1 Email not working, now a locked account. Yay.
    Lost interest in the game and canceled subscription. Maybe I'll come back if I gain interest again.

    OMG! They just detonated a tactical nuclear device on US soil! Don't worry though, Jack Baur saw it, had a little tear in his eye, then got angry......terrorists are about to have a bad day! (Watching 24 season 6 and passing the time waiting for a login code by making occasional commentry on the story so far!)

    After getting into character screen, and an unknown error, it once again asked for an auth code, and I recieved one, but again it was invalid.

    Same here. Hopefully the server will catch up soon, was hoping to get in a couple hours of playtime while I still have a chance.

    Something is really wrong: I could finally log in without entering the damn code, I had just received after 45 min waiting. Then I played for 10 min, couldn't access bank, then zoned and was prompted back to log in screen, with guess what... A NEW REQUEST FOR F...... CODE, and of course the one I got earlier was not valid...
  • Bartichello
    it didn't ask me about it earlier when i visited my EU server character during the down time. it only does for the NA server. My pc has been authed to my account since januari



    edit: i just tried the EU server again and it works fine. only the NA server is giving me this prompt.

    Bethesda and Zenimax! The worst with this error is not that it occured, but your lack of involvement in the community that bought the game. Tell us why, what you are doing, and hopefully a time for a possible solution. Your silence tells us you are arrogant and dont care!

    My university's mail center FINALLY allowed me to pick up my imperial edition(They said FedEx decided NOT to show up on Friday), so hoping to finally be able to subscribe, I get this. Ugh. Just my luck.

    Not sure who needs to keep this in mind, the players or the maintenance team but... When you patch and require an email to be sent out to let players play again, and there are oh thousands of players all trying to log in and the email system gets hammered with 1000's of email requests.... things could be delayed... or worse the email server could crash.

    The European megaserver is now back online with patch 1.02, and the "login timed out" error has been fixed. Please be aware that you will be asked to validate your account using the one-time password authenticator.

    They are stating about the code here: http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/discussion/comment/569900

    Regardless, still doesn't work at all.
