    Now after trying to use the code i get several times, my account got locked for 10 minutes... this is ridiculous and outrageous.

    If i don't get in the game in 30 minutes, i am going to cancel my subscription.

    The way we are all lusting after the game ... Zenimax must have done something right.

    But honestly: If this continues through the free 30 days, I doubt Zenimax will see more of my money.

    From the mail i received :smile:
    "We noticed an attempt to log in to your account for The Elder Scrolls® Online from a new IP address. If you made this attempt, please enter the code below when prompted in game"

    This isnt true at all my ip is the same all the time... for years !

    Such incompetence is really incredible :)


    edit : i'm finally in, the code worked (after 25mn waiting for the mail)
    edit2 : not in stuck in loading character window actually, guess i'm not the only one :)

    that's what happens when you are patching EU server and put it up back on exactly when everybody in EU comes back from work and wants to relax playing the game...

    In all honesty, dont even add new things into the game before all your other technical issues are atleast somewhat stable. Please?

    I recieved one code in about 25 minutes time but it states that the code is invalid...i wish they would just remove the authentication altogether and let me play.
    Currently playing:
    Swims-In-Sap - CP200+ - Argonian Templar

    I like my healing like i like my characters: generic

    Same issue. Get referred to email, but no email with code is there. Then I get a code, try it, and it's the wrong code. I tried again and again, until my account got locked for 10 minutes... Wtf??

    No access code in my e-mail either...wtf is going, everyday it's something new. No explorer's pack (2 days back they said it's a known issue but still nothing), maintenance during european player's prime time and now this. Are you trying to make people stop playing TESO on purpose?

    Sorry for my rage but it's getting really frustrating.

    Took 20mins to get my code - relogged in and .... wait for it ........ it didn't ask me for the code and sent me straight to the character screen.
    You couldn't make this stuff up :p

    same here, waiting for more than 20 min and still no code sent ....very unprofessional by their side, patching up in EU prime time, and releasing changes without putting them on test first...
