"We aren't currently planning on any downtime for the EU megaserver."

Which means we on the EU server still have all the bugs in place.

Why this preferential treatment of NA players in the face of this critical, game-breaking bugfest?

Yes I KNOW the NA server had other problems but that's irrelevant.

    Well technically there is no EU server, because all server are still physically located in NA..

    Wrong, its location doesn't stop it being the EU server, ZOS says it is!

    EU is hosted on NA server atm.

    The NA players get more attention because the populace is larger and thus causing more issues for the server.

    More issues to address for NA. Simple as that.

    And you know that NA server population is larger because..? Im am just wondering, I have no such information, so it will be interesting find it out

    You're not missing out on much. Even with that emergency maintenance with whatever fixes they put in the NA megaserver still experienced long loading times and problems with chat/guilds the next day.

    Though it says something about the likelihood of how many of the population would play ESO, and if there are more people in a continent like EU, chances are that EU is more crowded than NA servers.. Not only the USA plays games you know ;) Gaming is populair in the EU as well. Furthermore stating that NA must be more crowded is simply an assumption because you don't know the exact numbers, as they are not public.

    I don't think it does. A lot of variables other than population would figure into this. The EU server might be more populous, or it might not be. The general population numbers don't tell us anything about what is more likely or not.

    Even sales figures don't give you a concrete idea. For example, my guild has a lot of people living in the EU, and they're all playing on the NA server.

    Population of Asia: 4.3 billion

    That's why everybody in-game is Asian.

    Duh. Cmon, man... higher population in Asia means more Asians playing.

    So ... tbh i have nothing against using NA server as a test server. Fix something, see what's that fix going to break, while I'm playing almost trouble free on the EU server :) I prefer a bit of lag but still to be in, instead of 6-7 hours of maintenance :) Once it works on the NA server we'll have it uploaded on the EU server and it's going to be working and tested :)

    No, that's pretty much a given not an assumption. It's been that way across every mmo to date. There's no reason to believe it would suddenly change.

    So how does it work? Do you have any facts or just assuming? I am interested to find out, what distribution is. Long time ago in WoW it was like 2.5m in NA, 2m in EU and 5.5m in Asia. For modern day in ESO - I have no idea.

    I didn't state that NA was more crowded. If you're going to make an argument, take care to read what the other person actually said. I don't know which server is more populated, and neither do you. And throwing around general population numbers doesn't illuminate the issue at all. It's meaningless.

    I'm a programmer so my logic isn't that flawed as I'm fairly good in my profession, I'm not a economics guys though (statistics), and I know a lot of variables come into play not only population. Though don't state that NA must be more crowded you don't know for sure, that was my point.

    Okay, quick example using the proposed logic in the comment I quoted.

    Population of Earth: 7.1 billion
    Population of Asia: 4.3 billion

    Conclusion using the proposed logic: More than half of the world population is Asian, therefore more than half of the players in ESO must be Asian.

    Do you understand how incredibly wrong that is?

    Honestly, it shouldn't require an explanation.

    'Durr hurr higher population means more players.'

    Seriously?

    I didn't say "higher population means more players". I asked do you have any facts about distribution of ESO gamers between continents.
    It seems you don't, you just like to atack people avoiding constructive dialog. Your argument about Asia doesn't make a lot of sence either - ESO was not even released in China (officially at least). But again, in WoW Asia population was bigger then NA+EU, so population of continets does come in to play to some extent, there are just other factors, that affect player distribution too.

    Chances are that it COULD, not MUST that's what I stated, but we also know that Asian's aren't really into western RPG's (cultural differences), but if they did I'm sure we would see more Asian in all the western games.

    In response to my comment about the NA servers having a higher populace, you responding my telling me the real world populations of EU vs NA.

    It doesn't take a rocket scientist to conclude what you were implying.

    Honestly, this thread is nothing more than a 'what about us?' whine. There's nothing constructive here. Flip it around, if EU had more maintenance than NA, the same people would be crying 'why do you take our servers down more often than NA?'

    Zeni can't win because people will always cry about stuff.

    Less downtime? You're SERIOUSLY complaining about less downtime?

    Have you read about the success of said fixes? It hasn't worked so well. Can I suggest you calm down a little and think logically. If the fixes break some more stuff do you want it on the EU server too? Let them test and get feedback from the US server and push a workibg patch to EU. This stuff takes time if it was easy we would all be in programming ans game design.
