    I would guess its not broken enough yet. There was a thread other day about all the problems lack of basic cleaning their game is causing, but sadly you can't seem to get all the people that complain :in game: to get their rears here and vocal

    If options weren't necessary, and everyone played the same way, no one would use addons. Fix the UI!

    Maybe they got tired of the Elder Scrolls Offline comments on Facebook.

    Getting tired of comments that mostly come from non subs is a great way to create more non subs.

    The laggier the game, the merrier the postings... well, no, actually that's what I'd like to know, too.

    Recently I saw, several times, my own casted spells OVERTAKING me from BEHIND while I kept running. No joking, I'm serious.
    Besides of falling through the gameworld (also several times just recently) and getting random loading screens at every corner, it's getting a bit much by now.

    The "funny" thing about it is, they just asked us in the another thread about the same topic what issues we have and on which server we're playing etc., so after so many people replied to this, I definitely expected a maintenance tomorrow.

    To repeat it again: I'm on NA server, I'm in Germany, and the issues are the ones I posted above and in the other thread. Then again, I don't think it makes any difference if I post it or not..

    ZoS doesn't seem to have a sense of urgency when it comes to patches and fixing broken things. I understand that there is a big update coming up and most of the world is coming off of New Years vacations but this has been an issue since launch.

    Maybe they are using the current situation to identify the problem and finally fix it, not much point in doing a reset if the reset hides the issue you are trying to fix permanently.

    Or at least that is what I hope is happening.

    Hello, there! We will not be performing maintenance on the North American and European megaservers tomorrow, January 5.

    Unless I am missing something, it has been 3 weeks since the last maintenance. If we get one next Monday, it will have been a month without a maintenance. Tons of quests are bugged. There are bugs everywhere you look in fact. There was a thread about it here and another thread about it on the customer service forum full of examples. Honestly it boggles the mind why zos would choose NOW to let the server fall into neglect and disrepair.

    We have gone from 2 maint a week to 1 maint a week to now perhaps one per month? Really? There are a ton of new players in the game right now. Is this really the product you want to show them?

    The only bright side to this is that generally when maint is skipped, it indicates that a giant patch is just around the corner and developers don't want to waste a maint when it will be included with the upcoming patch. However there is no major patch coming. 1.6 is going to be on the PTS. Unless I am missing something, this will have nothing to do with the Normal servers.

    I love this game and I have been trying to defend it vs haters, but honestly at times like this I can't help but ask WTF?

    Ok now you might be onto something. I mean what if they designed the megaserver to only hold 500k subs. But they only lost enough to get down to 775k and are now gaining subs. So they need to lose some so that the server will finally be where its supposed to be at.

    You guys are also missing 1 thing.

    We are currently at patch 1.5.7, meaning for the next 1 month they can afford max 2 more maintenances.

    Umm no. Because maintenance is not a fix which is what the numbers mean. Also they can extend the numbers if need be 1.5.78904 could be pushed.

    True but sadly this is not the way they are working. I admit I am also disappointed they could at least reset the server. Not for me, I'm not having any problems with the game, but for others that do.

    If I got a dollar for every time my game crashed/froze/eternalloadingscreened/otherwise bugged on me in the last few weeks I'd be filthy rich by now. It's getting WORSE every day yet, now if I don't crash for 20 mins it's a pleasant surprise.

    If people are too busy getting drunk on their holidays/working on 1.6, fine, but how hard is a plain server restart really? Even if it doesn't fix majority of our problems we will at least know that much. My game has never been less laggy than after last maint though, I miss that feeling:'(
