Where am I having issues.....

Pretty much everywhere, I'm UK based using the Eu server......

Loads of random loading screens when just walking around the world, usually these are quite rare no more than 1 or 2 per play session......

Whilst firing skills and running forward I go faster than the skills, funny but not usual behaviour......

Rubberbanding all over the place, again not a common problem for me.....

Having to restart the game due to endless loading screens when swapping character again not unheard of BUT not common for me.

Weird the only person in the world situation, stuck in combat, nothing working and best of all according to my Guild Roster OFFLINE!! This one I asked for ingame help with as I could not do anything, I waited around 45mins then ended up hard resetting my PC as help was not happening.

I am about to log-in.......

Wish me luck!

Huh, no. All MMOs do this. Server maintenance / restarts on a regular basis is completely normal.

This thinking leads to laziness.

This is 20145. We can build systems that will run with near 100% uptime. We can build software that does not have to be restarted every week in order to do garbage cleanup.

Aging systems, like Blizzard's WoW servers, need to be rebooted every week to do garbage cleanup. They probably still have legacy software in there that isn't even part of this century.

new mmos like wildstar, ffxiv, archeage has weekly maintenance too

This thinking leads to laziness.

how does this thinking lead to laziness ?

All thinking leads to laziness! Do not question this! If the Worker Drones start thinking, they will think grass is greener and life is easier elsewhere, doing something else! Then Productivity will drop because they will think they need compensation for working! Down with the Thinking!

the holidays are the reason for this. Religion is the reason for holidays. Stupid people are the reason for religion. I don't like stupid people.

tyne_wolferwb17_ESO · January 2015

So is anyone else having the game crash after logging in? I get sound and then it just cuts back to my homescreen and won't let me do anything. Any help would be great as I'm not too good with this stuff

I'm sure your boss would love it if you worked eight hours a day, 365 days a year.

The whole of the game because ZoS is not at the very least restarting the server. I could care less if you have an actual maintenance but at least restart the server. Seriously how is this a hard concept to understand.

Because none of them are Technical minded, they're all interns with like 1 trained Programmer. lol
Honestly look at the past ESOLive's all the guests say they started as a 'tester' and worked their way up (which we all know is one step up from working in Walmart).

I have encountered more bugs in the last few days than I have seen in months. Too many to even bother listing them all here, but to name a few: Quest NPCs not showing up in certain phases of dungeons. This has happened to me both in Blackheart and Vaults of Madness. VoM was worse because you complete the entire dungeon before you realize it was a waste of time and you can't turn in the quest. Blackheart bugs half way through.

Edit: Just tried VoM again. 2cnd boss bugged out. We reformed and tried it twice and the same thing happened. New players are grumbling about how buggy it is. I felt kinda foolish trying to explain that its been better lately, but my argument didn't hold much weight considering what we went through and what they saw with their own eyes. This isn't exactly what new players want to see. Especially with all the new attention the game is getting due to the CS and JS.

@Alphashado‌ , VoM is actually a known bug. They have not yet patched it, so unfortunately, you will not be able to get the skillpoint/achievement until they do.

You can still get pledge credit when it comes up though.

BigM · January 2015

Anyone else have their attack slots reset where nothing is showing?

Tailger · January 2015

Last night in NA megaserver, Rift zone ebonheart pact, the zone kept rolling everyone back in time. Here was my experience:

1. Get home from work, login to ESO
2. Start working on my in-game mail box (hirelings, guild notes, crafting requests, etc)
3. After a few minutes, randomly kicked to the character selection screen in ESO.
4. Load the same character, discover that all my progress on my mailbox had been rolled back AND I got a second copy of all my hireling mails with new stuff.
5. Grumble, but start working on my mailbox again, note others complaining about said rollbacks in the zone chat.
6. Return to step #3 two more times. Each time getting another set of hireling mails, so its not all bad.
7. After having been kicked four times, port to deshaan, all is good.

@ZOS_UlyssesW‌ could you report that to your server team? Thanks!

I took the past few weeks while ZoS was vacationing to search around the forums as well as talk with many of my viewers and have compiled the information necessary for these questions.

- The exact locations you were having issues at Everywhere
- Time it happened (all the time, intermittent) all the time
- Which Megaserver both of them
- If in Cyrodiil, which campaign all of them
- Your country All of them

Hope this helps!

All the good glitches happen to other people. I logged in twice yesterday and once this morning mostly to check hireling emails and get the last few points for VR12 on one character. And no dups on Hireling emails. Grrr.

Have had Rubber Banding and atrocious ping responses from time to time.

Now....if I were them, I'd leave the server off a while longer than needs be: feet up, cup of coffee, watching the QQ on the forums about how long it's taking "just to reboot a server."

OMG! Yes they totally should.

Woolenthreads · January 2015

I still suspect that the servers aren't necessarily the, or "all of the", issue. The Xmas holiday network and connection traffic plays a part too, and some of the connections are those foolspeople that want cloaks.
