How long will it take? This is very bad time for EU players... Why could not be this done in the night or early morning?

    It's to fix an exploit being abused like crazy. This is better for the game.

    Very, very bad move ZOS, doing maintenance during Friday Primetime.

    Especially fixing such important and gamebreaking thing I even never heard about...

    As mentioned in this thread, this is an unscheduled maintenance to address a current exploit. Our current plan is to wrap up PC maintenance within a couple hours, but we'll keep that thread up to date as each server is completed.

    They are fixing an exploit - it is an awful time to do it for us (Friday night for crying out loud!!) but it does need fixing and hopefully the servers will not be down for very long.

    Would you mind asking your coders to look at the horrible sound bugs that come with the 64bit client sometime too :3

    Preferably not on a Friday night (or over the bank holiday weekend for that matter) though - I can live with the sound issues until after the bank holiday :D

    Is this some sort of a f***** joke? you have all sorts of game breaking bugs in your game. ever played pvp?
    While you simply don't care about all other "game breaking bugs" you shutdown your servers on a friday evening for some mediocre pve bug? seriously?

    No, stop you saying nonsense. The exploit has been running almost a day or more an they chose the WORST hours to fix it.

    ***, another Friday Night downtime.

    Should we check the Forums Announcements section everyday / every couple of hours if we are planning raids?
    Can you put warnings for downtimes on the Launcher if they are going to be this frequent?
    Can we have longer warnings, maybe an hour before it goes down, so everybody can change their plans?

    "But it's a game-breaking bug, the server had to come down." ~ Nobody debating this had to happen. It's the regularity of these peak hour downtimes. People are beginning to expect them and it's becoming harder and harder for people like me to a) keep people playing the game b) plan anything in the game.

    Coming back with the response of "you should check the forums more" is a *** tactic for such a big company.
