You're aware that this thread will probably be closed, due to it having a threat in it toward ZOS — correct? While I certainly understand your frustration at this situation, it doesn't mean you have to go and break forum rules. Just saying, bruh.
And by the way, I hope the EU servers get fixed in a timely fashion,
Of course it will be shut down lol! Censorship!!! and how is this a "threat"?“I’m The Best There Is At What I Do. But What I Do Isn't Very Nice…” - Wolverine/Logan/James Howlett0 -
SocialAssassin✭✭✭You came to the forums , looking for any compassion? Boy! your defiantly in the wrong place. You probably have contacted support. Come on your dealing with fanboys and loyalists. What did you expect to really happen?Edited by SocialAssassin on September 10, 2016 1:16AM“I’m The Best There Is At What I Do. But What I Do Isn't Very Nice…” - Wolverine/Logan/James Howlett0

Where are you, Antarctica?
My updates take an hour or two, tops, and I'm 6 time zones away from the server.
The exceptions are when the DLC's are released every three months or so - then I just start the update in the morning and let it go while I'm at work. It's always finished when I return.

Sorry but people like you are the worst. You do understand that when you purchase a subscription, you are not paying for literal game time?0 -

✭✭Here's the thing about the server downtime thing, though: it's unnecessary.
Take Warframe, for example. They do regular updates, patches, and hotfixes. You know what they do when they have to push a patch out? They send Red Text into the chat.
Then everyone quits their game and reopens the launcher to download the new update/patch/hotfix. People don't automatically get kicked off the server until a while later so they can finish what they were doing, grind for that last prime part, yadi yada. It's a good system. The only gameplay downtime is downloading the new content client-side. There is absolutely no downtime server-side.
Here? No. We get unnecessary server downtime that cuts into a lot of our actual playtime and takes away from the value of our ESO+ subscriptions. It's an archaic and annoying system that just makes the game so much worse.
Just get a second bloody server and push the update onto that, then push relogging players onto the updated server. Servers aren't that expensive, and for a large company such as Zenimax, a new server machine is a piece of cake.
We paid and are still paying for the game. Give us the game.Edited by HatchetHaro on October 5, 2016 1:26PM1
