Omg do them once a month, every time you do a maintenance you break the game and just to make a few fixes. Please for love of Akatosh stop the weekly maintenance.

Yes, let the server crash, make database inconsistent and throw the game to oblivion. We definitely need a fresh start

Yes...let's stop patching because some people don't get to play during specific times.
There are tons of games that don't ever go down, ya know. The ones that also don't require internet connectivity. Maybe go play one of those until the maintenance is over?7 -

✭✭✭✭✭Every time there's a week without maintenance the complainers moan about the servers performing badly and call for weekly maintenance. Every time they get weekly maintenance the complainers moan about the amount of downtime and the new ways ZOS have found of breaking the game.
Who'd be a developer? They can never do right for doing wrong.27 -

RavenRoxie✭✭✭✭Every MMO that I know of has a weekly maintenance. However, not every mmo that I know of screws up the entire game almost every weekly maintenance. lol

✭✭Servers won't crash if they don't do maintenaces ok maybe it will after a very long time without maintenance but that's actually what happens when they do, so if its going to crash anyways then at least it will be without the patching downtime and then they can patch when they actually need to, we get double patching time nowEdited by Bigevilpeter on October 24, 2016 3:16PM2 -
Ilmarthethief✭✭✭I wonder, this maintenances are to fix the game, or to prevent it to crash once and for all?0

The truth is that you don't actually know that. Just as the previous poster doesn't actually know about the databases becoming inconsistent.
We don't know what ZOS's backend architecture is, or what is going on during their maintenance periods. Claiming to just makes you look foolish.0 -

Please do so. WHEN you find an issue. At the moment you are venting for nothing. Maintainance is needed and explained why they do it now. People actually demanded it after the innoumerous rollbacks today.EU - PC - Ebonheart Pact

If the patch server is stable then you can upgrade the main server and switch.
If the patch server fails, fall back to the main server, fix and try again.

✭pls do it in the middle of night and not during day
This would be silly, because the middle of the night varies for people all over the world who play ESO, when there is a maintenance, it has to be done, the game has a ridiculous amount of down time, and yes as frustrating an annoying as it is it HAS to be done. So instead of complaining I have learned to grit your teeth and bare it....and send ridiculous gifs.

Not in europe, everyone on the EU server has the middle of the night at the same time. Other games do their maintenance at 3 or 4 am in the morning too.
Also why not complain? If I order a pizza and it comes 6 hours too late, you can be sure I would complain. This game is just a company providing a service as any other. I never understood how gamers would just take customer abuse like this all the time and then even go and defend it.3 -

Wow.. can you be more ignorant
Almost all major mmo's do server maintenance weekly.. and yes server can become unstable and shut done if you do not do the maintenance... even more stable mmos then ESO do it. Maybe you should educate yourself about why and the effects of not doing it before running you mouth off...3 -
