    Good luck selling Morrow Wind copies now, glad i didn't pre order already and get *** I just dropped $220 on the busted ass crown store and ESO+ 2 days ago and now i cant play. I bet so many people quit after this one including myself. RIP ESO.

    So all these bugs and issues we thought were going to kill ESO, apparently what really killed it was one weekend of outage.

    Posted this elsewhere, but it's applicable here - regarding the talk/thought of DDoS attack.
    I'm not sure the DDoS was specifically aimed at ESO - SW:TOR US server's got smacked down at the same time over the weekend. So that's 2 different games from 2 different companies that had connection problems due to a DDoS attack.

    Now it could have been 2 separate attacks, one aimed at ESO and one aimed at SWTOR. Or it could have been 1 attack aimed at either game that also effected the other game, or an attack aimed at something else entirely... and just happened to effect both games as well.

    How could it effect both games? Simple - if it flooded a server you route through to get to that game, then you'll have connection problems... even if the game(s) themselves are not actually effected/targeted by the attack.

    And this is a likely culprit here... since for both games the connection problems didn't effect everyone, only some. And thing is... not everyone will have the same routing to a server, so those whose routing avoided the congested/attacked server's wouldn't see/experience any problems.

    Unfortunately... as long as new "chapter" is called "Morrowind" i will be like:

    I just can't help it... too much good memories. TES III was the best game in the series so far...
    So even if it will be a total failure and will be a steaming pile of sh**... I will still buy it.. as long as it is called Morrowind... :*

    Reminder:

    ESO is not going to die due to a few days of server trouble

    ESO is not going to die if you leave

    Zos could afford a Super Bowl commercial, they're not going bankrupt any time soon

    I don't want to bust your bubble, but. You may want to take look at a company called Solyndra (I know not a gaming company) they talked big even had a President brag how big they were, then in a span of a month, doors locked with (ex)employees standing in the parking lot asking "what the heck".

    You only have to look at General Motors Corporation . Went 'belly up' and became Motors Liquidation Company.
    The old GM viable assets were rolled into General Motors Company. Big one day, broke the next.

    This happens then an company have lots of debt, either sales go down or worse by borrow on expected huge future sales, so even if sales are pretty big you go bankrupt.

    Some game companies has broken their back making an huge game and can not afford it not being an hit.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    lol ... ofc lowskillz won't quit - he just spent 220$ in the crown store and bought EOS+. He just wanted everybody to know that he's 12 years old and raging because all his birthday money is gone and he ate all the cake and ... and ... *sobbs* ... and STILL someone killed him in PVP before the disconnect and STILL he's totally unable to finish vMA and ... and ... *more sobbs* ... why did he spend so much money if it doesn't give him any skills?!

    :anguished:

    He just chose different words to express himself because he's only 12 and not good at writing. :wink:

    I was going to debate things but it's probably best to just let them pass. A lot of these angry "I paid a ton of money on a video game but now I'm mad" posts are knee jerk displays of immaturity that I need to just remember that my son plays this game, and what he is like as a teen and what I was like even into my 20s and you just have to let people grow up.

    True. Also many seem to not read what Zos said has happened or do not understand what a DDOS attack is or who is ultimately responsible
