Maintancence times zos please Read...

cragontheone · April 2017

So basicly what i want to know... Why doesnt zos do the Europe server maintancence during the European low player time? We now have to wait untill 21:00(9pm) untill the servers are back on... If there is no extra time needed... Guys please concider to do maintancence for the European servers during OUR early morning or night time instead of during OUR daytime or evening Time like you do now... For the NA this doesnt really effect Them but we lose our playing time and our money on this (Its not much but we do have to pay for this day of eso plus its not like we get the day back on our account)

Please concider changing these Times for your European players

So you would want them to do maintenance on EDT Monday evening? Would people then not complain that NA is getting the patch before EU?

lesliedj · April 2017

Try living in Australia. These times screw up trying to play on Mondays at all.

I want to say that They should separate the maintancence Times, like make it that the players in NA have downtime when They are asleep or at work. And make a seperate time for the maintancence for EU for when They are asleep or at work

blizzard could do it so why doesnt zos do it

Turelus · April 2017

They used to do them on different days, I could imagine that was a PITA for them and ate into time they could have been using on everything else.

Also we abuse our pre-patch knowledge because of our good old American friends. #ForwardCamps4Days

Would also be nice if they gave some kind of ETA.

Because they live and work in Massachusetts USA and they arent going to get up at 1am to do maint. How many different ways can that be explained to you before you realize it? It's not that hard to understand. Are YOU going to get up at 1am to service American servers? No? Then deal. Dont like it, change games.

I know that They wont do that and i can understand They wont ever do that but They should think about there European players in my opinion its basicly "well you lose a day of playing time and money because well we dont care"

Rickter · April 2017

It's cute how you seem to think there's a human sitting there at a screen, typing away frantically to do the maintenance, and not an automated script that takes the servers down, reboots them, runs cleanup processes etc.

Today, with the unexpected problems? One of those scripts failed. THAT is when someone would get pulled out of bed.

They can't have the EU and NA servers on different maintenance times anymore - at least not for patch maintenance. When you had to have separate installs for the EU server vs the NA server it was fine, because client patches affected one or the other so there was no need to have the patch maintenances done at the same time. Now that you only need 1 install to play on both servers patch maintenances have to be done simultaneously.

Our server is in Germany. Not Massachusetts.

riberion · April 2017

We all have the same amount of downtime. It's not like EU has longer maintenance, it's just an inconvenient time. And really, my husband works nights, so he loses play time too. Depends on your schedule...they can't accommodate everyone.

I can understand that though that your huisband is working nightshifts is zomerhing he "choose" for (as in het needed work he got the job but has to work nights) but here in Europe we ALL have the downtime during the day and evening and thats Just wierd in my opinion

Rasthal · April 2017

Usanians didn't know where is it. They think the whole Globe contains one country (their) and the same time zone everywhere.

Just look at posts here and another example:

Ok, so you're on Europe time.. playing on the NA server. There's an EU server with EU night time maintenance. Just sayin'...

Phelaen · April 2017

i usually don't play during the day and only some evenings. yes i am dirty casual. typing this while " working " but it still amazes me how long the maintenance times are for ESO (without the extra delay we have today)

Maybe i am spoiled by other game makers but i feel like ESO maintenance time is a lot longer then other games.
and also all in 1 day instead of spread out like for example Eve online: which is scheduled to be 30 minutes a day, though they are usually done in like 12 minutes
