Well, if you keep buying their overpriced DLCs (btw eso+ doesnt give you future DLCs anymore, anyone noticed?) that's what you get.

People who defend ESO+ now simply say that it is for the crafting bag, don't you know? $15 a month for virtual space, no one cares about future DLCs man come ON you should know..get with the program.

DLC access, $15 bucks a month in crowns, the crafting bag, costume dying (instead of having to buy stamps), and double bank space when Morrowind drops. Yeah, no, that's definitely not worth 15 bucks a month. /s

Or, you know, all those error 200 disconnects are server side, and won't result in a client side patch.

The error 200 dcs are user related.

I play on a 7700hq/gtx1050 and have never disconnected, not once, period.

My girl plays on a gen 4 intel igpu and gets error 200 a few times a day.

Which is why she looses access to the login server, even from a basic HTML query. Riiiight.

Not sure what you mean by that. DLC access is still listed in the store. Beyond the ESO+ / Morrowind controversy, is there something else you're referring to?

The MotDs are being updated now, but the PC megaservers are back online now.

Also, the issue we ran into today during maintenance was completely independent on the amount of fixes in the patch.

Have you planning to add 1 day of sub to the every ESO+ member?

You are wrong. I have in hundreds of logins never received an error: 200, but yesterday and the day before hit an exception. "It has never happened to me" just means you are lucky. It had NOTHING to do with hardware and a LOT of people who had never seen it before saw it this weekend, and the largest concentrations, according to coverage and down time maps, was on the east coast. It has more to do with geographical location than hardware. Something somewhere was broken for a lot of people.

Very disappointed ZoS can't fix the bug that drains charge on the Maelstrom bow. Guess it's now well on it's way to becoming a "feature."

Magdalina · April 2017

I understand their server issues were not related to the patch notes, but I feel an overwhelming urge to post this anyway so please forgive me.

Now we know why they aren't fixing the groupfinder - just imagine the downtime for all the bugs with THAT, at this point we'd likely be looking at solid MONTHS of maintenance

mook-eb16_ESO · April 2017

Might of maintained the server bug is lagging worse than usual and there's not that many players on. usual broken stuff. grrr

No need to explain, people assume and don't realize that the back end is harder.

Our back ends aren't as hard as they used to be before zos had their way with us.

BTW you don't know what you are talking about. Morrowind is not a DLC therefor not included with ESO+. There is nothing nowhere saying there is no more DLCs. That is misinformation on your part.

What does your computer specs have to do with a sever issue? I've been playing since beta and never once have I ever gotten an error 200 until yesterday while trying to log in.

Not only that, but on the same day hundreds of other people just so happen to have the same problem at the exact same time ...but it's not server side... yeah right. Sorry but no offense you don't know what your talking about.

People so easily forget that not too long ago we used to have to pay $15 to even play a game. No flashy bells and whistles.

I pretty much sigh when I bump into people who constantly complain about issues that would be fixed if they had ESO+ There really isn't much excuse not to do it. It's only $15 a month for a lot of stuff. And before anyone says, "Well not everyone can afford $15 a month." In all honesty, if you cannot afford $15's a month, you probably have more important things to be doing than playing an MMO anyway.

People have come so accustom to being spoiled and having things served to them on a silver platter in MMOs. Sometimes I wonder where 'exactly' it all went wrong.

FYI there's a lot more to patching a game on the server than running a patcher like you do on your PC. There could be any number of non player facing issues that could crop up during maintenance. Take the time to crawl out of your basement and get some vitamin D.

Panomania · April 2017

Uncertain whats causing the 200 errors some of you are seeing. I've been playing since beta (on and off) with a gen 4 intel on one box, now upgraded to a 7700K, and on a Steamroller APU now upgraded to a Ryzen 1600X, and I've seen it once, when it turned out my ISP was having issues. Wife was running an AMD 8350, now upgraded to a Ryzen 1700X, no issues on either. My son sometimes plays with us, he's using a Skylake 6600, upgraded from a I5 3570, also with no issues. My son's on *** cable, as am I sometimes, but mostly we're on Google.

I have some guildmates who have had the issue.....2 on comcast and 4 on AT&T. Not seeing a common hardware thread with the people having the issues.

Your processor has nothing to do with internet connectivity.

SilverWF · April 2017

And now I've got error 200. 1st time ever.
Thanks for your so long and very needed today's maintenance! My very thanks to you, you are awesome!

The servers starting to have sustain issues as well.

Yeah, someone, throw Luminous Shards on the server while it (shards) still working.

mbn89 · April 2017

There was also an....and still kinda is an issue with dcing to the login screen....atleast for me.

If only maintenance could repair all these children who cant wait half a day for something.

Normaly you test things before you deploy the changes to your main server...

As a software dev, I can assure you that even testing on a staging server doesn't always catch everything, and it absolutely sucks when something breaks.

Obvious. The average Healing Per Day for Templars has been nerfed by the long maintenance.

Stamina builds were hurt the most. They lost hours and hours of stamina regen, and they have to work hard for every point they get.

Whatever it is, it does not seem to be wide spread.
