    HELL. NO! We had EU servers in the US when the game first launched and the connection was god awful. Nothing against the US, but I dont want to connect and play on datacenters in texas where the net infrastructure is still in the stone age.

    Why? Do the NA and EU servers somehow not have enough players on them already?

    This, add that this would give eu players huge lag making lots quit. This would hit pvp hardest.
    And yes the population increase would give the overloaded server performance all the time.

    Have an better idea, let Khajiit tail count as an staff. Only issue would be staff type. Not frost as it can freeze, either lighting or healing I think.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    No, Europeans/Asians/Euro commonwealths seem to have slower internet, let alone the language barrier issues since European countries speak so many different languages, it just wouldnt work out well IMO.

    Now I wish Sony said yes to cross play with playstation people on the same NA or EU server as I dont mind playing with them as long as we are on the same server, im sure they wouldnt mind either since PS NA server seems to be having issues with keeping a stable player base.

    Just look at all the "Night Capping" threads right now, can you imagine the whining if they went from 12 timezones per server to 24 timezones on just one server?

    Middle America would become a desolate wasteland overnight because of all the heart attacks caused by such a move ...

    On one hand half the world would get to experience Aussie type lag.

    On the other they might put the server in Europe and make it worse.

    How would this work from a technical perspective?

    If the servers are in EU, everyone on NA has 250+ ping. If they're in NA, everyone in EU has 250+ ping.

    Night capping would actually disappear with a global server as enough people would always be online to keep things competitive.

    Same here. I have two toons on EU, and I've noticed I crash sometimes when I'm on that server. I can play all day on the NA server (my main server) and not crash once, and I'm sure it has everything to do with where I live.

    Stupid idea, because all you are doing is adding more latency.

    To be sure, there exist at least one-two-three MMOs where cross-continental latency is in the, roughly speaking, 100-150 ms range. For example, World of Tanks managed to set up its servers that, from my personal experience, logging on to an NA server from the EU or, more extreme version, a server in Moscow from the US, got me an average latency of 110-120 ms on a good night. Err, morning. Or afternoon. The time difference can really make a mess of things going in either direction, at least if you're trying to time onpeak/offpeak times...

    That said, I have no idea whether 100-150 ms a) is feasible given the specific architecture of ESO; and b) makes ESO playable, especially from a PVP perspective. WoT is, but it is a very different PVP MMO (e.g. average time between attacks at high levels is in the 8-10 second range, with some very notable exceptions, of course).

    And so I must join the rest of the chorus in saying that no, the servers ought not be combined. For ESO, that is. Now, I have heard tell, back in the day, of some engineers somewhere trying to figure out a way to enable players from server A to play as "guests" on server B, thus enabling EU players to visit NA servers and vice versa with their established accounts/characters. But I have no idea if anyone has actually implemented this, and my guess is a "no", in fact, since it seems like far too much trouble to go through for uncertain benefits at best, corporate wise...
