EU players should get an ESO plus extention or some kind of compensation.

Maintenance for the week of March 17:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – March 17
• Xbox: NA and EU megaservers for maintenance – March 19, 6:00AM EDT (10:00 UTC) - 9:00AM EDT (13:00 UTC)
• PlayStation®: NA and EU megaservers for maintenance – March 19, 6:00AM EDT (10:00 UTC) - 9:00AM EDT (13:00 UTC)

We are ALWAYS the one server of the two that gets the delayed maintenance issues, always. It is getting ridiculous that NA gets more social maintenance times anyway and then gets their server up first almost every time a new DLC is deployed.

Eu ESO plus members should get an extension and non eso plus members should get some sort of compensation, its an entire day of downtime

    I agree, but dont get your hopes high... They never refunded ESO+ time, even when they pulled 2 maintenances in a row.

    Strangely enough that wasn't always true. In the earliest days there were a couple times when someone accidentally hit EU when they meant NA and messed the maintenance up. Weird how no one remembers this anymore.

    ZOS doesn't do compensation, for anything. The ToS specifically mention that they won't because you agreed that they don't need to.

    Pretty sure I remember they did compensate players at some point, quite recently. I forget what platform and for what reason though.

    Regardless, the TOS protects them in such cases, but that doesn't mean they aren't human and can't show compasion towards their loyal players. Just because they don't have to compensate, doesn't mean it wouldn't be a nice gesture :)

    when your server maint is peak time every single time, then maybe you have a slightly valid point. Monday night is totally out for me and many others when maint happens. ALL NIGHT. you know the time when people here arent at work and want to play

    and non eso plus members should get compensation for what? money back for a sub they dont pay?

    Fortunately for ZOS (and all other similar large conglomo-companies) you basically accept a ToS that means they can take your firstborn child, repossess your home and cut you into tiny little pieces with COMPLETE impunity. The best you're going to manage is to squeal a little as they slice you to pieces with their corporate might. See "South Park: Apple Terms and Conditions" episode for details ;)

    i am wondering tough why there seem to be issues on the EU server constantly...i guess there is a reason? or pure luck? Maybe because so many countries play on one server (don't know why that would be an issue but i have no clue about the technology)

    Do not bother yourself, as mentioned they will never compensate one server for anything.

    Last time they compensated anything was one of the holiday events, where a bug caused serious issues and they gave us 2 weeks extra (or something like that).

    and probably the cause of Zemimx's issues - NA only supports English - EU requires French and German & probably this is where the issue is

    or was it that the operator typed "9" when dismissing a dialogue box (on the German server)... :)

    This.

    Anyone with even the slightest experience of MMOs knows better than to expect to play on big patch days, and will plan accordingly.

    In this case we can play on the PTS, I imagine also the NA server, or there are other games too. There's even a life awaiting us all a step or two away from the computer.

    it would be less of an issue if it was a one time thing but this is a constant issue...it seems the mega server tec has a lot of advantages but there seem to be limitations as well...and since there is only 1 (resp. 2) servers, if its down its down...

    Some of us console players got 1500 crowns recently if we posted helpful information in the thread for the infinite loading screens. Not every player got them though.

    My guess is that people are more upset about prolonged offtime for the EU server only again while the US server is already up than they are about the update time in general. If I remember correctly this isn't the first time this happend. Take into account that the standard maintenance time is better for US servers as well and you got a multitude of little reasons that build a heap.

    Personally, I don't really care, even if it's my off day today, but I can see why others are upset when it all comes together.
