    Same, every teleport seems garbage for me now. Just makes me not want to play.

    I am really just thinking about quitting. I am already that burned out on load screens for everything - this has been my main hobby at every beta I was invited and since March 30 2014; and I am just - I'm tired of it.

    If there was any other game that excepting these issues was this much fun; I'd be done here.

    That could be sadly true :)). My games has longer loading screens now and does not feel as smooth as it used to feel, I can not believe every time I try to come back to this game I do when a maintenance like this is happening and they break everything making me regret I came back and already payed my sub.

    I'm assuming you all cleared your cache and did a hard reset before logging back into the game post-patch, correct?

    BMW's main system (based in Munich) also took a large dump today and has been running at about 30% capacity all day.


    Imagine losing system access for 31 large scale manufacturing and assembly plants, an enormous distribution network, and several thousand Automobile and Motorcycle Dealerships worldwide.

    It's a crying shame that your loading screen is 2 minutes though...

    BMW management should drive their other cars, get hobbys, go outside, hug their spouses and children, or clean their houses.

    Maybe you know to do it, but it doesn't mean everyone does. There's a reason the IT trope "did you try turning off and back on again?" exists.

    No, I'm saying this is a complete nonsense thing to do.

    Oh good. That is exactly what we need. Longer loading screens when trying to do writs on 15 toons for the event... Sigh....

    And I actually bought a SSD for this... kill me now.

    I am getting the infamous "endless loading screens" at every teleport now.

    Not just everynow and then, but at EVERY teleport.

    That's because "endless loading screen", by definition, cannot happen every now and then. Once you get an "endless loading screen", that's it, game over.

    The extended loading time is most likely due to a huge amount of people logging in after the mainteneance. ZOS servers simply can't take the load.. they never could and they are getting worse and worse.

    Even now that I do have a full time job, I still pretty much am a No Lifer who has no friends to go out with, none to talk to online, no hobbies or extra things to do. I basically waste my time at my desk when I'm not at work. Yet I still find it a little funny and insightful how much people's tempers get stoked when they get inconvenienced from a single game.

    Two wrongs don't make one right.

    Plus, I've seen this issue in the past, all they had to do is to implement a multi-datacenter high availability architecture. Expensive all you want, but it's a world famous luxury cars brand here.

    Terrible loading screens, I agree. And they supposedly fixed something so you don’t crash to the desktop while signing a character out...instead, today it takes so long for that sign out to character screen to happen that I *believe* I have crashed.

    My character load time was only 39.4 seconds according to my stopwatch. Server: Xbox NA.

    I don’t think console traffic is routed like PC/Mac is. I could be wrong.

    So, after this extended maintenance with backend work on the servers, the loading screens are even longer than they've ever been. Me and my entire raiding team has literaly been sat here for five minutes, with only a few getting through. Can we have a single maintenance without something going wrong? Would be awesome.

    NO.

    I don't even take this stuff all that seriously, but, after the maintenance, I pop out to the load screen regularly (IN THE MIDDLE OF PLAY!), am totally creeped out by the plethora of pitch black figures, and regularly have trouble getting back to heavy attacks if I even attempt to use my ultimates.

    Sheesh Zeni! You're getting as bad as Beth. :)
