    I know you all in the US get scant public holidays (and I sympathise), but you do all realise that today is a public holiday across most of Europe, right?

    Do people realize that you do maintenance to Prevent things from breaking?

    Do people realise that ZOS do maintenance to keep breaking things, that way they get to do some more maintenance later?

    I can't believe they are doing maintenance today tbh, IMO it just demonstrates lack of knowledge about the holidays that other countries have.

    A large part of the world is sitting here fuming about the bad timing of this.

    Imagine missing the point that after five years ZOS still doesn’t know how to maintain a server proactively and run an event without breaking a key aspect of it.

    Imagine ZOS not doing maintenance during undaunted week.

    Imagine activity finder.

    Well, I am sorry for you Americans that you don't have holiday today, but stop acting like this is a day only some special snowflake countries have as a public holiday. We are talking about the majority of Europe here, as well as all of Australia!
    Bad timing on ZOS' end.

    Who cares about emp tbh, 0.00000001%
    And it’s the long weekend, Oceania player prime playing time 7 and 9 pm.
    I’m sure Oceania player population is bigger than the emp that’s affected amongst the 0.0000000001%

    Well done ZOS wait until everyone starts their Easter break and then do some maintenance - wonder why you could not have done this earlier in the week?!

    Consoles suffer yet again - imagine taking the PC servers down on a Public Holiday?!

    It’s not maintenance, it’s to fix the emp not crowned bug.

    Sorry for addressing you all personally but come on, this is the second year in a row this event has turned into a maintenance fest. Is activity finder ready yet for undaunted week? Will it be running properly? Will you be able to run the event without needing to take the servers down again?

    The event so far has been pretty shoddy, and here the EU server, during an EU public holiday where lots and lots of guilds have events planned, are having to cancel planned raids and cyro events etc because of these shenanigans.

    Why isn’t the game running reliably enough to have normal maintenance schedules by now? It is not in beta phase, it is not brand new. It is five years old. Is there a plan in place to deal with the stupid buggy performance? Are you able to share your plan to address old bugs?

    I do not even want any free crown crates or event extensions anymore. Enough is enough. Sort this out please.

    And please, for the love of Talos, make sure on your next regular maintenance day that the game and servers are ready to deal with undaunted week.

    Back to school kids. Adults including ZOS staff have to work.
    "We are currently investigating connection issues some players are having on the European megaservers. We will update as new information becomes available."
    — They always claim they’re “investigating” the causes, but in reality they’re just waiting until the PC EU players go to bed. Once that happens, you can suddenly log in again and they happily mark the issue as Fixed.

    You make it sound like Australia is major in this comparison....
    2017 Australia population: 24.6 million, 2017 Europe population: 511.8 million.

    While many countries celebrate Good Friday as bank holiday and are using this as a day off there are countries that do not :) Like French for example that actually work that day ;-) Focusing on US does not makes sense as some states do acknowledge it as day free of work ;-)

    I might get banned a few days for this, but honestly
    if you consider this game and the people who run it to be this bad why you don't GTFO and go troll somewhere else please?

    Based on what facts?

    Do people realise that most maintenance work is reactive maintenance?
    This is to fix something that wasn't identified during testing, before it was released into production.

    And to load the Easter eggs so you can ride your Egg-catcher horsie.

    I wouldn’t PAY em to do maintenance. Steve Jobs would have FIRED some of them and cussed out ALL of them for HAVING to do all this maintenance...Then again we ARE paying and not playing...guess we are paying them to do maintenance since we can’t play...


    Just wondering if your apple software and products ever have updates? And which MMO did Steven Jobs make? Think a second before hitting the post button genius

    What Holiday, I'm at work right now. You mean that Good Friday one? What even is that one anyway.

    It's a pagan holiday, based on the position of the moon at the time Jesus Christ was anethetised by whatever was on a Roman spear. Easter Sunday is when Simon Magus (the magician) revived him.

    As far as christian Holy Days go, this is the big one. You should smack your boss around if you truly have any faith.

    Just stop paying them until either they fix the game or go down due to the of cash inflow, simple as that. You would't pay for a plane ticket if the airline would do maintenance all the time would you? Haha

    well they kinda had a choice: down time to make the game event available for good friday or not, I don't really pvp so I really don't mind the lack of availability, but I'm guessing there'd be a much bigger crapstorm if they didn't expand pvp servers for the event.

    I'm glad they did something sooner rather than later and I'm barely paying attention to these events

    European Playstation 4 megaserver, down for maintenance on a public holiday, 10:00 to 13:00 BST.
    Well OK, but why can't it be carried out at night? Europe, 4 time zones.

    Happy easter, everyone. :)
