    Just DO WHAT I DID!! Go make yourself a sammich, have a coke and a smile and be patient. Obviously the servers are getting hammered due to the 40508509840984 people in game right now (which is a good thing) minus the lag.

    Im actually gonna go get super weird.

    I am having a similar issue. This is somewhat to be expected given that it is the weekend, and prime time at that. With that being said I personally wouldn't take the gamble by continuing to play. When things like this happen I take them to be omens, and steer a wide coarse around them. No I am not superstitious.

    I just appreciate when a server is behaving like this. Bad things can, and often do have a way of happening. Rollbacks being the most obvious, and the least problematic. There is also however the chance that you can cause a quest to be bugged for you, or gasp you can lose your in game items.

    Thanks for the reports, everyone. We're looking into this now.

    Any chance once that's sorted we can get some kind of update on Final Assault in Coldharbor being fixed? Came out to Cyrodil to pass the time while that was being worked on, and now I'm stuck on infinite loading screens.....

    The game is great, the lunch was smooth, but hey! There is a lot of work to do still, Zenimax.
    Smooth? Early access was marked by server shut downs.

    Still a lot smoother than any other MMO launch that I've seen.

    Our team is investigating the issues with Final Assault, and we hope to have a fix for it soon.

    With all due respect, they pushed this megaserver BS to the nth degree. Now they have it, and it's time to dump some dollars into it and make it playable. MMO's are fickle things. People love them until something like this happens, then suddenly, you see a big population drop. USUALLY during the first month and right after it's time to resub. I'm PISSED. I have no life. I'm sitting in my mom's basement waiting to do the only thing I have to do besides bath once a week, eat a few times a day, take a dump, etc.

    Thank you. Been multiple threads on that issue and no confirmation from the team that they were even looking in to it. :)

    Here is a problem I found when reading the report created by the ESO Game Consultant utility.

    Pinging launcher.bethesda.net [174.129.248.207] with 32 bytes of data:
    Request timed out.
    Request timed out.
    Request timed out.
    Request timed out.

    Ping statistics for 174.129.248.207:
    Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),
    Ping test failed!

    That is obviously a problem. To boot, the traceroute drops off after 11 hops and never actually makes it to 174.129.248.207. This is coming up as an Amazon server via nslookup: ec2-174-129-248-207.compute-1.amazonaws.com

    Is anyone else able to ping or successfully traceroute to that server IP?

    Happening all over the place, load times between zones is taking an extreme amount of time. normally just a few seconds, going on 5 minutes+ to change areas

    I've been trying to load into Stonefalls for 15 minutes now.

    Surprised I haven't been disconnected due to inactivity by now.

    Been over half an hour and my husband is stuck on loading his character in.

    I have been stuck loading into a cave for 10 minutes.

    Time to go do something else me thinks.
