    I want to complain about the bugs and server issues so that I can complain when they address said bugs and server issues!

    They aren't doing crap. Server Maintenance most likely isn't a patch. They just have little concern about what's convenient for us.

    Yeah, becuase I am sure there is nothing else they would rather be doing on a Saturday night at Midnight.

    Of course they are trying to resolve issues.

    I'm sure the 2-3 hours it will be down, and those people can't log in anyway, would make a difference to the thousands of others who were playing just fine? Why not just do it in a few hours, when its in the middle of the night?

    I'm not complaining that they are fixing their ***, we all know it needs to be addressed SOME TIME, but right at the busiest time of the weekend?

    I see, so its ok if it inconveniences someone who might play in two or three hours cause they get off work at midnight Pacific time or something, but don't let it inconvenience your play time..come on brother, go read a book, watch a movie, unplug and go for a walk. I agree, the timing is horrible since they have known about these issues all day. The mental midget in charge of scheduling is a bit silly, but beyond that, let em do it, its down already.

    We've brought down the NA megaserver in order to address some of the issues players were running into tonight.

    Will the affected players be receiving playtime compensation?

    That's great - what issues are being fixed?

    Aside from the few who are never happy, I think most people would be pretty understanding if they had more info on the benefits they'll reap from the maintenance.

    I assume there is some kind of emergency since this is taking place on a weekend. It would be nice to know what that is.

    Well, i really do prefer to play with lag then not being able to play at ALL. They could, you know, wait a couple more hours till there weren't so many people online playing to shut it down for maintenance...

    I am assuming here that this will take hours to complete (as every other time they shut down for maintenance). If this is only a 10 min. server reboot, than im okay with it.

    Ok, to all those complaining about Zenimax doing a bad job and all that other BS, how about YOU apply to work there and make a change? Or better yet, get out of your mothers basement, design your own game, and see how easy it is...

    I like ESO, but its staff really needs to get a grasp on reality, and public relations.

    Who the heck shuts down the servers on a Saturday night to do maintenance, during some of the most busiest time of the evening?

    Of course, no ETA. Do we go to bed and get up? Do we watch a movie on Netflix and come back? Come on man, get with it.

    What are you, 12? Server has issues. They bring down. Not brain surgery.

    As a matter of fact, I'm 36, thank you for asking. Does age have something to do with expecting common courtesy among companies? @ZOS_GinaBruno, give us an eta please! :D

    Why aren't you reading a book? Rather sit in these forums and troll people who are already upset? Nice. Really. Good job.

    Did you even, you know, read the link you sent? They just posted that to let us know it's coming down for maintenance. It's emergency maintenance - they are going to try to fix the problems.

    People - Stop acting like this is scheduled maintenance and that they are just out to get you...

    Go read a book or something, seriously.

    If you could not log in, or even lost a bunch of items and gold, and bag / bank space that you paid for, would you:

    A: want them to let the servers run while these issues continue to happen possibly causing other problems and making things worse

    B:Take them down asap so that others do not have these issues.

    I choose B so i do not lose anything or any more than I already have

    Quit being a baby, they needed to have this update. I personally couldn't log in due to the log problems. I had to repair the game and pretty much re-download it.
    So who shuts down a game on a Saturday night? Staff that wants their customers to be able to play the game.
    If they were the staff you wanted people would be sitting at home not playing for hours instead of a little maintenance time.

    Such a typical thing... Oceanic players have this issue on a Friday night at 10pm and get absolutly flamed for it. but when it affects American gametime on a Saturday... its absolutly ok... such backward thinking imo.

    YES to MAINTENANCE... sorry.. but I'm getting tired of massive LAG wait time just loading between zones. With all the bugged quests that require login/logout to resolve the bug its a double whammy...

    So STOP COMPLAINING... let them reboot the servers and get things working. A LOT of people can't even play with these problems.

    It's not an update.

    It's an emergency shutdown to avoid further complications from things like people logging in to find themselves with total access to another persons characters.

    I'm no software engineer but that seems like a pretty serious database problem to me.

    I do hate when they have no ETA, I would rather them say something like 5-10 hour maintenance rather than nothing at all...that way I know whether to go to bed or stay up...

    LOL... It's like WoW all over again. Honestly, when you go to get your oil changed, do you argue with them that they should be paying you because you can't use your car while it's being MAINTAINED??

    People... omg.. I need to leave this thread...

    Since they aren't saying why, one can only assume they've discovered something game breaking. Inability to log in isn't something that can be solved by hotfix, that's capacity.

    My bet is on someone discovered a way to item dupe because of lag.

    LOL Compensation for what? The servers being brought down. No, no you won't. And I hate being "that guy", but before you rage, go back and read the EULA and TOS for the product you purchased.
