We are currently investigating issues some players are having logging into the European PC/Mac megaserver. We will update as new information becomes available.

Will Zenimax add "ads" to ESO's loading screens ?

    No. Just no.

    My soul is dead and it's all your fault, OP :'(

    I doubt ZOS would try. If they did, the player base would drop like flies.

    I'd be happy if they put their company logos on the loading screens rather than having zenimax/bethesda/havok play every time I start up the game.

    Why would you even suggest something so ridiculous. It would be an insult to the playerbase if they added this, especially to people who pay for ESO plus.

    Even if the money were to go into game developement, as if that's the issue here, it is really sad to see video games evolving in this kind of mess.
    TBH I just find myself playing less of the big games from the companies that do this stuff, there are plenty of games companies making great games without being ruined by greedy publishers.
    I also rarely buy their games on launch any more because I don't see the value in their games, just wait six months for the next Steam sale and pick them up at a massively reduced price.

    I can't say I trust Bethesda with the Starfield release after what they pulled with FO76. I think I can live without playing it at launch and wait for their two week later sale. :trollface:

    I stopped trusting Bethesda so much that I did that with FO76... then never actually bought the thing.

    Wouldn't mind tbh. It'd give me something to do for 10 minutes during the load screen after using a transit shrine at primetime.
    That's what the forums are for.

    They could embed the forums into the loading screens. I'd be down for that.

    You just don't have a corporate soul.
    Let them make money maybe they'll find out how to fix the game.

    Isn't that an oxymoron?

    Maybe if it would be Free-To-Play.
    But in an full paid game, it's gonna kill the userbase faster than you can say "dlc" :)

    I hope they do add ads to the load screens, then I hope less things will be Crown gem exclusive.
