The maintenance for the North American megaserver is taking a little longer than anticipated, and we expect the server to come back online no later than early this evening. We'll let you know when we have any updates. Thanks!

I don't know when early this evening is, but it was taking down early this morning.

Please like and subscribe, or just lol.

    I do not think you understand the server status post. "Early this evening" means possibly into the late afternoon or "early evening".

    I love the really, really vague phrasing: "No later than early evening..."

    So this means another 12 hours or so downtime?

    In retaliation for taking the *** out of Zenimax, they have decided to take down the EU server as well. Well done! :P

    we expect the server back up sometime in the vague ballpark of sooner or later.

    It is a tad bit humorous that a regular maintenance turned into an entire day of server down time. I realize they are having all sorts of issues but seriously an entire day for regular maintenance?

    I don't think I have ever seen this many fixes tuen into such epic fails by a company before. Usually there patch fixes relatively quickly as they have pre-tested them these guys just seem to be throwing wet paper towels at walls hoping they stick and when they don't they just grab another roll and more water and start throwing again.

    I do hope this dev team finally gets there crap together cause the game is a load of fun would be a shame for it to fail because of customer service and poor crisis management.

    Why do people think its the cool thing to do to post threads in the CS forum like: LOL @ ZOS.

    It's not cool, at all. Post it somewhere else, as this is CS, not a place to make fun of the company that fixes your very game.

    You weren't around for the 16 hour maintenance wail fests in vanilla wow then obviously. The forums were always /popcorn worthy.

    Too much downtime. You need to do better Zenimax.

    We may as well just expect each maintenance day to be ALL F___ing day long from here on in, at least that way we won't be surprised when they announce that they can't find the power switch to turn servers back on....

    How can one not laugh?

    Early this evening where? In America or In another continent? There's a catch here somewhere.

    I see we both agree that the forums do not have a good design or appropriate areas for some things.

    We need a place to make fun of the company that fixes the very game that the company built and created the issues in the first place.

    Have you ever been involved in the launch of a MMO? If you have then you'd know this is normal for the first month or two. I'm astounded that we haven't had more longer down times yes. Alao if you HAVE then most of your rant was a lie. If you haven't then is get used to it for the few months there are a lot of downtimes

    I know it's hard to understand but it's possible to like something and still make fun of it. I.e. We can like this game but still make fun of vague phrases like "early this evening."

    Rollback?

  • Artemesia78
    I am betting they have a sense of humor, i know i do. While there is definitely a line to be crossed, you also have to look at players like myself and many others who have had alot of issues, we should be allowed to make a pun without someone speculating with A totally different perspective.

  • silvestru_liviueb17_ESO
    I really hope that the PVP technicians team is not sleeping since after official launch, due to fact that Cyrodill is really screwed up...and i just hope from patch to patch...ment to ment...

    Not a chance. Wasn't even listed in the notes and I was completely shocked by that. If they can;t fix these terrible quests, at least have some *** GM support to advance these quests.
