    I just want to say, from an adults perspective, that yes its frustrating but as many have said, this is the nature of playing an MMO. Especially in its early life. The children will cry as they don't know how to express their feelings any other way. And the lonely noobs will scream as they now have to face the real world which they are so desperate to hide from and NEED to get back in the game ASAP.

    Its the circle of life.

    "We need to take the server down for maintenance again"

    'But sir, we've already done that several times this week, plus we haven't given them notice. They will rip us apart!'

    "We will make it.. look like an accident :p "

    I do not know if it's a good place for this question.
    How long will last the test of this game? It looks good and can buy it after the release.

    So if they think free time is in order they will give it. Whining about it doesn't help.

    sorry geen kinderen hier (sorry no kids here), but nice try.

    Believe me they're here :open_mouth:

    The people asking for refund or free gametime are so hilarious xD

    Do you people ask for a refund at the gasstation when you get in a traffic jam?

    That's a pretty stupid example. The traffic jam is generally not caused by gas station owner or their faulty services/infrastructure.

    However, the problem here is not about gasstation, because gasstation does control traffic or road ability. Here the problem is ZOS control their servers and they suppose to provide the service that we paid. Two different things, DUDE!!

    It's Saturday, myself like most people have today off to relax and do what they like.


    Euh... then relax man.... seriously... take a deep breath and relax, getting worked up isn't gonna get you in game any faster :)

    I would love to relax and play a game, Zenimax have decided to put their heads back up their asses again and taken the server down during peak hours cause they can't maintain it properly.

    Well atleast blizzard had some insight and they gave free game days to people when their servers were down. Keeping customers happy is not stupid, I think.

    So if they think free time is in order they will give it. Whining about it doesn't help.

    If there was no whining, they would give nothing because then everyone would be happy. Whining about whining is very useless because if everything isn't going well there will always be someone whining, no matter what you say. And whining about whining about whining is even more useless, but can't play so posting here useless stuff.

    This is just a cooldown timer to ensure people don't spam the login server while the megaserver is offline. The timer is lifted after an hour or two.

    It worked fine for almost 12 hours.
    Than I got out of a dungeon and the loading screen for 30 minutes.
    Closed the game, the launcher, tried to login again... login time out and an error code.
    Restarted my computer and tried it again.
    Same error code.
    Restarted my router.
    Still the same error.
    Now the server is down for maintenance.
    We just have to wait..... arrgghh I want to play!

    its getting more and more interesting each weak playing ESO, Its like gambling. You win or lose in that case, all those maintenance's such far have been a bummer not really fixing issues only bringing more problems with them. Hope they will get it right eventually some day before game-time end's of the players base within the first 2 months.

    I think this stops you from spamming login, so when its down or starting back up they will gate people from coming in the server and overloading... who knows its a mystery number.

    *** morons bringing down server for maintenance primetime on a saturday. And they havent even had any easter event...

    I don't think this downtime was in any way intended -would you rather they just left it bugged till the next working day (Tuesday here in UK)?

    And Easter event? Since when does Tamriel celebrate Easter? I personally dislike events meant to mirror real world holidays - I prefer devs to make up their own that suit the world rather than just copy existing ones with no reason. Seasonal things like 'spring festival' or' harvest festival' are the only things that dont feel totally out of place.

    For all you fanboys saying WoW has random downtime...
    erm, no. I played wow for about 2 years and still log on the odd month here and there.

    There is hardly ever a random downtime, in fact I dont even remember having one

    Then you don't play it enough apparently. Try playing it for a week straight and you'll see the same issues TESO has, the only difference is that Blizz doesn't care even after 10 years of experience and TESO is still learning and responding to issues fairly fast.

    Played WoW for the last 6 years. So not sure why you're saying random untrue things about WoW. Maintenance is on set days in the morning (Tuesday for US, Wednesday for EU) and rolling restarts.There is no such thing as day long maintenance, no such thing as after 7pm-11pm ones, or during-weekend ones, when people who work have time to play.

    I've only had a chance to login five evenings since launch, in four of those I have either been unable to login or were chucked out cause it was time for maintenance.
    Am I just unlucky? Or someone that logs on every day perhaps can give a better assessment of the general downtime? As a casual player I can just cancel for a few months I guess and see if they get their act together but if it's plain bad luck I'll roll another month.

    Mathematically this represents about 1% from the whole month so lets not get carried away.

    There is info - They're investigating...
