Delay for the release of Greymoor

While I agree this is not the time of celebration delaying the release of Greymoor has impact, at least to me. We live in an area that Internet speeds are VERY limited and your updates get larger EVERY TIME. Not releasing the Standard edition on disk means we have to download 90Gb, at 1Gb/hr, of data, twice. I made arrangements to be at an area that I could get better bandwidth for the day of the release. Now I either have to find another source of bandwidth or wait 90+ hours times 2 to get this update.
There are unintended consequences of your actions that impact your customers. Several of your choices have impacted us, 1) Not selling the Disk version 2) in the delay of your release 3) the size of the game download.
I know I am only one person and will not affect your company one way or another but I wanted to let you know that if I am affected others might be.

✭✭✭✭✭When has Zos released a chapter via disk? Seems that the COVID related delay of the chapter is irrelevant to Zos not releasing chapter or even DLCs via disk. As such, I fail to see how the delay has had any impact on your situation.
Further, the COVID related delay was announced over a month ago giving anyone plenty of time to adjust their schedules if needed. A great number of software releases were delayed due to the impact COVID has had on the industry and the world. Zos did not cause the issue. They merely responded to the issue as best as could be like pretty much all of us have and currently still are.

So you wanted the game released on several double sided double layer DVDs when many newer PCs don't come with DVD readers anymore, and then you'd... what? Wait several days or weeks for the double sided double layered DVDs with the update to be pressed and shipped?
You don't mention that you have a PC or console, but there would have to be console versions of both releases as well, and I don't even know which consoles have the capability to read double sided double layered disks, but I'm not interested enough to even google it.
Sorry.The problem with society these days is that no one drinks from the skulls of their enemies anymore.0 -
Jinxxy85✭✭✭Am I missing something here? Are you a new player? If not then why are you needing to redownload the whole game? And aren't update sizes reduced since we all downloaded the game again at the start of the year? Sorry if I'm just being dumb and missing the point.1 -

No, they don't. They're probably loading it up on multiple machines. The update isn't going to require redownloading the entire game twice for anyone. The game isn't even 90 gigs large anymore on consoles besides that.
Regardless, they really should just let players preload on large downloads like this. I'm guessing the patch will be 40 gigs tops since they improved the patching system, but that's still the better part of a day for many people.2 -

But not in this case. ZOS made the call to delay, possibly causing problems for some of their customers, as in this case.
This decision has two sides. On one hand, it is a way to pay respect and is commendable. On the other hand, it's "just" a funeral - you're not spitting on his grave by releasing content which was scheduled weeks ago. For example, Bungie ARE releasing their new Destiny 2 DLC tomorrow. But they also raised funds for certain organizations.
Fact of the matter is, this delay is arbitrary. It is not a necessity, a must, as were some pandemic delays. So while ZOS are respecting a dead man, they're also kind of disrespecting their customers. I don't have a problem with it, it's a minor inconvenience to me and there are worse things, like what happened. But for people like the OP, who had to plan things beforehand for the 9th release, it's not very fair.10 -

What Bungie did is not relevant to what Zos chooses to do.
It does not appear Zos' decision was arbitrary at all if it was to delay the release so it does not coincide with Mr. Floyd's funeral. It certainly was not random and it seems to have been made out of having a social conscience it is not tyrannical either. It is a serious situation and I respect Zos' choice to show respect for this man and make such a profound statement concerning the discussion in our nation and world.
Yes, I can understand it is inconvenient for some people. Heck, I have been known to take a day off when an update was being released. However, again, this is still life interrupted. We find a way to deal with the change in date and move on.Edited by idk on June 9, 2020 6:02AM4 -

We cannot preload on PC. We cannot start downloading the patch until well after maintenance has started. We have our launchers open so the update starts downloading when it is available, though that is not perfect either. If consoles cannot do something similar that is not on Zos, but those who run the consoles.Edited by idk on June 9, 2020 6:05AM5 -

✭The console updates will be smaller following the last major update, so technically this should be smaller than 90gb, although how much remains to be seen
The update to console had been delayed for some arbitrary reason about a funeral that has nothing to do with ESO and for those who wanted to attend it - well they could have simply “not played” - so I don’t actually buy it’s for that reason at all, more likely to emergency Retrofit all the patches in as mentioned on the pinned post on this very forum.
But that’s just my opinion

It doesn't fit your expectations or desires, so automatically they are lying to cover an ulterior motive?
It's out of respect. Period. It's a common practice.

The decision does not seem to be arbitrary at all. It seems to be a conscious choice of Zos to make a solid statement of support for social issues at the forefront of the USA community. That is more than my opinion as Zos seemed pretty clear about this with their statement that #BlackLivesMatter. That said this was more than about a funeral.
BTW, they have to pass patches through the consoles before they can be released except in the situations of emergency patches. So if there was an emergency update to the chapter they would have been able to bypass the red tape.2 -
Myrm✭✭✭ESO is not the only game to have updates delayed due to current world events Ark Survival devs have done the same.
I remember back in 2001, there was a new incarnation of Microsoft Flight Simulator due for release on or just after 11 Sept 01. That was delayed by one week out of respect to the victims of the September 11th attacks. MS even went as far as removing the World Trade Centre towers from that game before they released it.
Yes, it can be annoying when these things happen, especially if you’ve been looking forward to a certain date for a while. But it’s just a one day delay. I’ve had far bigger life-changing events hit me in life, and I managed to get through it, so I guess I can wait one more day.
I’m not sure why some guy is claiming he has to download 90Gb of data. I have the game (all current chapters and dlc) on XBox 1X, and it’s just shy of 69 Gb.Edited by Myrm on June 9, 2020 7:57AMPC & Xbox (EU)

Uhh. Right "Just a funeral". ZoS isn't disrespecting anyone by this decision, people are just choosing to see it as a negative. Wonder why. When things don't affect them, they must not just care.

Glurin✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭IMO, they should have left the hashtag off because it makes the message sound a little like virtue signaling. Other than that, it's basically just them saying they'll delay the launch by a day out of respect for a tragic event that a lot of people nationwide have emotionally tied themselves to. It's the corporate version of yielding to a funeral procession at an intersection, so why should I have a problem with it?"He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster...when you gaze long into the abyss the abyss also gazes into you..."0 -

That’s not true Sony and Xbox made changes a year and a half to two years ago allowing companies to do same day patches there’s no longer a time period of days for patch certification. Played Smite for the last 4 years and they adjusted their console patches after they made those certification changes so they could release patches for all platforms the day of and have cross platform play. And yea delaying the patch because of his death is silly tbh. Raise money for the cause do something but just delaying a patch for his memory is just signaling of the highest order.4 -

This is really an entirely unrelated and very hugely different set of events, the fact is that was an attack on America, ZoS is literally delaying a download, already paid planned and set into motion. Funny how they are not shutting down the servers worldwide, including PC, nor are they shutting down the crown store heaven forbid. And do not bring about the BLM movement as they arent doing a damn thing about that, in fact it is about a man who died, mourning a man who has had a wrongful death. Nothing to do with anything else happening in the world, nothing to do with any of the rest of anything that has any matter to it.
If any of us had someone die or a death of someone near to us, or lets say hmm the thousands of people that are literally murdered daily, why are they not doing anything about them?7 -

Bungie's actions are an example. To underline that releasing new content today is NOT disrespectful. Therefore, this delay really is a seemingly random and odd choice to show sympathy.
And as you said yourself, what about people who took a day off for the launch? Their employer surely won't give them another day because of Floyd's funeral. Basically, to honor Floyd in their way, ZOS are "damaging" their customers. It's not a big thing and slightly exaggerated, but this is what they're doing.
Again, paying respects is good. I just think ZOS should have done it in a different way.2 -

TheWoanderer✭✭✭Sadly this decision of delay only affects Console users, so of course it could feel almost like a punishment... Of course, it isn't.
Unfair on console users? Yes... Certainly.
Understandable decision from ZOS? Of course.
Admirable decision from ZOS? Debatable....
In truth. Maybe they should have just shut down ESO on all servers because as my buddy stated. Not everyone will be sitting at home 'doing nothing' out of respect today.
People will still be in game.
But that would have caused hell.
Maybe, as has been stated by others. The sale of a pet or mount and the proceeds going to a charity would have garnered more respect. Something that all servers could engage in.
Like killing Dragons for Cats?
But looking at world events and those that lead us reminds me of a saying...
Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit,
Wisdom is knowing that you don't put it in a fruit salad.
I personally feel that another course of action could have had a far more positive effect. But I'm just a wood elf, what do i know except for the fact that I'm not allowed to eat tomatoes 😉
It is what it is, and we just have to roll with the punches. In the grand scheme of things I guess we should be grateful that at least, hopefully... The current events will bring about the end of that horrid disease that is racial discrimination.
ZOS's decision seems unlikely in aiding that and other developers may have made more intelligent decisions. So hats off to them.
One last note though. Given the issues surrounding the launch on PC and the level of frustration exuded by those affected.... Today is not the day for that level of dissatisfaction and the launch today would have inevitably had a level of it.3 -

I agree wholeheartedly with your first three points though I would call it an inconvenience to console users vs unfair. As far as being an admirable decision, that it is understandable probably depends on people's opinions on the important movement related to this decision.1 -
Bekkael✭✭✭✭✭So, PC can't preload a chapter expansion either? Huh, so it's equally lame across all platforms.
I think ZOS should seriously rethink that. So many games that have pre-purchase also have preloading, for the CONVENIENCE OF THE CUSTOMER. Since internet service speed varies so much, place to place, I personally think companies that allow a preload to customers that have already turned over their money, just makes good sense. Having it unlock at actual release time, and being able to actually play then, instead of just beginning a lengthy download (for some) should be universal practice for digital purchase, IMO.~~ Lady Gamer ~~ ♥ ~~ Xbox NA ~~1
