We will be performing a scheduled maintenance on the European and North American megaservers tomorrow, Friday April 25nd.


Friday,. Really? Do it Thursday. But every weekend! Jesus. Its gonna stop people paying. How dumb can one company be? The last 3 Saturdays, its been down twice. I dont care if its in the morning, Its still Friday, the most common day that people take off work.

Am I the only one who thinks they need rejig their maintenance times? Am I being dumb or just arsey?

    you know the schedule is every tuesday/friday and yet you still come here and whine about the maintenance. I'm tired of all the whiners in the forums - if you're so unhappy with the game then I suggest two things for you to do. 1. Cancel your Sub 2. uninstall the game.

    Do you play on NA Servers? If yes, this isn't a "peak time". If no, so you're dumb :D

    My money's on both.

    It is Friday morning in North America. Most people work. This is not "peak time" unless you live in Australia, and that certainly doesn't represent the majority of the playerbase.

    To OP, Zenimax has officially stated that there will be 2 downtimes in a week and it's posted in the 'Server Status' so you have been well informed.

    TESO Fun-fact 2: There are 61 million items in the game

    I thought he maintenance times were only once per week (either T or F) ?
    This is like the 4th downtime this week during primetime AU. And to think I pay $14.99/mo for this kind of service...

    HOTFIX is when there is an update without downtime, maybe a restart but not downtime

    lol @ his arguments:

    "Peak time" being 8:00am.
    "Friday" being the day most people take off work.

    Great points!

    Morning isn't peak time, not if you're living in the US. Just because you happen to have the Friday morning off doesn't mean everyone else does.
    Now if you're in the AU timezone I can understand you anger, if you want them to move the scheduled time however you might want to actually give constructive feedback rather than insult them.

    Actually.. i made a rather huge post a few weeks ago about Friday being a bad night for maintenance.. and guess what.. its being changed to Thursday starting next week...

    actually read the forums before starting new topics.. this post is absolutely useless and and the way it is worded would never have been looked at by any one important..

    again here is the link you should read.

    Quite clearly stated, during early access even that they can be both, and as it is a new release, it will certainly be both. I hate to break it to you, but for MOST of the people that play on NA server, this is a good time for maintenance.

    You should have had a pretty good idea of what you were getting into with a new release MMO, this is actually much above average playtime than many other new releases.

    @anfmofo‌ Just a couple of things...

    1) Using a personal attack is against the forum TOS, your topic title is a personal attack.

    2) You are calling someone else an idiot because you did not read that Tuesday and Friday maintenance has been scheduled since pre-launch.

    3) If you did know that Tuesday and Friday maintenance is scheduled, well... I'll not violate the TOS by pointing out what that means.

    Welcome to the game being new. In time, the patches will come once a week, then once every two weeks, then once a month.. that is how it works.

    Yes exactly. Australian prime time. I just cancelled my sub. lets take the fact that I live in Aus out of it. There's this little thing called Release Management. The servers have been down around every second day.

    Zenimax, go have a read. Hell, you can even hire me as a consultant, would be happy to help you work out how to do Release Management.

    I love how all you experts know specifically what's wrong or how to this better than Zenimax. I'm sure you've launched many MMO's in your days so you've got this all down pat.
