    Welcome to the club with PS4 and Xbox users who have had issues since update 29 with ZOS addressing nothing and fixing nothing.

    Nah, I wrote in the original rip pc eu thread too. Apparently, nothing seems to have changed, sadly. I really don't understand how hard it could be to actually fix at least some of these problems...

    @Madhojo If you bothered to check the original thread I linked to, the one the mods closed because it was "too old", you'd see that this has been a problem for PC/EU since U24/Dragonhold and the Witches Event of that year. So we got you "beat" by about a year and a half.

    In fact that other thread had been alive and well for those 18 months, only once falling for the 1 month necro rule of the forum. Playstation and XBox players have my deepest sympathies, but this is not a new issue for PC/EU in any way, shape or form.

    Due to a hardware issue, the European PC/Mac megaserver will be taken offline for maintenance.

    Well, there goes our morning.

    A lot of us would appreciate at least some time frames on that tbh.

    Upd: A min after eu server proclaimed in yellow "in about 10 min". Cash shop is down, seems it's the reason for such an emergency lol

    While that would be extremely nice, I imagine it might not be possible with an unplanned maintenance, since they might not know the exact cause. And as we all know, sometimes even a planned maintenance goes beyond the expected timeframe.

    That said, I'm sure they're just as eager as we are to get the server back up again. I was hoping to get on, too, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it won't take long for them to do/fix whatever it is they need to do/fix.
    I've fought mudcrabs more fearsome than me!

    This is most distressing, mostly because when PC EU goes down, i invariably end up getting banned from the forums.

    Please fix your servers so that i dont have to get banned from the forums again. I really do not like it when that happens.

    I'm hoping Microsoft sorts this out. I believe there will be some changes in the future.

    thats basically the most distressing part. we had a malfunctioning overheating server on my job few weeks ago and eta for diagnostics we were given by the hoster was 2 days.

    We were promised new servers in 2021. Are these coming December 31st Zos?

    It’s a hardware issue. That virtually never happens.

    Yeah that was what I was wondering. Like, we could really use that new hardware, because the current servers appear to be giving up the ghost, so to speak.

    Yeah, that's what I usually do during maintenance, if I want to play.

    Well, the main reasoning for the new servers was the increased chance of failures for the old. It seems they were right at that.
