    Both servers are always down on patch and normal maintenance days. The times PC/EU is down alone are due to issues specifically with that server.

    Is it possible to have a better server? I don't know much about computers so I don't even know where servers are even kept. I imagine a supercooled run with lots of fans running and a bunch of super computers in the background.

    As per the title. You are correct. 2 hours extra should do

    They need to make sure lag in Cyrodiil is consistent. Can't have lag free spots on the map.

    It's not exactly a single server or machine. It's a "farm" of machines most likely, and sure you can have a better server - if you're willing to pay a premium for it. Now, I'm not sure if the servers have migrated to Microsoft's platforms since the purchase of ZOS by MS; at the point I started playing over 3 years ago, the servers were platformed on Amazon Web Services IIRC.

    Then we will have the very exclusive PC/EU maintenance extension.

    Followed by taking the PC/EU server down for maintenance a couple of hours later due to some players experiencing difficulties logging in aka hamsters going (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ and everyone being unceremoniously booted.

    After that we should be OK, probably.

    Its good to see the hardware for once, I remember seeing servers in rows in old films from 20 years ago they had lots of lights too although I guess the lights flash a bit more quickly these days and hopefully there isn't showers of sparks coming out of these servers like those in the old films ;)

    I cant play in 4 days, only today, and boom... ESO community doesnt deserve this, EU community will have 7 hours of manteinance at day light, and noone is ashamed of this, because it happens again and again, noone will compensate us, noone will say sorry and stop this from happening, this is desesperating.

    It's really daunting to think that all those lights blinking on a computer meant something was going on in the background 0.0 don't know what they're doing but it's a lot of blinking

    I agree, 6 hours isn't enough. If it's not at least 10 hours with an extra 5 hour extension it's not a real maintenance. We here at PC/EU expect better from ZOS—we demand longer maintenences.

    Yes we want 24h maintenance minimum on EU,plus we want to see our server to be even laggier than before after maintenance and we want a 30 min loging queue.
