Just give it a bit of time, boot another game to get lost in, maybe have a snack and meanwhile the IT team will get the servers back up and running. It's only been a handful of hours by now. It think the only people who should be expressing their concerns are those who are perhaps losing their chances on today's tickets due to their time zone. And I'm pretty sure if there's no chance left for players from certain countries to collect those, ZoS will take care of it aswell.
Unless the ticket KI gives up on working aswell, I suppose.
It would be easier to accept something like this if it did not happen all the time. They give us way too many opportunities to fall in love with other games. I hope things will change in quartal 3 (where they wanted to start focusing more on quality of life stuff and bug fixes). Never played a game with more performance issues, bugs and server problems at primetime...3 -

That's the genius of the f2p/eso+ model. Buying a chapter gives access to the new content. Eso+ gives a bunch of perks (crowns/bagspace/...), but server uptime is "free". Officially we're not paying for that, so the servers could be down 6 days of the week and ZoS would still have fulfilled their contractual obligations.1 -

ajkb78✭✭✭✭✭@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_Kevin This has affected all the EU servers throughout Sunday prime time and looks like it probably won't resolve until after many players' bedtime. A lot of players who would have bought luxury furnishings this evening will have missed the chance. The corals are actually pretty useful for Hermaeus Mora themed houses (good for a tentacle feel) so please can you either extend Zanil's working hours by a day this week so we have the chance of buying them tomorrow evening, or add this week's furnishings on to next week's selection so we can at least buy them then rather than having to wait a whole year for them to come round again?4

I'm afraid you might be a bit optimistic in your thinking. Compensating players for the service being unavailable would be a dangerous precedent, if they give a compensation once they'd have to keep doing so in the future.
Oh, but they've done it before. Don't forget, the moment PC NA experienced even a fraction of the disaster that PC EU regularly goes through, they threw 150% scrolls at everyone in a desperate apology. PC EU is the redheaded stepchild for sure and ZOS aren't even shy about showing that.5 -

You have to buy the game to play, whether that is just the base game or a chapter bundled with the base game and previous chapters. ESO+ doesn't come into it. ESO is definitely not F2P.Edited by Hamish999 on July 2, 2023 9:19PMPC-EUDo'Zahra - Khajiit - StamDK - AD

Ha, I wouldn't ask them to change timers. If their lack of care about Cyrodiil is any indication, next week just won't *have* a luxury furnisher if they start fiddling.1 -

I get what you're saying, but there's a big difference between a desperate apology and an actual compensation.

Rufusstan✭✭Back in as well, and not dead. When I got booted I was moved out of where I was. Server status page now says all are up. No queue so either I beat the rush, or everyone has given up and gone to bed.0

SKNSoul Shrivenwhat compensation? a butterfly? a 150% scrolls? just play? seriously, i want just "play"
When eastern live-service games (especially newer ones) have a maintenence (scheduelled or otherwise), you're usually compensated with premium currency, or rare materials. So for ESO, that'd be either Crowns, Crown gems, or improvement materials.
So with that theme, I think the best choice is giving out gems, as it's a lot more difficult (expensive) to aquire normally, and something everyone (subscriber or otherwise) would appreciate.
So with that theme, getting an reasonable amount would be something like, 25-50 for unscheduelled on weekdays, and 50-100 for weekends (scheduelled or unscheduelled).8 -
