We promise our Support Team is not trying to trivialize your issue when they send you that reply. That said, we understand that for some players, error 301 has other sources. When Support sends you an email and their advice doesn't help, please do not hesitate to reply letting them know. They'll be happy to either continue investigating the issue or put you in touch with another agent who can.
Below are several troubleshooting steps that we recommend folks try:
- Add eso.exe, the launcher, and account.elderscrollsonline.com as exceptions to your anti-virus and firewall programs.
- Launch ESO as administrator.
- Launch ESO straight from the file locations as opposed to a desktop shortcut.
- Manually check your launcher for updates.
- Repair your launcher.
@leilani96792, we've let our Support Team know that their first email did not go through and updated your ticket with the information you've provided here. It may help to add eso_help@helpmail.elderscrollsonline.com to your safe senders list.
I've done all that previously as well as again last night. However as a paying customer I want you to know that "too many people logging in at once" is not an acceptable excuse to prevent other paying customers to access your product.

I also tried to repair the game client as assigned but it didn't help.
Therefore I assume that the cause of the failure must be somewhere on the server site.
What I red in another thread.. if you login by a different IP, you may be able to login.
But this is not confirmed..

After spending the day reading all of the different threads on this it sound like they added some stealth bot nerf, which is catching anyone whose machine crashes or hangs and then banning their account from logging in. One lady had our situation. Went across the room to her husbands computer who was in game, logged him out, tried logging in on her account, was locked like we are with the dreaded timeout.
Same for me, havent been able to log in since after the patch finished. i got into the character select screen hit play then a loading screen till i had to restart my computer because it froze. over 30 hours of not being able to even get to the character select screen now.apantoliani wrote: »Getting up to 30 hours of lock out for me, even took off an extra day this weekend.
