  • GentlemanJunkie Gentleman Junkie (@GentlemanJunkie) reported

    @TESOnline @Xbox @PlayStation …and even that’s broken! It’s like taking a twin turbo Porsche to the shop, and they give you an upgrade that includes vinyl seats, removal of the turbos, a horsepower reduction on top of that, an am radio with speakers from an old Dodge Colt, and an orange paintjob!

  • SkyBlan BlueSky (@SkyBlan) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Logged in for short while then I was disconnect, now trying to log in again and it tells me that the system is undergoing maintenance again, but neither you / this site or other outlets is posting emergency maintenance again?

  • Playstheblues Kevin H (@Playstheblues) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Pathetic. Is the crownstore down/letting us to buy gems instead of gamblecrates? Only ongoing issue I have is: can't and won't be able to finish my dailies coz you guys couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery. Pick up your game...coz most of my guild is putting it down. :(

  • SteveGres Steven Gresham (@SteveGres) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline It's down because ZOS Script-writers CAN'T PROGRAM to save there lives... The server was up for about 45 minutes but everything was / still IS broken.

  • cyberfox1998 Cyberfox1998 (@cyberfox1998) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline could have given us a warning than just shutting the servers down **** move indeed

  • ivyriavalentina ivyvaleria (@ivyriavalentina) reported

    @Xbox @TESOnline my xbox broke can you fix it

  • Boracis Bryan Beacock (@Boracis) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Nice no notice your shutting servers down??? Moronic move. I better not have lost my progress getting my companion

  • Opurrrator Opurrrator (@Opurrrator) reported

    @TESOnline Fix your ******* game!

  • GrimmG10 GrimmG (@GrimmG10) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline you know. i don't mind maintenance. it keeps the servers working properly and what not. i don't even mind that you shut the servers back down because of crown store issues. the CS is quite a substantial stake in your finances. Can u add the down time to my eso+ please?

  • datfreakyderp DatFreakyDerp 🏳️‍🌈 (@datfreakyderp) reported

    @Madara0084 @TESOnline If you click on the link in the tweet, they've found the problem but could take hours to deal with.

  • Playstheblues Kevin H (@Playstheblues) reported

    @YuukiKo02632047 @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline like....there are a lot of issues apparently, but its the ones around crown store/endeavour points/etc that got the servers brought down with 0 notice as opposed to a fix in 3-17 years time.

  • kandace_hayes Kandace Hayes (@kandace_hayes) reported

    @TESOnline I keep clicking the login button like it's gonna let me in anytime soon :(

  • NickFirzen NickFirzen (@NickFirzen) reported

    @DeMillinOirish @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Same, during newest dungeon smh says server down, login attempts enabled in two min...

  • GentlemanJunkie Gentleman Junkie (@GentlemanJunkie) reported

    @TESOnline @Xbox @PlayStation If I could play without updating I would. All 18 of my characters will need to be reworked, pvp will still lag terribly, heavy attacks are gonna suck in pvp, snipe barely works and had already been nerfed to ****, we have a stupid card game instead of performance improvements…

  • frenchy614 Fr3nchy 🏳️‍🌈 (@frenchy614) reported

    @TESOnline I have a problem with purchase I made in the crown store. I send tickets to the French assistant online but the situation is complicated and they don't want to hear anything. Can someone contact me so I can explain the matter ?

  • Donna74437379 Donna (@Donna74437379) reported

    @TESOnline @Xbox @PlayStation Haters gonna hate 'cause they got no real skills. A busted meta isn't skill, it's offal. Keep up the hard work ZOS, but please fix the login situation. I'm happy to bumble through patches that change my set ups but if I have 1hr to play, I need to get on. Thx ami

  • phlupp89 Philipp Heinemann (@phlupp89) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Taking down the server without warning after introducing a patch to fix several bugs and implementing new issues in the process. No apologies. No explanations. Par for the course in ZOS-land. Ludicrous everywhere else.

  • Darkmoondriad Shelias (@Darkmoondriad) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Any details on the issue? Was it the crown store being unavailable?

  • seth61519695 seth (@seth61519695) reported from Thomasville, Georgia

    @TESOnline ESO takes servers down unannounced: Sorry here’s 25 crown tristat potions.

  • thoems70 T. H. (@thoems70) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline did you kill the login servers?

  • syzara 🦇 tigs 🦉🌛 (@syzara) reported

    @DarkPrinceRob @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline The whole issue with 'emergencies' is that you can't plan them. HTH HAND

  • YuukiKo02632047 Yuuki Konno (@YuukiKo02632047) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline What is "The Ongoing Issue"?

  • phlupp89 Philipp Heinemann (@phlupp89) reported

    @luminousfinn @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I know why they took the servers down. I also know where to look for the usual excuses. I am a long time player/customer. What I want to know: How do things like this keep happening? Don't care about todays issue. I care about the regularity of issues.

  • D0ntHeZitateAu Brad Graham (@D0ntHeZitateAu) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I thought maintenance was done?… juts kicked me out of the game and won’t let me login saying servers are undergoing maintenance

  • ghost196014 Mick Mazza (@ghost196014) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline When r u going to fix what you’ve just broken?

  • JacobAdjani Jacob Adjani (@JacobAdjani) reported

    @jffbrttn @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Jeff, I don't think that expecting the service you paid for to actually be delivered is unreasonable - this is particularly true of "avoidable issues"; the bug introduced is pervasive, immediately apparent when the server came up... this *should* have been caught in testing.

  • ReinaCr0wnd 🔞👑 Reina 👑🔞 (@ReinaCr0wnd) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline This update seems to have broken Rapid Strikes/Flurry for me. It's no longer doing a repeated stabbing but a long side swipe making it useless.

  • etreXgg etreX (@etreXgg) reported

    @TESOnline Unfortunate. Hope it's a quick fix. I'm eager to play!

  • JoyJ67705148 Joy J (@JoyJ67705148) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline After we the patch I waited for 10 minutes to log on..and as soon my character loaded on screen I was kicked out with the message “the servers are temporarily down for maintenance.please try later”…😠is there someone who turns on and off the servers????? FIX IT!!!!

  • kenokocomics Karl Lymer (@kenokocomics) reported

    @ProteusXL Maybe the biggest issue was is all those personalised weiners haha . To many different types in memory. If no one shows em off , whats the point of that ? Its as pointless as designing your character in Elder Scrolls : Oblivion (as you never see your character)
