Yea that was sad to see especially since I had just got in and was excited to see what's up. I was one of the 3-day early peoples (who probably brought it down*sneaky*) so sorry about that people! ; )
Originally posted by Tamanous I'd love to actually get on the forums. No invite yet to forums. Hell I can't even figure out how to setup a sub payment.
Forums are either offline too, or being DDOS'ed by the amount of people trying to log onto them. Currently getting a 404 page not found error
Actually wasn't even talking about now. Still no invite code and no links under my account to choose a sub plan.
"NOTICE: The server is currently unavailable while we perform scheduled maintenance. We expect the server to be online again shortly. Please visit the forum for updates".
I just fear that it doesnt fix my login problems, sadly.
Could be what the maintenance is for, I doubt it's for the quest bug as many are thinking, if they had an actual fix for that people wouldn't be seeing it today still.

I was quite surprised to have not seen a server wide "we will be taking the server down for maintenance in x minutes" message. I thought I had missed it

Well I don't actually know how many who has this "your login or password was incorrect" problem, so it's hard to say. Hopefully it will be fixed.
I dont know how many bugs there are regarding quests etc., since I haven't played the game at all besides some few hours in beta.
Just got booted and now every time I try to log in it says "Your login credentials don't allow you to play on this server" or something like that...
Anyone else?
(Also there is a note that says the server is down for Unscheduled Maintenance)
Same here.. Beta had many login issues, and seems the early access does, too.. I didn't think deciding to have one huge mega server was a great idea,and i still don't believe it is.. Now we have to suffer as they scratch their heads trying to fix these login issues, when the real issue is server congestion from trying to log in from the launcher.....

yeah and there is a note on the forums saying server will be back up later this afternoon (it's 12:57pm EST) so i guess that will take some long hours.
Its a good thing we have mmorpg, or I would have spamed customer support asking why I don't have permission to use my account. the way they word it almost sounds like you been hacked. lol

I hate servers with passion. I freakin hate having 10-100 servers for Europe. You always run the risk of ending up on a dead server. Having one server only for each region is brilliant. I would rather have some launch issues then having 20 servers.

The main consensus on the quest issue was load related. IE not a bunch of different quest errors, but one problem with phasing causing an issue with spawns. This was never actually confirmed as far as I know though.

Maybe they didn't have time to give warning. Maybe something went wrong.
And of course, being "company guys" with no clue" they try to cover their tracks by saying "scheduled maintenance" since it's easier to forgive "forgetting to tell players it's maintenance time" over "oops - that shouldn't happen!"
If that was the case they should say "oops, sorry folks with the overwhelming success of headstart we discovered an issue and are quickly working to fix it. Because of this and because we know that this will dissapoint a lot of people, we are going to x, y and z as a way of saying 'sorry'"
In any case, that's just a theory.
Like Skyrim? Need more content? Try my Skyrim mod "Godfred's Tomb."
Yea, "You arent allowed to play on this realm" was pretty rude.
This is (I suspect a GIGO issue. Garbage In, Garbage Out.) Programmer puts in a line of code as a placeholder and it doesn't get updated to 'At this time an error has....blah, blah'.
After the 10K complaints after this outage (which was probably to either fix some really broken things or patch a big game breaker) someone will go in and retype it.

Not that it is related but I found it odd how many gold spammers are in game creating new characters to spam. Ignore is accoutn wide as far as I know so they seem to have their hands on a ton of accounts which are not free to create. Are those all hacked accounts?
Zenimax shut down the servers so that people like myself would go eat something, they don't want lawsuits from families of people who starve to death playing their game

Please allow me to rephrase my words and meaning.. The actual idea of having thousands of people playing together in one huge mega server is awesome. But it's also very tough to accomplish successfully.. I hope they do work out the kinks within a week or two. But I can guarantee that this is going to be a frustrating process for a while.. They may have to end up creating a few more servers within a month, or everything will magically fix itself in time..

Maybe they could have followed it with "April fools, its just maintenance."
Yea that was sad to see especially since I had just got in and was excited to see what's up. I was one of the 3-day early peoples (who probably brought it down*sneaky*) so sorry about that people! ; )
Anyways, I'm excited to get back in there soon!
Actually wasn't even talking about now. Still no invite code and no links under my account to choose a sub plan.

Death is nothing to us, since when we are, Death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.
My Argonian may have been warming up on the server banks and caused problems but I won't admit to it.
You stay sassy!
OH PLEASE hurry and get them back up and online!!

Perhaps they found out about some game-breaking bug like a dupe or some other serious exploit.
In other MMOs like EQ, they used to take the servers down without warning to fix stuff like that.
I just hope there is some explanation as to why they were taken down like that, certainly not cool..
Hahaha so true mate. I was just thinking about making a nice bike ride down to the grocery to pick up even more amazing ESO Release party snacks ; },,
Interesting that one fellow had a overflow server option already though.
