How they can dont give any information...

Probably because Techs are not sure what's up and have no information to relay

They were made with the help of modders but that doesn't make them mods. Besides, the AE package makes them DLC now anyway.

is AE addons mods or not is a useless conversation

If anything, the Creation Club was already a marketplace similar to what other modern games have, making Creations more like buying Fortnite skins or something rather than mods, lol.

I just logged into skyrim and now I lost everything no mods or creations what's going on

I'm curious if Creation Club content is canon now with the existence of AE.

@subtle escarp I thought they said it wouldn't affect mods already loaded into your game

#

to be honest, one of the smartest things members of this community might do in order to get a response would be to @ some games journalists about this on twitter. i've done so, and one - someone with a preexisting relationship to bethesda - is attempting to find more information. this is a wide problem that folks in the media are starting to notice. so if you're really interested in getting a response, start asking people to look into it. the folks i've talked to are more than willing to look into it.

Having people start a fuss does not make techs work faster. That's not how that works. If you want an update, servers are down, they don't know when they will be up, just be patient, maybe play a different game?

#

It's been down all weekend, we are being patient

dusk cave
# subtle escarp It wouldn't. Unless you have a broken LO

My primary problem is just that I need to rearrange Load order in my game and I'm not even allowed to do that while all this is going on. I built a list from memory and picked up the game again about a day before all this started with no idea what was even about to happen. I'm just glad my memory is "good enough" and I'm missing only minor things.

# torpid steeple Having people start a fuss does not make techs work faster. That's not how that ...

has nothing to do with the techs working faster. that's a misrepresentation of the problem here, which is primarily about communication - and by the way, this is particularly timely considering that they're taking the FO 76 servers down tomorrow. sounds like a potential excuse to extend everything even further.

techs are one thing, but bethesda's employees - here, on this discord - are failing to communicate. some of us spent a bunch of money in order to play the game, and it's not easy to contact a retailer for a refund in my country. this is genuinely about consumer rights and corporate communication.

# abstract coral It’s a virtual video game that requires maintenance to run. Relax. It isn’t that...

for those of us who live outside the US, it's a continuation of a much larger problem. i can't even load the game, nor can i get a refund as someone in the US could. that's not how it works here. additionally, internet access is both metered and dated where i live. i had to buy internet access to download the game, and to download mods. that's money i'm not going to see again. and it's not acceptable.

The only thing I can think of (even having related job knowledge) is that someone else super pissed off with Bethesda internally deleted files and backups and said, “screw you.”

# torpid steeple I'm pretty sure you can play the game without the creation content and it wont b...

for some reason, i can't. my assumption is that my console started auto-downloading the creation club content just as servers went down, and i have a corrupted download - but i can't even check that. microsoft support just attributes it to bethesda's maintenance, and suggests i come here to ask for feedback. if you look on twitter, every one of their messages redirects people here - to the discord - for updates. and there haven't been updates, at all.

good suggestion, thank you. i tried that. issue still continues. and i cannot delete the game and redownload it on my home console, responsibly, because i need to buy internet access for a specific chunk of time; the only way i can justifiably afford doing that again is if i know i can download both the game and everything else i need, because it's not cheap.

In the tech industry, downtime on these levels are seldom held as acceptable... Especially for server maintenance. I get that this isn't a large team now nor a priority. I'm trying to be patient and understand, even attempting to turn this into a positive addition to my life if the mods don't eventually ban me over how I naturally write (sorry mods, I'm trying to figure out what levels of speech you all are comfortable with here, my bad)

They clearly broke something during the maintenance and likely did not work on the weekend to fix it.

This is unacceptable as they forcibly took ownership of mod distribution and then monetized it. Part of the responsibility of owning mod distribution is providing uptime for that service, including weekends.

It depends on the architecture of the distribution system. Skyrim mods are large and won't fit on a single host, and serving those mods will require several machines. It's unlikely this was a one machine upgrade.

This maintenance could, for example, have been an upgrade in the file format used to store mods on their backend. A bug here can be extremely difficult to recover from unless they already had backups in place.

My criticism is around the apparent failure to staff an oncall rotation for this service we were forced to pay for.

twitter is sending people here to talk about the maintenance. we have few options, and no information. turning up slowmode and turning off reacts doesn't help the fanbase figure out what's going on - and, in fact, will only make people act out more creatively.

my favorite mod is inigo because he's a cat or something w/e, what's your favorite mod? can you access it? can you help me access mods at all? if not, the twitter should stop directing people to this specific place

At this point all we really want are answers. We've been telling the mods what we want and if they can't handle that, maybe they were the wrong people to give the job to. Even if they have no way of getting any updates, if the dev team contacts them and there's no way for the mods to ask them for more information, at least tell us that. Show us that the people we can contact are at least trying to communicate. People tend to be pretty understanding if you actually explain the situation.

@slim reef you Guys might ACTUALLY have a Publicity Problem snowballing right here on the chats... All this is going to go somewhere. I'm watching this train wreck too. There isn't going to be productive conversation on this thread until something is done... Whether that is locking down the thread and letting people's frustrations go elsewhere or posting a public notice just advising people against continuing this any farther as a general notice is up to you all. Sorry you have to deal with this but it really won't STOP till people know... It's the uncertainty that is causing this.

So are you guys able to communicate with the devs? Is anyone in this server able to communicate with the devs? I get it, with how everyone's being, I understand if you don't wanna tell us WHO is contact with the devs, but if there is anyone, could you please ask them to ask for more updates? Even if nothings actually changed, just some more info on why it's taking so long, what we should be expecting when it's done, things like that. Again, I get it if you don't wanna say WHO has access to the devs, but if there is someone you know of who does, could you just message them and tell us that you've asked on our behalf?

@slim reef So instead of any sort of answer, or info, the mod comes I'm and punishes the folk who have been very patiently waiting for (according to bethesda) 5 days for even a peep about what is going on.

I feel bad for the mods here actually. It’s not like they are deliberately withholding information - like us, they aren’t getting any themselves and someone with a fancy title at Bethesda is probably doing a really bad job of running the project. Doesn’t help us and no doubt there will be a carefully crafted piece of PR speak when all is done. However, the damage to reputation is hard to recover.

I'm not saying that the mods here are doing anything malicious.

They're our best chance at getting any sort of information on what's happening. If it's just a one way communication, tell us that. If they can ask the devs on our behalf, please do and let us know that they're at least trying to do more than just waiting for updates.

If there is more paid mods added to creation club then what of us who have bought anniversary edition that has granted us all of the creation club content? Do we automatically get it or do we have to buy Anniversary edition^2? I don’t mind the idea of paid mods at all as long as they’re like dlc sized mods and not $2 armor mods that look as bad as The Lords Mail. If it’s mods like Legacy of the Dragonborn or Sim Settlements then yes absolutely let em rip I love mods that expand the game massively but keep it on to par with lore in the games. Either way whatever this update is I doubt it’ll hurt us that much bc if they are paid mods we can simply 🎉ignore them🎉

I’m not saying all community mods will become monetized, but I have no doubt bethesda will make certain paid mods that are far higher quality than regular free mods at least for creation club standards. I could see console players getting a bonus from this, there modding scene is so lack luster compared to pc

# gentle owl why not,for post below nexus does somthing similar

Because they’re implementing Marketplace. You’ll have marketplace, CC, and Community Mods. Marketplace from my understanding is mods that content creators sell. However, they have to be endorsed by Bethesda. This is so content creators can make a career out of modding which is a good thing. Community Mods will be here to stay. They aren’t gonna destroy that. It would be an absolute dumb financial move. Y’all need to chill out and stop assuming the worst and spreading misinformation. This is why so many people have issues rn. We need to chill out. No one knows what is going on behind the scenes at Bethesda. Y’all need to chill out. And no, you’re wrong @rustic ore .They are not going to choose which ones are monetized and which ones aren’t. It’s up to the content creator themselves as long as they’re endorsed by Bethesda.

It’s definitely a challenge. But I don’t care how large the company is or if they check those little boxes on compliance audits saying “Yep! We got those backups ready to go.” Seen that play out multiple times where they realize “Uh oh… turns out our backups weren’t valid and we just assumed so…” Doing maintenance in a live environment is no joke but I don’t think I’ve seen the lack of communication in a situation like this ever be for a positive reason. It’s usually stall until they can form some plan for damage control.

# spiral jackal Vote for me! Bethesda's new PR rep!

I’m sure it’s not the community managers who are at fault. They have things they can and can’t say. They’re community managers for a reason. Saying too much could cost them their jobs. They’re as transparent as they’re allowed to be. I doubt they’re happy about the lack of transparency they’re giving out and I bet they sick of seeing all the complaining. Do not take it out on the community managers. They’re people too, they understand how we feel. Yes it’s frustrating but the game itself is playable, chill out

It's definitely damage control, but it screams of a problem that is at least partially out of their hands and not something they want to comment on until they are 100% sure of how things are gonna play out. Considering this is the first time in however many years since CC has been out that something like this has happened, it seems like the kind of emergency you always fear but can never plan for. Which is something that you always try to eliminate, but of course the other one is just around the corner. I work in a similar environment and we have a lot of vendor dependence and sometimes when you are trying to fix something you have to just sit around and wait for someone to reply to your email/call and nothing can be done until that info gets on

So you’re here to harass people for doing their jobs at the fullest of their extent? You clearly do not understand how jobs work then. When your boss tells you to do something you do it, unless it conflicts with your morals and is something that makes you uncomfortable. You shouldn’t be here if you’re here to harass the mods of this server and the people working hard to get their maintenance fixed and done.

At least the latest update gave us an idea of what is going on. They are not running just software update, but hardware as well. Bethesda's servers have been somewhat unpredictable, so there could be two options.

  1. They were smart and started building the whole thing from scratch. Things just haven't gone as smoothly they expected with setup. That would be completely understandable. Even experienced team can encounter surprises.

  2. Someone decided to run the old software to new hardware. Universe is resisting and pixies are now running rampage around their servers. In the end, small and horrible Diabolihuahua rises from the frozen lake and we all end up as infernal lapdogs. Humanity is doomed. Age of small dogs has begun.

Let's hope they chose wisely.

Number two sounds fun 👌

Yay! Waiting a whole entire week to even play a minute of the game. Awesome. It doesnt seem like a simple task to complete full scale maintenance on CC and mods but why an entire week.

Depends on your definition of "going."

Honest question I always thought if you move to new hardware or have more extensive maintainance on it's standard buisness practice to have a second set of hardware as fallback if something goes horribly wrong and also if de LE upgrade is basicly defunct right now why is it still being sold cause while i don't want to accuse someone or a company of something well selling acces to something which is inaccessable at the moment and no mentions when or if it might be accesable again might lead some people to think they fell for a fraud

I've gotta correct you on that. They didn't say that it was the hardware. All they said was "server maintenance continues". What that tells me is that they're still trying to fix/update/maintain the CC/Mod servers. Edit: I stand corrected. The word "hardware" is in there once, talking about hosting mods. So... I guess the issue is they made an oopsie daisy, causing the hardware to not work properly.

Honestly I think they tried something like that I'm not sure though because the gog version works fine so I'm almost certain it's a steam/valve issue when it comes to the AE content, not to mention technically Special Edition still exists as does CC as a buy what you want ignore what you don't, gog doesn't have that the only version really available is AE so I assume when valve blocked them initially they were like well cc already exists no need to push the issue any further they can just dl it from within the game.
