I had the thought it could be my hardware more so my CPU perhaps, though I have tried running the game on all settings and there's no changes.
AMD Phenom II X4 oc'ed to 4.22gh (I have really good cooling)
8gig ram
two GTS 450's (1gig cards)
I've tried pinging the server with Command Prompt but no luck, can't figure out the IP address of the US mega server.
Hi Everyone,
The issue with NPC's, players, or objects not loading right away may have a couple different causes. We have a few troubleshooting steps you can try that may help resolve the problem.
1. Make sure your video card drivers are up to date.
Drivers are up to date
2. Lower your graphic settings in game. If you are at the Character Selection screen, you can change the video settings by clicking on the word Settings on the left-hand side, then making sure Video is selected. Set the graphics to minimum and also turn off grass.
No matter what video settings it makes no differences
3. Try making a change to your UserSettings.txt file.Did this, I recall it was "3" by default on Beta I believe, there was that issue where the game would completely freeze up for 3+ seconds randomly and the CPU would shoot up to 100% usage. The fix was moving this number to zero, I tried one, two and three only to have the random freezing come back, the higher the number the worse it would get.
- Go to your "My Documents/The Elder Scrolls Online" folder.
- Open the folder in there called "Live."
- Check to see if there is a file called "UserSettings.txt"
- Locate the line "SET RequestedNumThreads "X"
- Change the X from whatever number it may be to 0 first
- If you still have the issue, up the number by 1 and try again.
- (Example: You may have better results with it set to 3)
4. Try repairing the client files. There may be corruption in the game files causing the files to not load properly.
Did try repairing the client with no success, in the first Beta event I was in where the watermarks were still on the screen my computer would run the game like a hot knife through butter. Then the freezing and slow loading of environment and players came in the later Betas.

What does this setting do exactly? I have an i7-4770k and was thinking about testing different values to see if it changed performance.

I've also haven't had the time today to move the game over to my SSD

Got also this problem, mobs,npc,items etc load slow sometimes, tested different graph options and different drivers.
Sometimes i see that someone start hitting me and when i get /reloadui im already dead.
and it's not that my pc is to low specced,
Nvidia GTX660 Ti, intel i7-4770 proceccor and 16 gigs momery, game is installed to ssd drive
GTS450..so what? This card is even slower than a GTX280. A HD6670 is even slower than this really slow card is.
I hope you don´t excpect ESO to run optimal at a 5yrs old Hardware? Try tweaking your system or files...but at the end of the day you´ll have to face, that one day the time has come to upgrade
May also be, that it is a Driver thing.
@bosmern_ESO youl probably will see an improvement, but only if your cpu can handle it. To most ppl I´d say "better buy a CPU upgrade first" but in case of a GTS450 or HD6670 there is no doubt, that the GPU affects the performance. But when your CPU gets the bottleneck after GPU upgrade maybe you see no improvement.
