✭So, it the boxes are set on AP gains why would anyone in their right mind play BGs besides clearing the achievements? BGs AP gain<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Cyrodil AP gains. Please chime in if I am misunderstanding the way the midyear mayhem boxes are obtained..."Stendarr's mercy be upon you, for the vigil has none to spare."1 -

or are you also just going to ignore posts about this issue?
funny.. while typing this, cyrodiil crashed again for everybody :P
Hey Doc, infinite loading screens are one of those things, like lag, that is a very broad issue and something we've heard about off and on to varying degrees since launch. (Some people get them, some don't, for some it's only certain zones, only certain times of day, etc.) We'd like to understand if this something that has recently gotten worse. If so, are you able to estimate when it started getting worse and on what platform/region? And is it everywhere or just in Cyrodiil?

One cause of the issue is invisible people or people that are "in the ground." If there is someone in your group that is invisible or "in the ground", your group experiences more load screens. If they run away far enough away from the group and then run back they become visible.
My guild does what we call "visibility checks" every time someone new joins the group. We all gather up and everyone checks to see if they can see the person. If someone can't see them, we ask them to run away from the group and run back. When they run back they are visible. This minimizes load screens.

Seriously..... Comments like @ZOS_JessicaFolsom quoted above make me wonder if you guys have booted up your game on a console ever.
Do a forum search on lag or cyrodiil and start reading. On XB1 NA, since you forced us into 2 cp campaigns it's been bad, especially at EST prime time, 7pm - 11pm. But it's iffy outside of that as well.
I still love and support this game, but how can you not have a tracker or something in place for these issues like you did with the maw fix that only took what? 6 months? To implement?
If you're actually actively looking at this thread, PLEASE take a look at this link that got passed over. I have well written, organized legitimate concerns that haven't received a response.

Riggsy✭✭✭✭Oh great, double AP...
@ZOS_JessicaFolsom what are you guys doing to stop the outpost/resource flipping that was abused last time? What will you do this time when other exploits are found and people (usually who never PVP) use them to rank up? Why not keep AP the same but reduce the cost of everything by half?
I feel like if you (ZOS) had an event that made all the vet trials easier (like cut mob and boss HP/Damage in half) some people would be angry that the coveted titles and accompanying loot were cheapened, but somehow giving out extra AP like its EXP is okay...
I guarantee you there will be an exploit and people will abuse the heck out of it like last time to rack up crazy AP (which also crashed the market for a time...).MMAGA - We Made Medium Armor Great AgainEvasion: Casting this ability and its morphs now requires that you wear 5 pieces of Medium Armor.

Guess this explains why it's never been fixed you guys don't even see it as a problem. Well, FYI it's really common and the main reason I rarely group in PVP. There is a very good chance that if I join a group in Cyrodiil I will experience infinite load screens if I die and have to respawn at a nearby keep or if the group moves on mass to a specific keep/outpost. Once you have the infinite load screen curse it's quicker to ride to where you want to go rather than buy a ticket to the transit shrine lottery. I would say 90%+ of infinite load screens in PVP occurs for me when I'm grouped.
I'd like to add this as been an issue for me for 2+years, on both servers.Edited by Forztr on 18 July 2017 22:102 -

Please, ZOS. When the servers are crashed and we can't play have of next week, have the switch ready to extend the event by a week or even two more. This is a PvP event we're talking about. When was the last time we had one of these?
Ruze Aulus. Mayor of Dhalmora. Archer, hunter, assassin. Nightblade.
Gral. Mountain Terror. Barbarian, marauder, murderer. Nightblade.
Na'Djin. Knight-Blade. Knight, vanguard, defender. Nightblade.
XBOX NARuze is a veteran of the PC Beta, lived through the year one drought, survived the buy-to-play conversion, and has stepped foot in the hells known as Craglorn. He mained a nightlbade when nightblades weren't good, and has never worn a robe. He converted from PC during the console betas, and hasn't regretted it a moment since.
He'd rank ESO:TU (in it's current state) a 4.8 out of 5, loving the game almost entirely.
This is an multiplayer game. I should be able to log in, join a dungeon, join a battleground, queue for a dolmen or world boss or delve, teleport in, play for 20 minutes, and not worry about getting kicked, failing to join, having perfect voice coms, or being unable to complete content because someone's lagging behind. Group Finder and matchmaking is broken. Take a note from Destiny and build a system that allows from drop-in/drop-out functionality and quick play.0 -

Note that some achievements will require the Imperial City DLC game pack and the ESO: Morrowind Chapter to complete.
@ZOS_JessicaFolsom
Locking this event to some of the content dlcs/chapter is bogus unless we are granted free access to them for the duration of the event. I may just quit the game because of this.
Just because i don't own Morrowind i can't get this awesome costume hat... thanks (sarcasm).PS4 NA DC2 -
ProfesseurFreder✭✭✭✭✭Yeah, this is an event that's Completely Useless to players like me. I hope all the folks who enjoy killing other players and stealing their stuff (which is all PVP means to me) have a Grand Old Time. You won't see me there.
What the hell is a "Tel Var stone," anyway? Ahhh, don't answer that, I really could care less. I give this event a rating of "PFFFFFFFT!"

I've seen much longer loading screens especially in Morrowind, IC, and DLC zones since Morrowind release. What were typically 10-30 seconds are now 1-2 minutes; it's not back up to the 5 minute screen of death from a year ago. This is on Mac, NA. I've heard a lot of similar complaints in guild chat, and it's been disruptive to IC events.
It wouldn't hurt to set up a poll in general or bugs?

Pretty much this. For the most part it's hard to make an event that apeals to -everyone- so this isn't a bad trade-off.PC/NA: Primarily Daggerfall Covenant.

Both are a joke, the sets dropping in the new dungeons are not a reason to grind. Maybe that light set is worth testing but nothing in terms of monster sets.
New trail is also a joke, when it too us 5+ months to just complete Sanctum Ophidia and 3+ Months to finish vMOL, 2 hours after release of morrowind early access vHOF was done.
If anything, i am looking forward to this event, last double AP event i did not farm AP at all and played "legit", the amount of grand overlord grinders is insane, honestly i will do the same this time, will grind as much AP as possible, PvP is seriously unbalanced and unhealthy (especially for mDKs) so i will take advantage.mDKs still need a lot of love!0 -

Here what i noticed personally on the loading screen
- pve zone, i never ever encounter the problem. I have some long load screen from time to time when entering an instance or such, but not much a problem.
The only problem, is if i am in a queue for group finder, and suddenly having a loading screen to change area, most of the time i lost my group finder queue because i could not answer to accept the invite. May be you could tweak a little more the timer. 1mn is not enough at least for me. I miss it sometimes for 10sec or so.
Now the most problematic and ennoying loading screen problem is on Cyrodill, happening only and only for me when i am in group, into an area for 50+.
i can play a full day long on cyrodill, in a group, when i level a character. But as soon as i am not anymore elligible for the low level area phase, then if i group with my pvp guild, i encounter a load screen
- each time i die : using a camp, or simply a keep not under attack bring me a loading screen. I have then no solution than alt f4. And of course when i log back in i find myself in a queue for cyrodill ......
- travelling from keep to keep while in group : it seems that if we travel all at the same time, the game can not handle it. And we get some loading screens, or even, are booted and have to entered cyrodill .... and guess what .... be in queue to enter again
So to resume, loading screens for me happens only in group in cyrodill, never solo. An actually its quite pushing me away from playing there.
For the event, i fear that i will not enjoy it because of that. Having to spend my time in queue for that area will bring my grumpy mood.Edited by Lauranae on 19 July 2017 09:36My most recent charactersAD - Chjara NB-0
