Oh it's definitely aliens! Or maybe cosmic rays!
But memory leaks are a software problem... the hardware doesn't physically leak away into a puddle on the floor

can we make a class action to get compensation for all the keyboards that need replacing from smashing buttons just praying a dang skill fires? maybe sprinkle in some undo trauma or something? I'll do the paperwork
Id like to /s this but seriously, at this point just logging into this game, not even playing the main campaign, is infuriatingly difficult.

I crashed 5 times last night just doing random things. I'm extremely close to ending my sub after like 7 years straight. AoC can't launch soon enough. I know of at least two entire guilds moving over to that.
It's a shame we haven't gotten a word from @ZOS_Kevin or anyone at ZOS for that matter in a very long time.

It *is* difficult for me to blame ZoS though, rather than the innumerable intermediaries between your machines and ZoS.
If the servers themselves were at fault, surely it would affect everyone equally who was logged onto the server, right?

if ZOS even simply told us 'hey, we are really certain that (insert network provider) is actually the cause of issues, our hardware/software/underwear is all fine' id be thrilled. but we have gotten a 'we are looking into it' and then a lack of response, lack of views on submitted videos, lack of anything.
that said, until i moved about a month ago, I had a different ISP than most of the people I ran with (my Spectrum vs their xfinity for most of them). from different parts of the country/world. and experience the same delays, rewinds, teleports etc. I find it hard to believe that a player from US, a player from US closer to the servers, an aussie, and a brit (yes, playing NA instead of EU) would all experience the same delays/rewinds/teleports/crashes if it wasnt the server/something on ZOS end (not my field of expertise). with the lacking responses/replies/anything, sorry, I cannot assume we all just happened to have the same issue around the globe that only affects connectivity to ESO in exactly the same way.
yes, different groups of people seem to get hit at different times. but often these players are from different locales/different ISPs and yet experience the same issues. Not everyone (it seemed to hit ~40% of the pop at a time the last few months), regardless of PVP/PVE/Trials/Dungeons/RP in werewolf land, whatever. whole zones erupt in 'this lag' or 'just crashed' complaints as people log back in.
this past month ish, it has seemed to be *better* in the grand scheme of things (ive changed ISP's and am speaking less on my own behalf at the moment, as much as the observed complaints of others) but there seems to still be ... almost spottyy issues. some days performance seems okay for me and everyone i interact with. other days, its like youre dragging your computer through the mud and trying to hit your keys with a trash can, nothing works as it should (and at this point, 3 months into these issues becoming widespread, most of the regular voices here have thoroughly explored their own hardware/software/underwear issues and double/triple checked that issues arent from our ends. the fact that this thread is about to be 34 pages long and 3 months old and people who previously had no issues are still struggling with performance issues solely with ESO, suggests that there are problems outside our computers/ISP. ZOS could inform us what they know. but they havent.
This was my experience last night. I was looking forward to getting in one last night in Cyrodiil before the event ended and after an hour-and-a-half wait I finally got into greyhost... and it was totally off-putting.Photosniper89 wrote: »What I can't seem to get my head around is the fact I will have 100 FPS, 120 ping, but the game "feels" like I have 5fps and 700 ping.

idk. You ever seen a server room melt to the ground?

Companies this big and in the public space are not going to allow employees, even public reps, to make any kind of announcement, explain any internal issues, or say anything that hasn't been scripted, reviewed, approved, and signed off. If a rep hasn't gotten back by now then they have not been instructed on what to say and so they will say nothing. Doing otherwise would be putting one's job and possibly one's career in the industry at risk.Still happening. Was in a trial on 8/8 around 8:40 pm eastern time. Various members having high ping and skills slow to fire, other computer in the house was working fine. @ZOS_Kevin any idea of when you get to tell us you are "looking into it still" or is ignoring this on-going issue going to continue? I've seen posts of yours in the last few days, so you haven't been fired. What is going on???

I've said it before (months ago, so you may have missed it) that my significant other and I sit in the same room, hardwired to the same internet, and see vastly different pings: sometimes doing different content and sometimes playing together. We've both seen the other just stop in game for a few seconds and their character not do anything while the other was fine. We've had vastly different pings where one gets around 90-100 and the other hits 999 on the in game meter. Or one gets booted from the game for a connection issue while the other has no high ping/lag at all. From what I've seen, this is entirely something in ZOS's server/code/client just not doing what it should be doing.
