    Big fight, all factions...guess what happened... i was in the fight for a long time, ping went 999+ done.

    I guess being closer to the megaserver helps?

    Laste 4 days in a row, kicked, kicked kicked. Even waited the 20 minutes, kicked.

    I get they are trying to fix the game, but give me the option to go back to PVE or not put me in a busy zone

    OMG! I just got in, went to a place that was about to get attacked.

    Kicked!

    Got in again, they defeated the attacked, still KICKED!!!!

    Does anyone else get this - EVERYDAY you are kicked multiple times???????????????

    Does it have to do with distance from the MegaServers?

    It's not just you. Seems the server just picks a few players and boots them for 2 mins.

    I have a theory that running the game at higher graphics quality settings can lead to connectivity issues, but it's just one of my crazy theories. I'm curious if dropping that setting down a few notches might help alleviate your issues? I keep mine set on Low (one up from Minimum) and generally experience very few connectivity issues-- but then, my computer isn't designed for heavy-duty gaming and its graphics card is just Intel UHD Graphics.

    Interesting @SeaGtGruff your crazy theory may not be that crazy and worth trying.

    I checked my event logs - nothing
    I have 3 different computers I use for gaming, laptop, desktop, steam deck. All suffer the same issue. All at max graphics settings
    When I travel I bring the Steam Deck or Laptop, but ping is much lower in some regions than others (<80ms vs 120ms at home).
    My older desktop ran on a lower resolution (but lower powered gpu) same issue.

    But let's do a test... I will lower it.

    Yesterday, I got kicked 4x in under an hour. The last 1.5 hours of gaming, I stayed on, no getting kicked and there were a few big battles. Settings on the highest.

    Thanks for taking the time to help out!

    You might consider an addon to kind of rein in your pc during high load times: https://www.esoui.com/downloads/info1239-VotansAdaptiveVideo-Settings.html

    I only recently installed it myself but several of my friends swear by it. Hoping it will help out during MYM.

    I can tell when I am the only one moving, and no one else is. Then I get kicked.
    Usually when I try to get back in it is 'Lost connection to lobby' or 'an error occurred please contanct.....'

    It could be an addon-related issue. LibDataShare abuses map pings to share information between group members. It relies on the server, and if you have multiple addons using this library, the server might interpret it as spamming and decide to kick you. Therefore, it’s generally better to disable such addons. This issue will be addressed in U46, as ZOS has developed a new API for this purpose.

    It could also be related to your ISP. You can monitor your internet connection using WinMTR (find instructions online). So far, I have no other ideas; these two possibilities seem the most likely, in my opinion.

    Performance used to be better during Mayhem, but whatever it is they did in the past to achieve that, they aren't doing it anymore today.

    I'll be trying cyrodiil every day during Mayhem until I get kicked, after that I'm switching to a different mmo where currently a similar pvp event is giving me 50ms latency and no disconnects. Yesterday that took 20 minutes. :)
