I posted in the general discussion thread about my lag in cryodill. I got the Following reply from zos. Not sure if a post has been placed here. but thought I would share.

I cannot be in a group in the cryodill without lag spikes of at least 10 sec every time someone is invited into the group.

Next week's launch of v1.2.3 will include a fix for the lag players are experiencing when grouped.

Here is link to thread.

Theyve said theres lots of fixes for things coming in next patch. More than likely it will create more issues and break more mechanics in gameplay that were working fine. What they say and what they deliver are two different things, one of them doesnt matter at all.

Well, going by what the actual changes were when they said they were fixing Cyrodiil lag (just turned out to be lowering the pop cap), I'm gonna go out on a limb here: lower group cap anyone?

NekOnOkO · June 2014

They cannot fix one thing without breaking two other (sometimes completely unrelated), so their promises actually sound scary.
P.S. Any news on other ~9000 Cyrodiil bugs?

I don't know about anyone else...but i mentioned to my BF this evening i don't experience that really bad stifling lag I used to a few weeks ago.

It's not nearly as prevalent but it's definitely not 'gone'. Baby steps I guess...

But I think in reference to the 'group lag' associated with people offlining, it's absolutely still there. We make sure to kick offlines ASAP or else it's a rave party.

I'll believe it when I see it. They have said the same stuff in previous patch notes, and the situation in Cyrodiil has not become any better at all.

@‌ThyIronFist I had to sign in just to give you an agree, well said!

Lowbei · June 2014

so they are lowering the pop cap again soon in another attempt to fix the lag?

... great

Right...they have been "patching" lag every week and I still cant Bolt Escpae in wabbalag and have my toon actually MOVE FORWARD instantly instead of 10 seconds later.

I am usually pretty optimistic about ZOS fixing the lag, and I never expect it to be lag free, but at least manageable. What usually happens is this. New patch, Cyrodil lags. ZOS acknowledged Lag, fixes, next patch, rinse and repeat. They seem to not be able to keep the lag steady after every patch. And this post is about lag within a group as people seem to get a lot more disconnects when in the large groups. Im not sure this will solve the major lag issues in Cyrodil.

I am just relaying the post. I won't believe it until I see it.

I'm taking the high road. Also known as, the road less traveled. I believe!

scratchnsniff · June 2014

I really want to believe that the issue will be worked out. It is just unplayable at times with the lag every time some joins a group.

To make matters worse, when a leader uses the auto invite add on , people are dropping and joining at will. Good for the group, bad for the lag.
