Frequent game freezes

AnduinTryggva · June 2023

Since about two or three weeks I get frequently a freeze when playing in various situations. I have to force close ESO and start again. Anyone experiences the same?

I've been getting freezes too, but they precede me being bumped off the server and having to log back on. Play has generally been jerkier and laggier for me since Necrom too, more than I remember it being after High Isle came out last year.

I am really hoping the next patch fixes these issues.

Yep same here! With or without addons. But, turning down my settings to minimum helped and not alt-tabbing to another program seems to help somewhat. I never experienced freezes during the Necorm PTS cycle. Ever since Necrom launched I've been having issues.

Freezing and being booted is happening frequently for me since Necrom too. Was particularly bad earlier in the week when we had the whole stuck in the never moving queue issue, but even though that thread has been locked as it is supposedly fixed, I have still been booted and can't get back on because of internal errors multiple times a day every day since.

Our help article below has troubleshooting to assist with ESO crashing or freezing.

What do I do if ESO is crashing with the error "ESO has stopped working"?
