Tried to tank VMOL for the guild I play with and I disconnected 3 times. I gave up since I didn't want to waste everyone's time and they had to call in a replacement tank on the spot. What's interesting is that when I was no longer in VMOL and just played other content i.e battlegrounds and dungeons... I did not disconnect for the rest of the time I played (which was 2 more hours).

Yeah sounds about right my avg ping for the last couple of days has been n the 140-200 range when normally it’s in the 80 range.

So how is it going everyone? How has your experience been the last few weeks? Are things getting better... worse.... what?

Weird lag this game regarding lag and animation locking due to jabs.
I'm on a warden subclassed into templar and everytime I jab followed with a light attack, the animation gets stuck midway through the light attack.
Then for the next 20 seconds my toon is running around with one hand frozen in the air. I know skills are still working because the damage numbers are going off.

The second thing is the rubberbanding lag. Everytime I'm in a dungeon I will fire off a skill combo and the game will freeze for about a second and then skip to current time. I will combo Shalks and time it so that it hits when I'm jabbing and the trash mobs will go from full health to dead with nothing in between.

ugh i hate you're still havng issues. You're one of the only people I have heard who has issues porting around and getting hit with the kick. Such a weird bug.

Yep weird indeed! It happens mostly at the character selection screen now for whatever reason. I've started playing again and this bug haunts me!!!

I've been playing the past few days and I gotta say, no lag or skill issues. The only things I have are the pesky "kick to the curb" I get every now and then and the fact I cannot close the game at all now. Nothing works after the last update except using Task Manager and killing the process. We had all of this fixed before this update. Ugh.... Anyway progress right?

hell yeah glad to hear it - minus the selection screen. Guess you should just never change toons

Can't wait to see what U46 does to my PS5 based on these comments lol

UPDATE

I've been MIA for a while in this thread but wanted to chime in for a second and give an update to people/devs about my experience playing ESO.


Recap Last Year:
- Tons of rubber banding
- Disconnects every few minutes
- When I wasn't rubber banding or disconnecting I was having really high ping and overall lag (I was always behind in the group and they would have to wait for me to catch up)
- Issue was replicated on multiple ISPs, 3 different computers with different brands, etc.


This thread started to get a lot of traction about 6 months in. Devs started to reach out to people asking for videos of their experience, we had the off the cuff PTS PVP test, and people gave lots of feedback about their overall experience.

ZoS said during the test they identified some issues that they planned on fixing, some more grace was added into the game for things like "blips" in network connection (reduced the amount of disconnects but increased rubber banding), overall internal tools were reworked to give better metrics, lots of positive things came from this thread.

My issues always remained though. After a near 6 month battle with my ISP tracking the network traffic, looking at backup ISPs, different routes, I had a tech come out for the... 5th time?.. and look at my network. Within 5 minutes he noticed that the fiber coming from the main line into my house had been "pulled, twisted, and ziptied so tight that it broke the fiber inside" which was causing the never ending and seemingly random "blips" in my network. They replaced 400ft of fiber and my network (knock on wood) has been perfect. I've ran with/in ball groups in Cyro and have zero lag, 20+ add-ons running, RDK running.. and it's just a vibe.

Side note - for those that are saying "I thought you said this happened on 3 ISPs.. how did it happen on all 3 if they broke the fiber on only one" - good point. I had DSL for the first one.. which isn't the most reliable so there were "blips". The second was Starlink... which it's sat internet so there will be blips... 3rd was fiber but ended up being broke.. so more blips. Before any of the changes ZoS made if you had a blip for even a second you were absolute toast.

I say that all to say.... sometimes when you're 999% convinced it isn't your setup... it might be something that is buried in the ground 400 ft from your house that is causing the problem. The changes ZoS made are huge for people like me who had "blips" they couldn't explain. It allowed me to still play the game. Yes, rubber banding is a pain but you know what is even more of a pain - getting kicked out of the game every 5-10 minutes and then having to wait in a 80+ person queue for an hour to get back in.... only to get kicked again in 10 minutes so thank you to everyone at ZoS that spent even a minute in this thread and tried to come up with solutions... I truly appreciate your efforts... it made a big impact for me (and probably a lot of people who don't even realize it to be honest

I hope this thread continues to bring positive change to the game and when people have issues they can scroll through this thread (or use AI to scrape it and give suggestions).

I'm not sure how active I'll be on the forums (or this thread) from here on out but if you have any issues playing the game, need help/suggestions on how to test your network to see if it's a "you issue", please feel free to DM me and I will always help in any way I can.

P.S DC is life.

Try this:
If you have lag problems in ESO since a specific windows 11 update (24h2) (especially during loading screens and occasionaly in game), find you processor specs, it's number of cores and number of threads, open your ESO UserSettings.txt file and find these 3 settings:

SET MaxCoresToUse.4
-> here enter the number of cores for your processor multiplied by 3/4 (n*3/4) (round to the higher integer if the result is not an integer)
SET RequestedNumJobThreads
-> here enter the number of threads for your processor multiplied by 2/3 (n*2/3) (round to the higher integer if the result is not an integer)
SET RequestedNumWorkerThreads
-> here enter the number of threads for your processor multiplied by 2/3 (n*2/3) (round to the higher integer if the result is not an integer)

It solved the lag problems for me, don't modify if you have no lag.

What cpu was this?

It's maths to do with YOUR CPU specs.

unfortunately the problems with fps drops ,game stuttering and increased latency have not been solved......

Theres literally hundreds of variables at play here. Without having some more context we can't begin to offer some troubleshooting.

ty but no need any, maybe check all other open threads about the issue? you will get an idea whats going on

i wrote a message about but i wont post it ,cause im trying be polite and find a solution so i can play
without game dropping to 13 FPS and latency 999
my issue is with ZOS and not with you
