How do you feel about lag after patch 1.1.3 (NA server)?

arnaldomoraleseb17_ESO · June 2014

Hi, I have created this thread to discuss along the day if you think that the lag got better after patch. Thanks.

I'd tell you but I'm doing the "8 hour work day" quest.

I've never had more than 80ms average latency to the Zenimax hosting facility in the central USA, and I don't live in the USA.

Now, ask me if the "Cannot Swap Weapons Now" bug is gone? No, not it's not.

Ask me if, when I cast abilities and the animation doesn't fire, no damage is done in the combat log, but magicka is consumed? Yes, that's still happening.

Ask me if it's still rather un-fun to solo three mobs at the same time in VR6 content, because my abilities don't fire, and I can't swap weapons? Yes, yes it is.

Woops, off topic, this was about client-server latency..

My question is about 5-10 secs latency to use skills in cyrodil when server reach medium population.

frwinters_ESO · June 2014

Well seeing server latency now to me is moot. I want to wait to see what its like in primetime. and remember some individuals will probably still get lag from there ISP and they will be the first ones on here crying.

lags still there and i have a good connection its a server issue or a game client issue,grouped up in wabba this morning got to the magic number 12 and the sec we got a 13th member 4 people kicked offline and freezing lag,then the stutter lag til people got back online,abilities not working and forget about swapping bars,5-10 sec ability lag still happening,1st time i had seen standing people on mounts in a while and on and on just another failed patch wish my boss was this nice i know i can mess up once in awhile but to repeatedly mess up he has a solution for that.

That's unfortunate. But were you getting lag when ungrouped (near large fights... like sliding/teleport/things not showing up for seconds and not registering skills)?

I'm not sure they were looking to fix the grouping issue as much as the fight latency stuff that makes prime time impossible to play.

Well, sad to know it..... I leave until Zenimax fix the lag. I really like the game but it's pretty unplayable right now.

Teargrants · June 2014

Considering that grouping has been bugged all the way through beta till now I won't expect them to fix it anytime soon. Magic number used to be 22, now it's 12, I guess this is their "way for small groups to combat large groups"? Seems legit.

Jaxom · June 2014

If you are having grouping issues, make sure the people you are inviting are already in Cyrodiil. This doesn't fix the server lag but should fix people getting booted randomly. 100% of the time if someone joins our party and isn't in Cyrodiil yet, people in the group crashes. Every time. Same issues with Trials.

EDIT: Forgot to mention that if you have offline people in your party, it will lag you out as well when in Cyrodiil. We have been booting people out of the party and re-inviting them if they crash. Seems to help.

STILL HAVING MASSIVE ISSUES IN LARGE SCALE SIEGE ACTION

ZOS, you are a never ending fountain of disappointment.

Mends_from_Shadows · June 2014

Yeah....

I'm getting insane lag in both large scale and small scale fights on Wabbajack right now. Weapon swap is basically useless since the lag makes it go off too much so i end up switching back to the weapon I originally wanted to switch from.

The lag is real.

$Infraction$ · June 2014

Still bad.

Almost unplayable still.

Wolfahm · June 2014

This is going to hurt them badly... are they really this *** blind.

Nithrakis · June 2014

It's still really bad.

SilentThunder · June 2014

Don't play on Wabbajack problem solved. They need to look at the physical equipment hosting Wabba. I have never seen the lag they get on Wabba while playing on AB (both NA) even when we get up past med pop, admittedly a rare thing lately.

Worstluck · June 2014

I've been trying all the campaigns lately (Bloodthorn is my home) and honestly, at least at the times I played, Wabbajack is the only option to have some semblance of pvp. The other campaigns are completely dominated by one faction and are nothing but spawn camps. So basically yeah, we can either deal with tons of lag and actually have people to kill, or just don't pvp.

charley222 · June 2014

is a shame they don't refund some playtime
my sub is cancel

Halrloprillalar · June 2014

The best part is figuring out just exactly what spell you cast 10s ago you are actually currently doing

SinfulSoul · June 2014

Today on Wabbajack our whole raid was having 5-8 secs delay on our skills at one point.

The lag is very much still here. The game chokes on big battles (100+ players).

Helspyre · June 2014

Wabbajack was horrid tonight. Was engaging small group fights away from keeps and frequently having 5-15 second skill delay. A couple times this got up to around 30 seconds. A few fights every player in my group totally locked up and couldn't perform any skills until we died.

Atzel · June 2014

2014 , you get what you pay for !
Just as half the food you eat is plastic

Thats why human beings live longer , plastic increases lifespan.
I can't complain , lovin' Mc Donald's!

Sad but true. If you want to actually pvp you gotta choose the most populated campaign which is also unplayable because of the lag.
Zenimax what the hell guys, it's been 2 weeks now and i haven't noticed any of you telling about this crap. Insane lags, massive group crashes when inviting people, uninteractive doors.
Why the hell am i still paying for this bulshit
