Mitrenga

Hire the guy who made the flappy bird. It may solve your problems, ZoS.

Just a customer suggestion.

FPS doesn't go back to normal until you relog, even if you're not near a battle

Actually, you don't have to. Leaving Cyrodiil by going to another campaign or a different realm fixes it too, however simple logging is often more practical. Also, I once logged out of 5 fps area just to log back into it and having 10-15 fps so restarting client isn't always a solution unfortunately.

Leaving doesn't always work either I used to do that until I teleported back in to being rolled back then into an infinite loading and also back in with instant fps drop to single digit fps again

Volcanic Rune <-- Culprit. Every time I see it cast on someone close by or myself my FPS goes from a solid 92-130 to 3; also walls and surfaces seem to have high saturation of all colors (everything is white-washed and colorless). I've confirmed this with several others in my guild which is why we've stopped using it.

I can confirm it's an issue as when I see someone cast it in PvE I know I'm going to have restart the game. I don't think it's the heart of the problem though. I think it's just the easiest symptom to see. An instant trigger.

That said, perhaps it's somewhere for them to start with their testing. It's a very reliable gamebuster so it should speed up the process.

Im also finding that ballistas dont cause lag but multiple oilpots seem to cause a problem and when I run by a fire pot trebuchet and all i can hear is the bubbling of a firepot over and over and over...FPS is about to drop

I get the fps drop in pve too and I don't like pve to begin with ... so unless I go back to playing 2048 there isn't much else to do.

Surely anything is better than bashing your head against a wall at 5FPS. I guess you might glitch through the wall you're headbutting after a while and be able to get to the enemy spawn. Is that what everyone's up to?

Well to be fair, relogging 'fixes' it for about 5 mins

Oh good point. I imagine the FPS issue is only a problem when you're involved in any form of combat too. Sounds easy enough to work around. I'll be out there shortly!

naw actually once the FPS tanks badly you are basically screwed regardless of what's happening and it's time to alt F4 again. I wonder if this hotfix was actually just to test their login server

They remind me on EA.
HMmmm i just ask myself "why is that?"

We're continuing to work on the issue causing FPS drops and general game unresponsiveness. We've identified a handful of issues with ability PFX, and a potential memory leak cause. We have fixes we're working on for all of them now. The details some of you have provided have helped. Thank you.

We apologize for the frustration this issue has caused. We want you to know we're still here, and still working on it. We know that an update of "We're still working on it" with very few new details is disappointing, but that is what we can offer right now. We'll continue to provide you updates.

Haha, I have imagined that they would pretend like it was Groundhogs Day! With every rollback they try something new that will hopefully alleviate their problems.

You took a week to apply a hotfix that didn't work, Now THAT is disappointing.

An update is ALL we want right now, well I mean we want it fixed too. But don't abandon us at a critical time like this.

This was a giant step in the right direction in my eyes, and I thank you. My sincerest apologies if I've upset you over the past week.

Thank you for this post.

Any chance these fixes will get implemented before subs are up?

Well according to my guildmates there are substantial improvements. Our home campaing is strongly populated and a lot of battles are ongoing at this moment. (Bloodthorn EU)

Quite a few of us are still in your corner and continual communication like this is appreciated.

Thanks!

We're aiming for Monday for the next patch, but if we are able to push any fixes sooner we will.

Monday? Seriously?

@ZOS_JessicaFolsom -- Due to the lengthy and frustrating delays that have essentially made this game unplayable to the PVP community, how many days of free compensation are your customers going to be receiving?

Notice I am not asking 'If' we're getting any. It's due. All that's worth negotiating is the amount of days (I say at least 14).

like what kind of numbers are we talking about? is it at least double digit fps now?

I feel like I am stating the obvious here, but if ZoS is serious about waiting for a Monday patch without the thought and/or necessary approvals for rolling back asap then common sense is missing at some level of management.

The only other thing I can think of is that they simply hate their customers -or at best take them for granted. I hope there is a diseased part of management that can be removed for the better health of the community and the game as a whole.

While this issue has caused many heartaches and poundings of desks, the lackadaisical response is the most concerning of all.

Are you kidding me, Monday? Another weekend of this absolute garbage? You should be working around the clock fixing this, It's been nearly 2 week lol.

Exactly. If ZOS cannot see fit to give us several days free after this custerfluck...
