Should Zenimax halt all development until they fix cyrodil lag?

No

This poll question demonstrates an acute lack of knowledge of the development process.

That is - pardon me saying so - a stupid question.

First of all tehy just did several fixes to performance and lag. Let's see how it is now for the overall population before we start over acting.

Second (and more importantly) they have more then one computer and more then one developer (team).
Only X people can work on any problem without getting in each others way.
And the Art team, mission designer and theater scene coreograph are not exactly helpfull at finding lags.
The Balance team is also more concerned with (you guessed it) balance.

They are working on the issues as fast as feasible. They are not taking extra long just to annoy you, you know?

Already confirmed by everyone the fixes werent. All we are waiting for is to see what the fixes broke.

Not really, I think that what he meant was that when developers are employed it is for a certain roll, pulling people from design to help fix codes would cause more problems than it would solve.

If you what you mean is should fixing problems be a priority then sure. No point halting people doing their jobs until the fix is implemented though.

What is this "balance team" you speak of?

No

Stupid question and stupid poll. But i voted anyway, I don't know why. Poll addiction?

Because making cash shop vanity pets for the next update is SO important.

ebondeath

No

I don't even have a constructive response, just lol.

thorntk421

No

Yeah, that's it. Stop all development to cater to pvp..ummm No.

Yes

They already due, all nerfs due to.... pvp

drogon1

Yes

I read the pollster more generously: should the devs be devoting the bulk of their resources to ensure that Cyrodiil is playable? I think yes: top priority.

BBSooner

No

I think ZENIMAX should halt all development until all of my, and mine alone, concerns are addressed. Only when they have my express permission should they be allowed to continue to work as a studio.

Ill be waiting, ZOS.

vyndral13preub18_ESO

No

This makes me giggle. Well done.

RoyalPurple

Yes

well there so called fixes to performance are ***. Not one dam thing fixxed. still dropping to 2fps from 60

Evergnar

No

LoL, No. Completely separate teams work on these. One would then just be left to sitting around eating sweetrolls all day.

That statement is based on assumptions.

But say your right, the people designing and making vanity pets don't necessarily know how to fix the problems in cyrodiil. So what does stopping them working on the vanity pets achieve?

The all got those expensive shiny heald tech degrees right?

Cogo

No

At least he stopped asking for the overpowered shield bash back.
Note: lag problems are in Cyro and Graglorn. Serious yes.
The rest of Tamriel seams fine. Some reports from players who experienced lag problems from the lightning upgrade, reporting more problems. Kinda thinking that a local driver/hardware problem.

But taking all their resources who have no clue what a debugging tool is....
They HAVE all resources on this. The team who does balancing for example, wouldn't have to first clue how to search for code/support/platform errors, or what it can be.

This poll/post servers no purpose what so ever. If anyone wants to help, go to cyro, try stuff, post as detailed as you can on the patch thread, and you will serve a purpose.

ferzalrwb17_ESO

Yes

I'm not just saying yes to a halt to get PvP fixed I'm saying "yes" to a stable build for the entire game rather than constant beta-rollouts but that means a "yes" here also.

Your first statement proves you never once read any of my posts. Why? Because of that lie about me wanting shield bash to be op. You as a poster serve no purpose what so ever other than to flame me.

Indeed, it would be silly to specialize in a field once you have a degree after-all.

You have convinced me, pull everyone off development and put them on bug fixing. Hell, take the concept team too....

rwood0604_ESO

No

If they do any halting it should be just to fix Cry lag it should be to fix the whole game then move forward.

No

Yes, I do not read your posts.

This one was an answer to another player.

AlexDougherty

No

The game needs to progress or die. It's that simple.

MrBeatDown

Yes

Game is unplayable like it is. They need to fix this and make it a Number 1 Priority.

Zhoyzu

cyrodiil doesnt lag......

why would they shut down cyrodiil so one person with a sub par machine or a mac doesnt have to experience lag when its the users end and not ZoS.

the only thing im concerned with is whether or not the frame rate drops were fixed. not that they were a big deal in the first place.

You have never been in cyrodil have you?

Surinen

No

may the Lorkhan consume Cyrodiil. such insignificant thing to the lore, exploration and game series as pvp is of no importance to me! insignificant!

there is TES to be made! class erasure, spellcrafting, dyes and much more!

Fairydragon3

No

humm only 2 choices,,,that's what I call a bias poll. a simple yes or no cannot fix this issue. If there was something different they need to be doing you need to propose a plan. rigt now the ois question tells me you want most of the ESO team to stop working while another part is trying to fix things. those people will be sitting on their hands for months wasting Your's and Zenimax media's money.

You know dyes have nothing to do with elder scrolls lore either. Neither did spellcrafting.
