ZoS, really bad problems in PvP (graphics glitches, client crashes, and 0 FPS)

onlinegamer1

Last night, I encountered all the following major problems in PvP:

FPS
- the 0 FPS issue is back in large battles. It does get better all by itself if you move away, but after 1.2.x, FPS only dropped to the teens/low 20s in large battles, but today, after 1.3.3, it drops all the way to 0/1 FPS.

Client Crashes
- never had client outright crash in PvP before (again, in large battles), but as of 1.3.3, it crashed on me at least 5 times.

Graphics Glitch
- giant patches of.... black nothingness (failure to draw the terrain, whatever you want to call it) plagued me all night. It happened in different spots (inside keeps, in overland terrain, etc.) and happened regardless of battle (happened both in battles and when I was all alone in the middle of nowhere)

Please fix these asap. PvP is nearly unplayable atm.

you get these in PVE, when alone and not fighting. So don't worry about PVP.

This is an ESO wide feature

have no fps issue (just a little bit drop after this patch), but have the same issue on game crash in PvP (did't have this issue in 1.2)

That makes it even higher priority to fix.

ZoS?

How do you get those @ names to appear in comments?

Hello @onlinegamer1‌, this info might help.

You start with the @ and then immediately type the first few letters of the forum account name. A list of options will appear. Most people only know a few of the names of the ZOS staff who help moderate the forums, such as ZOS_GinaBruno, ZOS_JessicaFolsom‌, and ZOS_HugoP‌, so those names get repeated a lot. Try typing @ZOS_ and then the first letters of one of those names and it will appear as a suggestion highlighted in blue. Hit the enter key to select.

I've had similar experiences with very frequent world freezes/unknown error crashing for several days whenever I get near a PvP battle and I've had to run the game on mininum graphics for places like Cyrodiil for weeks because of things like the fps issue. FYI I am trying to get some of these exact experiences collected together in one place if anyone would care to help out.

(Edited to correct some weird error with my link.)

After about 3-4 hours of PvP in 1.3.3 I had 3 crashes to desktop, where the client prompted me to submit a crash report. Had those prior to patch as well, not nearly as often "only" 2 times a day in average. This is also what sent me to the forums, so I can confirm OPs experiences.

Yes, I can confirm as that aspect of things well. These sudden crashes with error reports started becoming more common with 1.3.3, and for some this is on top of other sources for/causes of frequent crashing.
