Why I quit Cyrodiil in frustration last night

c0rp

Multiple times within 3 hours I was unable to open doors. When I was able to open doors I usually had to click "E" SEVERAL times in order to get the damn door to let me in. Several deaths due to unable to open doors.

My combat animations stopped displaying on at least two different occasions. My spells were still firing according to the combat text, but my toon had no animations.

On multiple occasions I died to a Soul Tether which was hitting me for more HP than my toon has total.

On multiple occasions I was perm CC'd by a player and unable to do anything as I was killed.

Multiple times I placed siege equip on the ground and was unable to use it. Thus wasting the AP I used to purchase it.

Within 3 hours of play time, I had 4 crashes to desktop. Three of the crashes were where you "type what you were doing when you crashed and press SEND" crashes. The 4th, and final one was the "ESO has stopped working...windows is looking for a solution....then crash 3 seconds later" crash. That was the last straw.

All the while, I am putting up with this with 20 FPS during keep siege battles on a machine that way more capable of doing so.

Please tell me @zos_MattFiror, @ZosBrainWheeler why I should continue paying a subscription to PvP in ESO. Because at this point, I am just not seeing the positives.

My sub ended yesterday and I finally decided to not resub again (for exactly those reasons you mentioned, and several more). I had a lot of patience with the game in the past (especially during that fps desaster). But patience doesn't last forever. When a game becomes more frustating than enjoying to play, it's time to move on.

However, I do like the game. So I'll keep an eye on it. I really hope ZOS gets this game fixed in the near future.

This topic hit basically all of the issues I am having right now. It is very frustrating and basically makes the game unplayable for me. I can't quit though! Too addicted.

I haven't had the amount of crashes you have but I did have the fps lag on my old rig. Fx 4170 16gb 1600 ram and HD 7870 video card. That setup ran at a whopping 15 frames at keep sieges. New setup i7 4790 16gb 1600 ram r9 290x runs minimum 40 fps(ultra and high on all settings) at keep sieges. All other times 60-90 frames. Might have to do a little with your hardware. Remember minimum requirements will play the game but probably not optimally.

But, but ... we have dies for our armor now... /sarcasm
I feel your pain man. I too was affected by ALL of the above mentioned problems we have been complaining about for weeks if not months. Do the Devs actually play this game and think that all is well?
I don't know how many times I was CC'd to death with no option but to just wait to hit repsawn. Someone in Guild chat said that the perma CC/stun had been fixed, I invite our esteemed Devs to actually login and play and tell me that they cannot be hit with multiple Talons/stunned over and over until ,Click to Respawn.
The times I was able to roll out of Talons it looked like I just dragged it along the ground with me to the next point where I was immediately hit with it again and again.
There should be an immunity timer that actually works to keep players from being caught up in that scenario.
My 6 month sub runs out soon, playing this game now in its current form does not justify me paying ZOS a monthly sub for the current condition of the game.
It is not about the $$$$, it is about me choosing not to spend more $$$ on a game that in its current form is not worth a monthly sub.

... and to top all this!
When you crash it happens that you cannot Login right back into cyrodiil. On Bloodthorn (EU) is a queue > 100 during prime time and you have to wait around 1 hour to get back in the campaign.
No fun if you cannot play the whole evening together with your group because always someone is missing because of crashing and queues!

Not acceptable guys!

The 'E' on the door is also a problem for me but I'm not gunna quit over it I will just go up the stairs and over the wall.
Relogging fixes it (but having to queue again isn't worth it)

I'm encountering most of what you describe. It's extremely frustrating.

I must of sent about 100 crash reports since the 1.3.3 patch went live. Beyond a joke now.

... i think they probably got the message. you can stop sending them now.

here's the workaround for the weapon swap bug / press e bug:

stand up (it seems to happen when you swap while in hide/stealth) and swap back and forth until everything is normal, including the wrong weapon showing if you swap until it's back to normal.

If you're trying to sneak into a keep with enemy around... you're screwed no matter what!

I unsubbed last night. It's not like I don't want to play the game... I just cannot justify paying monthly for something that repeatedly extends it's middle finger toward me.

The incompetence of this company is truly monumental, Keystone cops with floppy shoes run this company.

iv stopped sending crash reports myself. What is there to tell? "I was playing PvP, and it just crashed" is all I can say 95% of the time.

Tintinabula

whats killing me is added to the crashes I get the message that my login info is incorrect when I KNOW it isnt...THEN after typing the same info in 5 times..I get an endless loading screen then FINALLY get a message stating "an error has occured please log in a few minutes". After all this when i DO get in..guess what?..Im not in the keep I was defending..Im not in cyrodiil anymore..Im in cue waiting to get back into Cyrodiil.
