Anyone finding dead areas that doesn't recognize the space bar while moving. I see it happen quite a bit and wonder what is causing this? Most of the time it's near an edge when needing to jump to get to the other side of a drop but also happens elsewhere. I do know of one spot It happens fairly regularly and sent screenshot to the man...

    It's not really about one particular spot, it's just that jumping in ESO is useless and you will hit a wall on any small land feature because if you're standing still, you can only jump upwards, so you'll need to step back and try again. Even so, a small wall often is hard to jump over.
    I wish the jump in ESO was redesigned to be more useful, flexible and less frustrating

    not what the OP is talking about no, but try this: stand still in front of a little wall or something, where you cant walk over, and then try jumping over it...

    I jump over little walls all the time but one have to use two keys -- direction and the jump button.

    Jumping could be more lenient, so to speak. You have to be standing in almost perfect 90 degree angles to actually scale anything.

    Also remember that the game doesn't register your actions until you let go of the buttons.

    Must be some vagaries built into the system.
    Mine jumps on initial button press.

    But that whole:
    • Being too close and jumping straight up
    • Being a step back, and jumping 7 feet passed where you wanted to land
    • Needing to jump to the next object, and it's either 7 inches tall and can't be jumped, or you get swatted to one side or the other as if by design
    will make me try several times until I get fed up with the petty cowcrap and go do something else with my day that doesn't involve ESO.

    I'm getting less patient with stuff that's just stupid and frustrating rather than challenging.

    The problem with society these days is that no one drinks from the skulls of their enemies anymore.

    He. Be glad the quest in Coldharbor which was bugged and had you jumping, turning, and hitting a specific mark in mid air all at once is fixed. That was real fun... being Laura Croft in Tamriel... not! o.O
