Random Loading Screen in Town. Other random bugs.

Okay, so in my time of picking the game up. Have not played it since the late Beta I have noticed a few major annoyances.

First and foremost is random loading screens when trekking through towns such as Daggerfall or Wayrest. Not entering any doors or anything like that I will get a random loading screen with no known reason. Sometimes while running, sometimes in the middle of using a crafting station and sometimes even while standing still and doing nothing. Going through doors and getting one I can understand, but in the general world and play is incredibly annoying.

Now, talking about doors takes me to my first bug issue. When going through quite a few different doors in all kinds of different locations I find myself becoming half stuck in the ground. Usually self fixes with a couple of jumps/crouch or other movements but it is damaging to immersion immensely.

About going into the ground leads us to the next one. The spider world boss near the stairs that take your from Stormhaven to Rivenspire are bugging out and falling into the ground and also running into the actual cliff wall when engaged. I heard in zone chat about others having this problem so it is not an isolated incident.

Next we have a display error that has occurred a few times for myself with display issues for my bow. A couple times my bow itself or the arrows it fires has changed into the square box that I'm assuming displays when there is an issue with the model/texture/other display error. Now the display issue pertaining to the arrows is not limited to just arrows shot but also affected bow skill projectiles as well. Only seemed to have this problem while venturing through Wayrest and a quick relog did not fix the issue.

Last but not least we have a combat ai issue. While fighting some casters in close proximity the will run into me and turn around for no apparent reason (pretty sure it was just caster based mobs, maybe rogues too). It seems as if they were trying to run around me but due to collision and them running right into me they just got stuck there and it seems very dumb on their part. Just seems like some badly written ai issue though.

EDIT: Oh, and on the subject of loading screens, I think there needs to be some better optimizations done. While most entering buildings and such ones are not an issue, I do tend to run into some that last for several minutes, sometimes longer. That is kind of annoying and wasting my time and a major turn off from the game itself.

Well, that is it for my current level of issues with the game since picking it up again a week or so ago.

Good luck in your conquests,
-Valdez

    Hey there @Valdez,

    Thank you very much for providing this feedback, we genuinely appreciate it!

    To start, we have created a support ticket for you in relation to the loading screens that you're running into. Our support department will be able to gather and analyze the necessary information to see why this is occurring, and will be able to offer more in-depth troubleshooting.

    For issues with falling through the ground, we ask that you submit a /bug report as you're falling. This will help our developers find the problem area. Same thing with being through the ground when you exit a door, as well as the AI. AI particularly may be a pathing issue, and an exact location would be super hepful.

    Thanks for your patience! One of our support representatives will be reaching out to you via email soon.

    Hello and thankyou for your time, just to clarify though I have not actually fallen through the ground in general, just going through some doors results in half of him being stuck under the floor. Imagine someone struggling in quicksand lol.

    On another note, according to my notifications it says the maintenance is done. Upon booting up the launcher I am getting the following error:

    Error 209 - PatchManifestError_VersionFail
    Unable to determine current version. Please run the Game Consultant Tool (located under Launcher Settings -> About) and contact customer support.

    My listed Launcher Version is: 1.3.5.964404

    Do I need to post the report?

    Hey there @Valdez,

    If you can, keep a copy of the error message on a Notepad document or something, but we'd advise against posting it here for now. We have a knowledge base article for the 209 error, which you can find here. Give a try to the steps in that article and let us know if it helps!

    Running as an admin worked. Sad that I didn't think to try that earlier lol.
