Before you release new content, PLEASE fix the god damn lag in cyrodiil and give us pvp players what you promised when you released your game. Just one simple thing i ask for

Lag is built with players surely? So less players=less lag, although I'm sensing less players wouldn't make you happy either?? lol

Nope
Cyrodiil used to run great with massive fights. Then there was one, fateful patch... never been the same since.

Ugh.

Money keeps this game going, and the salaries of those fixing bugs paid. DLC is a part of how they make money. Without it fixes would never come.

Its really not a simple request at all. Youre asking a business to stop making money to fix things that require money to fix.

As ZOS have said countless times; they are working on fixing the lag in Cyrodiil, but as they can only test it on the live servers they have to implement it gradually over time rather than everything in one swipe to avoid breaking the game.

They know it's a problem. Fixing it is a priority.

• If it was a priority it would have been fixed a year ago.
• If it was a priority, the lighting patch that broke the game would have been reverted.
• Bear mounts were a bigger priority.
• Porting this game to Japan is a bigger priority.

Since craglorn came out, PvP has NEVER been a priority

I honestly think it is a priority for them... I think the problem is they don't know how to fix it. Expecting them to grind progress on the rest of the game to a halt is unrealistic.

Maybe the one million bucks they are giving away could be used somewhere else.... just thinking.

They could have re-hired the "Konk" to finish Spellcrafting, for instance

They know how to fix it. There was a time when the server didn't lag and there were many more people playing as well as the campaign caps being much higher. This is not some computer science mystery. If it worked at one time, and doesn't work now, there are way of figuring these things out.

The problem is that the fixes that we want (revert lighting patch, bring more activities client side, more server resources) have been nixed by upper management or completely off the table due to the Sunk Cost Fallacy.

ZOS purchased middleware for anti-botting and lighting effects. Since ANY change they make effects the WHOLE game, (due to poor coding), they would have to scrap the lighting and botting middleware they paid for just for PvP stability. PvE'ers would complain and it would look horrible in a quarterly review to the company stakeholders (i.e. the real costumers of this game).

So we get crappy performance in cyrodiil because ZOS is unwilling to admit they made mistakes that botched their code. They only people outside of ZOS that knew the truth were the deer in cyrodiil and we all know what happened to them.
