OK know what to every one who has been posting these rage post about the lag put your self in ZOS shoes and ask your self that question.

How do we fix the lag in cyrodiil ? When literally 100s to 1000s of different players from all over the world come onto the same server doing what they are doing causing more stuff to happen on the server.

Hmm. Maybe they could just REVERT ALL THE TERRIBLE GAME BREAKING PATCHES and bring the game back to where it did actually work.

PvP used to work fine with 3x the population of what we have now. Here are some examples from early 2014.

Giant battles AOE and PFX everywhere. No lag.

Skip to 2m 9s. Just look at those numbers!!! This was before pop caps were reduced. No lag.

More massive battles. No lag.

Pre-emptive argument to hamstring the revisionist history apologists: NO, the performance wasn't better back then because people weren't using aoe, and didn't have max level characters. That argument has no merit. There are plenty of aoe effects, (talons, negate, steel tornado) that you could get very early on and the game didn't lag even in AOE spam. One of the later PvE patches killed PvP. Not aoe. Though having not aoe caps initially probably helped performance too.

Lighting patch ruined this game...but noo the little *** keep tryharding it with implementig efficient lag fixes...purge and rest of aoe things rapids and so on only to group members like that was the cause of it. Go on mates and keep up the good work. Soon prime time will be so *** that everybody will go pve. Best MMO GZ

Troneon

ZOS will never spend the money needed to sort lag out....ever. Look at what they spend most of the time and resources on....1 million dollar marketing campaigns, console launch & marketing, asian markets launch and the crown store...

We will never see the kind of numbers and battles we saw over a year ago, ever.

That "Best MMO" Award was bought and payed for by ZOS. They will milk this cow until it's beyond dry and then call it a day...

NO ETA.

Wtf are you talking about? Do you think Z. tried to do something new and failed? No, they tried to do something that was already done i before and failed.

The lag in Cyrodiil has been going on for almost two years now. If ZOS had any intention of fixing this serious issue they would have by now. It's my opinion they could care less about the Cyrodiil issues and have a mind set that players will just have to put up with it. My reasoning behind the above comment is this:

Ask yourself, How many times have you seen ZOS even respond to the thousands of lag comments and post in the forums?
Then ask yourself how many times have you seen any attempted fixes to any of the Cyrodiil issues in any patch or update.

When I say attempted fixes I am referring to, lag, low fps, 1000 plus ping rates, crashes to desktop, game freezing on non responsiveness, rubber banding and now audio issues. Now some folks will defend and say its the players system that needs to be updated but then I will say, if they are not experiencing the same issues in PvE then its on ZOS's end and always has been. Nuff said..............................................

Holy crap even small scale campaign are laggy.

Uhm , you might like paying for stuff that does not do what it should do , but i personally do not . Now let zos try to put them in the customers shoes . We buy a game , to relax and the oppisite happend . i bought the dlc for my xbox1 i have 270mbs up/and download and yet the lag or fps or whatever it is ,it looks like an old slapstick movie and it makes me head hurt my eyes go crazy and that is every where now . a loading screen while walking thru glenumbra is wrong , so yeeah i tel them . i dont care if the get crumpy because they made mistakes and i wil not compliment them on fixing bugs . . . its there fault it needed fixing in the first place .

Simple! Add a another 7 day campaign. Haderus used to be a great PvP environment because there were other campaigns to join. Essentially, when they made Azura's no CP it removed a campaign because nobody really plays on it. Lag is more noticeable now because everyone is packed into 2 campaigns.

OP is this your first day on these forums ? If not, haven't you noticed a 'fix the lag' thread almost everyday ?

You remind me of Bart Simpsons harrassing Homer "Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme".

Not saying that lag doesn't need a fix, but you guys are not achieveing anything .

Yeah, lets just shut up about it like ZOS wants us too and let them keep *** us! Yeah, lets not complain about this horrible problem that's been going on for a year! Yeah, lets just say *** it to pvp and just let the lag destroy any fun we might have!

notimetocare

Kinda sucks, after TG I never went over 500. LAst few days ive had 2-3 spikes of 800+ at primetime. That being said, we have had vast improvements overall since TG. Ain't something they are going to be able to fix overnight.

Nope, he is quite right, you achieve nothing here. If you wanted to fix the lag, you could try making notes of as much as possible when you get heavy lag and when you get low lag. And the braindead answer of 'people and skills' is just as useless. Want to fix your game, use youre brain not your emotional crying. ZoS is a small team, testing and finding problems takes time and resources.

Holy-Dope

This game is about Casual Players and mostly PVE. PVP just happens to be a part of it and it's not what;s making money for them. It's the New DLCs which are PVE zones and can be sold for MONEY. PVP is a feature i nthe base game and is one time purchase only and you dont even need to sub for it. So trust me, when they say THEY ARE WORKING ON IT MEANS THEY ARE WORKING ON A NEW DLC

You mean aside form the major changes to combat in the last patch to combat zergballs which did reduce lag in major ways, albeit not fully? Your reasoning is highly flawed. You are implying they have no interest in fixing it despite them making changes to try and fix lag. Even if many failed, they are trying and clearly care to some level.

Not having issues in pve does not automatically mean the issue is on their end, slower systems and internet will impact your game. Difference between pve and pvp is the number of players and abilities. Just as their hardware might struggle, so will yours.

I understand you, and many others, are frustrated (I am myself) but you should definitely attempt some critical thinking before spouting off ignorant statements.

Holy-Dope

And in addition as we all know how broken PVP economy has been in last 3 DLCs, it hasn't got any better yet. Everyone is getting almost everything since no more crap is coming through mails, and PVE players dont need any of the stuff from PVP anyway, so it still sucks.

How big is the team? A billion dollar company can stick up for itself it doesn't need forum white knights.

We can ping test, and traceroute all damn day and it wouldn't solve anything. My friends and I live in different parts of the US with the same issue. We all have beasts PCs. If the issue was with Level 3, per say, it would have already been fixed 1.5 years ago. If the issue was with our hardware we would have replaced the problem part already.

Small team...

quote from 2012:

"ZeniMax announced today that it has recieved a $300 million USD investment from Providence Equity Partners Inc for convertible preferred ZeniMax stock. This cash will be used to fund its newly formed online division (headed up by former Mythic Exec Producer Matt Firor) plus develop and publish future games as well."

INB4 they get another Best MMO, DDOS attacks and still have competent staff.

Video posted from 2 years ago. How many add-on's were each player in the video using?

Armitas

So I'm playing bdo ATM and every minute of the game I'm thinking man ESO is sooooo much better in every way but I can't play it because of the lag. I don't think even ZOS realizes just how good ESO is at its core. What I hear from every player that has left is that ESO has soooo muuuch potential! If they can just fix the lag and be serious about pvp they will be sitting on a gold mine. The lag has to be fixed completely because right now IT is shapping the course of development and player behavior rather then the inspiration of the development team or the desires of the players.

:'( RIP functional Cyrodiil

Eshelmen

What they need to do is add more reason for them to care about Cyrodiil(Aka make profit from). Right now as Cyrodiil is, it's literally got no profit involved. Now, how do they change that? They add something of importance to us and something important to them($$$$).

Add gear sets for crowns? No.
Add other things, such as the ability to complete an additional "kill all players quest" per day for like 1000 crowns for the month, or other items to shortcut the experience in Cyrodiil. This would be the only logical way Zeni would give two hoots about fixing the lag.

Or hell, just add a PVP Arena DLC for like 2k crowns and I guarantee they'll boost the pvp performance in no time.

Other than that, why would Zeni spend money in to something that A.Regardless of issues, players still play it and B. have literally no financial reason to ?

We will be closing this discussion as there are many threads on this subject already. This is one of the most widely discussed topics on our forums and is already well circulated.

If you would like to continue this discussion further we would suggest one of the recent threads made in the last few days. Some good threads are currently open in PvP Combat and Skills, here and here in General Discussion, as well as the other PvP forums.
