Everything is broken.

svartorn

Tried to pvp and half the raid had bugged health bars. Started to fight and the audio cut out. Gap closers still broken. Finally almost took a keep and while I was healing the game started teleporting me 100 yards at a time in different directions for no reason, so I leave Cyrodiil. Try to queue up for pledges with the group finder tool and the game crashes when the group forms... sign back in and now I have a 15 minute wait to even attempt it again.

But them cat mount reskins tho. #priorities

Keep dreaming buddy. The update is most likely already at Sony and MS for verification process. But don't fret, you might get some fixes 2 incremental updates down the line somewhere, so it's not all bad.

Showing my age, first thing I thought of when saw the title was the Bob Dylan song

"Everything Is Broken"

Broken lines broken strings
Broken threads broken springs
Broken idols broken heads
People sleeping in broken beds
Ain't no use jiving
Ain't no use joking
Everything is broken.

Broken bottles broken plates
Broken switches broken gates
Broken dishes broken parts
Streets are filled with broken hearts
Broken words never meant to be spoken
Everything is broken.

Seem like every time you stop and turn around
Something else just hit the ground
Broken cutters broken saws
Broken buckles broken laws
Broken bodies broken bones
Broken voices on broken phones
Take a deep breath feel like you're chokin'
Everything is broken.

Everytime you leave and go off someplace
Things fall to pieces in my face
Broken hands on broken ploughs
Broken treaties broken vows
Broken pipes broken tools
People bending broken rules
Hound dog howling bullfrog croaking
Everything is broken.


Back on topic, other than the group finder, all seems ok here bar the drops to sub 25 FPS when in large towns. I'm putting that down to these being busier than normal due to people starting new characters.

Its mind blowing that they cant even get gap closers to work. It is one of the more prominent abilities in every single MMO, its a simple Charge. I have never ever played a MMO where it didnt work and i almost always play Tanks. Its been broken for months and they cant fix it? Sorry but if my staff couldnt fix something like that then they are simply too incompetent for the position and i would find a somebody who was more qualified. I know that is harsh but if your current staff cant even make a Charge work correctly then why are they working on a AAA MMO?

TBH...PVP and skills/combat is COMPLETELY broken with this update. And the lag is worst than TG patch.

This is just incredible. But its true.

yeah but by then they already know of the issues and put in an incremental patch fixing them much sooner to us since we would have been playing it much less time @Alcast @Egonieser

So thanks for being the beta tester on the live servers

uhh... no.

just, no.

Running mostly in Wrothgar, Hews, and Gold Coast with 8 characters.
Respeced and regeared 6 of 8.
Ran some down to Riften, Stormhaven and others grabbing chests.
Started two new now down in the entry islands for DC and AD.
Most everything works.
Many things really really good with recent improvements.
Well over 12 hours of play since patch and not one single crash.

Everything is definitely not broken. Statement is at best most generous hyperbole or a use of "everything" in the context of a very small portion of play content.

YMMV

Then...should be that 90% of people in this forum and chat zones wants just to say the game is broken and do not play while paying cause we live in another dimension.

Go cyro and test for example.

- Sometimes when I critical rush someone I will go flying in the air.
-
- I was walking up the stares in a resource tower, the next I know I was hugging some wall on in the far corner of the tower. Thought I was stuck because it was almost looked like I was in the wall.

- I'm not sure if it is Critical Rush or WB but wen I goto excute the skill my character goes into an epileptic seizure and does not execute the skill. This is now happening when I try and use my ultimate, i push the button and my character just starts shaking.

Cyro represent a small percentage of the game and playerbase. Equating that to "everything is broken" is hyperbole.

I have had some very noticable frame rate drops in populated cities, but out questing everything has been fine. The group finder doesn't work at all right now (at least I haven't been able to get it to pop when queuing solo as a healer, even after waiting over an hour. However the group finder works fine if you form the group before queuing.

I'd say the game is in pretty good working condition overall. So don't say 90% of people are complaining. You're probably in the minority. Most people are playing the game instead of posting here.

Why am I posting here? I'm at work and can't play.

To be fair, WoW had some problems with charge early on too.

Was wondering how the changes would work or not work on Live..... now I know LOL.

I haven't had time to check out the changes yet on LIve because of playing an actual MMO that works and isn't bugged all the time. Guess I will just stay away from ESO for a few weeks.

The game is not "new" by any stretch of the imagination. Besides, the gapclosers actually worked just fine, if even too well at first, as in pulling people off walls, teleport-jumping up there etc it's what they SHOULD do. Apart from main base safezone, nobody should be safe anywhere, especially on keep walls and similar - if it's a problem - move out of range, as ranged skills still have much longer range than any gapcloser.
In any other game that is usually considered part of the strategy, but in ESO they are so adamant it's exploiting so they started to mess around with it to the point it's now unfixable.

I actually want the old gapcloser back, it was fun as heck and made people think where they positioned themselves, unlike now "meh, I'm safe because I stand at a 45° angle higher, his gapclosers or chains won't work, now let's rain fire down on them."

SahrotRein

I don't want to start a thread of my own to force my stuff on other people but the game has been broken down since DB update. Might just wait a few weeks once things get sorted out. My beloved IC feels completely changed and there are many things that have been changed drastically and ruined.

Come to think of it, it is actually a pretty bad thing when there are so many issues with the game even after testing on PTS - this shouldn't actually happen, we just got used to it.
ZOS, just take your time with the update, test it for longer and don't rush it into LIVE.

Players like you enable ZOS to get away with pushing out a broken patch. You are the 'cat mount' population that will run around doing quests for 2 hours, buying new mounts, and not really knowing enough about the game mechanics to even know something is wrong, or you are so new to the game that you can't understand why people get so frustrated at ZOS because you've missed out on the 2+ years of poor management and bonkers decision-making.

Gap closers are a basic feature of modern mmo''s like this, including ESO. This is hardly a pvp only issue, and no competent manager would have made the decision to push this garbage patch to Live until the most obvious game-breaking bugs were fixed. But because of our cat mount friends, these terribad decisions are thought of as no-big-deal at ZOS because they'll rake in the cash from the 12th iteration of a $40 cat mount from players that willfully choose to never hold them accountable for shoddy code, terrible communication, and atrocious management practices.

They're in the midst of a terrible cheating crisis that they've known about and allowed since BETA. I'd call that pretty much broken dude.

ZOS deserves the heft of the blame, but players like yourself are a big part of the problem.

We've said this for over a year. The current team needs to be demoted or let go. Then this game would see some positive changes. But its most likely too late now.

Yeah, during vanilla maybe, we're into BC territory now and looking down the barrel of WOTLK - you gonna try to say that at that point in wows life-cycle they'd still be having the same issues? :P
