And do you think we will be compensated for our HOURS of lost gaming time in any way, shape or form?

No you wont get any compensation. I remember when pvp was really unplayable with framerates of 5-10. I think it was a Bit After craglorn update on PC, i asked a few times for a compensation, they just told me to do something else like fishing, lol. That was the moment i quit on PC.

Its not that bad on ps4 now, but smooth gameplay looks not like this mess we experience.

I unsubbed for now.

Am I the only one who seems to have had a better experience in cyrodil after the DB patch? I played in scourge while all 3 alliances were pop-locked and only got the bad frame drops and latency near zergs or when entering keeps. I actually homed scourge because all 3 alliances have rarely reached pop lock at once even during prime time the past few weeks.

I do notice that their is an unusual amount of lag, low frames, and tons of loading screens in any major citys like deshaan, the rift, even shadowfen had lag. I had to move my bank alts (mules) to windhelm just to reliably log in to them as needed.

Actually am with you I play Scourge just about everyday and since the update I barely noticed the game lagged but in PVE the worst part of ESO in my honest opinion I can't go two steps without a load screen or a discount. I will admit am getting long load screen every 2-3 hours in Scourge which prompts a relog but am usually fine after that.This just makes me want to live in PVP even more so i don't have to deal with this non sense.

WhoThenNow7

I don't ever have any apps up and it still crashes like crazy.. I don't know how they can even fathom the idea of "one tamriel" with issues that keep occuring like this.

PurifedBladez

What I'm trying to figure out is how could they release something so broken.

Last night my group must of had 10 disconnects in an hour in cyrodil and that's like 3 or 4 people give or take. On the last one I just got off for the night.

Either way this patch is a buggy mess and it has a lot of problems that need to get looked at.

I misread the note at the top of the page and thought Xbox issues had been resolved so I just tried once again to free my crafter from Elden Root wayshrine prison and once again got kicked back to the dashboard. As she is the only character affected things are in the plus column in general but my crafter is the only one I have who knows at least 5 traits in all light armor so I need her. If Zos would transfer her research to one of my other characters then I would abandon poor Scura di Notte to be the night shadow she is named after. Otherwise, please free my Altmer from wayshrine prison .

I seem to have lost my main. I was finishing the main Wrothgar questline on him (delivering invitations) when I crashed to dashboard, and now I crash during the loading screen each time I try to log into the character...

@ZOS_JessicaFolsom
It needs to be fixed especially with PvP seriously it's awful. I keep getting kicked to dashboard or kicked from the game citing my connection is bad when it's not. The best part is it's pretty much piling on the horrible performance Cryrodiil is in/has remained to be since the bot netcode patch couple years ago;I think we all remember that faithful day when things took a complete 180.

Please this needs to be fixed ASAP, I've been ruined from Emperor 3 times because of it DCing me n 10 of my allies while a zerg mashes there way through (by zerg I mean Zerg Pact the worse alliance in the game who can only zerg).

KingWhyteboi

At this point in time i wish they never came out with another dlc. All they do is ruin the game each patch more and more just make 10 more mounts a month and make your money that way jesus fix this broken pos

For starters if you have a character in a major hub city you might as well forget about logging into it. If your lucky enough to not get instantly kicked to dashboard, take about 10 steps. You might, and it's a big might, be able to collect your vet pledge in the early morning NA hours.

So when you get the undaunted vet pledge, be prepared for random long load screens inside the dungeons. It must be something new ZOS is trying. When your about ready to give up, you will come out of it and advance into a mob of invisible monsters. No worries, if you throw caltrops down you can attack the damage numbers that pop up.

If your a guild leader, new challenges await. Deposit history list is blank. Makes it so much easier to keep track of who is paying rent for the guild trader. Best of all, if you need to go through your entire roster to promote/demote you'll be bumped to the top of your screen. It's been like that since orsinium, but much worse now even if you narrow your field

The most unbearable out of all of these is the constant crashes to dashboard. When you spend an hour a day just on re-logs, it makes you wonder if it's worth it.

The final rant goes back to random loading screens in the Gold Coast. Is this normal traveling around the world to have several?

I know I need to learn to play, and thank you for welcoming me to mmos, and yes someday I'll join the master race of pc, perhaps I probably also need to learn to read and learn to search threads lol.

Thank you for your feedback, @johu31. The crashes to dashboard, long loading screens, and general increase in performance issues we're seeing reports of since the Dark Brotherhood launch on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 earlier this week are a priority and something we're working to resolve as soon as possible. What you and others are experiencing is not the norm, and we apologize for the frustration. For some players, closing all apps has helped, but we're working on a more permanent solution.

Please let us know when the fix is coming. I don't like having to go so slow in fear of forced loading screens.

Archmage1

Agreed. Worst experience in an MMO I've ever had and I've been playing for over 2 decades.

neville_bart0s

just popping by to let yall know your game is still broken as ***. lag, constant load screens, low FPS, unplayable PVP, maelstrom bugs, the list goes on

every major update breaks the game so stop *** doing major updates until you fix the core game.

Archmage1

Fix your game before adding new content. How hard is this concept? Stop thinking about the $$$ only and think about your loyal player base.

I'll take PSN over what Xbox has anyday. More user-friendly. Also Xbox has a rep for being less stable in general.

Not really they still won't allow you to change your names and communities don't even work half the time.More user friendly right .Hey personally I haven't had a issue with my Xbox but know many people with issue on their PS4.

johu31

Just to be clear we had two separate issues. A
6-7 hour limited outage from Microsoft which has been resolved.

Most of the other issues here besides the "internal error unable to log" are still ongoing.

Archmage1

Still ongoing and needs to be rectified quickly. I for one will formally request a refund for my ESO+ membership of I am unable to play much longer.

As an Xbox player I don't know much about the network but I do know that they got a handful of new exclusives that are making me wish I bought the PS4 instead of the Xbox One. God of War 4, Horizon Zero Dawn and No Mans Sky are all looking good...Xbox needs to step it up.

Try logging on early in the morning, like 6am eastern. Or earlier. It worked for me. I had been crashing before I could move or fast travel anywhere... I got on early and held 'run' as the screen appeared, and just ran for the first exit I saw. Almost made it out before a crash, but the next attempt began with me that much closer to the door, and I managed to escape the tree before crash. Next log in began me outside the tree, and I made more distance before another crash.

Keep at it. It's like burning soul gems to dead-walk past all the mobs 30 levels above you.

Is this the same priority you are having for all of the known PC bugs and issues that also effect consoles that were not fixed from PC launch to console launch and are still not being fixed asap? There are fundamental issues with in-game mechanics and the response seems to be 'we're looking into this and the results 'may' come in 3 months time'. We want to help you fix this game so much but it's like drawing blood from a stone at times.

Happens in NA PC ZO$ has some really crap servers. Its not as it was when TG released but holy hell AD grathwood is sooooo laggy during prime time.

Been trying for 40 min to try and get a character out of there. I feel sorry for someone who only has one, which would mean they can't play at all. I guess we will have to park our characters in random low traffic areas before the next dlc.

I got the best response from support.

Hello,
To help resolve an issue where you are crashing to your Dashboard, please do the following:
1. Turn on Xbox
2. Disconnect it from the Internet
3. Clear your Save Data (instructions below)
4. Open ESOTU and Press A and see if the issue persists.
If it does, proceed to the following:
1. Reconnect your Console to the Internet
2. Restart your Console
3. Clear the game entirely off your Xbox - Including Cloud Save (use the Delete Everywhere option)
4. Reinstall Game

So apparently someone doesn't know the meaning of "online" lol

*** reinstalling near 90GBs. That's nearly a whole day wasted.

I know right. But what I wana know is why they would think it would work offline lol

I admit I have noticed it get better but the dashboarding is worse and so are the gap closers

I said something along these lines not to long ago and, took a lot if heat for it lol. Glad everyone gets it now.

PrinceBoru

ESO on XB1 is just brutal.
Crashing in Deshaan begins a Bermuda Triangle-like loop of attempting to re-log.
The list of zones to avoid grows.

Stashfu

Probably the worst gaming experience I've had in a decade. Game crashes to the dashboard every 1/2 hour or so. Random freezes, rubber-banding, load screens out of nowhere, textures failing to load, etc. And now the dungeon finder appears not to work? It was rough prior to DB, but a whole new level of awful now.

Thing is though, running around silver and gold zones doing delves and such still works pretty well. Its only Wrothgar/Cyrodil/Undaunted/DB where the problems are acute (at least for me).

Shame to sink so much time into leveling in an mmo only to find out endgame and pvp isn't functional.

Oh and I tried the power cycle suggestion. Made absolutely zero difference.
