✭✭Re-formatted with a few paragraphs for those who are unable to read 'walls of text.'I think we all know what i am talking about, as we all have to deal with the daily lag issues and crashes. No sorry this is now hourly and quarter hourly crashes and lag. This has come to the point where the game cannot be played the way it was meant to be. I am an eso plus member, i also pay for my sons and wife's eso plus membership per month which amounts to around £30 a month as well as our xbox live subscriptions, you get where im coming from.
I could list hundreds of crashes and lag issues that occur every day. I will give you an example of the last hour...
So i log in and load into Deshan, no i have to load in again, no wait i take a step or 2 and yes, i have to load in again, eventually after "this may be an unusually long load time(no a normal load time)i am able to get myself to the undaunted enclave at which point i have counted 15 seconds until i can visibly see either of the undaunted bounty givers to pick up the quests, oh wait another load screen.
I go to the main square to pick up my writs, manage to get through these and use the wayshrine to Wrothgar. Now i purposely, as i know others do, having spoken in guilds, load into a wayshrine out of Orsinium because that place is just a no go zone, you are guaranteed a crash without fail, you are unable to craft there, unable to use vendors and even just going into the city the frame rate drops and the game becomes almost unresponsive. Baring in mind i am paying a monthly subscription to use this content. Whilst i am delivering my writs i decide to put myself in a que for a dungeon, normally if i am a dps character, i can have a wait of around at least an hour sometimes a lot longer(dont get me started on the morons that put themselves as dps\tank\healer with 10 champ points that spoil it for the group). On this occasion the group is disbanded within seconds ( didnt think the group leader could do this anymore?!?) and i now have a 15min penalty which is not my fault at all then probably another hour or 2 wait.
So i decide to go and pick up my daily delve quest and within seconds of starting on my way to do this i have a, you guessed it a game crash, at which point i am now waiting another 5mins to load in, at which point i have just given up trying to play the game tonight as really cannot be bothered anymore with looking at endless load screens and game crashes.
Now before we go any further, i have a degree in networking and am currently working in remote support. I can categorically tell you that all ports regarding not just xbox live but those concerning the ESO ports are all forwarded and my NAT type is open. I currently having just tested a minute ago to see i have an 80meg connection and have extensively tested other multiplayer games to find that they work perfectly without issue, so this has nothing to do with my connection this is purely down to the "supposed" ESO European megaserver.
This has now got to a point where i am starting to begrudge paying my subscription and those of my families. I am aware of the DB update and the issues a new patch can bring in its infancy but this\these are not new issues, they have just got worse.
I think it is disgusting that they are still taking my money with no apology, no mention of any fixes or what they are going to do to resolve these issues, in fact i would go as far as to say they seem to be quite incompetent in what they are trying to achieve with this game and quite frankly i have become very annoyed (as you may well be able to tell) with the total lack of disregard and respect for the loyal paying members of this community.
I love this game and have put many hours into it, i have amassed a wealth of gold and collateral, as well as nearly 600 champ points and 3 characters. But enough is enough, if there is no improvement within the coming weeks, i will put all of my horded goods in the guild bank along with my gold, delete my characters and my account and say goodbye to this shambolic game. Sorry for this rant, but it has been a long time coming and good luck trying to play this very broken game. Peace--ϟ-- Crows_Descend - Templar - Ebonheart Pact [PS4]&[PC] [EU] --ϟ--

✭✭✭✭Acknowledging costs no money, takes no time and does not mean anything else besides "We noticed it too."
ZOS has a track record of not fixing bugs while steadily pushing out new content which introduces more bugs and makes existing bugs worse. The best OP can do is what almost everybody I know has done and that is just stop paying for a subscription.
And really, just be happy ZOS doesn't make cars or something.2 -

I managed to skim enough to get the tired old, "no fixes, no apologies line." You believe this because you want to believe it. You're not getting your way, and it's human nature to believe that people who aren't giving us what we want must be nefarious in some way.
It's false, though. A quick search of these forums would have found plenty of threads on the topic, discussions of the issues involved, statements of their strategy, explanations of why things they've tried haven't worked, and, yes, apologies.
There is simply no argument to be made that they don't care.
Have you talked to support yourself? If you do then you will have to hear them tell you that it is all your fault and nothing they can do about it.1 -

So i log in and load into Deshan, no i have to load in again, no wait i take a step or 2 and yes, i have to load in again, eventually after "this may be an unusually long load time(no a normal load time)i am able to get myself to the undaunted enclave at which point i have counted 15 seconds until i can visibly see either of the undaunted bounty givers to pick up the quests, oh wait another load screen. I go to the main square to pick up my writs, manage to get through these and use the wayshrine to Wrothgar.
Now i purposely, as i know others do, having spoken in guilds, load into a wayshrine out of Orsinium because that place is just a no go zone, you are guaranteed a crash without fail, you are unable to craft there, unable to use vendors and even just going into the city the frame rate drops and the game becomes almost unresponsive. Baring in mind i am paying a monthly subscription to use this content.
Whilst i am delivering my writs i decide to put myself in a que for a dungeon, normally if i am a dps character, i can have a wait of around at least an hour sometimes a lot longer(dont get me started on the morons that put themselves as dps\tank\healer with 10 champ points that spoil it for the group). On this occasion the group is disbanded within seconds ( didnt think the group leader could do this anymore?!?) and i now have a 15min penalty which is not my fault at all then probably another hour or 2 wait.
So i decide to go and pick up my daily delve quest and within seconds of starting on my way to do this i have a, you guessed it a game crash, at which point i am now waiting another 5mins to load in, at which point i have just given up trying to play the game tonight as i really cannot be bothered anymore with looking at endless load screens and game crashes.
Now before we go any further, i have a degree in networking and am currently working in remote support. I can categorically tell you that all ports regarding not just xbox live but those concerning the ESO ports are all forwarded and my NAT type is open.
I currently having just tested a minute ago to see i have an 80meg connection and have extensively tested other multiplayer games to find that they work perfectly without issue, so this has nothing to do with my connection this is purely down to the "supposed" ESO European megaserver.
This has now got to a point where i am starting to begrudge paying my subscription and those of my families. I am aware of the DB update and the issues a new patch can bring in its infancy but this\these are not new issues, they have just got worse. I think it is disgusting that they are still taking my money with no apology, no mention of any fixes or what they are going to do to resolve these issues, in fact i would go as far as to say they seem to be quite incompetent in what they are trying to achieve with this game and quite frankly i have become very annoyed (as you may well be able to tell) with the total lack of disregard and respect for the loyal paying members of this community.
I love this game and have put many hours into it, i have amassed a wealth of gold and collateral, as well as nearly 600 champ points and 3 characters. But enough is enough, if there is no improvement within the coming weeks, i will put all of my horded goods in the guild bank along with my gold, delete my characters and my account and say goodbye to this shambolic game. Sorry for this rant, but it has been a long time coming and good luck trying to play this very broken game. Peace
EDIT: Sorry for the lack of sentences, i really didn't think people would be that offended by a lack of these and my grammar and would be more interested in the content. Point taken and revised.
This was not something that could be written in a few lines and something i really wanted to write. It is solely my opinion and what forums are for.
N'aww, bless ya I think the responses to the "Wall" were light hearted but it's definitely easier to absorb the information now A lot of people are on your side, don't worry. I think we do need more communication about fixing the issue. How close they are, what caused it, when we can see a patch etc. Definitely would alleviate some tension.

I think they basically put the game out on to many levels that they dont even have enough staff hired to deal with the issues they create themselves. I believe it is a $$ mentality on there part so they tend to run towards the $$ like any company without getting the help or resources needed to fix the issues that are arising with-in the game on a daily basis.cosmic_niklas_93b16_ESO wrote: »Well, the game has been dying for a while now, ZoS is just busy milking all the naive people actually paying them for the mess of a game we got these days until they shut the servers down.
well if they shut the servers down alot of ppl that supported them with there $$ and Time would be pissed more so then they are now with the bugs lol!
Game isn't dieing by the way so don't listen to people that say it is because it's only an opinion. Stats and current populace speak for itself.
7 million and rising. Also it's not a contest with other MMOs, it's the simple fact people do actually play the game and more join everyday that states it is not dieing.
Question is, are more people leaving than are coming in? As I know a lot of people that quit the game when DB came out and if they're going to lose big chunks of their community with every *** decision they do then there won't be a game around much longer.
My honest opinion? Probably equal parts coming and going. But that's including those that play it a bit, decide it doesn't amuse them, and leave shortly after joining.Edited by UltimaJoe777 on June 21, 2016 9:52PMGuildmaster of Power With Numbers in PS4 NA Server's Aldmeri Dominion.

Most people I know that left are just fed up with the complete incompetence of ZoS that have made the game worse than it was at launch 2 years ago. But that's what we get when they completely ignore the community......R.I.P. Daranth Spellborn

Yeah but only a handful of the playerbase actually keep tabs on what Zenimax does, is doing, and will do. The rest just play the game blindly
