    Thank goodness I just picked up a couple cheap games on the Xbox Ultimate Summer Sale.
    Same here, I bought Arkham Knight and all of it's dlc for $25 which is cheaper then the $30 I paid for Orsinium a couple months ago. It's sad that it's still not fixed as not only was it wasted money but I was really enjoying it before the 16GB DB update broke it to the point that I had to request my character be moved out of the Orsinium tavern. My plan was to playthrough Orsinium with my friend then download DB and play that...not gonna waste my money twice on broken stuff.

    If Orsinium and some of the other game breaking bugs aren't fixed by the time the Skyrim remaster comes late October then I'm uninstalling ESO and never looking back.

    @ZOS_JessicaFolsom the issue isn't so much the wayshrining into wrothgar it's the fact that I can't load the characters that are already there! I have 2 stuck in the wrothgar bank and 1 standing right near the writs hand in location and everytime I try to load those characters in I'm dashboarded back to the home screen. I have several friends that can't get their characters out of wrothgar so it's not just me. I've tried everything! Deleting my game same data, hard reset everything and I can't load any characters that are in wrothgar city :(

    Okay, so these were characters that were stuck before today's patch? We can get someone to move your characters and see if that does the trick. May we get the character names, what platform you're on, and what region? (NA or EU)

    Took a character into Orsinium via wayshrine. Made it into the bank, then crashed.

    Since then have sustained I don't know how many crashes. Crashed while standing still and waiting for it to load, crashed while trying to move the heck out of the city, sometimes crashed back to dashboard before getting out of the loading screen, sometimes just plain failed to load the character and went right back to dashboard.

    So...this problem was NOT fixed and I am warning everyone on the XB1 platform to stay the heck out of Orsinium until we have solid assurances that the issue is resolved.

    In the past hour I have made it from the bank almost to the waterwheel. Almost...I am hoping that if I can make it that far it will be stable enough for me to leave that accursed place.

    So...fix the damn crashes. Also, until they are fixed please move the writ turn in to a different location, well away from that city. And maybe give us another bank in Wrothgar that isn't in the city.

    I've been turning in my writs every day, and I only get stuck crashing if I'm stupid enough to go any deeper into the city than the turn-in station. The trick is to Wayshrine into Shatul Wayshrine and ride into the city, being careful to stop and wait if things aren't loading well (which they never are) until it's all rendered. The turn-in station is on the edge of the city, so you can just pop in, turn them in, and ride right back out again as fast as you possibly can.

    I've crashed a few times riding back to Shatul Wayshrine, but only after being out of the city and I've always loaded back in successfully again right after, traveling back out of Wrothgar without further issue. It's just the city that's really the issue, Wrothgar itself is a bit glitchy but the city is by far the worst offender, which is progressively more pronounced the further you get into the city.

    One of the major problems I have observed in busy hubs like Mournhold is all the players standing around shooting off every AoE in the book causing massive lag.

    ZOS should disable AoE in these areas would help a lot.

    Oh wow.

    I wayshrined into Wrothgar this morning. Went and did my writs.

    Even did a little Imperial dance because everything was running so smoothly.

    Swapped between characters several times.

    Ran all over the Gold Coast with no load screens or dashboard crashes.

    I was relieved the game was finally fixed (or at least greatly improved).

    Now I get to work and read this and wonder if I just got lucky, and fear I will be faced with load screens and dashboards again tonight..

    I wonder if this is a conspiracy fron a rival game company who has a major release due out soon.

    Yes im talking sabotage.

    No company could be as bad at this as ZOS right? You just couldnt be this bad on purpose. Could you?

    It must be sabotage in order to make people quit this game for the rival company game. Why would ZOS drive customers away?

    Or there are huge financial hedged bets on ESO being a corproate flop.

    I just cant believe a company can be this inept.

    It seems to me like the player population has increased significantly since DB and TG were released.

    Client side patches aren't going to fix that. My assumption is that the server/network infrastructure at ZOS can't cope with the amount of load it's under at peak times. The lag, crashes, random loading screens and delays whilst npcs load in are all symptoms of the infrastructure not coping with the amount of network traffic. This would explain why no issues were seen during internal testing, as they can't replicate half a million concurrent users.

    If that's the case, we won't get a patch to fix it. ZOS will need to invest in the hardware that can cope with increased bandwidth requirements (servers, switchers, routers, aggregators etc). If this is true, why can't they be honest about it and tell us we'll need to wait for the upgrades to go in?

    Because they won't. I've had it from Microsoft that the whole reason eso plus and crowns don't get delivered to us is because. ....

    They told zos they need to upgrade a few bits to receive payments and information automatically as currently according to them it's a manual import so if there isn't someone there to do it.on your payment / renewal day you'll get access denied. Only when you submit your ticket will they go looking for it.

    This game has no chance. Proper corner cutters.

    The changes made to improve performance have been working on my Xbox.

    I did get kicked out when I first logged in, and was unable to log in without doing a hard reset to the Xbox. So I was very nervous about the update!

    But the game was beautifully smooth for me, although the loading times for NPCs is still very slow, even in unpopulated areas. Plus, my kick from the game when I first logged in was from the Xbox deciding to do an upgrade check, so not ESO at all.

    I am going to run more strenuous stuff tonight, see how it handles the areas I refused to visit since Dark Brotherhood, and see how that goes. As things stand, though, if they could find a way to get the NPCs to load faster and more reliably (it's the game, my Internet is good) I would say it's the best it's ever run, for me.

    I noticed different behavior last night. Xbox NA.
    Prior to the patch I would be dashboarded. After the patch I was in a lot of impromptu load screens but it never crashed.

    I was running the dailes which were Crypt of hearts and tempest.
    Crypt of hearts had 4 different impromptu load screens. One was very long. 3 were very short.
    Tempest island I never saw one load screen.

    Grabing and dropping of the quest is Grahtwood.
    Experienced several load screen getting the quests, but did not crash. One load screen turning them in but no crash. I travelled to the wayshrine north of Grahtwood both times and walked into the city. No mount.

    Still random loading screens and slow loading of NPCs, players and textures everywhere on PS4, EU.. but I've come to just accept it. I'm bored of.. this. I'm bored of keeping up with all of the bugs and lag, I'll just play the game and deal with it. Pointless to complain about it on the forums all of the time.

    Nothing has changed, all the game breaking problems are still there. Loading screens every five steps forward, characters, NPC's and enemies not appearing (but still able to kill you hillariously). Game still runs slow in most areas...
    It is literally impossible to play the main Auridon questline at the moment as you can't do that race in "Wearing the Veil" as you get a loading screen every few seconds. I barely made it half way around before running out of time assuming I wasn't invisi-killed by the imps littered around the track. I'm not even going to attempt Wrothgar...

    Before releasing the next DLC, this seriously needs to be fixed. I've heard of many games being "unplayable" by people that have exaggerated the problems but this is no exaggeration. I've bought all the DLC's thusfar and got many of the extras but I will not be getting the next DLC or any future releases until this is fixed. The game is completely unplayable at the moment. Slight improvements and workarounds aren't good enough, the problems needs to be eradicated completely. What happened with the DB patch? It worked much better before that came out.
