Console Lag Fix

Please post these instructions in the login screen for consoles so I don't have to keep telling everybody I play with:

While we’re continuing to work on the issues mentioned on the first page of this thread, we do have a temporary workaround we’d like you to try. If you are experiencing random loading screens or invisible monsters/NPCs specifically, please try abandoning one quest at a time until the issue no longer persists. We understand this isn’t ideal, but have found this to help alleviate the problem. A more permanent fix will be included in a future patch, and we’re continuing to work on fixes for the other issues including crashing to the dashboard. Thanks for your continued patience.

I did this last night and it worked very well. Vast improvement in Mournhold, Undaunted Enclave, and vet dungeons after I dumped my quests. Almost no loading screens and very little choppiness with fps and sound.

You could even preface it with some lore!

"Vestige! I need you one last time, again. Molag Bal has created miniature versions of himself (like Kremzeek) called Molag Nano-Bals who have infested our code of Nirn. In order to prevent the Lagmeld from continuing you must follow these insructions from Abnur Tharn before people begin smashing their consoles with a Wabbajack..."

The lag is still there, nothing has been fixed.

My theory was it had something to do with quests, because my new char had zero lag.

Tested and worked for me after I dropped all quests.

The lag is still around here and there for me (and I have finished off all the side and main quests months ago, so abandoning quest one by one is not even an option for me), but the loading screen that hits you like a wall when you trotting about, haven't happen to be me anymore so far this week. It has been smooth sailing (so far) going to and from the DB Sanctuary and in and out of Abah's landing where, as of last week, were the two areas that the loading screens were predominantly occurring for me. Well, elsewhere too, but not as much as these two areas.

I also had issues when I threw out my empowering chain, and I guess it being so fast, I get shot into the air which is quickly followed by a loading screen and all the while I can still hear I am still being attacked. I have since switched skill to the crit rush a couple days ago, but it is also happening here and there when I do the crit rush. It just shoots so fast at my target that I get shot into that loading screen. Ahhh, so annoying.

So, which quests are making the lag worse ?

@terrordactyl1971

I got rid of at least 6 quests (any quests) or so and finished up a few hanging ones and the Mournhold traffic jams I used to get stuck in don't happen to me anymore- I still see people stuck where I used to get the loading screen!
