Gap closing into a loading screen...

The past 2 weeks, I have consistantly entered a loading screen simply by gap closing on someone(mostly NPCs at resources-Happens there 99% of the time)
If it was a short loading screen,I wouldn't really get bothered by it, but instead of that,I go into a short loading screen followed by my character falling under the map-yet taking damage from the NPCs/players that are still hitting my character above the surface,resulting in my death 99% of the time(as I can't do anything about it but stare into the abyss below me)
Usually after I die while falling under the map,I enter another loading screen and then return to normal,kind of-as I am dead-.Not to mention that there are times that the game crashes instead of returning to normal(Although it's somewhat rare)
I would appreciate it if Zenimax could look into the matter,although I don't really have my hopes up:) What do you guys think.

    Honestly this is a l2p issue. Try blocking, rolling or interrupting.. I'm tired of all these nerf requests. Loading screen is a legit skill and if you nerf that then my whole play as I want style is destroyed.

    Umm I can't do anything when I enter a loading screen(I hope you know that),and while I fall under the map I still can't do anything. I get what you're trying to imply though:)

    How many quests have you got in your log btw? An apparent temporary help for recent issues is a smaller quest log

    The reason why people have random loading screens and some don't is based off their computer hardware. If you want to avoid the random loading screens you need to upgrade your Hardware plain and simple. it's not zenimax's fault that you're playing on a potato.

    I will actually try that. Regardless of the outcome,this is an issue that effects PvP dramatically and needs to be looked into in detail.Still,thanks for the tip ^^

    Umm,knowing my PC's specs,that is not true. And the loading screens don't happen to just me,but also to my entire group(I usually play with 2-6 people)And when I get a loading screen-or anyone else- everyone does.
    +They are not random loading screens,they specifically happen during gap closers and mostly to NPCs...

    Altho it might not be fun sometimes, it is the greatest way to die in cyrodil specially when you get to see what happens by falling off the map endlessly.

    Indeed, but as a person that enjoys wiping zergs in towers and strict small scale pvp, I get that bug around once-twice a day, and it's losing its potential to make me laugh day by day.

    I get the issue, and I'm on a 5930K with 32GB of RAM and a Samsung 951 SSD (2gb/s load times). It's not performance related.

    Hmmm. Hopefully Sony will get right on that for me. Or you know, the broken code which results in gap closers patching through this game's already parsed texture boundaries might be at fault. Tough one there.

    It have nothing to do with specs.If that would be just specs problem then You wouldnt fall under map each time after this loading screen.

    I know for sure it happends when player using charge when he have reflecting bubble from guards or when he get it while he is charging. But there is for sure few other ways to get charges bug and fall under map.

    I have no idea why they have such trouble with gap closers. 2h seems safe anything else is a lottery.

    This is something I haven't noticed,but it makes sense!I will try and time my gap closers and also do some testing to let you know if it's truly that.
