I've been having A LOT of trouble with the on screen keyboard

Infinite12 · September 2016

The keyboard is SUPER laggy all the time. I have to hit the xbox button on my controller and then press A on the already running game to get the keyboard to work properly and that only helps sometime. It only seems to happen while playing this game.

Nothing? No one else having problems?

It's when you start with a capital letter. Start typing with lower case and you won't have a problem

I use a wireless key board and have no issues.

I've been having an issue where when you click the text box the keynoard won't even pop up but it recognizes the keyboard being open it's weird have to shut the game down and re launch to fix it

Try using the xbox glass ap? It's laggy too but I can make it work slightly better and faster

I get the same issue. I haven't tired not starting with a capital, but essentially I go to write in area chat(OR any chat) and as soon as I start to type the keyboard freezes. I can fix this by pressing the home button, which makes it lag for a second before brining me to the xbox dash board. Then I can go back into the game but If I try to type it happens again.

Another issue I have is it will randomly fail to bring up the keyboard. I can't do much about this problem.

Using the xbox phone app can help with the keyboard freezing, but man is that app clumsy, slow and poorly designed.

My keyboard freezes open but won't let me even move the cursor, forcing me to reboot the Xbox.

It does not seem to like the game at all.

What keyboards are you all using.

I ask cause the chatpad Xbox brand doesn't have any of these issues.

SolarCat02 · October 2016

The in-game keyboard.
The one where you use the d-pad keys on the controller to navigate.

What SolarCat02 said. It's laggy as all he'll and I have to hit my xbox button on my controller to take me out of game back to the home screen for Xbox then select eso to go back in, I have to do this multiple times to get my keyboard working normally again.

Yeah I use the chat pad as well and although I haven't played in a while I never had any issues.

I shouldn't have to buy a chatpad because they can't make an on screen keyboard work properly. If I'm trying to type something into game chat it's a nightmare. But if I have to go to the dashboard to send a message to someone on my friends list the keyboard works as smooth as butter. It's only when I'm in game that the keyboard gets all stupid

Well "they" didn't make the on screen keyboard it's required by Xbox. You don't have to buy a keyboard, just use voice chat or use smartglass or a PC Xbox app

Nevermind!

Well "THEY" screwed something up becuse I can use the on screen keyboard outside of eso and in any other game and it works perfectly fine
