fix the damn lag allready

jircris11

Making ANOTHER lag post despite the others on here. reason behind it is apparently ZoS does not give a rats butt about it. i do not pay 15 a month to NOT be able to play a game due to LAG. i do not mind the down time but come on..this is just sad. hell when i was a game dev this would NOT slide, we would be given a time frame to fix it or we got in trouble.

When were you a game dev?
For what company?
What role did you have specifically?

be honest with yourself- do you really believe lag is ever going away?

Ncsoft, tabula rasa, before that it was coh/X merger in to f2p before it's end. Also did some temp work as a GM for Wow pre work.
So that is the most recent stuff, not including my personal projects.

And no the lag will always be here but it's gotten much worse

I don't know how it is for the other platforms - but on ps4 when we "blue screen" and get kicked off the server we used to be able to log right back into cyro (the only concern then would be whether or not your character got killed during the process)...

now we get kicked to somewhere in 1T and because pop caps are so low (maybe around 200) we end up waiting in a queue for 10 minutes to get back in...

You people can complain about the unplayable lag and incompetence of the developers all you want we all know they don't care, and that you still aren't going anywhere.

I tried to play maelstrom tonight, but the PVE lag/latency is still terrible. It was like this last night too (Tuesday), and I thought that this was supposed to have been fixed by the patch this morning (Wednesday). My weapon swaps take like a full second to perform, my skills fire half a second late, and skills frequently don't register at all as if they're missed. I have reset my router, all internet connectivity devices, and the issue remains. I've played this game for over two and a half years and normally have no latency problems in PVE at all.

This game is currently in an unplayable state for me. Please acknowledge that you are aware of the issue. I will monitor the forums the next couple days and wait for news about the resolution of this issue. In the meantime, I have no choice except to find something else to play that's not so infuriating/frustrating to play. Please consider rolling back to the patch before this issue arose until it gets completely investigated and fixed.

Thanks,

@ckbud

Lol. Lost the qualification arguement with the OP, and now it's 'they dont care'.

They obviously do as it impacts their ability to sell this game directly. But quite frankly I think it's going to need a gigantic hardware shift that they may not be willing to do.

What arguement? I asked him a question, he gave an answer (mostly) doesn't sound like an arguement to me.

Also tell me again about how much ZOS cares when they can't be bothered communicating to us about what's going on.

The one night I get to play for 5 hours and it's laggy as hell....

Two new dungeons in the next release. First one is the dungeon of the eternal blue screen, can find the entrance on any breach in Cyrodil. Second one is Molag Bals time machine where every move takes 5 minutes to make and you are probably dead 10 minutes before you know it. This particular dungeon can be usually found at the tops of stairs in keeps.

Same issue here, but it only happens in Cyrodiil. It happens mostly when using a gap closer on a NPC.

Running into loading screens is also an issue which seem to happen more often lately.

Hahahaha completely agree ... OP mentioned he was/is a game dev and this guy demanded his credentials straight away in total disbelief that anyone could be a game dev. Then sides with him immediately when slapped with OP's passed work experience hahaha. I found this hilarious hahahahahaha

You're right you don't pay 15/month to not be able to play. You pay 15/month to fund the people the people that develop content and work on the servers when things like this happen. I work for a Terminal Server company and at times it can takes us months to figure exactly why one server on a Virtual is lagging more than another.

It's never just a simple answer. You think this is taking way to long just think what it would be like if the game was 100% free with no crown store purchases and they had no on site techs to work these issues.

This will probably be removed, but after know the failure of Tabula Rasa that team sure did a bang up job....

ironically it was not the dev team on that one, it was richard and ncsoft constently butting heads, we had to scrap msot of what we had done because htey wanted changes. then did not like the change. As much as i liked the diea of it the game was doomed from the start.

most 100% free games have little to no lag due to the larger revenue that pure cash shops generate over a sub.cash base. And i am complaining about the lag that started with the last update. not the one that has been in the game since launch.
