constant ping spikes

themotherconfessor25
I've checked with my ISP, I've checked my internet speed settings, I've replaced my modem, so as you can imagine I'd really just like to know if I'm the only one getting constant ping spikes. The game is unplayable when this happens. My ping spikes every minute or so and the lag lasts at least 15 seconds each time. I've been trying to farm vma and it's impossible for me this way with intervals of 15 seconds where i don't know what the heck is going on. Is this typical of the game lately because I've pretty much been driving myself crazy trying to find a fix.

    While you run ESO take a peek to the Task Manager...
    I've noticed that after playing years of ESO my 8GB mem is sometimes isn't enough at the moment. While in the past this was more then sufficient.

    About the ping issue it was always there, for sure high peaks in Cyro TF; for this reason I changed campaign and it's better but still have spikes from time to time.
    I'm cable connected.

    I am getting a plethora of "freezes" when in game. There is no specific place or specific content that causes it, it just happens about every 5 minutes; everything stops, no skills can be casted, bar swaps, etc... then after about 10 sec of this everything resumes to normal. Rinse and repeat after 5 min. This has been happening since Saturday for me.

    Started happening to me this week, ping goes to 999+ every 10~20 seconds. Sometime it gets so bad that I get kicked to the login screen. The game is literally unplayable for me right now.

    So are a lot of people. I can't play the game myself without all of those same problems described above.

    There seems to be a connection in the middle of the country causing the problems. It may be the ZoS servers but I don't think so unless they are located in Nebraska
