Morrowind lags and crashes

aaron_campion

Within 15 minutes of me playing morrowind i had bugs where textures wouldnt load which eventually mad the game freeze then crash to dashboard. So once again with a dlc for eso there is bugs that potentially stop people playing

Even against normal npcs in non dlc areas its very laggy(could hardy weave light attacks , surprise attack properly)
Love the new leeching strikes thou.

On PS4 I've had 2 crashes so far tonight, and the frame rate in Vvardenfell has been totally dropping out at times. Looks like someone is just pausing the game for a half-second or so (not like in Cyrodiil where the frame rate just slows to a crawl when there's a bunch of stuff going on).


Also, the opening cinematic for the expansion was choppy and the audio was popping and skipping.

Morrowind was so darn laggy i Left immedeatly... Ill wait for a week and hope it settles down a bit

kunquatb16_ESO

I'm getting massive lag spikes, endless loading screens, random loading screens. interaction bugs, crashes, and after crashes usually getting error 200 for 30 mins - 1h. All on PC.

Game so laggy and unstable, can't even get through Writs.

Here on Xbox my friends sometimes get error 200 as well

On PS4, the game freezes for a split second every now and then. Doesn't matter where I'm at or what character I'm on - I played on an old character in Stonefalls, and a newly created character in Vvardenfell. It freezes, but just barely long enough so that you notice it's freezing - just like you said, it looks like someone is pausing the game for a half second. No crashes, however. The whole issue didn't start until Morrowind.

I like how ZOs put the banner up that said it was an "Xbox LIVE service interruption", which is completely false.

They were just trying to push the blame off on someone else.

Every other game I tried to play worked just fine, except for ESO.

Destiny? Fine.
Neverwinter? Fine.
Halo 5? Worked just fine.
World of Tanks? Fine as well.
Overwatch? Fine and dandy.

ESO? DC's and crashes and erroneously long load times.

ZOS just needs to nut up and take responsibility for their ***-tier servers and woeful lack of server stability rather than trying to push it off on another service. I mean, just trying to play other games told me that the issue wasn't with LIVE.

They even have a new banner saying that the "Xbox LIVE service interruption has been resolved", and even Xbox LIVE's own service updates said "All services available and normal".

Pathetic, ZOS. Just pathetic.

Game is freezing and locking up like crazy for me on PS4-NA. I also have a bit of the stuff recorded and saved. I'll upload videos soon.

Don't worry.

Expect ZOS to put up a banner blaming "Xbox LIVE service status" for PSN lag issues...

Gh0st71

The only time there's very low or no lag for me is when I'm running normal dungeons. I'm on PS4 btw.
I sure hope this gets fixed soon.

I had several DCs on PS4 as well.

I get at least three crashes each evening on PC.

I thought that was normal

The whole game has been getting laggier the last week or so. been getting randomly long load screens. like 2-3 minutes on requesting character load. Lags out clicking writ boxes. Don't get all my hirelings when I load more than half the time now. All my characters have 4 hirelings all synced to load at the same time and more than half the time I get 3 or less now. It's gotten so bad I have to delay my timer about 5 min every 12 hour cycle because of all the failures to get emails and having to reload, then getting long load screens. Lets not get into guild bank "DONK" still working on last transaction or whatever error. I hear that "DONK" in my nightmares.

I'm sure Gina is tired of hearing it but lets ditch the dumb hireling emails and just give us an npc or box to get them from. The email system is gimp and with the crappy 12hr timer that has no fudge factor built in I don't want to waste time reading the emails anyway.Change it to something like a daily quest reset at 00 and 12 and throw away the timer and emails.

Sorry that's not normal on PC anyway. Sure is laggy lately though.

I'm on the Xbox one and having similar issues. Textures don't load at all or don't load completely. The stairs to Vivec's room are usually missing/muddy. Textures in Balmora will do the same thing. Music will cut in and out and be choppy at times.

Is this normal for the console version? I played the PC version and didn't have any of these problems.

It's an unstable piece of *** on Xbox. Can't put it any nicer than that. I literally can't even go to Vvardenfell without it crashing every ten minutes, and on the Warden alt I setup that I'm playing through the old areas, it maybe lasts an hour at best before crashing to the home screen.

So basically I'm getting about half of what I paid for...

Absolute garbage.

The17thNinja

Im having the same issue. Constant crashing in Vivec City on Xbox One. I dread having to go there for any reason because it always crashes.

nine9six

IDK exactly what the issue is, but I've played from 3 different locations since the Morrowind "expansion" went live. All on fresh machines (rebuild after every major update, fresh "My Docs" files, etc. Seriously, dedicated IT Nerd.) and my Ping has gone from an average of 70 to 230+. Constantly.

I haven't crashed, yet, but the (albeit not MAJOR) lag is driving me nuts!

One of the locations / PCs is on fibre and should DEFINETLY not be having these issues. All machines are WELL above the required specs.

PC / NA. Minimal Addons, though disabling them has no effect.

Esomorrowind89

Crazy lag pvp on ps4 all ports open which are supposed to be internet speeds over 20mbps

ccfeeling

2 more dlc are coming , lag will going frequent and heavy soon rofl

Necrelios

This kind of reminds of the day when everything broke. You'll notice towards the end it was the day EP owned everything, so the myth is true, the world breaks when EP conquers cyrodiil!

Yes it is. All the DLC areas haven't performed well on Xbox, and to a much lesser extent PS4. Orsinium caused crash loops that had players characters trapped, they had to be individually moved by zenimax to different locations and players were simply told to no longer travel there.

Sugram22

i haven't played properly for year or few sometimes just jumping in at times, & yesterday i decide to play a bit & i experienced same thing, lag spikes then i had last time i played, in past i had little lag when i battled to close that oblivion gate, but this time it was worse i felt like any moment new my game will crash FPS at times wen to as low as 1-3, it wasn't all the time & sound also lagged, sound lagged sometimes even on normal combat, first time ever i experienced sound lag in a online game

loading was longer then usually (loading after login & second loading to game) & exiting game was problematic i felt like game crashed on exit cause screen was black long time & ctr + alt + del did nothing & after few min game was closed

but i don't have access to morrowind DLC

Hello,
Me and my friend had exactly the same problems on xbox. I tried to run the game from an external SSD (Crucial MX300 275GB in an USB 3.0 external enclosure):
no more low res textures, big stairs to Vivec's room always present, faster loading, less or shorter times with black silhouette players and invisible npc, even the map zooming/dezooming seems smoother.
My friend did the same thing with the same results, we both have the first xbox one model (fat)
