I think it is funny we've been conditioned to think this way. We would rather have the event ended early and go back to the "normal" amounts of soul crushing lag and bugs rather than have those things targeted and fixed.

*adjusts tinfoil hat*. This is all part of the master plan! ZOS is actually planning on adding to the subscription plan that will almost guarantee a lag/crash free experience! Do not let them fool you, they know how the fix the glitch, they just want to charge people for the fix.

The problem is not inconvenience, It is that we cannot play the part of the game we like.

Why is it that you are not able to play? Are you crashing frequently, or getting large queue for the new campaigns? On PC NA at least even during prime time those don't seem to have much of a queue at all.

Huge queue combined with frequent infinite loading screen (much more than "normal") on PC EU

Once you infinite loading screen, there's a major chance than you're kicked out of cyrodil when you reconnect, then you need to requeue

Aisle9 · July 2017

Ok, I'm sorry I have to be the one telling you, but...

No, EU servers are doing kind of fine, to my knowledge, only the NA servers are the ones having problems...

... sorry.

We have occasional lag, though, there's that...

That said, I do see your point, and agree with you.

geonsocal · July 2017

fortunately I'm normally on late night (12pm e.s.t. and later) on ps4/na...have run in to a few issues, unfortunately most of it was due to my own poor connection speeds (wish I could blame zos)...

I can totally see though how prime time U.S. (4pm to around 10pm e.s.t.) would be painful...

This event sold me on pvp. I'll be playing pvp more than pve after its over.

thanks @rG_Kub ...this made me smile...something about the unpredictability/creativity of fighting a human as opposed to some AI "mechanic"/pattern really works for me...

love it that some of the most dangerous "monsters" in the game are players and not npcs...always reminded of this when I head in to IC

It would be an admission there's a systemic problem - not random DDOS, not telecom companies, not people not having nice enough computers, not sunspots, not tiny pixel wildlife, not our imaginations - an actual problem with the infrastructure they're running. And it would be an implicit admission they've been ignoring us telling them that for a long, long time.

So I don't see it happening. Silence and limping along and telling us it's fixed when it's not is SOP at this point.

Dced again NA pc

PlagueSD · July 2017

80% of the user base wants the event extended. Forum polls don't lie.

For the new campaigns? Even Kastav?

I've killed you a few times while you were running with the AD zergs a while ago. You seemed like you were doing fine.
Ever since I switched my ISP, my performance has been almost stellar, minus a couple of disconnections earlier in the day today, and the occasional 400 ping spike.

There's definitely something wrong with the server, but it's not huge enough for ZOS to justify ending early.

If you killed me I was not doing alright .

Edited for truth .

@Rohamad_Ali I'm going to tell you straight like this. This was my experience during this event. I deal with ridiculously high queues (if I choose to entertain them), that range from 300 to 500. I get disconnected and frozen regularly. When I'm not getting gimped by ZOS, I ride around solo, and spend time running from zergs. Or getting merked from zergs catching up to me. I get bursted down from attacks I can't even see, let alone respond to. Can't bring myself to zerg surf, so I solo all my engagements and try to lend a hand to those getting ganked as you have seen from videos I've posted. I try to get into keeps, and doors refuse to work. Resulting in me getting slaughtered right in front of the door. My health bar is screwed up 9x out of 10 from the desyncs caused by snipe or whatever skill that has my bars jammed up. I ask in zone chat for help when it gets bad, and I get told how emperor sharing and AP farming is the goal. l get told that I should just go around the group of gankers tearing people from Point A to Point B.

Admit it, Roh'... 90% of builds are cheese, and we both can agree that it's beyond obnoxious how the player base behaves. And that the current state of PvP is at an all time low. Things will not be fixed. Just empty promises. They don't even bother to give ETA's anymore. They don't even bother to say, "There's no silver bullet." They respond with silence, or something goofy. And all it breeds is toxicity and hostility. That's it and that's all. For once the sky is really falling in regards to ESO. People can lie and pretend that ZOS isn't at the end of its rope with ESO. Sure. They have that right to, but that doesn't mean you have to be 1 of the fools who gets hit by a flaming cloud. I get that you want to promote productive thought and positivity. Yes. I respect it too. But bruh, keep it 100. Keep it G, and call it how it is. CC immunity don't even work properly now. PvE or PvP. I just made a thread about that too.

C'mon Roh'... Just keep it real. Call things how they really are. ZOS doesn't give a damn anymore, and have even gotten cocky with their attitude toward things. Released an event that didn't even have achievements registering. What type of s*** is that?

I am keeping it real . The queue can't be a issue when they made other campaigns available . I give credit where it's due . I don't freak out at cheese builds because that's just opinion . Unless it's broken and being exploited , I don't care what people run , there's a counter for somewhere . The fact the event is causing PVE to lag and the server to crash is my issue and its 100% legit . People can say they don't have issues but we all know the when the server crashes , everyone is effected no matter what they try to say to the contrary .

I even put in the op it's a request . I am not demanding anything . Enough people have left for other games till this is over that I felt saying something . I am not boo hooing and rantings because I want two things .

Those who are not aware of these problems in PVP to be aware and help support us for a better all around game . And those at ZoS trying hard to fix the issue to know there are some people willing to sacrifice a event for better performance . Most of them would like a special event for PVP but only if it does not make current issues worse .

Shardan4968 · July 2017

I don't have problems with playing the game. I'm really enjoying this event and I hope they will add more PvP events in the future. Also I don't want to end this event early, because I still have one achievement left.

Vapirko · July 2017

I get some people are having issues but I don't think it's completely on ZOS' end. I'm playing from SE Asia and in 3 hours I got kicked once with pop lock on all factions. I think that whatever this node issue is can be at least partly solved using a good vpn. Again I can recommend Mudfish since it's pay by data not month and you get plenty for months worth of play for $3 so it doesn't hurt to try. I'm also playing on an old MacBook Pro so I think if I can get it working right now then so can most people. There is a fair amount of lag however.

Who cares about home campaign?

Personally I dont. But the fact that they did this event with a day left on vivics campaign, leading to large Q times for all factions trying to get in and finish it was really dumb on their part.

Also adding two more servers only after people complained about wait times, and the fact that they had to wait till Monday to give everyone a free server transfer, just goes to show the incompetence of the games staff, and how little thought they put into anything that they do.

I respect your statement and do not expect everyone to feel as strong as I and some other do . In the end , no matter what , the PVP performance needs to be improved so that these events can have the same positive reaction for everyone playing . That is the most important thing .

MarbleQuiche · July 2017

I'm not sure the server is crashing because of the event (this is NA, right?) It had started crashing prior to the event and I think it's got a kink in it somewhere.

Queues etc. I can get that. But to be a little self-interested, it's good that for once it's not the EU server throwing fits. I wasn't around at the weekend, but I've not noticed any serious performance problems because of the event (except one massive three-way battle at Alessia with hundreds of players).

But it's easy to blame the event. My prediction is that NA problems will continue post-event as they were happening pre-event.

I suppose anything is possible and it just feels like the event is exasperating old problems but it's really not . Then again the moon landing could of been a hoax and sunscreen really is causing skin cancer . I would be foolish to say ai know for sure about anything .

All do know is what has been written and experienced . This is not a day one event complaint . I waited several days for any improvements .

If they don't care about Cyrodiil performance, why would they care about this request.

Don't worry, it'lll be over one day

They should just hand out laurel leaf crowns, and finish the achievments and titles. Give everyone 10 mil AP and 500 event boxes on the game just for putting up with this horribly failed event. While they are at it, mail everyone t-shirts saying "I lived through the ESO nightmare" or something. I wonder when they will finally admit they can't fix this problem.

ehehehe it's almost like it's a Midyear Mayhem.

That you were even in close proximity of said zergs, especially around the Roe/Nikel/Ash line, shows that you were fine enough.

It's not about being inconvenienced, it's about not actually being able to do the one thing many people are here to do. Let's say you do pledges every day. And one day you log in and get notified that you'll need to wait 2 hours before your pledge is ready for you, and you have to stay logged in and wander around until then. And then that happens every day for 2 weeks.

Or say you're in a trials guild and you do the weekly trial every night. And you get your raid together, and have to wait around for 90 min before you can enter the trial.

Or if you're a quester, and you get a pop-up telling you that the npc you need tofu ish the quest phase won't appear for you until the 394 people who started the quest before you are done. And you can't do other quests while you wait.

like those people, you can find something else to do in the meantime. there is more in the game than just pvp. no, do not end the event early. suck it up until the event is over. after all, this may be the trigger that gets cyrodil upgraded.

Fur_like_snow · July 2017

Actually had the thought the other night about how we should just ride this used car as hard as we can till the wheels fall off because if the NA servers catches on fire then ZOS will have no choice but to replace the hardware. Can't buy crown crates if you can't login.

DirkRavenclaw · July 2017

I agree. Im living in Germany, play on the NA Server and have usually a Latency of 150 to 250. This is good. But yesterday i got kicked out every 10 mins, last night i issued two Tickets because i have pings of 800 to 999+. Think today, allright lets play a round, what is, 999+. I get not even a automated response about my Tickets. I just wanna play
