GAME CRASHES IN VIVEC CITY. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

LordFrank

At first, my game would completely crash (shut down and exit all the way back to the Xbox dashboard) whenever I opened the UI menu, used a crafting station, or talked to an NPC while in Vivec City. Now, it has deteriorated to the point of crashing when I merely enter the city. This has been going on nonstop, every single time without fail, since release. It is to the point where the game has become unplayable. I have waited it out because I was told there would be a fix for this- yet patches have been released and I am crashing worse than ever -on a console, in 2017.

Game is now crashing while using crafting stations in most major cities. I know this has always been a problem, but has become worse than ever after Morrowind. Can confirm just in the last few days my game has crashed in Elden Root (every single time without fail), Rawlkha, and Riften. What I would like to know as a paying ESO member- is how such a fundamentally broken flaw is still not fixed. I have not had a console game crash on me since the original Playstation in the 1990's. ESO crashes on me every single day, multiple times per day. That is insane and quite simply I have had enough. Something is severely wrong- there is clearly some kind of memory issue when loading crafting stations or perhaps the entire UI in general that needs a serious revamping. You cannot continue to sell a broken product to the public unless you finally dedicate the proper resources to actually addressing this issue and stop sweeping it under the rug as you have been doing so for the last 3 years. Because it keeps getting worse, and worse, and worse, and soon enough this game is going to become unplayable. I am far from the only player that is fed up with the constant crashing, poor (and STILL broken) grouping tool, and network issues that is a black plague over a game that could be great but lacks the technical repairs that it, and its players, deserve.

You need to put in a "ticket" IMO, and you may need to reinstall the game from scratch (it will keep your char settings).
Let's just hope your hardware isn't going bad.

It has been the same for every dlc. Me and my guildies still crash in Orsinium, Hew's Bane and Kvatch.

Oh trust me I've installed, re-installed, installed onto a portable hard drive- same issues. My brother's game is crashing just as much on a completely separate console, as are my guildies and people in zone chat confirming same issues. This is far from an isolated issue and we've got no response from Zenimax. Why should I buy Horns of The Reach, so we can crash while in a dungeon now too? No thanks, you've lost a 3 year customer.

when you submit aticket regarding the issue on console it will typically be ignored

on the rare occasion you are acknowledged you are told to hard reset your console, clear your saved date, reset your router - which has no effect of the games performance

you are then told sorry not our fault its your xbox/internet/microsoft even though in my case i have the best internet available in the UK, my xbox works perfectly, and i have no isses using any other microsoft services accros any device

so you are then advised to come to the forums where the post will either be flat out ignored, receive a moddacum of sympathy from fellow xbox users, a pc player will often pop in & make a random post trolling the OP for playing on an xbox or suggest they disable all the add-ons etc but it will never recieve any acknowledgement from the developers, or bug support team

and every time a console player reports the 'crash loop' it is treated as an individual case that is user error, and so the larger picture of - this is effecting EVERYBODY on console in one way or another in overlooked and nothing is ever done, and nothing will ever change.

which is why OP you shouldn't buy horns or the reach, and you should cancel your subscription, and you should avoid traveling to 50% of the game becasue you WILL crash repeatedly in those areas

edt: tldr the games performance on console is ***, the developers dont give a *** about console players cancel your sub

Its quite annoying to do ANYTHING in Vivec City... I just avoid any interactions there other than to get the daily quests...
