    Hey look !

    Another weekend another "lag, performance issue" thread.

    Whats this the 78th weekend in a row?

    YES WE GET LAG ON THE WEEKENDS IN ESO. THE STRAIN ON THE SERVERS DUE TO ALL THE CP CALCULATIONS CAUSES THIS.

    CP HAS TO BE ONE OF THE BIGGEST DISASTERS IN MMO HISTORY FOR ITS REMARKABLE NEGATIVE IMPACT TO SEVERAL ASPECTS OF THE GAME.

    Im not shouting, but you know next weekend someone else will post the same thing.

    While weekends are notoriously more laggy all round (not just ESO) I have had far more lag and disconnects since CWC came out. All week.

    I'm pretty sure there's been thread on lag every week since launch. But don't worry, ZOS will fix it all next patch.

    Plus we are making an assumption over the CP. ZOS did testing when they made all the pvp servers CP free. All it did was get RPers to play, while most of the PVPers I knew took the week off.
    Since they are mum on the results, we can assume that it wasn't a considerable cause.

    Since the update I have lower FPS and sometimes the characters doesnt respond and just walks sidewards.
    In the past I only had that in larger pvp battles, now it's also in group dungeons

    Yes I have had worse performance, where it matters, since CWC. In heavy, intense combat - vMA, vet dungeons - I have lower fps than before and, even worse, way more desyncing/lag where skills don't register, damage doesn't register, bar swap is slow, etc. For the first time ever I have had bad fps stuttering in dungeons.

    In light overland content and populated cities I do have better performance.

    It appears to me that whatever perf improvements they made have actually made things worse where it matters.

    So the patch notes mentioned "client optimization"... yet what I"m noticing is a fairly empty Brass Fortress during weekend Prime Time and that my group is invisible to me half the time. Were the "optimizations" just reducing the number of players you see?

    12-20 is normal.

    1-5 is low.

    25 is good.

    I got suspenders for saying "Testicular Mass" instead of "Balls". like, rilly.

    As an Xbox player who has had similar issues to you I am very curious as to these interesting things.

    Most times I've set foot at a dolmen, 999 ping, often followed by a disconnection, since the witches festival started. Prior to that, no problems. CWC is very laggy too.

    I've been geting really -bad- lagspikes on some occassions where the system will completely hang, or just slow to a crawl.

    It's recent though. Started around the back-end of Morrowind.

    Thats not true. Rich Lambert came out and said it was a main cause of the issues (cp). You people just complained about pvp in no cp and how you earned your cp and whatnot. Which I mean you arent wrong. But here we are.

    My guess is that some people don't read the forums every day or even every week.
    Some people don't go back more than several pages when looking for discussion.
    Some people are too lazy or casual to be able to search for a topic.

    So repeats happen, and popular issues happen more often.

    Best to just sigh and move on than point something out to someone who may hardly ever read here, or might not read responses to their own thread.

    I say this in the hopes that you don't burn out on trivial stuff, and keep your serene composure.

    Nothing seems to have changed from before CwC...apart from now I'm noticing bar swapping is unresponsive like when the game launched, I don't look to see if the bar has changed but when you fire off the wrong skills you look like a ***. So I suppose that comes under lag?

    lags are very frequent and in crowded areas they are really bad. I think they are getting worse with CWC update. This one metaserver thing is not scalable at all. They only solution - find the empty area for grind, etc.
