Main Thread for Long Loading Screens

Hey for the record I just want to point out that telling people to "just play PvE" is not a workaround for this problem. I left a character at Mournhold after doing my writs this morning before work and am now trying to get on to that character. I have now logged in to that character 3 times. Each time, I run 10 feet and get stuck in an infinite load-screen. This is the definition of game-breaking if I've ever seen it.
This issue is not affecting only PvP

This just happened again to a character I left in Belkarth. On my 3rd attempt now just to log on to that character. Every time I get in, move 3-5 feet, infinite load-screen. This is so bad.

Its getting worse as the days go by. It's rife in pve now. Even just walking through a normal zone myself and guildies are getting load screens.

Ofcourse.. they're all away stuffing themselves with turkey, so nobody left to manually unbreak stuff when it gets stuck.

Duct tape and bubble gum.. that's what's keeping this game running.

I've about had it with these load screen lock ups. This is completely unacceptable for a company's service to it's customers. When is this getting FIXED!!!!!

One common thing I'm noticing with all the Wayshrines I have trouble with, is that there's usually a bunch of idiots duelling near the Wayshrine. And I do mean ALL the Wayshrines I have trouble with.

Using the Wayshrine works fine, it's coming out of the load screen on the other side.

Apache_Kid

Cannot even get on the game within a reasonable amount of time to do my crafting writs due to hitting these load-screens. Literally the only thing I want to get on to do and can't even do it without having to re-log multiple times because I am hitting the screens by walking through town. Xbox ESO+ subscribers should have the whole month refunded to them for this farce of an update. That you as a company don't feel obligated to compensate us for this ****-up of epic preportions is truly disgusting.

It's worse than ever for me today.
I can't use a single Wayshrine without getting an "long load" screen, and having to restart the game.
Going through doors is increasingly hit or miss as well.
Not only that I'm starting to get Login Failure messages, and Internal Error messages as well, just trying to load the game.

I don't PvP, so this is all in PvE areas.

I quested in cwc on Xbox na and had 0 loading screen problems. Xbox one x. My issues are only in cyrodiil.

For me it happens about 40% of the time when I travel by wayshrine. The zone doesn't seem to matter. I can let it sit and it just stays on the loading screen telling me every few minutes its taking too long. My last one froze jumping from the DeShaan Mournhold wayshrine to Quarantine Serk Wayshrine. If I wait long enough before resetting, when I reload I'll be at my destination. If I reset before 3 to 5 minutes I'll be where I started. I have had a few on the loading screens moving in and out of an area like the Davon's Watch Outlaws Refuge.

I've played the pc since beta and I'm not currently experiencing the problem on the pc just the Xbox One which I just started playing since the free play event.

3 weeks now still pvp not working one more week then will be cancelling my monthly subscriptions the game is unplayable been off 4 4 days and still no fix but let's sell items on black Friday who cares about the core players it's all about revenue not customer satisfaction

I just want to hop in and say this has been excellent communication on ZOS' part. I tend to live up to my name whenever I critique your company's work, but this truly earns you guys and gals at ZOS a pat on the back. Now, if only you could extend this same level of communication to other aspects of ESO (such as PvP), I'd be thrilled.

The communication only improved after a general uproar over the initial lack of communication. It's great that they finally realized they were doing a disservice to the community by trying to hide the issue and the update from Gina about the fix was exactly what was needed, but I wouldn't go congratulating them on a great job when it took numerous threads in the general discussion folder to prompt them into action.

Hopefully, the next time something like this occurs, they'll take a more proactive approach to informing the player base. That's when I think they deserve a "pat on the back".

I'm well aware.

People tend to respond better to positive reinforcement over the long term rather than constant negativity.

There's more than enough posts negatively outlining ZOS' fault on this particular matter. The matter has been corrected; therefore, we praise the behavioral change. If we want ZOS to continue this communication, we applaud them. We do not continue to scold.

If you're interested, google positive and negative reinforcement for more details.

I have to say something again.

PC - Eu

Before this " fix " the loading screens were business as usual, constant and all the time in cyro.

HOWEVER

They are EVERYWHERE now, and I mean everywhere. Come out of my small imperial house, long loading screen, or permanent loading screen. Go from Bandari Trading Post to Ral Kha, mega loading screen, DO ANYTHING, long loading screens. This fix has literally broken the game for PC. This is just......I just cant.....

Imagine thinking people saying negative things on a message board is an excuse for poor business practices.

From whatI understood they reverted back to before the last update. If they didnt, I dont know what is wrong, but the loading screens are god awful atm. The worst I have ever seen in the game.

I am saying that they should be better at communicating regardless of what sort of positive or negative reinforcement they receive on here. If they were to say "Well we are going to not communicate better because a few people on the message board said negative things" then that isn't right. Which is what you are implying will happen if we do not give them praise.

PS4 Pro, using the hard drive that came with it.

My long load screens happen randomly while play PVE areas, usually while traveling via wayshrines.

However in PVP areas it's easily 90% of the time traveling to and from keeps, respawning after a death, and one time I had it popup while just waiting of a revive while taking a keep.

Pretty frustrating considering pre 8 PM I was able to play PVP on November 26th in Kyne below level 50. Then I go back on an hour later and I'm unable to successfully travel to and from keeps and forward camps. I spawned in at a forward camp that was overrun by a group of 10 to 15 blues. Let's just say I was annihilated within seconds and the camp wasn't even there anymore when I loaded back in. Unfortunately I watched it happen to a few other unsuspecting players that loaded back in, and the blues just waited to pick us off one by one. I'm just trying to unlock vigor for PVE.

Overall I probably have had 8 to 10 long loads screens that I've restarted for.

This has become unacceptable.. PvP is nearly unplayable now.. Especially if your in a campaign that gets zerged over on a daily basis aka EP Vivec Xbox NA. As soon as you run into a massive DC Zerg (which takes about 30 seconds) you know your heading straight to dashboard. Meanwhile they stay in the game because of safety in numbers and rez’s.
The campaign disparities alone are enough to say F it... This just takes the cake. And switching campaigns is pointless because the other ones are ghost towns. Fix your game. You have an obligation to the consumers to provide a working product... People paid and pay good money for this.

I had to stop playing the load screens we're making me toxic. I almost sent hate mail. It's just so annoying to have a group of 5 nightblades chase you around the map and tbag you, and you know to respawn you have to get dashboarded

Nerf nightblades!

Aye, they should communicate better regardless. However, you're both missing my point.

I didn't mean to mislead you by claiming ZOS will or won't take a stance based on positive/negative reinforcement. I was using it as a hypothetical example. I simply think it's more likely feedback would be better received if it's appropriately charged. Hopefully that makes more sense.

Almost always occurs the worst at Eldenroot. Xbox One. Internal drive. Walking into Undaunted area got loading screen and have been stuck ever since. Have tried to restart 3 times. Still stuck in load screen for 15 minutes. Hard wired connection. NA server.

Ps4
Na
MoL runners that die get loading screen 99.9% of time

Havent been on for 2 weeks. Come online in Cyro, first death = the loading screen.

Waited over 10 mins and no change so Im back off for another 2 weeks.

Servers empty, looks like most people have given up on it now

Korpsy666

I know this is not the best solution, but if you die and got infinit loading screen, close the app and return to cyrodill is the best way to go. It take 2 minutes and you are done.

Punk378

So I finally loaded in after restarting 4 times. Tried to go into eldenroot to use the bank and as I was going to upper floor game froze and restarted. Now trying to load again. Ugh

M3atwad

Been in a load screen since Nov. 7th. Is this normal gameplay ?

Taysa

How can this be linked with CWC when this issue with load screens has been an issue long before CWC was even on the PTS, let alone live?
