    Yet another patch.
    A PC specific one that is.
    But zenimax has yet to release some word about the CHARACTER LOAD/ZONE CHANGE infinite load screens.

    I wonder if the fix in today's patch notes might not apply to that as well:
    Performance
    Fixed an issue where you could get a long loading screen after attempting to resurrect in Cyrodiil.

    No.
    Cyrodil has been totally fine for me(Once I make into it). Better than it was earlier, in fact.

    Since Mid November, It's getting through the login > Character Select > Zone Change screens that is causing problems for me and various other people in this thread.

    Hopping from shrine to shrine *within* a zone keeps happening normally for hours.

    Got an infinite loading screen after the LOGIN page today after applying the newest patch. I've tried restarting the game and the launcher (4-5 times) and my PC too, still nothing. I'm running it on my AMD quad core.

    My first login after a new patch is always longer than usual - I suspect the client is rebuilding its cache (shaders and such). It's never been 7 minutes, but then I have a very fast NVME SSD, so your results may vary...

    Three times now after every patch I had to delete/rename folders Addons and SavedVariables to fix infinite loading screen. Tbh, that is pretty annoying.

    While I am happy about this, it is quite insulting that once the console fix was released there was no more communication for the pc loading screen issue.

    Actually there was communication on page 27 and 28, not to mention as noted by many others there is no pc only load screen problem. The load screen problem that exists now also affects consoles and is a completely different load screen problem that was fixed on Xbox and PS4 recently.

    I'm glad that you have made a change to help the loading screens but when are you going to resolve the other issues with the loading screens. Example: When you are repairing a keep wall and just as it reaches the completed repair it kicks you into a loading screen and after that you continue to get long loading screens until you reload the client.

    Why do we even get a loading screen then?

    I can still get loading screens of death when resurrecting in Cyrodiil. But now I just quit the game for the night.

    The infinite loading screen is back again, I did PVE dungeon twice on different characters; both of them got the infinite loading screen upon entering the dungeon, I had to "END TASK" eso.exe and relaunch my game and guess what? I got kicked from dungeon before I could get back into the game. And then after I completed the dungeon, I left the group / dungeon back to Grathwood, got another infinite loading screen.

    Maybe its time to stop releasing new contents. Just fix all these bugs first imo.

    Not an "infinite" load screen issue, but definitely a new load screen issue.

    When keeps are flipping in Cyrodiil, it shoves us into a load screen. No, nothing is being repaired. The game just wants to reload when a keep is changing colors.

    This is game breaking in a sense that when my group of 20 is still alive and well and the other faction just happens to flip a keep, we all get shoved in a loading screen and half of us load back in dead because half of the other faction's load screens are half a second shorter than ours.

    When is all the money we're giving you actually going to go towards fixing these game breaking issues?

    Loading screen, when changing zone or even just entering refuge, not only took long, but also kick me out of server, i.e. unable to connect to game server, etc.

    With New Life Festival in sight, this is going to be really painful. Please look into it asap.

    Great advice, read the thread and you will clearly see it affects console users too. Not sure why pc users refuse to accept that it affects consoles also.

    Yes, we did get a load screen patch, but that was for a completely different problem. We still have load screen problems on console. I just don't want the problem to not be addressed because people keep insisting it's a pc only problem when it clearly is not.

    We’ve also been able to pin down a solid reproducible case for us to investigate that our own Game Director Matt Firor was encountering.

    There's a problem affecting Matt! Get right on it!

    Meanwhile, the rest of us have experiened loading screen problems (especially in Cyrodiil and in PVE-land during events) for what, several years now?
    My wife complains that I never listen to her. (Or something like that.)

    This is flat out bad joke is it not?

    First their customerservice flat out ignores straight forward tickets as mentioned above.

    I know they read this thread so respond via email about issue or have I NOT spend enough euros for you to bother? Last I check have unfortunately spend more than few hundred but who is counting,

    Enough of this bs just handle the ticket and I'am done. That should NOT be too much to ask from customerservice.
