Lag in the Elder scrolls online.

vokage89

So I logged in today for about 30 minutes . 20 of that was in que for Cryodiil. The next 5 Was Riding to Brk for some PVP , And the next 5 was me trying to log back into the game from lagging out the second I got there...This was my experience in the Elder Scrolls online today. Its very hard to express the amount of frustration this brings. I remember watching an eso live talking about server performance, and it was stated " we are peeling back the onion " That was a long time ago... how much of this god damn onion can there possibly be left?!

I do not care about your crown store..The balance of the game..or any DLC you plan on releasing. It all means nothing if the performance of the game makes it unplayable.
Can we just be honest with each other ..just one time? Can we get a real answer as to what the problem is? and are you going to FIX the problem?

Packet loss is the issue. Read here: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/256376/eso-performance-and-lag-technical-discussion/p1

No, they can't fix it entirely without rewriting their code.

Yes, they want to do that eventually, but it's incredibly cost prohibitive and PvP isn't well-monetized right now.

Yes, the lag has vastly improved patch to patch for the last year or so.

Yes, your addons may impact your fps -- potentially massively. Try completely deleting your Addons and SavedVariables data folders and then reinstalling them. Those folders contain data from old settings and even addons which you deleted years ago if you've played that long without purging the files. This data can cause serious fps drops depending on how much has accumulated. Made a world of difference for me.

You can also follow the tips here to gain some fps. It worked for me.

Or you could choose not to play in the pop capped campaign at the height of prime time... That's probably your best bet to be fair. Good luck!

Is that true? PVP may not draw in much cash directly - but how many people choose to play this game because of the PVP - and spend money on other aspects as a result of them choosing to play this game.

If these people go because of PVP performance issues, Zos loses money.

That's not directly measurable. Just speculation.

Hey, have you heard about the new Dragon Bones DLC? That'll totally keep you busy instead! Make sure to pick up the crowns you need to purchase it!
