Latency and lag have been awful since, well, foreve.Which is terrible given that this is 2018 and ZOS considers eso a top AAA mmo ..msot of the top AAA mmos are older and have MUCH better performance...
Now the problem is, i moved back home, from NA to EU and if the lag was bad there, now its making it impossible to pvp...AND i cant move any toon to EU and by logging into EU i lose everything (cp,mounts, achieves, all the $$ i spent on the store..)>>> given the very poor quality of the service it would be a bare minimum to help out people in my situation..ELSE you sort of funnel me and others into breaking TOS in terms of selling/Buying accounts because no one wants to lose all the time and $$ invested, sicne if i bite the bullet and go EU EVERYTHING in my NA accoutn will be worthless including all the time spent and money used..(plus everyone knows that what im asking is doable, not only you have done it before when consoles opened, but every game does it, CHARGE us for all i care, charge 100$ for every character transfer for all i care, but do something.

Can I transfer my ESO account and characters between different platforms?
Updated 11/27/2017 10:30 AM
We have not built, and do not plan to build, the capability to move individual characters from platform to platform. We were only able move characters in bulk for console once on June 1st 2015 because the database tables we copied to were brand new (empty). Now that the database tables are filled with other data, the techniques we used before no longer work.

No. You are not able to transfer characters or items from one server to another. You can, however, transfer items from one character to another within the same server by using the in-game Bank.2 -
eso_lags✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭Let me give you an example of how the elder scrolls online works in a couple phrases.. Oh the game doesn't work? You cant play? You dont like it? WELP, deal with it or leave. And my favorite one; **** you, give me money.
Sorry. I have 900 cp on xbox and 170 on PC. Started pc last week, long road ahead but please let me give you some advice.
Vivec is almost, if not, just as bad as it is on xbox when it comes to lag. I have heard from a lot of players they move to one server or another to escape the lag. I dont think that helps. I think this games servers are busted, especially in pvp or large player gathering areas. Now will they ever fix it? Probably not.
Zos doesn't make money off of the skilled 10% of players in the game..They make money off of the casual 90% of the game who will either aspire to be top players or remain casual, or role players, or questers etc.. Things that aren't DESTROYED by lag. So this means if the 90% aren't complaining then why fix it for the players who want to play in the somewhat competitive ways the game has left. Why fix it for the players who actually care...? That costs money. Until we have a forum post with 10 thousand people complaining i doubt it gets fixed. And even still maybe not.. but i could be wrong and i hope i am.1 -

Start again. there's logic in that somewhere.
Otherwise, learn to play with crap performance. There's plenty of people around with experience that can help you.

c'mon do you guys 'We cannot copy tables from 1 DB to another because the target DB is full of data' won't wash I'm afraid. Just tell us that it is not your policy and be done with it. Give me a DB backup and I could write you a script in a day.
seriously give me a copy of the live db.

Not only that but moving characters on both NA and EU accounts to and from the PTS server is done every PTS cycle, so yeah. Having a server move service i.e. on set dates every 6 months that you sign up for on your account page, maybe for a fee, wouldn't perhaps be that overly hard to execute.
It's too much $$ spent on account that isn't account wide but server or character bound.Edited by Idinuse on February 19, 2018 11:10AMSed ut perspiciatis unde omnis iste natus error sit voluptatem accusantium dolorem que laudantium, totam rem aperiam, eaque ipsa quae ab illo inventore veritatis et quasi architecto beatae vitae dicta sunt explicabo.

Actually it makes perfect sense to me. Think about all the unique item IDs that could collide when copying data from one database into another.
Yes, they could develop new code to reassign those IDs as they copied, but they are focused on other likely more profitable enhancements. And imagine the potential issues with the inevitable bugs.1 -
idk✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭If the lag was not an issue in NA but is in EU then it is obviously not an ESO issue. Also, your account is good on both NA and EU though the characters and achievements do not carry over. There are a number of players that started their game on both servers and play just well on both servers.
BTW, while I am probably fortunate. My ping is not even double on the more distant server than the one closer to me.
Finally, there is a subscription service that routs your data through more optimal paths and improves ping as a result. It is used by some gamers but I do not recall the name of the service.0 -

✭but every game does it, CHARGE us for all i care, charge 100$ for every character transfer for all i care, but do something.
I agree, I don't understand why they don't allow this. They would make players happy and they would profit at the same time. How is that not win-win? Sometimes you have to wonder what is going on with old Zeni, why is paid character transfer not implemented. I mean are there even any reasons not to?
The reasons the devs have given are ridiculously nonsensical: "Now that the database tables are filled with other data, the techniques we used before no longer work.". Is this Zeni's attempt at technobabble?Edited by Jayman1000 on February 19, 2018 2:45PM2
