Finding it hard to see your problem.
I’d like to see the fixes come as much or more than the next person, but we’ve been asking for some hard info for years, and they’ve never, ever risen to the challenge. They have always made vague promises that, “they’re looking into it,” or whatever. Maybe they are, maybe they aren’t, but one thing for sure is it never really gets better, and we have to assume that at this point the effort they’ve put into it, and what’s amounted from that effort, is as good as it’s gonna get. That’s no consolation at all and it’s not meant to be, just the truth as derived from years of watching the patches go by with no real or lasting changes.

I honestly believe they don't know what they are doing. 4.5 years to figure out the problems and implement solutions? I'd be sacked if it took me that long to fix something in my own job.
As the title states,
Many of us that play in Cyrodiil on the daily are having horrendous issues and yet to hear any real feedback from any dev or even a mod...
Cyrodiil is on the verge of near unplayable, the servers are either disconnecting random players or the servers are just completely lag ridden. or Lag Ridden Thread(Main) Currently the lag is actually worse than our PING truly states.
-> Another server lag thread
Honestly its not just Cyrodiil at this point, this can be a general server thread about issues everywhere because even in Rawl my PING is sitting at 100, but it spikes to 120-130, sometimes 150.
I wont say anything needs to be done because that is the devs job to track down and fix issues. But will we be getting new servers, or will you be looking into the issue?
There are hundreds of PVP threads of people complaining about this issue and most, if not all of the threads "Z" responses are "We have removed..blabla...copy/paste" Instead of talking about the issue or taking part in the community.
Example:
175 ping - 1 second delay
200 ping - 2 second delay
250 ping - 2.5-3 second delay
etc... But sometimes this delay is multiplied by 3 or even 4 its horrible.
Before Summerset ping: 70-85, spikes to 120
After Summerset; average 100 even out of pvp.
I'm in California 350mb/s down, 30mb/s down internet speed.
My computer is hard wired, and my computer specs are no where near trash... Its to the point of where I can confirm its your end and not mine. I've even tried disabling addons to and played without addons... It did not help with the PING.
To those who will say "don't zerg" I don't zerg, I run on the side lines and often ahead of, or in different areas of the zerg but still get affected and pray to RNG that the other player gets the lag spike and not me so I can win. As a PVP player I really want to hear a response from ZOS about the recent increase in lag, not FPS but PING.
We have had a direct response related to the stuttering, which to be honest is no longer as present as the server issue.ZOS_AlexTardif wrote:Thanks everyone for the information!

I'm sorry in all my years of playing this is one of the more unplayable states. I use to play when ping averaged 1k, but heck it was playable everything was on the client then!

I completely agree, they just won't give us any anyswer or even agree its an issue. If anything they'll say its the zerging but Cyrodiil population has been cut from 750, to 500, to 150 or even less... Its not the zergs now.It's bad...crazy how they won't even acknowledge it.
Its bad because I feel like the ping is multiplied by x3-4 all the time nowServers aren't supposed to have a lag of 100ms but act like it's 999+?
Yeah the issue is real. In prime time when there are hundreds of players around its literally unplayable. Breaking out off CC in time is almost impossible. Roll dodging or shielding in time - impossible. When you play light/medium armour and you relay on speed, reflexes and timing not on high damage mitigation you're gonna be screwed.
.
Its weird because ESO has been in the top 5 for PVP MMOs for 4 years running while its PVE has been eh. Honestly its time to focus on PVP because with ES6 coming out in 2-4 years no one will want to PVE... They have the real game for it. I don't know whats going through their mind but I do hope they take acknowledge to this issue and hopefully let us know they'll be pouring resources into fixing this, or even re-looking at their architecture. I recently read that its their own engine:Lifecode666 wrote: »
I came back recently expecting to have fun after a long break and was devastated by the state of the servers and I just want answers...I agree I actually started doing PVE content to avoid the lag, but sometimes even spike there lol.Ectheliontnacil wrote: »2 months ago I spent over 90% of my in game time pvping in Cyrodiil.

@Vapirko check out the article I linked above you'll laugh. They brag about having the power in their hand by making their own engine! LolI’d like to see the fixes come as much or more than the next person, but we’ve been asking for some hard info for years, and they’ve never, ever risen to the challenge.
Oi, also don't forget sometimes it uses your resources but doesn't even go off now days!Even when u are in a 1v1 its just impossible. I was on my mdk and trying to flame lash my target. I tried this for 30 seconds and my char was just "dancing" trying to lash but then stop in the middle of the animation..
I agree, they either should constantly, and I mean constantly over test their game to ensure these bugs don't go live... or just don't do them.. I doubt they even smoke tested the game or anything.. Maybe? I have no clue how their testing procedures are, but they don't read the player feedback on PTR? I don't know actually maybe they do, maybe they don't but player feedback is most important.The much-hyped server improvements - what happened to them? When Summerset went live there was a definite improvement but since the first patch performance has been worse than ever.
This is all pve as well in NA server.. My ping says 268 but then jumps to 668...
I don't think its all ping, i think theres some sort of server side dsync as well, even in bad ping skills should fire.. mine are doing nothing and i'm still getting cooldowns..
NA, California. Silicon Valley.

Oh damn, idk can’t help ya lol. There may be at least some optimization you can do on your end? I really don’t know but I play on NA from Thailand and normally don’t go past 350 ping. Bad days I get the 700-999 yes but it’s not normalz
Monday afternoon... log in with my friend to do some PvP... we had to quit 30 mins later. 100 ms latency always spiking to ***500+ ms, skills constantly not firing, skills hitting you all at the same time, break free not working. It was like this for both of us and we live in different countries.
***On the other hand, they do seem to have fixed a lot of the FPS issues. The game runs pretty darn smooth now, even with lots of fighting going on.
