Just curious, has anyone else seen this recently while doing PvE quests on PS4 / NA? I got this like six times yesterday. Several times while trying to use wayshrine to wayshrine travel. Once while entering a delve. Once while trying to exit a delve by selecting travel to an inn room. Once while trying to exit an inn room. Each time it happened I closed the game and started it again, or I restarted the PS4. I have even tried restarting the ISP modem/wifi.

Internet Speedtest on a laptop says there is nothing wrong with my wifi internet connection. Ping 18 ms, Jitter 1 ms, download 13 MPS , upload 0.8 MPS. And yes, it always gives these results, I have the public utility ISP in the city where I live.

Ya it's happened to me today. It's annoying as all hell.

This error only ever happens during loading screens for me, and it seems like it's been happening to everyone more frequently since wolfhunter. Even more so since the start of the imperial city anniversary.

A few threads on this with varying titles. Seems a fair number having these issues.

Been happening to me(Xbox one) internet checks out, speed test good etc. I had chalked it up to all the issues Xbox live has been having but if it's happening to ps too perhaps not.

This crap is as old as the game itself; don't be fooled, this isn't a game with bugs, its a bunch of bugs with a game hidden somewhere in them.

Yes! There's another thread about this right now here: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/comment/5434514

Sure, there have always been bugs and connection issues, but for me personally I have maybe had one or two times in the past ~7 months where the game has randomly disconnected during a PVE load screen and it has now happened to me three times in the last two days.

Yesterday I was trying to get the no death achievement on Banished 1; flawless run, got Rilis to 23%... then I got told I had no internet connection (Next two groups were already part way through and the last group forgot to activate HM then the healer died anyway... at which point I said "**** this!")
Also had "no" internet connection in IC on Sat night while in PSN chat. Funny how we could still all hear each other.
Then again this morning, questing in Coldharbour - though that one was probably my ISP's fault.

So yeah. And I'm on EU.

Edit: this has been happening more frequently for me since I switched ISP in June, though it's not every day thank goodness.

I remember trying to do the no death run for Cradle of Shadows when clockwork city came out. We got banished by Velidreth and the loading screen took longer than normal and the Hoaravors killed me before I could load in *sad face. She had 11% health left....*crying sad face

It's funny because I've crashed when trading, sending whispers, and going to my bank since December 2017. After the new dlc dropped it no longer happens. Now I just crash whenever the game feels like it . The game is under the impression that I don't have valid PSN account or internet most days.

I feel like that some days...
When I was trying to complete VMA - when I was still on ADSL - it honestly felt like someone was sitting behind the scenes going, "Right, she's back! How we gonna **** with her this time?!"
