PC EU server is working like garbage

mandricus

Nothing more to say. Unbelievable lag everywhere in Cyrodiil, any campaign.

DJfriede

ZOS knows it but decided to not act on it.

zos do not give a *** mate

JD2013

Did some PVP earlier in Sotha EU and was pretty damn smooth.

But there have been random lag spikes and stuff and long load screens in a lot of places.

PC EU, Sotha campaign. 100% unplayable atm.

mandricus

Yes let's be more accurate: going not as bad as the past days. Sometimes you are even able to play without lag. But then random lag spikes occurrs, random loading screen out of the blue, and random disconnections.
P.s. loading any character takes forever! The login / loading time it's so deteriorated that It's becoming unacceptable.

DJfriede

There is nothing random about lags. Get close to even a medium sized battle, and there, you have it!

when you cant cast FM at the spawn in sotha HYPE

So question for all of you, why complain about it? There have been so many post on the EU sever being very bad for just the past month or so. How many of those post have zos posted in?

Now I think it sucks I dont play in the EU, but i know i would be just as angry as all of you if it was me. No disrespect to any of you i just dont understand nothing is going to change. Has anything ever really changed? You know the post where they said they learned and will communicate better how that go?

Sorry this happens to you it sucks just not sure what is expected of zos when this has been on 1st page everyday.

You are correct, but people feel like venting when faced with such a bad service on a paid product.

With all crooks, the first thing to do is cut off their money supply, so the only way to make ZOS notice is; log a ticket so it's formally traced, then cancel subs and any pre-orders. That said, ZOS have always treated EU customers badly, so my assumption is they don't actually get a lot of money out of us in the first place.

Because I want to keep the issue visible. They are obviously trying to sweep it under the rug (or wait for the end of the PTS cycle which might be running on the same servers). People should see how *** ZOS are treating their customers.

West1389

I get the keep it visible thing, It just seems like they really dont care. They never respond only to say we deleted comments. It really is like they dont value the EU community. Then you guys get hate from the NA peeps about it's all your fault. These are the same ones that would be on here saying things if it happens to them.

Well keep up the work I hope you get a response and stuff changes. Just think if we as gamers who play the game could all come together for like a week and not play or spend money I bet many things get fixed.

Sagranax

They should've been transparent about this whole issue from day 1. [removed bashing comments] It's a bloody disgrace when you think about it.

Not every campaign. I mostly play on Kyne. Last weekend I visited Sotha Sil... not gonna do that again. The difference is like cloudy day and night. Teleport to a keep and have skills greyed out for a minute. In battle everything including siege fires with a delay, if at all. It's garbage, can't believe people still play on that mess.

mxxo

Its not only campaigns. Everything feels slow. Sometimes even logout doesnt work and you have to quit the game to get out. Guild Stores are laggy. Today it took 3 minutes till i was able to see my listings. Everything is loading slower. It feels like the server is on its last life cycle.

General performance today feels more comparable to performance during the Summerfall event than performance immediately after the January software update. So they're on the right track. It's probably going to be several more months to resolve high traffic combat zones, though. That will require a number of small fixes on the Live server instead of a large blanket fix which would be just as disastrous to overall performance as the January software update was.

They're not hiding anything. They have no obligation to respond to the hyperbole of a small amount of players when that time is far better spent working on those small fixes.

I honestly don't see any fixes I only started back in November and as time goes by it only get's worse. I don't play in any campaign only bgs and pve and see lag almost everyday, bugged queues and long loadings, unresponsive guild stores etc.

It is not hyperbole. I get it that people tend to exaggerate things a lot, even with tiny problems. But there is a general consensus among PvP players that the performance in Cyro is at an all time low. I am in several PvP guilds, everyone reports the same problems. Of course, it is not lagging when I decorate my house or when I kill random PvE overland mobs. But that was never the problem, it's PvP, trials, dungeons and queues that really show how broken the underlying system is.

Unless they really do care, but they are unable to comment due to the reason behind it being the merger of servers between FO76 and ESO, a decision which was out of their control.

So because FO76 failed, ESO is now meant to go down with it? Brilliant Strategy.

West1389

It's just crazy it's what 5years and still going through this stuff. Fo76 should be a sign not much will get better. They still cant fix that game. I know 2 separate dev teams working on them but come on under 1 banner and every game they pit out has so many problems.

West1389

Last thing it's taken them 5years just to add a search option in the guild store.

Maybe because we like the game and payed for ESO+? A company as big as this should not have such bad servers.

I pay to have fun and expect a good service, since I did not get that I'm here in the forum sharing what's happening. It's as simple as that.

oxygen_thief

a good service from zos? is it a joke?

eso_lags

Its pathetic and shameful. Pvp players are *** on by this company. After playing previous elder scrolls and fallout games i never thought i would have such disdain for Bethesda and now zenimax. The way zos has treated its players is something I will remember the next time they *** out a game.

The state of this game itself is awful, at least from the standpoint of a pvp player on xbox, but the fact that they have ignored the problem for years is truly disgusting. I get on this game every day and try to go into vivec only to be stopped by lag. Lag with skills, animation, frame loss, and more. You cannot play. Even playing in a zerg i can imagine it must feel awful. Slow laggy gameplay. And it only gets worse every god damn update. Worse performance and worse for how long they go without taking the issue seriously.

I would love to know if the class reps have ever talked to them about it. Or tried to. But then again I think there are only a couple class reps who are mainly pvp players, if that.

I would also love to see zos, instead of running bgs on the pts or some dev server, log on to xbox and try to pvp in vivec. Or pc eu if the issue is as bad as it is on xbox, which seems to be the case. Maybe an eso live of dealing with the issues themselves so we know they are aware of how bad it actually is.. But we will never see that, and that is the worst part. Its flat out cowardice to hide from this problem and leave paying customers hopeless.

Demra

Btw its not just pvp. Even in 4 ppl group dungeon i cannot cancel animation and need to press R for a few moments till it fires. In cyrodiil the abilities just don't fire at all.

Half a year ago i didnt have much lag even during prime time in cyrodiil. Something happened.

Even sotha is getting unplayable nowadays. I mean its a good thing that campaign is alive but still, the no-cp folk in EU are just not so used to the vivec levels of lag.
