What exactly do you think will change? The service zos has offered europe the last year has been beyond any considerable excuse. And to make it worse, the service they provide in US is of such higher standard it feels like they are two different companies (which is probably the correct assumption). I started playing NA sometime in december, and running a 200 ping primetime vivec NA is a blessing compared to any time in EU. No lag, or not noticeable, even when I get the 500+ ping symbol I can play as normal, skills go off when they should, movement is smooth and there is no waiting screens while porting.
We have the same codes in NA and EU (i assume we do), more or less the same playerbase, but still the EU servers performance has been up to and until today, with peaks the wrong way, absolutely garbage. The brand is under a huge strain in EU, players are losing confidence in the ability to handle a thing which in US seems like an easy daily routine.
How can we expect the servers to improve when clearly the problem lies within the actual hardware. Theres nothing to change or sort out in the software department, as long as the codes are equal in EU and NA. Its only a question of WHY zenimax chose to offer their EU partners such cheap hardware compared to what they offer their american audience.
We pay the same money as those in the US yet we get garbage while they get a fruit basket ...

While I completly agree with you, you're absolutely right! But its not Ginas fault, at least she tries to give us a sign that were not left alone completly.
Chat lag is back too. Outside of Cyrodiil. I usually have faith in them but I'm starting to wonder if the game truly is more than the servers can handle. Every time a larger amount of players are around, performance takes a dip. This shouldn't happen in a game meant to be played by many. Hoping for an empty shard just so we can play properly is sad.
I realy doubt it has something to do with population. Yesterday in a weekend with a ~80 ppl long queue there was no such issues but today with 3 bars on all faction we have this madness.
I don't mean in PvP. I mean around the festival events.
Although indeed it does not explain why there is chat lag. I suppose the patch is the culprit after all.
