Very straightforward question. It seems as though zenimax is continuously closing threads on lag, performance issues, etc without actually acknowledging the issue as THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUE PRESENT, CURRENTLEY. So what is your opinion?

    Blade and Soul is worse imo when it comes to lag and lag in that game is a quicker death compared to here from what I've done.

    We should look at this more positive . ZoS has the highest ping .

    Ok . So there is isn't a positive side to this ...

    I think that zos continuing to develop new content, devoting all their resources and time to cosmetic crown store related items as well as new dlcs while ignoring the fact that the performance is degrading exponentially every patch is by far the most laughable act by any developer, ever.

    I think saying "worst of any MMO" is probably not the right way to say it. As it includes a lot of pay to win and freemium asian market MMOs as well as a bunch of really old MMOs that are poorly maintained. So in that statement objectively, ESO would not be the worst.

    "Worst of any AAA MMO" I would say yes.
    Ah, e-communities - the "pinnacle" of the internet............yeah, right.

    If you compare it to FF or WoW, then it is by far the worst. Like FF/WoW>>>>>>>>>ESO worst.

    Oh I've been in development over 10+ years and I've seen a lot worse. It's not as the developers come in to work every day and start working on whatever they want to. Developers work on what they are instructed to. The decision to devote time/assets to 'fixing' the server performance (which wouldn't even be a developers job) is decided above their pay grade. It's like blaming a commercial pilot when there is an airport delay.

    How about out of this list of MMOs for 2019? That would be a more realistic comparison.

    It is a rare mind indeed that can render the hitherto non-existent blindingly obvious. The cry 'I could have thought of that' is a very popular and misleading one, for the fact is that they didn't, and a very significant and revealing fact it is too. - Douglas Adams

    Not sure its laughable I'd have said pathetic.
    Either way it's been going on far to long

    ESO PvE is fine.
    ESO PvP is so laggy that it make players quit the game out of frustration.

    I'm sure there are other MMO's that are in an equally bad state. However ESO has hit rock bottom.

    You won't notice the performance drops in other games as much as this one to be fair though, so does it perform worse? Sure, but its not apples and apples comparison.

    Try to bring WoW or FF engine into real time combat with block/dodge/movement like eso and they are going to stutter and fail as well.

    That being said, its pretty bad and they really don't know how to fix it since they created a problem no one else has ever had to fix.
    Tl;dr really weigh the fun you have in game vs the business practices you are supporting.

    Well its really really bad here, so I cant imagine another game possibly having worse performance. I just never understood how all these magazines and websites dont call them out on this. Its not just a handful of players saying this, its simply undeniable and ZOS just keeps on trucking and putting out content.
