Something wrong in Wrothgar

majulook

Maybe its me... But it very laggy. Getting loading screens in the various places just a short distance from Wayshrines. Got 2 load screens (one after another) just out side the building you turn in the WB quests. Crashed game near the giant camp out side of Poachers WB.

This is at 3 - 4 PM eastern US.

Anyone else having issues in Wrothgar?

During the Orsinium event, when every man and his dog is there... lag? Really?

i know ZOS fails at delivering information, but didn't you see an event started? they only posted the news about Orsinium event and ESO+ free trial now once it started. But anybody who started the game 1 hour earlier and played a few hours then left for the day, lost this day of event because he didn't knew. ZOS doesn't inform with some time ahead. Sure there was on the forums and on twitter, but the launcher, steam, and ingame announcements didn't show any sign of upcoming event and free trial. Not everyone uses forums and checks their twitter.

so to answer your concern, Wrothgar is full of farmers right now, both for nodes which are double, and for vMA which also ahs double rewards.

Oh that explains it. a event that puts a lot of players into a zone.
Do the Megaservers do some sort of load balance by creating new instances to meet player population increase demand?

It's not you. It's quite literally, everyone else.
According to GOLDEN CLOVER GUILD MEMBERS who kindly posted elsewhere, that there is NO Double XP, this time. Once everyone gets wind of that, your lag problem should clear up.

they don't in game, but on all their social media and their website they mention it about a week in advance usually.

The Orsinium Anniversary event is happening right now.

Events ALWAYS draw in massive amounts of players to the zones specific to those Events.

Large numbers of players in a single area always causes worse than normal lag.

I wonder what it could be....

Every event means lag in whatever area the event is in. The usual zos planning.

You’ll get random load screens in Wrothgar without an event, nothing new to see with ZOS’s complete inability to have a stable game

They posted about it on the PC game launcher 2 days ago, that is when I saw it.

Wrothgar has always been a little bit dodgy on PS4 EU.

This happens on every event zone.
Lag got worst since U22 went live.
Another normal day....

Yeah. Before Elsweyr dropped and Wrothgar WBs were still run frequently, getting trapped in loading screens at wayshrines or random loading screens while riding around were very common. Gameplay wise it’s a great zone, but it’s one of the least optimized zones in the entire game.

And that’s saying something.

Yeah, pretty moronic idea in a game with huge and accepted performance problems for an event to be added which guarantees vast numbers of player and BOT will converge on a single zone .. in a system where normal operation leads to lag, loading screens, etc.

GG ZOS, excellent idea!

I just got Elsweyr on sale; after the Orsinium event started I`ve been finally enjoying myself with a more or less lag-free Elsweyr, and no more crashing during Dragon fights edit: I also own Wrothgar but think Ill spend most of the event time in Elsweyr

Played in Wrothgar on PC EU earlier today. (My norm is PC NA.) Holy smokes. Crashed to desktop twice, twice to character select and once had a rollback.

PC EU you have my deepest sympathies.
