There is no mention of any crash fixes in the beginning of the patch notes. In other words the constant crashing in Cyrodiil was not fixed. And I doubt it will be fixed on Monday either.

It's literally the first line.

"The Elder Scrolls Online v5.1.7 includes a fix for several of the game crashes that were introduced in the previous patch, and also has added safeguards against receiving repeated refunds for guild trader bids."

Well if you went to PvP since this patch today, the Cyrodiil crash problem was not fixed. Folks are still crashing.

That I cannot speak to. But you noted that the info wasn't in the patch notes, which it was.

Good hunting, if you can stay connected.

Actually we just all crashed, but it was like 100 players in 1 keep XD

Thunderclap

yeah no crashed, but lag for flag turning, door repairing, endless loading when use TS etc.

Three crashes in one hour @ZOS_GinaBruno. Seems like nothing is resolved with the patch.

PC EU - still got the crashes. On top of that, the keeps and map are taking a while to register after flipping and I'm also getting unusually (for me, I don't play in a group) long loading screens.

Seems good Zos, seems good... /s

Hexys

@ZOS_GinaBruno We just crashed 2 times in 10 minutes. Same as before incremental. Hope you gonna have a fix in place for monday.

The patch made things much worse: entire raids of people crashing in cyrodil on a regular basis @ZOS_GinaBruno

Thunderclap

@Hexys : Nikel PC Eu Kaal....? Confirm.

Heresyall

crashed 4 times in 30 min btw

MLRPZ

Nice fix ZOS still crashing

FakeZavos

4 times in 30 minutes. In different keeps, fighting different people. Honestly ZOS @ZOS_GinaBruno

Hexys

The game is just so disappointing and it gets worse over time. So many things that are triggering in ESO. Crashes, lagg, streakbug, aurora javelin stun unbreakable half of the time.

And many major ability bugs takes months to be fixed, bugs coming back after a few patches it's just sad.

So much potential, so little care.

This is the players fault as much as ZOS.

Stop Sub, CS shopping, buying xpacs, & buying crowns w/in-game gold.

This doesn't work, though. The more decline in player base they see, the less resources they will funnel into a dying product. You're not going to motivate a business to spend more money by withholding funds. They aren't a child you can manipulate by cutting off their allowance. As long as their marketing department is luring in enough to new customers to replace the frustrated players leaving for a better gaming experience, they will continue to invest a minimum amount of funds and labor into keeping the servers turned on and somewhat functional, while they focus on their new (and potentially more profitable) products.

6 crashes now , unplayable

FakeZavos

5th time

TFPAcer

Was fine yesterday, only 1 crash. Today, 6+ crashes in 30m.

ManwithBeard9

Boy am I glad they rushed the patch out to make sure this crashing issue got fixed.

And again, it will take ages before that you communicate something @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom @ZOS_BrianWheeler

JackDaniell

Lol like anything will change and we wont see this same post again next year...

It seems the crash reporter was nerfed too. Just a few days ago I had 14 crashes in one day, and every time I was able to log a crash report because the crash reporter popped up. Since yesterdays patch, I've crashed 9 times, however the crash reporter has only popped up on 2 of those, so I've only been able to log 2 crash reports.

The "crash" is prob happening because there is too many people fighting in the area. Something like this has happened a few times in the past with Cyrodiil, there servers have always had a hard time managing the stress in the area. So, it's really not surprising anymore when i hear people crashing in the area.

technohic

I have not had the crash to desktop all weekend. Hope they figure out the rest of you. Pretty crazy that I was happy to have the old laggy server of pre Elswyr. Maybe that's their plan.

Anyron

Hm.. EU pc - Yesterday (sunday) i played pvp in evening for maybe 3-4 hours and no crash for me and friend

LoreToo

+5 crashes on past Saturday (in 2,5 hours).
@ZOS_GinaBruno adress this to dev team: they hadn'd fix problem on Friday. If its pets.....well its time to disable them after 5 years

Hexys

@ZOS_GinaBruno So far we stopped using the spirit guardian from necro and crashed way less. I'm not sure if it is the reason but it feels like it.

Revokus

Been crashing in battlegrounds still not fixed and I use spirit guardian.

barney2525

the fix is coming soon

what else you want for Christmas... in 2024 ?

As long as the Crown Store hasn't stopped working properly. That would be the true disaster.

Observing the patterns of the company and being a long-term supporter of Bethesda products, one starts to see that the game's depth is lost to the companies monetization systems when they have such a gem with ESO that is losing it's polish and luster because of them. When you're a new player, you don't see all this and everything seems incredibly great and wonderful, but that is gradually lost and overtaken by seeing what this game is about the more you play it. I hate to bring it up, but let's think a moment the reasons why WoW was so successful for so many years, think about what the developer priorities were back then: the player experience. Fast forward to 2019 and the undeniable mess of loot boxes and microtransactions have completely ruined or severely impacted the quality of games new and old, but that's where the problem stops for the company because the success of the money still funnels in, even more so. The quality isn't there anymore. Therein lies the exact problem. How can something succeed longterm this way? Nowadays, priorities are on shallow and expungeable products that can be quickly monetized upon and easily replaced if need be by the next hyped up corporate product train. One fails, a new one is implemented in it's place, and so on.

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

Let's also not forget the reason why they are able to make money from this and other games which in turn allows employees to have a successful career, HINT: It's us, the players. Lose that and what's left? We are literally the foundation you have built your empire on, shouldn't it be a solid one? Money may always be the motivator, but the player should always be the focus. I don't think I have to remind any gaming company out there in 2019 that the entire industry is on very shaky ground right now, it's a bad time to forget to take care of the most important aspects. The sad part is the most severe impact is going to be on new players, which should always come into a game welcomed with a positive experience, not the opposite.

Speaking towards the entirety of Bethesda/ZOS as a whole, we the player in your communities are literally spending countless hours and days pleading with you and asking for resolution and actual positive outcomes with little to nothing in response and return. Players should be your #1 valued investment, it sure doesn't feel that way anymore and that's definitely not something that should be ignored.

Seems to me their business plan was actually making players leave and having new players take their place. At least the scaling seems to support that anyway. They didn't count on that so many of us would stick around to be thanked for our patience...

What the two of you are describing is exactly what I and others predicted way back when they first introduced the crown store and microtransactions. This is the norm for the free to play, "churn" model. This is not a surprise, we've known it was coming all along.

Actually, ESO has done better at this than most games.
