R.I.P. PC EU

EmEm_Oh

I had to log off Cyro, and I'm on PC NA. My lag was around 400-999. Couldn't defend myself worth a crap, and I'm sure others who landed hits were like, "Oh wow. I got lucky!"

I walked past the ice dragon area in southern Elsryr the other night, was not even in the arena, suddenly got blue death recap screen, game is just a mess.

PC EU PvP - unplayable starting at 15:00.
PC EU raid SS: unplayable...

Game: uninstalled.

Ye_Olde_Crowe

Booted up and jumped right in to aid another player in PvE. On a Saturday night, which should be prime time.

No problem whatsoever.

Perhaps y'all should play on 12 year old systems with an average of 7 (in a busy town) to 35 (when in a player home) FPS...

Meanwhile the game has just tonight hit another all-time record for peak players on Steam, at just over 47K.

woufff

A bit more loading screens, that's all. Tried PC NA - even worse

The crawling death achievement - die because of lag 1000 times. PC EU exclusive coming with special reward - slime pet called Pcervereu

Loading screens are buffed again.

Tried to exit Sugar Bowl Suite to N. Elsweyr. My patience ended before the loadscreen and I just killed the client.

Curious_Death

I did my homework:

each time u change zone : server gives u different channel - each channel have different end number of IP ex. xxx.xx.xxx.101 in craglorn then u go to grahtwood : xxx.xx.xxx.105 - sometimes u get delayed this process or channel is full and client waits for another channel - it takes 4 min? 10 min? or u wont get new coz client stuck at waiting.

ALSO:

New patch broke gameplay - overloaded servers (actual situation when every1 is at home) now have more things to do and client less - so FPS went up... but server hamsters re getting exhausted - we get delayed information about our position... and we reply also delayed... so WHOLE gameplay is delayed... i have records of my gameplay ofc in our flawless cyrodiil : where players just teleport and i cannot hit them... then server just teleport me to my position from 5-10 seconds!!! i was hit by templar beam from +70 meters!!! (rly fun animation).

PVP alliance locked 30 day CP is 'unplayable'...yes it's to that point.

Confinement or no confinement it was like this already...
RIP PC EU server since 'a long time'.

Weirdest thing is: not one word in weeks from ZOS about how their going to fix or even IF their know how to fix it (not talking about "we know" stuff). unbelievable

I think they'll just shut down PC EU at some point, Poe....what's the point?

They did an ESO live recently with a blue haired girl (player I believe, sorry I don't remember her name)...well she got endless loading screens (it was a Bethesda live)...I don't know if I arrived late, but it ended at that point with the young woman saying : 'It must be my connection!' *her stream and voice were fine*.

Cronopoly

At 3pm NA Xbox is the same, completely full. Cannot login at all. Same every day since everyone is at home.

@ZOS_GinaBruno is there any "Zone Flex" IE growth available to handle capacity at your colocation? We know your team knows the capacity issues... Is there any word for the community, or no word?

Khatou

Do you also have pings from space? I normally turn around 80, but right now my ping is playing yo-yo 120/500/999 it goes up and down etc etc etc really fed up with this studio unable to manage 1 MMORPG...

There are 48,360 players in the game at the moment, yet another peak record, and a fair share of them will be on the PC EU server, that's the point. Not everyone has problems, and hopefully those who do will get some resolution soon, but the idea of the server being shut down is absurd.

Tsunahmie

umm retunring player here... pvper… wot a mess mate aye. Playin in the no cp campaign (cause my noob ass was away 3 years I only got 450) anyways.

I keep dying cause I can't swap weapon bars lol, press 10 times and rubberbanding right back into things, doesn't matter if I'm fighting one player or in the middle of a zerg, both ain't working. how are people even playing pvp rn? xD cause I sure as hell can't!

Khatou

to be heard, maybe everyone should stop thinking about their crowns and unlimited crafting bag and stop spending all their money on this studio to let the rumble of the EU players be heard, for this studio that clearly doesn't give a *** about anything that happens on the EU server!!!

If you're not for this idea, stop complaining here and don't believe the director's letters, it's just a piece of wind, the proof is that nothing has changed since each letter he wrote to us

ESO Steam population is only roughly 5% of ESO player base(my estimation).
Most players use the official ZOS client.
It is likely there are 967K players in the game at the moment, more or less.

Thanks for clarifying that, I should have made it clear I was referring to the Steam players on PC.

Thought it was Monday yesterday, these never ending pajamas days are taking a toll on my sense of time, but today I’ve double checked - it’s monday!

I hope that today is the day something good is coming our way.....

Unless I'm mistaken, you've admitted several times to not doing trials/vet group dungeons or PvP. I'm sorry, but what works for you cannot be the baseline for all, or even most, players. I still run into visual bugs, the odd missed bar swap, laggy skills and whatnot while doing quests. But the same issues, alongside lag, fps drops and outright disconnections of entire groups, make group content extremely frustrating.

ZOS have removed the "paying customer" defense by making subscriptions and clown purchases optional (no, I don't think the initial purchase is enough to entitle you to expect ongoing maintenance and development). So now we take what we get and can't complain. I personally no longer subscribe, have mostly only been doing events, and haven't pre-purchased the next chapter. I don't know if I will, in fact, given the lack of actual improvement, for all the talk about performance improvement plans we've been getting (hint: in actual fact, all of ZOS' communication has been limited to non-committal updates of half a dozen bullet points that have remained largely the same for going on a year).

Dear diary, the servers sucked again today.

Indeed.
I just tried to do simple crafting writs but the game crashed.
Earlier I tried to do some dps parses on a target dummy but the lag is too great, I'm missing like 50% of my potential DPS

Tandor

Are those people struggling with crafting writs using crafting add-ons? I don't use add-ons and had no problem with writs during the recent event either on PC EU or NA, and there did seem to be one helluva lot of crafting writs being handed in throughout that event.

Celephantsylvius_Bornasfinmo

PC EU really does need some love.

Something has to change rapidly to increase the fluidity of the connection to the server. It has been going on for far too long now. I'm not sure if figure wise we don't represent enough people to create an incentive to invest in the server, but we are still invested players ourselves. Would be nice to have transparency on why the EU server has so many issues whilst NA seems to mosey on by most of the time.

This has nothing to do with addons - what usually happens is that you just get randomly disconnected if you are anywhere near the crafting area, probably because there are too many players for the server to handle.

I've had such disconnects (as well as huge, 999+ lag spikes) happen frequently by merely standing in the crafting area, not even interacting with any of the crafting tables. And no, it was not an AFK kick, either.

FWIW, this does not appear to be an issue on PC-NA:
I've been deconstructing a lot of items and doing writs (with crafting addons) during the anniversary event, and experienced exactly 0 issues there. Using the same exact addon loadout as I was on PC-EU.
