OMG Cyrodil Hype Is Real

Thought I’d go in and get a taste. Multiple threads on here about performance, so thought I’d jump in and take a look.
All I can say is omg. It’s so bad, my guy with dizzy swing just stayed there with the sword over his shoulder while the npc’s killed me. No cancelling will save you. I was like wtf lol I’m dying to resource guards.
No amount of steamers or you tubers can cover this up. Cyridill is garbage. There is no performance improvement. Any video or stream you see from pvp land is prob the one where nobody goes to.
I was laughing so hard dying to guards while my guy stood there not moving lol.

    Yes, cyrodiil has always laggy especially during weekends but it has been more laggy since last update. We have to press ability several times before it goes off. Even mount can take a few second now.

    Outside weekend and primetime its a bit better but overall its more laggy compared to few weeks ago.

    Yup, Cyrodiil is unplayable.
    Wanna cast a skill? Maybe bar swap? You can go grab something to drink meanwhile.
    Random or endless loading screen? Go watch a movie, you might get hit by another 2 loading screens after the first one.
    But don't worry, you won't die as much as you might think because everyone is having the same issues.

    PS: I downloaded the 85gb patch in less than 2 hours, my internet is fine.

    The amount of times I have d ied from not being able to bar swap, use heals, use shields, use streak, use stealth, use break free, use snare removal is absolutely absurd. .-.

    The only time I died in Cyro yesterday (and BELIEVE ME, I wasn’t there long lol). My toon just keeled over and died. Two addons tracking K&D’s didn’t indicate anything. As far as they were concerned “zero deaths”.

    It was odd. I was probably alive on the servers doing something else lol.

    Last week during duels people would say that I had stopped moving but I was still doing skills in one spot near them. To me I was yards away from them watching them do skills to empty air. I was still taking damage. Then, I’d crash. The games broken...

    Atm you are more likely to die taking a home keep resource than running through a whole zerg of players. Players can't hit you -npcs can.

    If that happens, don't stop rotating, you will get a "Macro Slice" (named after a similar case where you could provoke a splitsecond of all your attacks, done over the last few seconds, hitting at once) out of it, if the server realizes that you fought (In case you didn't die before).

    Looks kinda like that
    Fengrush has a few videos about those as well.

    Well as pve player I've lot of thing I would love to be fixed and aren't since it's added to the game ;)
    Don't act like snowflake, way to much part of this game need bug-fix and perf update fix.

    But with the time I just accepted they'r just not good enough for this stuff so I've stopped to hopping and worry about it.
    I still get fun with friend and when it's become boring I play something else.
    And if another good MMORPG release then I'll just switch.

    I don't have play any MMORPG that doesn't have some issue, but clearly this one is really bad in perf and bug.

    My current chief amusement is attacking an NPC at an objective and counting the seconds before any damage registers on them and then they suddenly drop from full health to half/one-quarter health in an instant.

    I like to imagine the NPC being like:
    "I'm doing great! Wow, this MagDK sucks."
    "Augh! It burns! Help, I Need HEALING!!!"

    ZOS, when even your NPCs are experiencing health desyncs...

    Less funny when it happens to YOU.
    "WTF, this enemy player is just running around me in circles and not doing anything..."
    "Press E to choose a respawn location."

    I'm a little more used to it happening to me than happening to my enemies actually, since I've always tended to get hit a little harder by the lag and desyncs than most of the friends I play with. Rubberbanding across the battlefield is particularly "fun." Perils of living next to a bean field across from a corn field with decidedly rural internet, I guess :)

    I don't think it has anything to do with user hardware or internet connection. Or at least there's no logical correlation.
    In the guild which I used to raid with, I was always hit the hardest by lag/desyncs and disconnects, even though I have a very good connection and decent hardware (well above the "recommended" spec for ESO).

    It's "better", alright... this time it did not even take 3 minutes until the first disconnect, and there were only a few enemy players around.

    That tells me everything I needed to know about today's patch "improvements". :D

    Every patch performance gets worse, a trend that has been happening for years now, ignore anything they say about performance improvements - if its a patch then performance will get worse. FACT.
