Thoughts on Performance after the Incremental Patch

CatastrophicSuccess

It's still early and no where near prime time but my initial impression after an hour this morning is that the incremental patch helped pretty significantly. There are still some issues with pots not going off but for the most part input lag has definitely improved for me. It feels roughly like pre update 25 with slightly more stable fps and faster load times when refreshing addons, for example.

It's definitely going to take more testing to tell for sure but so far its seems like ZOS delivered with this one. That being said, this was under ideal conditions with only 3 and 2 bar pops in Cyrodiil and there's still plenty more work to be done. I'm curious to see what it's going to be like tonight during prime time...

What are your thoughts on the post incremental performance?

Crushed twice already :yey:

I just had skills failing to fire repeatedly in a group dungeon. Animations would start and get cancelled long before the skills go off, this lasted for several seconds in a row. In Cyrodiil I expect stuff like this, but never seen it in a group dungeon before. Hopefully it was a one off thing and not related to the new patch.

I commend your persistence - personally I ALT+F4'ed after the first disconnect today, at this point I just don't have any patience left for this crap anymore.

It was OK in bgs for a few hours today which was glorious, now the servers have descended into some of the worst performance I have ever seen. Basically start looking for a new game people.

Logged into cyrodil, getting on horse animation takes 7 seconds to complete, ride to keep fight, lose connection, can't get back into the game on that character.

Same experience. Seemed slightly better until primetime where it just fell apart again. Its the worst I've seen the game since 1.2 patch in regards to performance.

Incredibly sad because every day this goes on the game loses players.

Stutter is still there like before - i guess nothing was done to deal with it.

Yeah although Cyro was better this morning and BGs seemed to have improved as well its clear there still plenty of work to do... It's brutal out there right now

Hopefully there's at least more small improvements coming before Greymoor and nothing as bad as what came with update 25 again.

Sunspire just now: My abilities refused to fire, mobs and players were freezing constantly and I crashed repeatedly. The last time I tried to log back in, there was a popup telling me that I needed an internet connection. I have 800MB down and 12MB up as we speak. I'm going to play something else for the next week until this is sorted...

Played 9hr today no lag no crashes but I didn't pvp.

Very bad, slightly better than last week, still worse than before U25.

Stealth lag is still pretty bad as well as launching skills

I've noticed improvement myself, I also opened the recommended ports and made an exception for eso64.exe with my firewall, dunno if that could help others.
