    I hate how hyperbole is so overused these days....

    Because you picking up flowers have no issues in "PvE" it doesn't mean it's not affected. Trial groups have same issues to.

    Strawpersons are also rather overused these days... *sigh*

    It's an assumption, not strawman, I didn't implied you said anything like that, if you want to insult me at least make it right. This was an assumption because if you play in prime time, any content requiring using skills is affected and can feel the lag and delays, and if you don't see any issues options are 2, you're not playing in prime time or you just RP etc.

    No, it's a strawman lol. It's not an assumption, assumptions aren't absolutes but you're talking like they are.

    "A straw man (or strawman) is a form of argument and an informal fallacy based on giving the impression of refuting an opponent's argument, while actually refuting an argument that was not presented by that opponent.[1] One who engages in this fallacy is said to be "attacking a straw man".

    You have no idea what a strawman is, please don't use words you don't understand. Still you didn't said anything about what do you do, when on what platform?

    Niche? I think you underestimate the size of the pvp crowd. Either way, why not acknowledge it's not working and be sympathetic rather trolling.

    I think you might be overestimating the size of the PvP crowd. Barely able to maintain more than 1 campaign.

    The game as a whole isn’t broken or unplayable.

    PC EU. We have 2 usually fully locked campaigns (cp faction locked and noCP) and IC usally at 2 sometimes even 3 bars.

    "Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 24 DLCs. 40 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game." - @AlexanderDeLarge

    Make sure you write what platform you're playing. Believe it or not, it actually makes a difference. If you just make blanket statements nothing is going to change.

    Kind of like how you assume that pvp is the only part of the game affected by this? This crap happens even in dungeons all the time now. I also notice a lot of it when doing overland stuff. The ONLY place where I don't see any of these issues is when I'm doing housing stuff.

    Even the damned chatbox has been laggy as hell. I sent a message to a friend, and it didn't go through so I typed it again...went through instantly. Proceeded to have an entire conversation and the first message I sent went through 10 minutes later. This game is falling apart.

    Still no answers from zos?
    players position desyncs is a big problem (i need to aim slightly to the right to activate skill ).

    Although ofc there are other delays on pvp primetime :/

    I get 90-100 FPS and the game still performs like I get 10 FPS sometimes.
    Playing your character the way your character should play is all that matters. Play as well as you can but never betray the character. Doing so would make playing an mmoRPG pointless.

    Don't forget the Bank, Guild Bank and Guild Store depositing and withdrawing and selling items takes time to register. Sometimes it has taken 30 seconds for a deposit or withdrawal to register so I can move on to the next deposit or withdrawal. Same thing with Guild Stores.

    It isn't just in Cyrodil. It's in PVE as well.

    It’s not trolling to take issue with those who blow things out of proportion instead of reporting them accurately. Though I suppose it’s possible you have a very low bar for what you consider “trolling.”

    I’m sick to death of folks going “derp, game broken” when it isn’t. That isn’t helpful to the developers in doing bug fixing, and it is flatly inaccurate. Be specific about *what* is not working and in what contexts. Enough of this nonsense hyperbole. At least be bothered to specify “this is PvP Cyrodill only.”

    Pve is messed up room I guess that's niche too?

    ESO is not ideal that's true ... , but its still paradise of stability and no bugs compare to Fallout 76..

    Yeah, before the recent catastrophic changes to the game PvP on pceu was constantly full. This is what we call cause and effect. Numbers are dropping rapidly because of the awful performance.

    I think what I described is pretty accurate. Have you seen pvp? specially on console?

    That’s not really the point. The point is comparing this game as a whole to something like F76 because Cyrodill PvP has issues is misguided at best. Look, I get it’s frustrating, but be accurate in describing issues instead of “game broken” or “game like (insert favorite trash title here)” when most of the game is nothing of the sort. If I had a dollar for every false case of “game broken” ... the hyperbole these days...

    Seriously, get a new PC if your framerates are that bad. ZOS cant upgrade your videocard/CPU and your fps is on you
    Happened before update 25
    Happened before update 25 (also no one cares)
    Crownstore is a menu, of course it works, it's not as complex as the game world.
    Game works for people that have upgraded beyond Windows 95

    Im not in pc im in console. Yes you are right all of this started happening in console even before update 25, it started right after the midyear mayhem finished. We got zero response from zos after a month. Update 25 just exacerbated the problems even more and still no response from them. Even PC has these issues now trickling in. Regardless of how powerful a rig is, PVP and PVE trials has the same issues as console with skill delays.

    So you're complaining about performance but you're on a console. I think I found the problem lol

    Funny how other games work on consoles, yet ESO is the exception, ok.
