Strange type of lag

MikeSkyrim333

After the patch I got strange type of lag: at the time of the death of any creature (mob, player, world boss) I have a freeze for approximately 0,5 second. FPS show - 60, but it practically 0, cause its freezes. So in the dungeon, when tons of mobs dying I have a freaking slide show, cause every death freeze the game. Never had such lag before the patch. I reinstalled WIndows, deleted and downloaded game, but it remains.............

I'm getting a different, more global kind of lag tonight. E.g., it can take multiple seconds to call a horse, let alone fire a skill or whatever. This is generally near antiquities dig sites, because that's where I've been playing. It peaked for me at a site near Delyn's Mill.

I suspect what you're seeing is related to this:

"Tomorrow morning beginning at 2am EDT, we’ll be taking the PC NA and EU megaservers offline for maintenance to apply a hotfix.

With the launch of Greymoor and Update 26, we identified an issue where the more people that logged into an area in the game, the longer it would take for abilities to fire off or other combat-related actions to complete (such as Light/Heavy attacks, mounting/dismounting, etc). This hotfix should greatly improve these situations where combat or abilities don’t appear to work properly, or where your latency meter would display some considerably high numbers. Please note that until this maintenance begins, you will continue to see issues with unresponsive combat on PC NA and EU."

I’ve been playing since Beta and have never seen this kind of weird lag, even in Cyrodiil

I had a rather strange one myself last night, while waiting for things to kick off at a dolmen i got out the lute and played it for maybe 2 mins.. put it away and it continued to play even when the battle started the lute was playing as well as getting all the battle sounds.. only stopped after i logged my character out and back in again. Edit as i had Flute not Lute Lol

In reality they want to say this:

"Tomorrow morning beginning at 2am EDT, we’ll be taking the PC NA and EU megaservers offline for maintenance to reduce our electricity bills.

With the launch of Greymoor and Update 26, we know that we have an issue where the more people that logged into an area in the game, the longer it would take for abilities to fire off or other combat-related actions to complete (such as Light/Heavy attacks, mounting/dismounting, etc). We won't do anything to improve these situations where combat or abilities don’t appear to work properly, or where your latency meter would display some considerably high numbers. Please note that until this maintenance begins and right after, you will continue to see issues with unresponsive combat on PC NA and EU."

We ran Sunspire yesterday and were haunted by the constant dragon roaring even after he was long dead. Drove me almost nuts.

Glenumbra was amazingly awful & all I did was try to move a few steps to talk to the boat captains. Mentioned it to guildies, who all said it had been so bad that they left & weren't going back any time soon. Then I made the mistake of going to Auridon...

@Foggy_Atsea & @mikikatze A lot of people have been mentioning that sounds continue long after they should have stopped &/or just loop over & over & over again. I'm guessing it's some sort of desync but I'm no programmer so I could be way wrong lol.

Why on earth would you reinstall windows and re-download the game for something that with a little bit of questioning of the masses who play could have told you that its everyone getting the same issues? seems extreme to me to be taking such a drastic and rather desperate step.
