I have no idea what this is all about

That is completely true, from a certain point of view. Those characters won't be able to move or use abilities, but they can be on the screen.

Normally I'd agree but to be honest in trials sometimes we struggle just having 12 characters on screen at the same time.

Haha, long time ago, before all those costumes and coloring was a thing, all those bling bling mounts with huge effekts when spawning and before every character did have another pet around him... there is a reason why some guilds raid as skeletons. i do remember when the dro mathra senche came and cyrodiil started having short lag spikes each time someone close to me spawned his senche mount.

You are correct, note that this is an client issue, the mount you use is only an id on server.

Am i the only one not having these issues? I've been playing ESO for a short while, but i have never experienced any lags whatsoever. Nada. Not in bg's, not in Imperial City, not in the open world. And i've been in places where there were more than a hundred characters running around AND npc's.

I am aware

Beta times were insane, 60 fps with hundreds of horses on screen, that was insane...

LOL I wonder what would ZOS devs say if they had to make a video like that nowadays

And sound definitely won't work at all.....

I'm power levelling a warden healer during the event to take advantage of 2xp. I haven't had sound since I parked him at a dolmen in Alik'r

LordArconSeptim

That tells you all how they had plans about the game future, more dlcs, more cosmetics more Microsoft and EA games

Part of this is your expectations for responsiveness. There's a legitimate point where the lag that experienced players are talking about is something that a new player might simply chalk up to the game being an MMO. When you get into weaving, and top tier DPS, you'll become aware of times when the game is lagging out, or simply not behaving itself, but that you would be completely oblivious to right now.

This wouldn't be an issue, except that PvP, and DLC vet content has very harsh demands, and the lag runs up against that.

It's mostly in Cyrodil where the lag takes place in my experience.

Battlegrounds, Imperial City and the landscape content rarely lag for me. But in Cyrodil it can be brutal sometimes - especially when Fengrush and his blue swarm show up.

Game should have been kept performance wise as it were 7 years ago

Maybe, if we photoshop them in
