Crash to desktop

    (PS4) During the last two days my game locks up randomly playing almost any dungeon. It doesn't crash the game, just locks up on one screen and waits for me to kill the game.

    Just for today I've had this issue in Wayrest Sewers II, Fang Layer, City of Ash I & II.

    Dragonhold still crashing. Thought maybe my settings too high so reduced to medium but no help just being in Dragonhold now seems to cause a crash. I was in Dragonhold started to report bug and halfway through CRASH back to desktop.
    This time ported out of Dragonhold and then submitted a crash report.

    Game playing normally in Summerset so maybe just Dragonhold is a problem.

    Who's got LEGACY titles!?

    ▪︎Tick Tock Tormentor
    ▪︎Dawnbringer
    ▪︎Godslayer

    As far as I've seen lately with crashes and blue screens every 0-8mins in trials. these titles are now 100% unattainable.

    What is the ETA on this fix ZOS?? Its been weeks. Were all paying for an online subscription to a game that by all accounts does not work unless you want to farm resource nodes (and even then it crashes).

    This *should* be the highest priority and all we've heard is "were looking into it".

    PS5 NA here, I crash in delves, just trying to loot containers. Crashing just walking around overland. Game would be awesome, the PS5 can really handle the graphics in a way the PS4 couldn't, but I can't stay in the game long enough to enjoy it.

    This only started since the patch about 2 weeks ago. I've never crashed to desktop before. And I've been playing since Beta.

    Still Crashing to desktop. 2 of our 12 crashed to desktop during Hel Ra Citidel, and 3 more crashed on Aetherian Archive. I was one of the 3 that crashed during AA and it was during the fight on the last boss in AA. I wasn't able to complete the quest because of it.

    I crashed the other day in the middle of digging up an antiquity. For real? Common.

    Irritating. Please fix this.

    Someone. Anyone. Update please

    I've already cancelled my sub since this isn't being taken seriously.
    Holidays and all, I get delays there, but this has been going on for two weeks and all we get is referred here for a non-informational "we're looking into it" from a week ago.

    Don't refer us to a thread for more info if you're not going to provide it

    With all of this info, there still isn't enough to implement a fix for next week? How are they going to run an event that has is diving into dungeons when their dungeons are causing people to be ejected from the game?

    Hey all, thanks for these reports. We are looking into this. If you play on PC and crashed without the send report option popping up, it would be helpful for us to get more information from you so we can investigate further. If you happen to remember where you were on the map (or in the dungeon, trial, etc.) or what you were doing please let us know.

    PCNA.

    Crashed over 20 times I guess, in Cyrodiil, since update 28. The game suddenly freezed and I was kicked from the game. Usually there's a system message like "an error occurred, please log in later".

    Most of the crashes happened when I was taking keeps and usually when our alliance almost conquered the keeps.

    I lost large amount of AP because the crashes happened before scoring and I couldn't log in for a few minutes (with error message: already logged in).

    Sometimes I was not fighting but walked slowly, but the game still crashed.

    Most of the time the system didn't show any error reports. I already sent system error reports when available.

    Update of my situation:

    The game still crashed often in Cyrodiil, and terrible response delays occurred. Sometimes 5 or 6 clicks were needed to cast my skills, especially ultimates, in Cyrodiil. Usually the icons blinked when I press keyboard buttons but the skills couldn't be casted.

    This doesn't happen outside PvP zones. Obviously something wrong with PvP zones especially Cyrodiil.

    Crashs are less frequent now compare with the previous weeks but still often.
    No improvement on Cyrodill servers -> no ESO plus renewal.

    My first thing to do was a BG. Got good even teams. Played quite well. The total disppointment was to crash just before the end. Can you fix the game? if so move and hurry the effort. I am quite disatisfied as a customer.

    Crash to desktop 5 times in 40 minutes this morning, and it was 8-9am eastern with no population lock for any faction. Then there was the lag which made bar swap very challenging, rubberbanding, etc., all the "normal" bugs are worse too.

    There. Fixed that for you. :p
    Imho, this is the what the result of "quantity over quality" being the generalized approach at "success" with ESO is.

    vAA 2-3 crashes on the large trash group getting outside including this one, no other crashes.
    Now did nAA as part of an normal trial marathon 2 weeks ago who did not look to have issues.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    The problems aren't just crashing to the desktop. I get a bunch of other problems like getting booted from the server for no good reason. The answer that the problems are on my end is denying the problem with the server side.

    So, yesterday I posted in this thread:
    The crash to desktop has been happening in Cyrodiil (I'm trying to get Rapids back). Every single time it happens, I'm in the middle of a keep battle with players and NPC's running about.

    Happened again to me this afternoon, so many times that I lost count of crashes. Never during PVE content like town dailies. Never during PVP battles out in the wilderness. Always during a battle for a keep or outpost. Every single time. At least I finally got one character's Rapids back. Nine to go...uuuugggggggh.

    Additionally, the resource bug was worse than ever today. Every time I went into sneak mode in the Cyrodiil overworld while I was doing my town dailies, my stamina would almost instantly drop from 100% to 0% without me moving, forcing me out of sneak for no reason. Health would randomly appear to not regen for long periods of time. Magicka seemed to be okay. I didn't notice these issues inside of delves.

    The hard freeze always happens during excavations, when I try to use a fully charged Heavy Shovel II. The first use of the shovel works fine, but when it tries to do the second dig, I get the hard freeze. It's like it's such a swift action animation that it breaks normally slow ESO's brain.

    Meanwhile, as I was repeatedly crashing in Cyrodiil today, my partner was doing excavations because he had a bunch of leads he needed to pick up. Guess whose game froze so hard during the use of a fully charged Heavy Shovel II that he had to force-reboot his whole computer, just like me on my computer when I get this glitch.

    Alliance agnostic: all factions should chill the fetch out and party together.
    If you ever wonder why certain official fandom spaces are so often toxic and awful, remember: corruption starts from the top. And if you don't want me to call you out for being terrible, maybe you should consider not being terrible. ^^v
