Concerned about the Undaunted Event coming up on PS4

big_ear_midget

With the Undaunted event starting on 25th November, and the next console incremental patch scheduled for 2nd December I was just wondering what contingency plans does ZOS have in place to allow console users to partake in the event except for the last week only? I'm sure that ZOS as a company has had discussions about this and could they please inform the console community so we can make plans accordingly.

@ZOS_GinaBruno

Thank you for your time.

They did went ahead with an Undaunted event while the Group Finder was basically not working at all.

Pretty sure they will just wing it this time like they've done before and still go ahead with the event (and promote it!) while half the dungeons can't even be properly completed.

Didn't they postpone it last time? I can't remember what wound up happening.

They gave it few more days, but thing is, the gonna make undaunted event when people are crashing in every second dungeon... And pretty sure it won't even on pc in time for the event.

Don't worry, the most recent PC patch didn't fix the crashing and such in dungeons anyway. You're not missing much by not having it yet.

Actually we all could forecast what's gonna happen atm

I talked to my guild leader yesterday , I'm not gonna raiding until blue screen bug is fixed .

Guess I will be back on March 2021 , depends on ZOS

Add xbox to the list, dungeon finder breaks for us too. Lots of mentions in these forums, but haven’t seen any acknowledgement.

Xbox NA

i believe with the previous undaunted event, when they realized the dungeon finder was broke, they cancelled the event and it was rescheduled for January.

My plans are just to play a little safer in dungeons in the event other players crash while fighting a boss.

Been in dungeons the last few days with an average of at least 2 crashes per dungeon. At times the entire team crashed. Luckily it did not kick use entirely and we were able to restart where we all crashed.

Twice I was the only person left and had to solo the boss. Thus, the playing a little more safely.

Be safe and have fun

Just remember, if you are able to complete a dungeon, leave instance before queueing for another, or queue will brake. Also may have to play hot potato with crown a few times, or it'll break(Unable to queue, leave, or disband). Have fun

PS4 NA player here - I really hope they cancel or postpone the undaunted event. I have yet to be in a dungeon where I don’t freeze/get stuck/blue screen. It makes for an incredibly frustrating experience when you go to get a clear but can’t get a hit in on the boss cause your game keeps crashing so then you don’t get credit for the kill and can’t complete the dungeon. Group finder is also busted - tried to do a random dungeon with a full group and the queue took 10 minutes to let us in! Dungeons are just too broken right now to have an entire event revolved around them.

Is Fungal Grotto 1 playable?

Queue finder is broken as hell again right now. I'm worried what this event will do on PC, especially EU servers. I think the same will happen this year.

Has a good chance of being a CTD fest (event) on all platorms at present...

Yeah. It's what I plan to grind if they decide to go through with it for some god awful reason. That and the other dungeons for the opal styles assuming they don't break.

Leeching Plate on tanks helps a lot, specially on normals.

I had a few of those crashes and a few times I didn't die (so the fight didn't reset) because of Leeching and my teammates had time to come back and kill the boss before being locked again. In one instance Leeching slowly killed the boss even when I was locked.

They won't cancel or postpone because it's a over event....... They canceled midyear mayham no problem "due to disconnect, crashing, and que not working" but yet full go on the over event......

This is the exact reason I stopped playing it's pathetic.

I'll probably not waste my time doing another buggy event.

They should move New Life up and then do Undaunted. Yes, New Life is year end, but November is close enough and New Life would be mostly fine with a broken game.

big_ear_midget

@ZOS_GinaBruno can we please have an official comment regarding this? The event is now only 6 days away.

I'm trying to stay optimistic about this event but the silence we are being greeted with is causing me concern that nothing will be done.

EvilAutoTech

Just start New Life on the 25th and let it run until January. I got over 100 characters that have not done the new Imperial quest.

What is an 'over event' ?

Since they have shut down the event in the past, the track record is that the event Can be postponed if they deem it necessary.

Undaunted, Undaunted, We are Und----

Aww, blue screen

Calm_Fury

Undaunted event is also probably the easiest to move.

Witche's is tied to real-life Halloween, New Life to real-life new year and the DLC/Chapter celebrations tided to their release dates.

Undaunted is just an arbitrary event so it wouldn't hurt to move. And they should. About 20% of randoms now is one of the buggy dungeons that can't be completed or are really hard to complete due to crashes.

According to the marketing email I just received, it’s not starting until December 3rd now.

#TamrielTogether also features a host of in-game events, including the Undaunted Celebration starting Dec 3rd and the New Life Festival starting Dec 17th. Come celebrate our Tamriel—together.

We did it. The system works.

Except event will be shorter now. Less than half as long as previously announced. Unless it's going to extend past the 8th and run right up to New Life. I was looking forward to a longer event but now it'll be the usual short duration. While that's probably best considering the state of dungeons right now, it's disappointing that this event is always half as long as any other.

Dracane

So it was postponed until after the next maintenance. Everyone can calm down.

We have made the decision to officially move the upcoming Undaunted Celebration event, and it will now begin December 3 at 10AM EST and run until December 15 at 10AM EST. This change will allow the team to make several fixes to help dungeon performance and stability that will be implemented as part of the upcoming PC/Mac and console incremental patches.
