Cyrodiil Performance - 5/7/2022

The_Lex

So, I’m usually very openly critical of PvP performance in ESO. But credit where credit is due. Performance in prime time, pop-locked Cyrodiil tonight felt better than it has in a looong time. Well done! But don’t rest yet! There’s still much to be done, but you’re headed in the right direction. Keep it up, ZOS.

Just to add: it wasn’t perfect, but it was better than it has been in a long while.

We just had a hammer fight at Alessia with nearly 200 players and I was ABLE to cast my skills reliably.

I'm utterly flabbergasted by this.

I had only one disconnect when going to a keep, however, I think that is still a lingering problem that I hope ZOS can fix soon.

Yep, primetime Grey Host was flawless for me as far as skill lag goes.

I assume they had to claim the hardware stuff would have no server performance effect for liability reasons. Whatever changed Monday had a MASSIVE effect on skill lag. People know it too -- AD had a queue of over 100 for almost the entire night.

Our guild has seen multiple people who un-subbed and quit due to poor server performance coming back to the game.

Oh no, Cyrodiil is functioning again. Here come all the nerf skill threads . Over 2 years since my last venture in Cyrodiil, might be time to have another play around. More & more positive discussions, gotta be good.

Skill delay in cyrodiil is gone! Our skills go off on the first try now. GW Zos!

I was in Cyrodiil this evening and the gameplay was great!

I was thinking too this. It is apparent that it has made a massive improvement. I feel like ZOS just didn't wanna admit it would make a improvement because that would basically admit that everything they've done up until this point was for nothing. It just proves they were refusing to upgrade the hardware and were looking for any possible way not to do it.

There were a ton of people over the years saying things along the line of "a hardware upgrade wont change anything for XYZ reason," and "if that's all it would take than ZOS would have done it by now." Well look where we are now.

Regardless, I don't care. I'm just happy I can play the game.

Skills may be going off but crashes, “lost lobby connection” and other shenanigans still seem to be pretty rampant at big fights.

Who would have thought, replacing hardware that was 10 years old?? (deep sarcasm)

The difference in population in Cyro is very marked - 2 campaigns are completely full and the other nearly so.
