Performance in cyro on console (ps5) is absolute garbage trash dog water. Nothing works during prime time on any alliance.

1. Heals don’t work.
2. Doesn’t swing aka dizzy…doesn’t swing.
3. Break free is it’s own cc.
4. Leap still misfires 40% of the time.
5. Dark convergence still pulls people in from WAY outside it’s actually circle.
6. Heals don’t work.
7. Spin to Win now take an average 3 button mashes to fire off allowing targets to get away.
8. Jabs…Jan’s lag so bad it looks like my toon is walking around doing an ultra slow heavy attack with an actual spear. I can’t barswap out of this either. I just have to wait for it to end.
9. Stuck in combat going on 3+ years now. How do I die, port to a gate, turn in quests, swap gear, swap skills, port to another keep, and somehow I still can’t mount because I’m “stuck in combat”.
10. Mounts stop randomly sprinting on flat paved roads because of lag.
11. Desync still happens all the time. Randomly die from full health and over the next 10 seconds I get hit with a meteor, few snipes, a couple force pulses, and some random frags.
12. Have to reloadui in middle of fights because skills bars gray out and zero abilities work until you reloadui. Pretty annoying.
13. Can’t play how I want to play. Only 2h abilities for dps that work are rally, cleave, and stampede. Only DW abilities that work 100% of the time are light attacks.
14. Did I mention the new “doesn’t swing” ability doesn’t work?!

My point is, respectfully, I understand you’re running a business. When the crown store has an issue it’s rectified immediately. You’re constantly overloading the crown store with new items. I get it. It’s a business. There’s always new content coming out which is amazing. But for the love of god why am I forced to run stam aoe/dot builds in Gh and BR if I want my abilities to somewhat function? Or I have to run with a server Zerg because going against them I just stall out because the lag is so bad my toon stands there having a seizure on screen trying to break free, or heal, or dodge roll, etc. I just twitch around until I’m dead. Why isn’t this getting fixed. There’s a massive uproar over update 35. You haven’t even finished hybrid changes yet. But still lag is the only constant in ESO on console right now.

I’m not trying to be unprofessional and this isn’t a post to troll Zos or anything. I’m exhausted from all the constant changes every 3 months. I’m tired of wanting to play a game I really used to love but I end up just logging off because it’s really unplayable over 50% of the time. Can you either please just update consoles servers or come up with a way to allow us to swap out console accounts over to pc. At least on pc things function better.

    I understand your frustration, but it won't gonna happen. ZOS allowed a transfer form pc to consoles back when the console version came out, but that was a one time thing.
    I belive they said why, but i can't find the post right now.

    They had the ability to copy data to an empty database/server, but they don't have the ability to copy data to an established database/server. They have said they have no plans to develop a system that could do that.

    We also strongly suspect that the contracts between ZOS and the console providers prohibit the poaching of one provider's customers by another provider.

    I did this at the start of MyM (Grayhost ——> ravenwatch) and I don’t know if I’ll ever go back. I’ve had a few hiccups with lag, but nothing like before. I play maybe an average of 5 hours or so and haven’t experienced a single crash yet.

    I mean any other campaign besides grayhost is fine. No big surprise after all these years that the main campaign is a slideshow during midyear mayhem. But even blackreach, the standing 30 day cp second campaign is relatively chill this year.

    Changing platforms won't solve the issue. Latency is in all servers , all platforms.
    And events just exacerbate the issue.

    Now that they have updated some servers, but have no ETA on the others, paying the same amount of money for less service (which console always did) feels even worse now. Particularly because console issues are often ignored by the community & ZOS.

    I don't even want a full transfer. I get the databases are different, but there should be a One Time Only transfer package offered to people to switch servers With XP scrolls, a full mount training book, potions, maybe a basic house, storage chest, etc. Make ESO+ a requirement, put a CP limit on it (810+ accounts only) or do ANYthing else to figure out a way to make things more equitable now that a huge amount of money has been used to improve 1/6th of the servers, and 2/3rds of the paying population have ZERO access to the improved aspects.

    Pretty much this.

    Also, I do not think they ever said a real why. They just said they would not build out the took required to copy accounts to live servers. It is likely a contractual issue with one or more related partners. It is bad business to throw partners under the bus so they would not speak to it.
