My account has been open since about 6-8 months ago when i first got my beta invite 5 beta rounds before the pre-access. Let me just say I AM AMAZED at how little they fixed. Most of the same glitches are present. Half the time entering a new zone will cause a crash. Many required quest npcs/items don't even EXIST. Its incredible that companies like Bethesda and Zenimax can release something this unpolished! I have reported issues with the harborage, issues with spawning and instancing quests for literally MONTHS NOW and got no response and obviously NO FIXES. Just fix something, anything from the horse demounting every 15 seconds to the many crashes or quests. JUST 1 THING!

    Agree I played 3 betas and I don't know what has gotten fixed. I play on Ebonheart and all the same quests are broken which I reported 2 months ago.About 12 hours in I do the 2nd harborage quest and fall through the map. I have to port out of the instance to get out of the glitch. My point is how come almost every single quest I do has a major bug? The Main thing you do in this game is completely broken. We paid $80 for this and are expected to pay $15 a month but the game isn't ready. I got duped into paying for beta. I listened to other people saying the had a newer build but it was a lie

    As already said, it's not a quest bug, it's a server respawn / interactions issues... Quest are working fine at the opening of the server then things are going bad quickly as the time go through...

    I think they're well aware of this, but note that for 80% of these bugs, loging out then back in a few times generally make you reach a phase which is not bugged... Hope they finally find a way to solve this because it's really killing the game experience.

    As for the crash when entering new areas, I didn't had any crash since 2 betas nor since the release...

    I have played both AD and EP since launch, both to level 8 with every quest done on the starter islands and beyond and only got 1 quest bug and I abandoned it and it then worked fine.

    Congrats Loxy, i have a chracter who is currently lvl 15 and in beta i made it past level 20, and let me say you must have been seriously lucky. I have had quests where i have abandoned and retried every single step just to have the last one NOT WORK. The most common are from overcrowding, but ive NEVER seen another mmorpg with this problem, or this amount of problems. ESPECIALLY ONE THAT COSTS MONEY PER MONTH! Literally a slap in the face of all customers.

    @Mcilwham‌ these posts confuse me, except for the horse dismount issue I've not encountered any others bugs. I have to say what your describing seems like it's a completely different MMO to the one I am playing.

    Oh except for the German speaking quest, but that's an awesome bug :)

    As for the crashes, during the first 3 beta rounds i played i crashed maybe once total. During the last 2 and the current builds ive crashed DOZENS of times. Its infuriating. My computer is pretty much brand new. They messed up the game in the last few patches. Been so much more buggy since last beta weekend.

    Now I can't even log on. Will Bethesda/Zenimax be issuing refunds? I wouldnt consider this playable in current form.

    I have done the log out and back in thing multiple times and didn't fix the situation for me.

    The big issue is they let hundreds of thousands of people play test the game and report these bugs well before launch but that did nothing. My only thought is to fix the game it requires them to start from scratch again cause they can't handle player traffic

    It's not even just this quest. So many of them are affected by this and they haven't fixed it after all these months.

    No subscription from me, not until they fix it.

    I am sorry but whether it is a bug from poor scripting or a bug from too heavy loads it is still a bug! If this was reported months ago and is still not fixed then it means they screwed the pooch! I've tried in the middle of the night, i've abandoned the quests several times, i've quit the game and reloaded from within the zone and nothing works, ergo.. it's a bug! Fix it!

    I'm a big ESO fan and respect ZOS for their hard work, but early access really feels like a beta session so far. The one big difference is that beta is beta, we all know what to expect (or at least we should), but this is early access, we paid a premium to get the perk of playing the finished game early.

    I can't even progress through main storyline. And the thing is these are the same issues I remember from the last few betas, and I thought their patch notes said that the issues were fixed.

    For me it is a huge difference to the last weekend beta.

    I could find almost no bugs so far up to lvl 10, cyrodiil performance is a lot better aswell.

    In the last beta weekend i did find really a lot of bugs and cyrodiil was unplayable for me.

    I dont have the same expirience in early access so far.

    If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck ... That it's one giant bug in the basic technology actually doesn't help. I remember on the other forum how people who didn't take optimistic 'all fixed' patch note noises as gospel and suggested another beta test just to check were howled down by a mob.

    It's a great game and I'm subbing but launching with an untested beta is not the way to go for good reviews and word of mouth.

    But I guess paid for 'Early Access' is how the cool kids are pronouncing 'beta' these days.

    That is what is bothering me, beta is one thing BUT we paid a premium for early access and to enjoy the finished product. These are issues from beta still hanging around.

    They need to fix this or they will be forced to go F2P because of all the lost subs.
