Xbox EU is Dyeing...

Sn00ps

We get only 1 bar each alliance at prime time on fridays and saturdays, PVE is very quiet and under populated too, BG's can take 30 minutes to pop and dungeons equally take way longer than I have experienced on other servers. I have accounts on PC EU & Xbox NA however the majority of my in game friends are on Xbox EU as that is where I started playing when the game released many years back. The main issue causing the server to die is that Cyrodiil has lag beyond what you have seen on the other servers if you are from there, let me tell you it is literally unplayable with skills not even firing until 5 seconds after pressing a button if at all... That is with only one bar on each alliance... We need some love and some help from the developers to firstly fix Cyrodiil which in turn will drive the population back up over time, but currently new and returning players are not interested in sticking around when they enter PvP for the first time and nothing works properly. We have not received a server upgrade like every other server yet but we have been experiencing this detrimental new level of lag for around 2 months with no word from the developers as to why, when or how it can be fixed... I really want to bring more attention to this fact in the hope that we will get some assistance from the dev team before the server dies entirely.

I came here looking for some sort of dye pun. Maybe everyone colored green.

I would love to say that I did this on purpose to bring more traffic, however I simply had a bit of a dyslexic moment, or dyeslexic moment? Im not sure...

Isn't the Xbox EU the last server to be replaced?

I gave up on Xbox EU a while ago because it's pretty much dead. ZOS should combine the megaservers so the population doesn't leave altogether.

FFXIV will be the final nail in the coffin for xbox servers in general tbh.

I'll be trying FFXIV out when it's released on Xbox. ESO is dead on there either way.

What is so good about that game? It's got a global cooldown which is just yuck and the combat almost looks turn based lol. The playerbase is even weirder than here also.

In ESO you have a lot of RPers and carebears sure but relatively normal people. FF14 is just filled with borderline..um..all I can say, is that Asian MMOs are different and tend to objectify certain..aspects that us western folk can't get away with.

Totally agree. The Pop is very low and many of my friends stop playing. We talked in disc and check if somthing changs but the answers all always the same still lag...so his is why we dont come back to EU.

Yeah we are the last server and still dont have a exactly date just this year.

Maybe it will be a option to put NA and EU together if the performace will be ok.

Could be, because we dont have so many games like eso. I think the release of FF will have a impact on X EU Server if nothing change and at the moment it dont seems that there will be any changes or updates.

And i am still here dyeing my lonely Khajiit's fur while they have parties without me? Thank you for the info, i will buy a gaming PC and see you there! Woohoo!

It would be great just for the developers to even acknowledge that we have issues and to let us know something is being worked on, at the moment we are in the dark completely and it feels bad man.

Saw that happen with EQ years ago. Had no REAL competition (like ESO on console) and made a few bad decisions for "balance" with a "take it and like it" attitude. In comes WOW and so many jumped ship. Hope that doesn't happen here. I'm getting a bit long in the tooth to start new games.

PS NA here, yes console had it too. All weekend basically. I believe all accounts (PC, Xbox, PS) are authenticated through a single login server and after authentication passes you are shunted to your appropriate platform / megaserver.

At this point I'm not even sure fixing pvp/cyro will bring players back, it definitely won't be how it used to be.

How Long is it now? Around 3 month since NA got the Upgrade? I don't think that many will be come Back. Most of the will reach over 160 CP and got all stuff they need to Play there.

How many Bars were online during Prime the Last Weeks 3-6 complete? We don't have a Date for the Upgrade so imo EU is done.

I meant the population on Xbox EU, so they don't completely abandon the game when FF14 is out.

That is what i mean you have No reason to come Back. Because you are at a Point where can Play there.there are more benefits to stay there.

markulrich1966

for decorating your houses EU is terrible, as you get the required rare furnishing materials from delve and worldboss dailies.
EU is so dead, that you have to solo all those bosses. If you are ok with that - fine.

I started on NA some years ago when EU loginwas broken. Meanwhile am more advanced on NA (playing from germany) than on EU, as I have a much higher chance to do bosses together with other players.
EU is somewhat like "survival mode", NA "conveniance".

This could change if they would add scaling to worldbosses like at dolmens, but I suggest this since 3 years already without success.

Well this morning (right now) I spent 1 hour and 30 minutes waiting on BG queue while I was in ravenwatch pvping, I saw 3 other ppl I could actually fight. PCEU isnt that much better.

Rowjoh

what colour ?

mb10

Devs having 6 different servers across 3 different platforms is silly lol its so outdated

At least merge the NA and EU... let alone cross platform play

Also very important to mention is, that it´s crossplay.

Have done the journey from the start to Endwalker is something you will never forget.

Yea cyro is laggy today as usual today, only 5 of us fighting, 0 bars on and was just about bareable.
I go to Imperial city and that's horrible to for some reason, not sure why as IC is usually lag free.
