State of PvP on Xbox EU

BladedMischief

I’m not sure if these issues are as obvious and consistent on other servers/platforms. But they sure as hell are on Xbox EU.
Lag, rubber banding, skills not going off and freezing followed by disconnects are becoming more and more of an issue. Cyrodiil is unplayable 99% of the time. Sure, you get the odd time where it’s fine and works, but these times are few and far between.
It feels like having to wait 2-3 business days for a skill to go off lately.
I’ve played almost all classes in Cyrodiil and all of them struggle to get skills off with the lag and such.
It’s getting beyond pathetic. Something needs to be done about it.

When it’s 0 bars across the board, you spawn at a keep miles from any action and your character is stuck because you summoned your mount 30 seconds ago and it hasn’t spawned yet 😂

Absolutely ridiculous

Hea1y

I'm at the point now where I just stand there and nothing happens when I press anything. All bars are full because nothing works 😂

They're not. This is a serious breakage that occurred a few days into the last PVP event. It's left cryo in an unplayable state where there is terrible skill delay even at the main gate with zero bars population.

AFAIK there has been no communication from the devs as to why this happened.

Nope, nothing. Everyone who has submitted a ticket have been told it’s their internet/network

The most frustrating thing about this whole thing is a few weeks ago, they took the server offline unexpectedly on a random late Thursday night to perform some sort of reboot. The server worked so good after that, we were reaching pop cap again, no lag or anything but then the next maintenance day, it went back to normal.

Trying to relay to the devs that whatever they did during that random downtime FIXED the issue!

After a maintenance on 3rd August 2022, in the middle of a PvP event, Gray Host on PS EU was suddenly completely broken for 5-6 months. For half a year players tried to report it and get some kind of acknowledgement.

But ZOS doesn't seem to be able to react to something like that. All they did in the forum was closing threads and telling people to check their internet connetion. Customer service was not helpful at all and did not even try to listen/understand what's going on. The person i talked to for 2-3 weeks refused to pass it on, because "the servers are fine, but i see connection problems on your side".

So Gray Host was empty for half a year, the PvP community got a lot smaller, and what was left played on Blackreach or went to PS NA or PC. Some players are still there... A lot of players just quit playing. In early 2023 Gray Host was playable again and after the "new server hardware" in April we had great performance. But the community is so small now that it's no fun anymore.

Xbox EU might be a different case, because you are the last ones to get the "new server hardware". But it's still the same issue. ZOS refusing to tell us what's going on, and acting way too slowly when something went wrong on their side.

Its unplayable on Xbox EU currently, im now playing on Xbox NA until it is resolved at the very least and I wont be spending any money on either server until it is sorted out.

Honestly, it’s getting to be beyond pathetic on ZOS’s side. If I was them I’d be embarrassed. They really should be ashamed at the state of it, and their responses. I’ve reached my breaking point with it, can’t wait till something comes along to replace ESO pvp.
