Cyrodil disconnects issue and queue preventing joining

Etherea1 · January 7

Hello, fellow pvp enjoyers.
Its not a secret for anyone that you may have become booted from Cyrodil and will be unable to login for about 5-10 minutes only to appear in PvE location and face long 30+ minute queue.
Such disconnects breaks game not only for you, but for 11 people in your group left in Cyrodil.

If you unable to solve server issues, at least let us skip the queue if previous disconnect was forced.

When disconnected do not try to log right back in. I know it's human nature to want to get right back in the fight but doing so gives you the 5-10 minute timeout bug.

Instead - wait 60 seconds and then try to log back in. Usually this will allow you to log back in and not get thrown out of cyro. There is ~ 5 minutes from when you crash until you get kicked from Cyro. Trying to log in to the game too quick after getting crashed causes some kind of issue where the clients telling you that you're logged in still but the server knows you've been dropped and you can't get around it until the Cyro kick happens.

Patience will help you. Now... I will say this doesn't solve the issue all the time.. maybe 75% in my experience - just trying to help.

Edit - to your overall point though, I agree... it's super frustrating getting a dc and then getting stuck in a queue... especially during midyear and ending up in a 100+ person queue. This bug needs to get fixed.

Thanks for the question. I support that the queue in the Gray Host is very tiring after a forced shutdown.
We are waiting for official comments!

Waiting to log back in almost guarantees you will lose the AP tick because the boot usually happens when riding up to a keep under attack or when defense gets really hot. If you are not there when it unflags you lose out.

Sure, but if you try to log in too fast 9 out of 10 times you'll get hit with this bug... and miss the tick anyways.

The issue still exist, but become less frequent due to pvp decline.
