This piece of crap isn't even ready for beta, it's still in the alpha stage!

This game literally is the worst most buggy release of all time! Don't believe it? I challenge you to list a game that has had more bugs. In my 4 days of playing it, i've came across well over 100 bugs.

You name it, it's happened. The latest was I lost total control of the character, it went all over the place, sideways, forward, etc. without me touching anything. I even turned off my wireless keyboard to see if that was causing it. Nope, it kept doing it. This is the ultimate example of a company caring more about money than their customers. Rush it out and collect the dollars asap is the battle cry of todays corporations!

I will NEVER again get onboard with a game in it's early stages like this. The problem with software and game programmers these days is that they count on the customers to find the bugs instead of themselves like the good ole days! It saves them millions in paying people to test the games. So we have to suffer and get an email with a response to our complaints like this...

"Of course, this is our first MMO, and just like a baby learning to walk, we learn more and more each day about what it takes to effectively construct the best MMO ever!
It is, however, thanks to our enthusiastic fans & gamers, (like yourself) who find bugs & thus provide us feedback, which makes this game all the better."

Thank you for letting me pay my hard earned money to "find bugs" for you!

I am still on the fence as to whether I should ask for a full refund. If refused, I could always dispute the charge on my card. This is FAR BEYOND ridiculous. I hope word continues to spread about how disastrously bad this game is!

Now matter how great this game becomes in the future, believe me, people like me will ALWAYS remember this disappointing half baked startup!

I don't think so. This one has so many bugs, I can't even keep track. I wouldn't ry if I were being paid to.

Vanguard was terribly buggy. Don't even get me started on Final Fantasy 14

Dark & Light

I don't think you understand what an alpha is like if you think this one one.
Honestly this is release worthy, the problem now is they're not rolling out the fixes fast enough as people find them, but then again even when they do fix things people whine like children because the servers have to go offline for a little while.

It's so cute how you use so many exclamation points :^)

joshralph21rwb17_ESO1

honestly the game is very good atm, LOADS of bugs but the most are minor and just annoying....HOWEVER....the pace at which the MAJOR bugs are being fixed is...pretty bad....on top of that, each downtime has somehow broken ever more things each time love the game...but the fact that u have to open the game via the launcher folder, with administrator and with steam closed (why is this even a thing???).... is frankly odd lol oh..... and the fact that I cant enter cyrodill since early access seeing if more than 20 ppl rock up the entire game just....stops....i run around, but everyone is frozen and I d'/c ? no idea on that lol

I challenge you to list a game that has had more bugs.

Dragon's Prophet

To be honest, in my personal experience it had to be the #1 most horrible launch I've seen in my 20-ish years of MMO gaming. Sony screwed it up so much it convinced me to not even attempt to touch EQNext's beta, let alone touch any of Sony's MMO(s) for a LOOONG time.

Agree, game is good. Also think that things get also fixed quickly. At least they do like 2 maintenance breaks per week where they try to fix something. Is the thing found 2 days ago in this patch, prolly not.

In BF4 there is patch every 2 weeks for clients only, no emergency patches or anything. In which of course like todays trend is they fix 1 thing and break 3. Couple examples.
- Along with patch came bug where when you spawned to vehicle gunner seat your game would crash. (2 weeks)
- With patch one game mode would not have in game sound at all. (2 weeks)

Agreed. People are naming other games, but I don't think some of them realize the amount of bugs in this game. According to my research at least a third of the quests has some kind of bug, some major. To say nothing of the countless other bugs. It will take many months to iron it out enough to make this a really playable game.

I agree Dragon's Prophet was a PoS, but you can't blame Sony for that one, they only publish the game. The developers are the Taiwanese company Runewaker

Also, keep in mind that no doubt Zenimax is going to have people posting on this forum who are plants, saying how great the game is and it's not too buggy. It's called damage control. That's the way corporations work. Ebay does it on their forums for instance. Along with most of companies today.

So be careful what you believe when you see supposed customers posting great stuff about the game. Anyone who plays this game for at least a few hours and has nothing but good to say can't be for real, lol! It's really just that simple.

ollie1991

Count yourself lucky you can even get into the game to encounter these bugs.
been off work since 5 day early access and only managed to play maybe 20 hours with all server maintenance/log in issues/launcher issues/patch issues/authorization issues...

YES there is ALOT of issues!

These bugs I assume are in the higher level content or the other 2 factions I haven't played yet?

As of now I am running through Deshaan(sp?) (Ebonheart Pact) not to many bugs there that I have found up til now except at the Mage's Academy there's an NPC that's completely stuck on stupid. I don't remember the quest name but it's the one where 3 student are trying to pass their tests and the "water test" NPC is borken.

This looks an EA sponsored MMO but then we all know EA is a piece of crap company.

Bugs can be fixed. Stupid people can not.

mozark24b14_ESO

I've played since the early release and have seen maybe 5 bugs and one that was kind of annoying on a main quest (currently lvl 33). TBH, after the buggy beta this is a huge improvement and I have no doubt they'll continue squashing the bugs moving forward.

Launch day Star Trek Online! Nuff said!

Yes and unfortunately there are a lot of stupid people at the top involved when they said "sure, release it, it's ready". To the people who keep saying there aren't many bugs, just look at the release notes on the last patch a few days ago. And that doesn't even begin to match the quantity of bugs that still exist. That's just what they corrected with that patch alone.

Considering the release notes have several dozen bugs corrected in one release alone, I think that makes people who keep saying that there aren't many bugs look a little silly when Zenimax themselves are admitting to numerous bugs!

They themselves are fully aware of it and openly admit it, although they won't quiet admit how bad it is. So to everyone who is saying bugs are few, then you are contradicting what Zenimax themselves are stating. I'm just saying, lol!

It's good to know they are at least working on it, however the pure quantity of bugs illustrates that there is NO WAY they weren't aware of major problems before releasing this thing to the public and charging us for it. As I stated previously though, it's all about the money.

Now instead of game makers paying a lot of people to test the games before they release them like they used to do, they let us consumers pay them to learn about the bugs ourselves and report it to them.

It's actually pretty brilliant if you think about it. And we have fallen for it hook line and sinker. Wow, how foolish we can be these days! I can't help but think of the movie Idiocracy, lol.

But myself, I can PROMISE you I won't make this mistake again. The next time a major game comes out, I'll let the other fools figure out the bugs and I'll get onboard several months after the release date. I can't be fooled twice!

Gez, who stepped in your milk this morning?

I just changed my subscription from monthly to 90 days. I love the game more and more. Never since Everquest have I rushed home from work just to log in.

I do not care about bugs. I do care about how they develope the game.

After all of my complaining about the makers of this game, you're asking "WHO" stepped in my milk? You aren't very fast at catching on are you? You don't care about bugs? Lol. Well that's you. Most of us do.

sithjedi

For you people who think this game isn't buggy, here's my latest MAJOR experience. To say nothing of the dozens of small things. I was doing the mission called sever all ties. I got killed, respawned at a shrine. Started into the mission again, and didn't see any enemies anywhere. As I proceeded, I started getting attacked by enemies that weren't even appearing.

I got killed. So I restarted yet again. This time, no enemies at all, but could see their outlines at times. Did the whole mission with no enemies attacking me or other players anywhere in site. I didn't get attacked once.

When I finished closing the portals and came back out, I could see other players horses moving around, but without their legs moving. I couldn't see the players on the horses.

I went to talk to Razum-Dar to finish the mission. Couldn't see him at all where it was marked on the map. Still no other players or characters to be seen. Restarted game entirely and there he stands. So I love it when you guys say this game isn't too buggy, lol.

This is a VERY small portion of what I've ran into myself. I've seen others complain of hundreds of bugs online that I myself haven't ran into. I've kind of reached the point that I'm only playing it to see what crazy crap happens next! This is one for the record books. That's showing us how it's done Zenimax!

Dominion

I just hear alot of crying and complaining for attention, IF you dont like the game dont make a huge show out of it like a ***. Hit cancel, uninstall and dont go lurking around forums ruining others time in a game THEY love.

sithjedi

Crying for attention? Go screw yourself. I paid $80 for this piece of crap, so just unistalling it and moving on isn't an option. You haven't seen the attention that I can get until I REALLY get upset, which is in the works right now actually. I've reached a point that it is unplayable.

Long story short, I can't go forward or backward and am stuck on one quest. I'm one inch from filing a complaint with my credit card, then the better business bureau, followed by a mass online campaign to unite other people who are upset with zenimax over this half baked game.

If you don't like what I have to say, don't read it jerk! I'm one of only thousands complaining about this game. You probably work for zenimax. People like you on forums like this usually do.
