Today i have encountered many loading screens that don't stop loading.

    This looks megaserver related. Constantly stuck at loading screenings at moment on EU.

    I am experiencing this issue as well. I do not use any add-ons. I find that when I enter the game I am allowed to zone once. Subsequent zone attempts result in a permanent load screen and I must task kill the game to get out it. I've found that if I'm cognizant enough to remember to /camp before a zone attempt, that appears to be a work around.

    Thank you for your attention, and here's hoping this particularly nasty issue is resolved soon.

    Have been having this issue since launch, whenever accessing an even moderately populated Cyr campaign it's basically 9 of 10 loads will hit the infinite load screen. Occasionally I get lucky and get in.... then to just crash when invited into a raid group.

    Saw in another thread to update your add-ons after the patch. I updated mine and all seems good again. >crosses fingers<

    Not saying the add-ons are the sole cause, if even a cause at all... Just know that, so far, it has fixed things for me.

    I deleted or uninstalled all of mine. Still no joy and others I know are now experiencing it as frequently today.

    Hi, ESO people - would it be possible to fix this? You know, while people are actually having the time to play the game? Or are you waiting until normal weekdays start again, so that we don't tax your servers?

    I'm not going to continue trying to play like this. 7 times I have had to restart the game now because of this issue. It's really annoying. Please fix this problem.

    I have been having the infinite loading screen too.

    Is this issue happening across all of your characters, or only select ones?
    I only have one character
    Can you get past the character select screen?
    Yes
    Are you in a particular zone or dungeon when the error is happening?

    Does completely restarting the game help?
    Yes

    So, has any change to this happened? Couldn't play last night. Wondering if I can play today or if I should just go play something else that works. :pensive:

    I'm having same problem trying to get out from Cyrodill to PvE map. I've been trying for an hour or so. Really upset with infinite loading sccreens. Never hapened before last patch.
  • cris13crossb16_ESO
    This problem is starting to get really annoying. I cannot complete the level 43 fighters guild quest because of it, there is a point where i am automatically transported somewhere and every time i get infinite loading. If i quit out and log in again the mission bugs out because there is no portal.
    I've done it 4 times so far and its becoming increasingly frustrating getting stuck on every load screen in it.

    I'll just like to confirm that this has risen since the last patch. Pre patch loading screen were lengthy but they never got "stuck".

    I just had to shut down and restart the game 3 times to get from a main story instance back to the harborage, then another 2 times to get from the harborage to auridon.

    This might be a fluke but both times it worked just now:

    1. Go to My Documents/Elder Scrolls Online/live (or liveeu)/Savedvariables
    2. Rename ZO_Ingame.lua to ZO_Ingame123.lua or something so basically the game can't read the file. (you can always rename it back again)
    3. reboot the game and the loading screen should be fine.

    I read this somewhere else and only tried it today after trying to reboot the game twice didn't work.

    Same as you all....never had this issue until recent. Whenever porting into an instance, whether it be a new map or dungeon, it gets stuck loading... :(

    Zoning seems to be generally slow for me especially entering dungeons (EU server), however since last patch I've had to exit the game twice today because I couldn't get past zoning screen. This also happened to my group members today.

    Another issue that might be related which has hit us past 2 days is we're being "logged out" yet our characters are still in game and functioning except we can't travel to group members nor trade etc as the game says player is not online.

    What I love is how we get a patch and every bug that gets 'fixed' I never encounter until after the patch.

    I'm having this issue 2 patches ago, it started very slow, twice in 2 or 3 hours and restarting the game fixed it. But since the latest patch and specially a couple of hours ago I'm getting this every 20 minutes. Doesn't matter where I am, dungeon, house, cave. And restarting the game is not fixing it.
    I don't usually rage at bugs or server crashes, but this is really annoying. I spent almost half my game time looking at loading screens this weekend.

    This problem has been occurring since the Beta. It happens inconsistently so it is hard to get a bead on to whether or not it is a faulty internet connection or the fact that there is actually a bug that is causing things to react slowly. One of the major aspects to this issue and it is still happening now in July, is that there are what feels like surges of information. Often the game will run smoothly from anywhere from a few hours to a week and then slow down extensively almost like somewhere in the network there is a bottleneck of data. I have attempted all of the above fixes, and it leads me to conclude that with most everyone experiencing the same symptoms no matter the strength of their computer, much of it has something to do with the either the size of the server, or with the way that the information is flowing from the server.
