Latency on the European Megaserver - Looking for Additional Info

Zentara✭Had been enjoying playing earlier in the week, but lag has got worse as the week has progressed - this morning I've given up as everything keeps freezing - PvE lowish level (Stonefalls and Stros M'Kai). Playing Cyrodil yesterday was difficult because enemies, as well as players on my side, didn't appear until almost on top of me. Please, please fix soon... it's getting tiresome and annoying, really messing up what is otherwise a great game
(UK, Virgin Media 60mb; no problems with other MMOs, regardless of where the server is located)Edited by Zentara on May 16, 2014 5:34PM0 -

Nope. What's an autoreply going to solve?

Are there any specific moments you recall experiencing extreme latency? While questing? While running dungeons? While in Cyrodiil?

Akhratos✭✭✭✭Just letting all you guys in europe know we all get the same massive delay in cyrodiil being in the states on the na server, as well as the occasional in pve. More then likely that is the reason for the post as it all isnt as simple as your latency and moving the server to EU.
How could you know?
Did you try coming to Europe just to play in a server in the other side of the world?
Maybe you are having issues with the NA server being located in NA... but just stop the *** about "we all have the same issues".
No, we all do not have the same issues. Some of us have a server in their same continent, others dont. Maybe you should blame the pathetic NA internet infrastucture in half the country instead of relating it to location issues.2 -

No, did not try that, the reason is too obvious, when will the server be in Frankfurt ? ETA? - What region are you playing the game in? (Your country and specific area)
Germany , Frankfurt - Who is your ISP?
Unity Media, 100 Mbit Cable - Are there any specific moments you recall experiencing extreme latency? While questing? While running dungeons? While in Cyrodiil?
In all occassions, solo PVE, dungeon PVE, Cyrodil is the worst expierience of course.
Also some skills worsen the lag, like Ambush from the Nightblade.
Thanks in advance for any information you’re able to share with us about this issue!

Somehow I get the impression the just don't give a flying duck. That is because they already have our money for the game purchase (in my case $106 and some odd cents.) Besides its my fault for assuming that when I gave them my card info they were smart enough to use it correctly. They could still make things right but the fact that the other threads about their billing practices are being deleted or buried leads me to believe that they don't care about their customers and that they want to attract a whole new group of people to abuse and kick to the curb when they are done taking them for whatever they can.Edited by Iago on May 18, 2014 11:27AMThat which we obtain to cheap we esteem to lightly, it is dearness only that gives everything its value.

Cyrodiil, sometimes in instances, basicly more populated areas with alot of effects.
I also have general stuttering in combat, people in hidden state in cyrodiil stutters, game freezes completly (chat works) in bigger fights in Cyrodiil.
Game can get huge laggpikes in Cyrodiil where enemies moves slowly, then moves in rapidspeed over large areas.
One second its just you at one area, then your dead with 5 enemies standing ontop of you.

So I have to pay an extra 60 dollars a year because they cant get their *** together and move their "EU" servers to Frankfurt as they said they would after the initial launch, which is quite over now. No thanks. That's a really dumb solution. Even if it works, you are getting royally screwed....twice....

Zentara✭As above - early Monday morning is the time you least expect lag but I'm getting hit by freezing every few seconds. Impossible to play. This in Stros M'Kai. Dread to think what it's like in Cyrodil
Hope ZOS are reading these comments - some feedback from the devs would be helpful. Please? Thank you in advance...0 -

✭✭✭Seems they are really trying to sweep this under the rug atm. They will NEVER fully defeat gold sellers, WoW hasn't, SWTOR hasn't, and ESO wont. If they wait to move the EU servers until they "defeat" the gold sellers and bots, we will never get the EU servers in their proper location.2 -
Don_XSoul ShrivenI don't think this issue is confined to EU server. I play on NA server from UK and guild members in NA zones still have problems in Cyrodil
For my part, fps issues are still a concern in Cyrodill. It seems to have gotten worse lately. On Saturdays all call (5/17/14) it was dropping to 10fps and lower. I re-set graphics to minimum, but that only made the graphics fuzzy, and fps was still the same as graphics on high. Still headroom on my CPU usage and RAM too; so it suggests to me that the problem stems from the server. At launch, and up to a couple of weeks ago I could get a playable 18fps during large zerg encounters (and before you ask , my drivers are up to date)
On average I get 45fps, and can peak at 100fps in quiet zones.

Everybody is saying "move the server to EU = fixed" but I can tell you 100% this will not solve a thing. Not a thing
The delay and latency problems lie within ZOS' own servers and program code. As a System Engineer/Administrator I can assure you that moving the servers to EU would have you drop perhaps 40ms of your 200+ usual latency. The reason they are still not moving the servers is because ZeniMax wants to remove most gamebreaking/serverside issues & bugs.
Believe me, we'd be having much more issues if they moved the server here at the start. Updates wouldn't go through regularly, NA would get issues fixed but EU would have others popping up, resulting in them having to work with the "delay". Fixing a server nearby > fixing one on the other side of the world.

Dalriaden✭✭✭How could you know?
Well, I don't have to travel to Europe to see, as my guild has people in Australia, Britain, and Denmark to name a few countries. Yet somehow when the people in Australia, Britain and Denmark are lagging those in Canada, California, Texas, and whatever other states our members are in are lagging as well.
Not sure why some of you are in such a snit about it. I honestly hope you get your server soon and feel you should have had it at release, but once again it's not going to be a cure all for the massive spikes you get in game. Allegedly superior infrastructure or not.
I play a lot of games, none of them get spikes like this, there is a server issue that odds are will be in a EU server as well that lags the game, period.

Arragnox✭During early evening and on peak times for EU I have found that I can get to US, but it stops at ae-82-82.csw3.washington1.level3.net or ae-81-81.ebr1.washington1.level3.net for me. It will not go past that and everything times out. Should i get past I go from 174ms on average starting from ae-7-7.ebr1.dusseldorf1.level3.net and it jumps to 500ms+ to any routing beyond the washington entry point.
I have also reported this to my isp. This comes on top of the lag I reported earlier when in Cyrodill even in off-peak times.
- Have you reach out our Support Team yet to request help for this issue? And if so, what is your support ticket number?
- No, as in there isn`t much they can do about in-game lag
- What region are you playing the game in? (Your country and specific area)
- Norway, central location
- Who is your ISP?
- Telenor
- Are there any specific moments you recall experiencing extreme latency? While questing? While running dungeons? While in Cyrodiil?
- Mostly while in Cyrodill and prime example was yesterday prime time. I had been playing for a while in Cyrodill and peak time arrived and lag started to occur, for all of us it seemed in chat, but for me I was booted to login screen an got alternat Error 200 and 201 all the time. Did a tracerout and it stopped dead on the washington entry point. Could not connect back for the rest of the evening.
As previously said; When and if I get past washington, thats when I get huge lag spikes or disconnect all togethere. This is how it looks when off peak;
zenimax-med.edge2.dallas1.level3.net (4.71.220.10) 172.536 ms !X 172.398 ms !X 172.973 ms !X - No problems reach though a bit high ping, which is to be expected.0 -

Thanks for the input, but you didnt make a valid point to your previous statement yet.
So, no. We are not all having the same issues.
In fact, you are showing 300ms LAGSPIKES while people in EU use to play with an average delay near those 300ms (most of them over 200ms 99% time).

My post's have been about the lag in Cyrodiil that was mentioned multiple times and how it affects everyone. Not about how you guys have a high latency and die to skeevers because you didn't know you got dismounted.

You are unable to understand.
Your only options are having or not having issues.
In top of usual lagspikes and poor high-load performance in Cyrodil, people in europe are experiencing an average, continuous lag that is almost as high as your lagspikes.
There are degrees in the bad performance we all experiment. You are very quick to claim whar we yave in eu (the same as NA?) yet quite slow to understand it.

I made no point about any lack of intelligence in my post.
I said he was unable to understand, either because he seems not aware of eu players issues (lagspikes of 300ms?) or because he deprecate the difference between experiencing 300ms spikes or having it all the time, with ocassional 800-900ms lagspikes.
Anyways I agree its been enough.0 -
@Zenimax: Stop calling it "European Megaserver" is misleading advertising.
Do you think we can play with an average 200ms latency in a action RPG where is supposed to dodge and parry enemies attacks?

It's been more than three weeks and nothing has changed, nor has anyone told when, how and if something might change. No word on server move, either.
The "shortly after release" period has already ended for quite a few and there are less and less each day that are willing to wait. No wonder, if people are being kept in the dark.
