Since the last patch there are times that the "E" and "Escape" buttons become non-responsive. I am able to do other things: move, open bags, open character sheet, etc. during these outages.

The result is I have to close the ESO.exe process & reboot the game.

Ticket # 140620-003395

After the last 2 patches this game has been more frustrating than fun with simple mechanical issues. I hope these problems are addressed immediately.

    I've had that happen to me a few times as well. Unable to bring up the menu by pressing escape, and unable to interact with things. I have to press the start menu key, and manually close the game out there, and restart.

    I think it has to do with outdated addons. Have you checked your addons list to see if they're up to date?

    I have never had this problem. Sounds like an outdated addon.

    Also having the issue with Escape. Haven't noticed it with other buttons yet. Someone else made a thread with the same thing as well in another section, so add both of us to this list!

    One thing I have noticed is that I am sometimes unable to use the E key to loot - strange thing is, this only happens on my Nightblade, my Dragonknight has never experienced this.

    Been like this for several weeks now. I noticed today that I now have to hit E twice to harvest and I cannot harvest if I have a weapon in my hand. It used to put an equipped weapon away.

    I also noticed today a multitude of corpses that I could not loot. Got the yellow halo for loot, the "bags are full" tone (bags were not full), and unable to loot. This happened over and over.

    ZoS? Since the bots are gone now (and thank you soo much for smacking them to Oblivion) can't we PLEASE get rid of the multitude of key press issues AS WELL AS the nerfed loot range.

    It's not an addon problem. If you search the forum there are several threads with the same issue.

    Let's add "R" for repair to the list. Can't repair, relogged a few times, eventually rebooted the game 3 times. Worked on the 4th reboot. Just happened for the 3rd time this evening. Here's to hoping tomorrow is a better day.

    I can't continue to pay for this crap Zen, but I love most of the rest of the game.
