    22:08 (CEST): First Mass disconnect on the new server after a period of severe ability lags.

    Congratulations, Zenimax, you've done it. You successfully migrated the EU megaserver to Frankfurt and even migrated the ability lags with them. Well, not that I've expected a miraculous 'healing' of this problem anyway ...

    Care to comment when this issue will be addresed by you, dear Zenimaxies?

    - Zenimax does not care about the increasing instability of the game. People have more and more crashes Fix of memory bug decreased number of crashes considerably
    - Zenimax has still not fully fixed the fps drops they (!) implemented with patch1.2.3
    - Zenimax does nothing to fix the massive ability lags in PvP
    - Zenimax gives more attention to unnecassary 'content' like dyes for armors than fixing issues
    - In patchnotes Zenimax lies about bugs allegedly fixed
    - Zenimax has no plan as to how balance population in Cyrodiil campaigns
    - Support is ineffective and does not even speak in a way one can linguistically understand

    So ability lag is not due to server but the game program itself

    I've been in large battles with over 50+ players on both sides and only experienced minimal lag in abilities, but when fighting certain groups who ball up and spam synergies it always results in very large lag in being able to use abilities or both take and inflict damage. We've had to result to light attacks as the only means of combat due to those abilities.

    It's not those groups' fault, and I'm not blaming them. The issue as I mentioned in the rest of the quote you omitted is due to the game mechanics and system and that what needs to be changed, as has been mentioned countless times.

    And as I stated I have experiences contradicting yours. So either of us could be right or either could be wrong. FACT, you dont know for sure and the instability of the game, at least IMO, points more in the direction of crappy software that cant handle 'large scale PvP' regardless if people are stacked or spaced out. Actually, i fail to see why stacking would cause more strain than saying a spaced out battle (lets average radius of 10m to either friend or foe) during a siege courtyard battle.

    WE can agree, however, on the fact that the Devs should sort this problem out, and that this is more important than playing the minigame of fashion designer and coloring your outfit!

    I'll agree to that :)

    There is a very well written post on the ESO subreddit in relation to this kind of issue, and I would encourage everyone to take a second to read it. Take from it what you will

    This is all well known information and does not add anything new - at least for me.

    Today again massiv ability lags during a fight at BRK around 11:00 CEST. NO (!) bomber groups in the area, so they can't be the reason for those lags.

    You may well be fully aware of all of this yourself, but I think it would be very helpful for a lot of people. Secondly, I am not trying to say this isn't a problem with the game that needs to be addressed / improved upon - I am simply trying to give people a better idea of why it was happening.

    Certainly bomb groups aren't the only cause of lag issues while in Cyrodiil, but they are most certainly a significantly contributing factor. To be clear it doesn't really matter where they are on the map. If you have a big fight going on around a keep (i.e. BRK yesterday - I was there too) there will be a lot of skills going off and queueing on the server. If a bomb group is spamming skills even on the other side of the map, they still enter the same queue as you at BRK because they are on the same server.

    I am of the opinion people should fully understand what they are talking about when complaining about this sort of thing and thought it would be useful to have a look at that post for quick reference.

    There are too many fps and latency problems on pvp. As soon as game developers should fix the problems.

    yup!

    Still waiting for a sign of life from @ZoS_JessicaFolsom, @ZOS_GinaBruno‌, @ZOS_BrianWheeler and for an answer, when Zenimax will fix this issue.

    Are @ZoS_JessicaFolsom, @ZOS_GinaBruno‌, @ZOS_BrianWheeler still working for Zenimax? If so I don't understand why we can't get an answer when Zenimax will fix the lag issues. And if not, could any other representative of Zenimax give an answer? Ignoring this thread and the customers who have lags will only drive them away to other games.

    Edit: I forgot to say that since yesterday I encounter lags even in PvE (Reapers March, Malabal Tor). While lags in PvP are always ability lags, those lags in PvE showed in a different way: My char was several times instantly ported back to a place where he was 15 or 20 seconds before.

    Many guildmates and many players in those areas had lags to and wrote so in the chat, so it's not only me.

    This issue with lags seems to be progressing and HAS TO BE FIXED!
