Seriously I can't help but ask that. I mean the game used to run so smooth, but now since this latest round of patches, it is nothing but crash crash crash. I havent seen crashes like this since launch. Let's see. The other day log in go to bank leave building CTD. ok whatever. Yesterday log in, had to make new gear for my alt, Visit store, and yea mail bug is back so whatever, log out CRASH. Log in, finally get mail craft gear go to bank CRASH. log BACK in access bank go to enchanting table. craft runes, step away to go feed puppies C R A S H.

WTF have you guys done to the game. I've supported the game since practically the beginning, and yes i kept my sub, and played and rarely complained, but this is getting to be a bit much. how the hell did the game go from running pretty smooth last month to complete garbage this month. This has to entirely be your LAST patch with the whole Tam U stuff because even at 1.6 my game ran flawlessly. now its getting to the point where i honestly dont desire to log in because if i do i know the damn thing will crash in 10 minutes.

Now, I'm a software engineer, i know how tedious programming is, but that is why you T E S T. as far as i know you tested 1.6 but everything in 2.0 you just ignored, and now people who actually enjoyed the game as it was are paying for it through crap stability. honestly, i was going to keep my sub active, but with the game in its current state im finding it hard to do so. you broke far more in this last patch than you fixed

    Didn't have any crashes since 2.0 came up. Perhaps just lucky... Check your machine and update it if needed. They changed to OpenGL so if video driver is old or corrupted you might have those issues. Hope it helps.

    I haven't had any new issues with random crashing. Still have some trouble beating the load screen boss occasionally but that's nothing new.

    few days after update was a bit glitchy and crashed few times but now it's all ok, apart from when i enter a building it loads partially at 1st(NPC and floor/walls load last....) also after relogging nearby NPCs load in few sec delays.

    It's the same for me.

    Ever since the update I can only play without crashes because I edited my user settings to opengl instead of directx.

    Might have better luck going to the Tech Support section and posting there. Maybe someone has run into the same problem.

    Sometimes a new driver can be the cause. Try rolling back to a driver you know worked previously?

    maybe that might fix things worth a shot, just seems annoying that game is practically unplayable now.

    I crashed quite a few times in the first few days after launch and in ways I had not crashed before. My crashes seem to occur most often in Cyrodiil - whole groups would crash at once. But, the last couple of nights i have not crashed at all in PvE zones. I have experienced the slow loading issue in the Mournhold bank almost every time I enter. There are no floors or walls when it first loads. My biggest issue is the horrible lag in Cyrodiil - it is unplayable if enough people are on.

    I've had zero crashes, but I know for a fact that two of my friends that play said post 1.6, there graphics settings were reset to Ultra high from the custom settings they were previously using. I wonder if your graphics settings are too high and your computer just cannot handle the game now?

    Several different types of crashes are reported over on the Tech Support section.

    Most prevalent are the 2 I have:

    1. Screen freezes and you have to 3 finger salute and the Task Manager reports "No Response" and the RAM usage is very high for a 32bit game.. i.e. over 3gig for just the game.

    2. The "The ESO Crash Reporter" pops up and you have to log out with it.

    see thats basically what mines doing i interact with stuff screen goes completely black 3 finger salute task manager and there's the lovely crash reporter in the background.

    I did notice some setting changed, but even on those settings at launch i ran fine, i only altered certain things for a better experience,but i tweaked those back. thats when i got the crash while looting. o well i guess the fates are saying dont play ESO today. guess all ill be doing for a while is logging in for my hirelings and crafting and thats about it.

    Did you try the Repair function on the launcher? Maybe some files got corrupted...

    Only had one crash in a vet dungeon due to all the mob kiting and then all of us spamming all our abilities at once.

    Overall the game has been smooth, but there is noticeable lag at times since TU launch as was expected honestly.

    It's not just you. Game ran glass-smooth for me too, prior to 1.6.

    It crashes or freezes far too often now, and multiple repair attempts haven't had a positive effect.
