Before, I just traveled to another server...that had lower pop, but atleast had playable ping. Now...every server is lagged, and I was simply forced to log out for the night, 2 hours earlier then I usually do. I cant play a laggy game, it sucks the fun right out.
Hope this is fixed ASAP, or else....

✭✭✭✭✭Lag goes up and down, one minute its fine then it spikes for several minutes to as high as 5000. Usually its around 300-500 and even thats unplayable.

✭✭✭It's probably your router or your graphics being too high. Perhaps try spreading out more from other players. Either way, it's not ZOS's problem, it's yours.Invictus

Achieving good performance in a PvP zone in an MMORPG is a complicated task.
Many factors affect the performance, many are outside the company that developed the game and not others.
By the company, the game engine, the way the game is programmed, the quality of the servers and the way in which these are configured to manage the information is influential.
Externally, your computer, your local internet connection (from your home to the nearest node of the distribution company), your internet connection distribution (the connection between the node of your company Internet to servers ZOS) , attempts to attack servers, etc.
Our internet service provider can offer good quality local connection, but something very different is that they can maintain the quality of external distribution in the case of international connections.
Continuous attacks suffered by servers by people who are looking to annoy or competing companies looking to ruin the business is too far from our reach to solve it.
In the related client - service provider's relationship is given by us as users and ZOS, the only thing as users can do is ensure the quality of our computer, the only thing as a service provider can do ZOS is to ensure quality servers.
As you will see in the middle exist some factors that are impossible to manage.
This happens in every MMORPG.

Not spending much time for PvP here.
It's more often that not related here to mean ... When you cast an ability and it takes 5-10 seconds, or more, before the effect shows on your screen. Not only that but sometimes every effect just seems to stop and take a breather for a while. Then suddenly everything "catches-up". Some times when that happens you realize you died that 10 seconds or more, ago.
It is VERY annoying.0 -

Obviously you have not been playing pvp the last couple of days.
Its lag where everyone in the area cannot use any skills at all. Skills dont get executed. You can move around, you can play the frikin lute, but combat skills are gone for up to a couple of minutes.
Its not just my pc when it happens, it is all players in the same area.

✭Well it is just going to get worse now that ZOS increased the XP gain there. Players will flock to Cyrodiil for the XP farm and the opportunity to gain more CP.0 -

@ElliottXO , we're talking about circumstances where you basically become less responsive or non-responsive.I always wondered if people mean actual lag (=ping) or a frame rate drop?
Not spending much time for PvP here.
Latency (ping rate) goes up sometimes, but not always.
It's a circumstance where animations will slow or not fire at all, commands will not proc or will proc after much delay, movement is slowed, delayed, or sometimes reverted back to your position some time prior ("rubber banding")...
It makes attack almost impossible and defense even worse. You'll see people getting hit with 50 different attacks and taking no damage (server doesn't register it) and animations often loop. (A Meteor drop got stuck that way once and it turned into a Meteor shower, replaying about 10 times in a row).
It's not about a particular skill (the Meteor theory - the above was just an example. There were other skills repeating as well), locale, or congestion. It would trigger when there were massive people nearby, it would trigger when enroute to the location you were at before, yet still far enough away.
It prevents you from dying (sometimes), moving (avoiding), fighting, even leaving through the friggin' door.
And for the 'reset your router/adjust your video settings' responders, those things are not the common factor between 100's of people with multiple computer builds from multiple locations...

Lag in PVP is basically RIP for any game serious about PVP.
People will come back to the game and realize beta bugs are still here and performance is still terrible with a patching system that is horrid and a LFG Tool that still does not work. Buggy and poorly designed UI with horrible party / group mechanics.
They will just leave without even getting to see all the wonderful things they have done to update and improve this console game. I mean how will they live without ESO PLUS, exp potions and without even seeing the crown store?Edited by Troneon on March 24, 2015 12:12PMPC EU ADMaster Crafter - Anything you need!!High Elf Magicka Templar Healer/DPS/TankTrials / Dungeons / PVP / Everything0 -
Lord_Kreegan✭✭✭✭✭For all you clueless types, @Kilandros was being sarcastic, not factual, in his statement.
What he stated was a joke; those are the suggestions (rationalizations) ZOS usually uses.1 -
