Riding Upgrades

I don't know how to say it in english so "Je crois que ce bug arrive plus souvent quand le terrain a du relief, sur le plat on dirait que ça ne le fait pas"

Everywhere........

technohic · March 2015

Some thing is also wrong with the senche you sold be. Climbing wood steps to the outer walls of keeps seem to be a challenge for him. Maybe arthritis. Has to go really slow. I think you gave me an elderly senche.

Do us a favor: next time you run into the issue where your mount will just stop for no apparent reason, can you let us know the exact location? We have been seeing this reported quite a bit, but locations would help speed up the investigating process. Thank you!

This happens everywhere. Usually going up an incline tho as it happens most frequently when going up stairs or a ramp of some sort.

Elijah_Crow · March 2015

I hate to say it but the above post is correct. It literally happens everywhere. I would have guessed it's caused by uneven ground if it had not happened to me repeatedly on flat terrain.

You can't sprint through an area without it happening. This should be very easy to reproduce. I'll have my wife make a video and link it as an example.

I think a video is exactly what is needed here. Hopefully you can get a good one that shows this.

The exact location is literally everywhere, ever few seconds.

olsborg · March 2015

It happens anywhere, even on a flat paved road.

technohic · March 2015

Seriously look at reverting the change you did in 1.6 that was supposed to fix getting caught on small objects. That is when it started. I can deal with avoiding small objects rather than invisible glue.

MasterSpatula · March 2015

Back to the appearance issue: I actually prefer this. On my guar, I'd rather have nothing than the armor. I really don't like the way armor looks on a guar.

Locations don't seem to be the issue, as I've had this happen numerous occasions in various locations. It only seems to happen if you've been riding for length of time. It rarely happens when you first get on your mount mostly when you've been on it for a bit.

To me, it seems as if the code is hitting a hiccup with the input command for forward. As if it has to reset and dump it's information.

Natjur · March 2015

For me, its never the same location, its just every X seconds. So to get past this, I just keep spamming the sprint button. For me its like the game misses a packet of data (me telling the server that I am still holding the forward key) so the server just thinks I have stopped.

Spamming the sprint key fixes this for me

Gina, it is everywhere. In a city, on a road, overland, PVE, PVP. It happens everywhere and all the time. It is not a one time thing. It will happen riding between the bank in Auridon to the wayshrine or the wayshrine in Belkarth to the stables or down the road in Craglorn or across the landscape in Cyrodiil. I am truly surprised that you aren't aware of this issue. It is not something you can recreate other than just getting on the horse and riding it. Apparently, this is not something that the devs do/need to do? If I reported it each and every time this happened, I'd send in 100 tickets in a ten minute span. It is THAT prevalent and cannot be missed if you're riding a mount. If it were just me, I'd just report it and be done, but it is everyone in all of my guilds that this occurs to as well. I've read numerous posts about this, so I'm surprised that it still needs investigating.

Honestly this happens everywhere for everyone all the time. I know this because it happens to me every time I'm on my mount and as the GM of a large guild, I hear complaints every moment of everyday.

I am in disbelief that you are even asking this question. This did not occur in 1.5 it has occurred on every patch since including PTS. Hope this helps.

I prefer having 2/3 visual upgrades lol. I think the bags make you more of a target in Cyro (the more mass, the more you stand out). We should be able to select which one(s) to display.

They are only mortals and they do have other things to do apart from work in order to survive day to day. Things like eating, and sleeping, and presenting offerings of defecation to the porcelain alter. Then there's a point of insuring that their mental health doesn't plummet such as watching a movie, playing a game, and the other thing.

Or to put it another way: "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy."

You had me with you until the BOLDed stuff showed up....

and I couldn't stop laffin', see there is this game out there that would drive them absolutely bonkers.

If I reported every time it did this to me when riding a mount, with my location, I'd only be making reports about it during gameplay. I'm not attempting to call this out of be a jerk either. I really would literally just be making reports all day while I played. It doesn't really bother me too much though and this was a just sayin' moment.

Correct, it cannot go upstairs at a speed greater than 1 mph.

OMG every single spot in the game where there is the slightest rise you cross over the speed of the mount is reduced to around 5% of normal ride speed for about .7 second.

Just enter cyrodiil and ride sprint up any step hill and you will see the constant stops happening.

I will give you the same answer I gave you the last time you asked this:

It happens in every zone in the game, every 10 feet, whenever the Z axis of the terrain changes in any way.

This is also why pets decide to stop attacking too [forever] until they are unsummoned and resummoned. I spend 10% of my gameplay just resummoning my stupid pets.

Uhm, it's pretty much everywhere. With grass on, you can't even tell if it's a tiny pebble or just flat ground.

Too many moonsugar-filled rats.

Vahrokh · March 2015

@ZOS_GinaBruno the issue:

1) Seems to happen sligthly more at prime time
2) It may happen everywhere the terrain "sectors" join each other. In particular, if you enter Belkart coming from the bank and going towards the stables, it's almost a given you'll get the glitch.
3) The issue is greatly amplified when running fast.
4) The issue is amplified after 2-3 zone changes, it looks like there are memory / resource leaks at play.

Basically the mount insta-halts then one or more of the following may happen:

1) Mount just insta-halts, some times it "bounches" back one (in game) meter. Then you have to make it go again from stand-still speed. This is why in PvP it's so dramatic.

2) Pets may despawn. Only some times they respawn by themselves.

3) Rare times, the game completely freezes and needs to be terminated with CTRL+ALT+DEL.
