    Hello all,

    Our developers are aware that this is an issue for players. They are currently working on a resolution, and in the meantime support may give some suggestions to try. This is not implying that the fault is necessarily system-side, but it has resolved it for some players. Offering these troubleshooting solutions helps to rule out common issues. We make every effort to offer these solutions while our engineers investigate issues affecting players on a mass scale.

    Thank you for your patience while we investigate this issue.

    I get the issue a few times per day where I load onto a character and am at a wayshrine, within 2-3 seconds my screen flashes and I'm below the ground surface, falling into infinity for a few seconds after which I get another (long 10-20x longer then they used to be) loading screen after which I'm at a different wayshrine and the game starts to function in a playable fashion. Between this, other long loading screens, crashes, freezes, disconnects etc, I lose a MINIMUM of 40 minutes per day trying to play the game. It's often over an hour of lost time..... This isn't even getting into terrible ping, particularly in Cyrodil or IC, and a myriad of gameplay bugs and exploits. I said in another thread I'm 0.01% away from leaving and allot of my friends are already gone because of these issues.
    Semi retired from the trading aspects of the game.

    I experienced this today; first time ever. It didn't kill me, but I started to fall through the floor before the loading caught up.

    I think it may have something to do with how laggy the server was last night and this morning. I hope the restart took care of that, if nothing else.

    I submitted a ticket (Incident: 150920-001921) since this happened on 2 chars of mine. Not only did they fall thru the world, but they were new characters and were teleported back to the start of the tutorial and couldn't get past the doors back into the "normal" game.

    After going back and forth with email responses for 4 days from 6 different service reps (never the same one answered) The issue was never resolved. Both characters were rendered useless.

    Instead of just just moving the chars back to where they were supposed to be, service reps consistently gave advice on selective startup or port forwarding, never even bothering to read the issue in the ticket. Hell, if they had just bothered to log in to one of the characters they would have SEEN the issue, yet instead I get some manual page 1 troubleshooting guide for customer support beginners.

    I finally just cancelled my ESO Plus subscription and told them to not freaking bother and I just deleted the 2 characters.

    Wonderful Customer service support.

    I logged in at Imperial City, fell to my death and lost my Tel Var stones. Lucky for me I deposited all but 100 stones before logging off

    The place I landed in looked like an empty blue chess board. I thought about rezzing where I landed, but did not want to chance being eternally stuck in no-mans land waiting on a GM to pull me out.

    That happens to me multiple times a day. You log in and start to fall, but when the screen catches up you just do a little in-place jump and you are just fine.

    It happened again this morning, in the same place, with the same character. It's the first character I loaded into after starting up the computer and letting it sit for a few minutes. The location is the crafting area of Elden Root, right by either the clothing or blacksmithing table. At the moment, no other character has experienced this. But I also haven't tried to log on first time with a different character the first thing in the morning after a fresh computer startup, yet.

    Yeah just had it happen again to me in Craglorn. Logged into my character and I was in Craglorn then all of the sudden nothing but blue sky. I fell for around 10 seconds then I landed on some rock. I immediately jumped which helped me bounce off a few other rocks. I finally landed with enough health to still be alive. :)

    Sooo.. Today, I found a new way to die....

    Apparently, after logging out at the banker, I fell part way thru the roof of Eldon Root and died in midair.. see those NPCs down there? Yeah.. I was inside above them.
    Power level to CP160 in a week:
    Where is the end game? You just played it.
    Why don't I have 300+ skill points? Because you skipped content along the way.
    Where is new content? Sigh.

    If that issues are not server-side...
    Well, maybe ZOS would explain how we can use our teleportation power for better purposes?

    And once again, same issue. Didn't die, but I fell through the floor in the Elden Root services area to the wayshrine "teleport" area "beneath" it.

    At the moment, this is the only place where I have a falling problem (that I've discovered).

    For reference, no addons. I repair after every patch.

    System is:

    Win7 Pro 64-bit SP1
    AMD Phenom II x4 CPU (at 3.2GHz)
    8 GB RAM
    1 TB mechanical hard drive
    GTX 960 (2GB RAM)

    I run the game from the eso.exe file, as administrator.

    This is happening to me too! It was an occasional thing (maybe once a week) but today alone I have logged in to be teleported above ground and then dropped 4 different times across 3 toons. The first one was kinda fun because I was dropped onto a mountain top outside of town. That is until I was unable to cross the boundary from the opposite side to get DOWN....had to port to a friend to free myself.

    The other two drops I survived because the distance wasn't that great but the game just barely dropped my lvl 8 toon for the last time from like 1000' up and fell to my death. Death = repairs = the game now costing me gold.

    FIX THIS FREAKIN' BUG

    (and yes I submitted a bug report along with a SS of me on top of the mountain looking down on Windhelm)

    While I am not dying, everytime I log into Grahtwood to do research at the Blacksmithing station, my toon experinces a loading screen, then falling and landing at the wayshrine on the floor below. EVERY SINGLE TIME! Also, since IC every single time I log in, my status shows me as Away. I've changed it with the drop down arrow as well as the scripting call: /script SelectPlayerStatus(1) and it goes online, but once I quit the game and restart it I'm set to away again.

    For the record, I've willingly gone to many areas outside the game play area by finding holes in the geometry. You can still "Teleport" to any player in your guild from those locations so you wouldn't have been "Stuck".

    Hey guys,

    I just had a really strange experience. I aimed for the thieves guild, getting right some nasty things and just fell down into this kind of martian landspace. Just for fun I respawned there and could even walk around there.
    falling.jpg

    After some time walking I found the thieves guild, but could not enter. I was simply outside the map.

    Not the first time, I have fallen down somewhere, but this was the strangest...

    Yes, this has been happening since the last major patch. Has been reported several times. I also have a screenshot gallery of me falling away from world that is probably 50 pictures deep so far. Has also cost me gold (for repairs) and tv stones when it drops me close enough to the world to die, other times I just fall so far it moves me to a wayshrine.

    I also being getting those falls since IC update getting all my chras to fall upon login, some times to die, others to simply receive some damage or others simply appearing at the wayshrine (infact i stop playing for 6 days because the first time all my characters fall and then get stuck under the places i login). After weeks of game support tickets they tell me the developers are working in a solution for the next patch. Two patch later, no solution offer in tha patch notes and we keep falling.

    Same problem here. Always seems to happen on only one of my toons, every time I log in, falling and dying, gets really annoying. :(

    I've found that every time I teleports to the South from where I'd been b4.

    Sent this info to devs via mail.
    What about you? Same southern direction? Or not?
