Aren't things like *loading screen times* supposed to get better over time?

I have a pretty decent rig:
GTX 770 gpu
i7 2600k 3.40 GHz 3.40 GHz cpu
16 GB RAM

It's not the best, but certainly more than enough to run this game on Max settings if I wish. Performance has never really been an issue, and I've been playing since launch. Even when lag gets bad in Cyrodiil, I still average 40-60 FPS (capped at 60) I get 40-100 with sync turned off.

Sure I've always had the occasional endless loading screen. That's been an issue since launch. Particularly loading in or out of dungeons.

But ever since IC went live, loading screens suck. I mean all of them. It doesn't seem to matter if the zone is empty or not, it takes me 70-90 seconds for every single zone, every single time. it used to take about 20 seconds tops.

So what gives? What's the deal ZOS?

Over the course of the life span for an MMO, performance is supposed to get better, not worse.

    Perhaps everyone should be tuning in to ESO Live. They update us on known issues and the last 2 ESO Lives have made a statement on the Loading Screens issue, and yet people are still complaining about them...

    Perhaps someone should make a sticky about this?

    I have better things to do with my time then to watch every episode of ESO live. If they have addressed this issue, then great. It should be posted all over the place that it's a known issue and they are working hard to fix it.

    In fact, a sticky thread for "known issues being worked on" is a great idea. But the fact that such a thread doesn't exist just enforces my point.

    What that you are lazy? By watching the Lives you could get informed on so many things that you wouldn't have to waste time posting about it here. Seek your answers, don't have them bottle-fed to you.

    More to the point the threads about this are being made so wearily often that it is addressed in them also. So yeah, you are definitely way too lazy...

    I do not know what this "Heroes of the Storm" is, but it sounds like you're trying to advertise a game no one cares about.

    I do when I see one, or when I am making a thread.

    Griping about the same tired topic over and over and over, advertising another game to attempt to get others to quit, stuff like that I have nothing positive to say about.

    Are you serious? I'm lazy because I don't watch every episode of ESO live? LMAO!! Some of us have a life.

    And are you really suggesting that expecting them to keep us informed about existing known issues somewhere BESIDES ESO live is the same thing as being bottle fed? Maybe they could do what every other MMO does and POST the fact that they are working on known issues somewhere that people would see it? isn't that a novel idea hmm??

    And I was even suggesting you had a good idea with the sticky thread. That was YOUR suggestion no?

    lmao... some people.

    You seriously need to get off your judgmental high horse and stop insulting people just because they have better things to do with their lives than watch every episode of ESO live. If they posted this stuff on something as simple as a sticky thread, maybe there wouldn't be such a large amount of posts from people wondering what's going on.

    Actually it wouldn't really change anything. People just plain don't bother to check into anything before they complain and that's what grinds my gears. I apologize for coming off so offensive but I see these complaints so wearily often I'm like FOR GOD'S SAKE ENOUGH ALREADY WE GET IT!

    They broke after the IC patch. I really didn't think they'd be broken this long, it's a really big inconvenience for a day when you can't play much

    I wouldn't say "broke" per say but I suppose it's a word lol and they are working on it as much as they can but the biggest issue for them is trying to find what's causing it. In the meantime all they can do is behind-the-scenes minor improvements and the like.
