How are the loading screens since patch?

I heard they Nerfed jesus beam and shards and eruption to improve performance. Did this improve the loading screen times?

I assume that is the performance they were trying to fix since it affects the most people?

    Why would you nerf ingame skills to optimize performance ? only incompetent devs do that...

    i am not asking why. I am stating what they said, so i want to know if there were positive results from what they said or is it back to where we were and lets try something else?

    Well... My main is a Templar, which probably doesn't have anything to do with it other than that I'm the walking nerfed in Cyro (all the hate from Zos...), and prior to the patch I had 2-3 seconds loading screens while TP in Cyro or respawning to a keep. After yesterday's patch I had 3-4 mins loading screen, occasionally longer. There's hardly any HD activity just an occasional blip, otherwise nothing until it eventually loads.

    I haven't tried it today though.

    Edit* A quick test today gave that the loading screens were roughly as fast as before yesterdays patch. This on a nearly empty NA Azura's server during EU daytime. I hope it stays this way tonight (my time).

    Oh gosh-darnit - so looks like no change for the better. And i really had my hopes up after reading the patch notes this time! When will i frikken-tootin learn!

    I was even ready to pack away my Shards and Jesus Beam if it meant i could load into game in less time than a music video on VH1..

    I have seen nothing but worse performance with each patch actually... my load times used to be about 5 seconds, now I can make lunch and eat it in load times. And only getting worse. Not better.

    My loading time earlier today took ages - when my character finally appeared on screen he had fallen through the floor on the upper level of elden root, for me to watch helplessly as he plummeted to the bottom level and his death!

    Would have been funny if I didn't have to then pay gold to repair all his gear.

    Ok, was still a little funny.

    They are too busy creating new content for the next 20+$ DLC and they don't have time to fix the major problems that are ruining the game.

    they didnt nerf jesus beam mate heres the change they made to skills.
    Adjusted several abilities to improve overall game performance. Affected abilities will now tick less frequently, but deal more damage such that overall damage should remain constant. The affected abilities include:
    Blazing Spear
    Consuming Darkness and its morphs
    Eruption
    Lightning Splash and its morphs
    Necrotic Orb and its morphs
    Path of Darkness and its morphs
    Radiant Destruction and its morphs
    as usual templars and sorcs have exploded in to rage even though all classes are affected.the damage should be the same but in the case of beam probably better in pvp as that first tick will be bigger.

    Jesus, game just started, 3 minutes to go from the login screen to the character selection and after another 2-3 minutes for the new loading screen the game crashed. It's becoming really annoying. Almost 3 months and this problem is still here. 3 months!

    it is just not really nerfed as I said may actually benifit in pvp with the bigger crit tick. Having said that it will affect things that need a proc like item sets and some skills and passives Dk's come out better from this but the skoria set using dk's will not be pleased.

    How are the loading screens since patch? haha bad :D

    on the other hand i think that these adjustments have something to do with overall game performance that reflects in higher fps and less lags , specially in PVP and maybe people getting less kicks from server . at least i hope :)

    Oh yeah I was discussing it here:

    http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/230248/dot-tick-frequency#latest

    The skoria dudes aren't gonna like it like you say but it depends where the ticks are in the dot to whether it will be better for the caster or the person being casted at.

    If they really think changing those skills is what is going to change the whole crap here in this game even slightly, then they are beyond help.
