Just wondering, quit playing the game last year after unbearable lag. How is it now?

    Depends. I'm using my phone as a personal hotspot on the 3G network and getting 400-600 ping normally which is playable. If you've got better connection I've seen people say they get 100-200. I've also found that Eastern States people seem to get a better connection with NA, wheras Western Aussies tend to get it better on EU.
    I have departed into the great unknown that is outside the game and the forums, and wish you well in your Tamriel adventures!

    I'm in CQ so it's usually 310 -350 range bit of a pain in Cyrodiil.

    It's improved a lot for me. I had to quit last year as well due to unbearable lag, but returned in the past few months and it's been fine mostly even in Cyrodiil - though admittedly I haven't spent a lot of time there :smile: (NA PC server, haven't tried EU).

    Sounds promising, might give it ago again, gotta re-install it on my PC now, that's gonna be a massive pain!

    When Orsinium 1st came out the lag was terrible (frequently 999+) and frame rate low too. Both would jump around a lot. Better now though. Don't know how much of this is due to being in SEQ or just the number of people in zone at once. I'm less then a 1km from the local exchange with good ADSL2.
