Would like to invite PvP Devs and Staff to Azura's Star for server stability and testing

Aldarenn · January 2016

I have heard that PTS testing is not the best for Cyrodiil testing and stability. As such, I recommend and invite them to NA PC Azura's Star to please enjoy the game with us as well as grab a better understanding of the issues that happen, especially during prime time hours. If you do come, please let us know!

We know we are not beta testers or even getting paid if we make a contribution to this, but a lot of us would like to see this game flourish.

If not test a current campaign, #BringbacktheWabbajack and announce a day and event on live! Let us be friends/enemies!

They know damn well what is going on.

They'd love to, there's just no eta on when that can be set up.

A pvp with the devs event to test server stability again?

Excuse me...

Anyway as I was say....sorry I just can't

Ok, now I'm good and ready.

How about Azuras star on all servers all platforms. Seems to be an Azuras star thing lol. Probably because every over campaign is a buff/grinding campaign. Removing buffs outside of pvp didn't solve the buff campaign issue as buffs from other campaigns carry over to other. I know this because I fought 3 emperors in the one campaign. Can guess how that turned out lol

"As I am a regular PvP player (Azura's Star, NA), I am fully aware of the server responsiveness problems that can result when too many players fight in one area and use too many AoE abilities. This is a problem that needs many fixes - but the main challenge we face is that we can only test these fixes on the live servers, as it is impossible to simulate live conditions on our test servers. As we obviously cannot risk introducing new problems and side-effect issues on the live servers, we need to do these changes incrementally"

It is probably worth a shot at live server testing.

They should, just asking PC NA because that's where I'm at. Last time I tried console it was much smoother than PC, but that's when there was mostly nonvet players and it was mostly fps issues. Could be different now that there are some v16 players.

AJ_1988 · January 2016

Console still isn't too bad compared to what I heard about pc but it can get hectic especially now everyone just constantly spams rapid regen instead of fighting to milk AP. IC gets pretty bad too. What annoys me most is disappearing animations don't know what's hitting you and what you are hitting and never know if my inner light is up or not. Gotta keep relogging to fix it. With that being said it may be my Xbox tho I thinks she is burning out.

@Wheeler already plays on Azuras Star.....

Totalitarian · January 2016

Sure. I could care less about if it was testing though, I'd just want to play with them

What's his toon name?

Amica · January 2016

See now that is a good post, and if zos had any sense they would accept this.
It shows one they are getting first hand player feed back aka good PR.
It shows what the players consider the most important items that need fixing aka making the population calmer.

I for one, put this challenge up... my lvl 40 toon vs any vet16 dev toon. My animation canceling macro (Standard built in mouse software) vs them, if i last more than 5 min or kill them within five min. They have to make it a priority to fix said problem.

The pvp devs have nothing to do with this.

You have to invite @Wrobel to pvp every evening for a week in azura. Maybe then he´ll realize that it´s not the time for small fixes and waiting for how changes pan out.
They have to change things drastically to alter player behavior (at this point changing the way people play is the only thing that can work imho - and you don´t change that by asking nice, they have to punish blobbing up severely). That´s the job of the combat team to do.

JaJaLuka · January 2016

It isn't just localised to the area immediately surrounding AoE using groups. It's happening server wide, sometimes when there isn't even a battle happening. Experienced it today and the only solution was to leave. It was particularly bad during one fight (small groups in open field 8 on our side and approximately the same on theirs, away from a keep while no other battle was in progress on the whole map). I could not get my attacks to hit even though I was using them right in the face of the enemies. It was quite simply impossible to play.

I agree @Wrobel should come out, but I believe people from other departments because everyone has a part in this, and just have some fun.

I heard @Wrobel just sieges, but maybe he can zerg once things are stable lol
