I have spent many hours this past weekend in imperial city. It's been great fun, the mix of pve and pvp mix can suck sometimes when your group is small, but when a 12v12 battle happens it can be some of the best gameplay eso offers. The feeling of winning 8v20 is next to nothing else gaming can offer.

That said. How is it not a #1 priority for zos to fix the issue with the PRIMARY feature of one of only two total dlcs? The fact that the Molag bal and the entire middle portal spawns of the sewers don't work, is astonishing.

I would assume that when an issue is this big, with a major feature being totally broken with the game (not laggy, not "how you want it to work") but genuinely broken, that they would prioritize a team of people to fix it.

Like a "everyone's working overtime to fix it" response to it. It's been ignored and left broken FOR MONTHS!

If a crown store item was failing to allow you to buy it, you think that would go unfixed?

Say the new, widely criticized hero costume. If it was glitching And no one could actually purchase it, you think that would go unfixed?

How is this acceptable? Please give me an answer I can understand in the slightest.

    I would be careful claiming things like this as a fact, since I have been completing the Central event several times over the past week.

    It could be I am on another platform (PC EU) than you are ?

    No one ever said it was acceptable. There are a ton of bugs in the game that have been there for ages, and a ton more to come, sadly, you might want to get used to it......

    Is this an old post, because Molag has been working fine since they claimed they fixed it. The only bugs that really annoy me in IC is when you charge into the floor and get stuck. Usually happens when you try gap closing over gratings.

    ps4/NA in Skull of Corruption- I have only been able to get Molag to spawn twice since the Orsinium DLC dropped. Have waited for more than an hour and a half down there 3 times to see if I was missing it. Nope. There were times when 1 or 2 middle portals would spawn but that was it. It IS broken on certain platforms on certain servers. Azura's Star works fine but not some of the shorter campaigns. Molag does NOT spawn

    Ah, I can't comment on console. But on PC it definitely seems fixed. I killed it once, then literally waited around and it respawned again shortly after.

    It was broken for a very long time on PC. Unfortunately on console you have to wait even longer that fix to get released.

    This was supposed to have been fixed in the patch we got a few days ago on consoles. Is it still broken?

    Also, you do realize there is a 20 minute respawn time (tho i think the last patch reduced this) for the event right?

    Are the center blue portals up but no adds there or are the blue portals not showing?

    If they put the fix in that went on pc, it should be working then, in fact by the time you do the outer ring the inner has started to spawn again, I know the consoles are behind in patches and fixes, but it does work well now on pc, I was just in there a few hours ago.

    They did tell us it was fixed in one patch and it was not, the second patch did seem to fix it.

    On PS4 EU, our guild went there last Thursday or Friday and it wouldn't spawn. Spent about an hour and all we got were the outer portals...

    They released two fixes for that. The first fix being CS employees patroling the sewers of every campaign every few hours or so and letting the event spawn manually, the second being the actual fix (live on PC at the very least).

    Edit: By the way, I think your opinion on what is "acceptable" varies widely from ZOS' . They let whole major patch cycles lapse to bother fixing such high impact exploits like multiple mundus stones, Axeploiting or penetration bugs ...

    It's okay, we still have bugs that have been here since beta :tongue:
    Seems to be working on PC NA though, killed him a couple hours ago. Hope this gets fixed for you sooner than ZOS' usual soon^tm though.

    I understand the frustration but at this point it may be better to just laugh it off by the way. ZOS break things more often than they fix them and don't exactly hurry to fix what they break/what has been broken forever and some more. It's funny, infuriating, and it's only getting worse now that they're all busy designing new mounts and costumes. I highly doubt it'll ever get better.

    didn't they say something about molag bal not spawning while people who have killed him before are in the center?

    Is this a L2P issue?

    Xbox na. It doesn't work

    Yea, thanks for the info but we are aware. We would hit the middle multiple times with blue portals up. We cleared the outer rings and it never spawned once.

    I hear you. Bugs are one thing, but this is a major issue. That's why i speak of it being "acceptable"

    Let's say destiny releases a new dlc. A raid. You run the entire raid only to get to the end, and the boss doesn't spawn. Would the fix take months? Or hours? That's the difference.

    Thanks for many sideways remarks, but it's not a l2p issue or an ignorance issue. It's simply broken on every campaign on Xbox one (na at least)

    Hopefully it gets fixed soon.

    I agree we're paying for content that doesn't even work and YOU KNOW IT DOESN'T WORK. We deserve compensation or something to even validate paying you. Right now we are handing money over to you people, or should I say criminals, for half of what we're paying for.

    Funny thing is, yes console patches are behind, because of 3rd party verification through PSN and Microsoft.

    But, Molog Bal still does not work on PS4 even though we got the Cyrodil health bug they knew about and still sent our way.

    I understand the verification system, even appreciate the fact it's general design is to keep both the game and online systems safe and operational but with the holidays ZOS is easily two and it feels like four patches behind on console.

    And while being behind still manages to give us broken *** they knew was broke sometimes as much as two week before the patches hit live servers.

    That is very poor planning, communication, or cooperation between ZOS and PSN and Microsoft or all of the above.

    Console is not broken, I have done it several times over the last couple weeks. They even addressed it again in the last patch. Have you tried again?

    Ran sewers all weekend. Hit the middle 20+ times. Camped multiple times (enough to hit other portals twice) and it never spawned. Haderus campaign, Xbox, na server.

    I maybe should have worded the title differently, and not ask how it's acceptable, but instead how is it not a top level priority to get fixed?

    That's why I stopped buying their things. Seriously. For example, there was a problem with infinite login screens and it took them MONTHS to fix it because they kept releasing DLC over DLC without fixing problems. I swear that I love the game, but I hate this behavior. People should really stop paying until they fix at least the major problems of the game.
