Horrible crippling game breaking lag!!

Alright. So I started playing at PC launch. It was ok. Game was fun and there was pretty much no lag. Then BAM!! Patch hits and there is horrible and crippling lag in PvP. Almost unplayable. I deal with it for awhile then after 8 months of it I say screw it and move on.

Then ESO finally launches on PS4 and I buy it again because it is potentially one of the best MMOs ever made IMPO. Everything is great! A lot has been fixed and there is no lag! Absolutely none!!!! Then BAM!!! A couple DLCs and a couple of patches and ESO is a lag fest!

PvP is all but unplayable. Can't see my or enemies skills going off. It stutters and jerks. No fun what so ever. Not only that but PvE is laggy too. In populated cities players and NPCs are way too slow to load. Skills and attacks are sluggish. Disconnects, blue screens and bugs that are very VERY slow to be fixed. Ahhh!

Don't get me wrong. This game is a lot of fun. I've bought it twice and paid for subscriptions but enough already. Stop simply adding stuff and fix the problems already!!! The lag is horrible and makes for a very unpleasent experience. Especially in PvP. It needs to be addressed seriously and it needs to be fixed. Now!!!!!!!!

Rant over..... I need a break. Maybe it will be better in another year......

And before you say check my internet connection..... Yeah my internet is pretty great. That's not the problem.

    Did you, or did you not, reset your router.


    Well I did, but the lag is still horrible. Yesterday I had very very bad lag, long loading screens a few crashes and a bad mood. I quit playing early and watched a bad movie to forget about the lag. But my patience is growing thin with this game. I love the PvP, but if it stays this unplayable mess after the thievensguild DLC I doubt I will buy that DLC and I will probably take a long well earned break.

    "I am a nightblade. Blending the disciplines of the stealthy agent and subtle wizard, I move unseen and undetected, foil locks and traps, and teleport to safety when threatened, or strike like a viper from ambush. The College of Illusion hides me and fuddles or pacifies my opponents. The College of Mysticism detects my object, reflects and dispels enemy spells, and makes good my escape. The key to a nightblade's success is avoidance, by spell or by stealth; with these skills, all things are possible."

    Actually I am happy that lag is effecting console and PC at the same time. ESO devs are working to fix it. It is just surprising how long it is taking.

    ZOS has worked on the lag problem since release, each time u ask them u get that "we are working on the problem" answear... All they do is making the game worse and they refuse to use money to buy some good upgrade for the servers, they refuse to hire people with knowledge and they refuse to and so on.....

    Only thing thats matter is earning bucks....
    Still a grudge, only to see false what u want and nothing less.

    Eh, my ping is usually 125 everywhere I go...except cyrodil. I head there my ping goes to 250, I go near a fight, instant 500-1200 ping. Turning my inevitable detonation into a 20 second cast, and everything else being so unreliable I might as well just use light attacks and executes and hope for the best.
