    20-40% fps loss? This is NOT something you let go live.

    Yeah, my audio is weirdly broken. I have audio files cutting in and out, music tracks instantly switching from one to another (like a CD skipping mid-way and going right into the next track), and this weird sigh/hissing sound which plays every few seconds in Hew's Bane. Not to mention, on a GTX 980 Ti, I can't get more than about 40FPS on average and have incredible screen tearing.

    All this.

    And the hissing sound is so f*cking annoying.

    Nobody else seems to have a problem as asking in /zone and guild chat nobody's reporting problems, but for it me's almost unplayable with audio because loud static keeps going through my headset, the sound of a creaking boat, other sound queues aren't playing until 10 seconds later or I have 2 or 3 music tracks cutting in and out of one another.

    ZOS marketing folks dont control my wallet. I do. And instead of subbing for the next month Ill just buy a costume in BDO :P Im pretty sure I can get at least a month of gameplay out of that game...

    Tho tbh... the way that game handles cosmetic progression (there is none, you wear a potato sack from lev1 to endgame unless you buy a costume for $30) is a rip-off. So I probably wont be giving them any more money either.

    Yep. I think a lot of the changes have to do with pushing out updated/modified clients on top of the DLC so you get a ton of other problems layered on top of the DLC, and it makes the DLC look worse than it is. The DLC isn't bad. It's all client issues.

    My fps dropped twice to around 7 fps in the new zone...I normally get around 80 to 90 fps. This was using the 64bit client!

    Way to go ZOS, you screwed up the game performance once again.

    Are all of you using the new 64-bit client by any chance?

    Audio is totally FUBAR for me as well on the 64-bit version, but the 32-bit version seems to be unaffected (at least on my end), so I've switched back to using the standard client for now. 64-bit clearly needs a lotmore testing.

    Running around Hew's Bane is kinda painful with the worse performance on 32-bit, but I'd rather deal with that than those awful loud static noises.

    They´ve been told about this. 40% performance loss on 32bit client and 20% performance loss on 64bit client compared to latest orsinium live patch 2.2.11 was not important enough to fix before bringing it live.


    Why go live with this update with the known performance problems until they were fixed. ZOS it seems with every new dlc or update you just create more problems to add to the ever increasing old problems that are still not fixed or addressed.

    Because content = assets (art, music, models, writing, game mechanics) which are 100% finished. The client is not optimized, which is distinctly not content.

    These new problems are related to the 64bit client change and possibly the move to DX11. They have nothing to do with the content itself, these are technical issues that will likely be resolved within this week (if I'm wrong, so be it).

    There's still quite a few broken game mechanics in ESO, some of which have been around since launch.
