PS4 Freezing indefinitely.

So both while in cyrodil and wrothgar when a fight begins the game will freeze up indefinitely. I close app come back dead.

The game would minor freeze before patch but would catch itself up and be fine.

I will be turning off the damage counter in hopes this fixes it.

    Is it combat text that's freezing it? If so, definitely turning it off... the random freezes are VERY annoying. It's happening 10-20 times per day...

    Also, the group finder tool is a nightmare... 30-40 minute wait times for a random grouping are terrible. We even did a test of it with our guild, whereby we had about 30 of us queue up at the same time for a random dungeon (with a wide variety of tanks/dps/healer roles) - and still took 5 minutes for the fastest, and left about 15 of us waiting for more than 25 minutes to get a group... only to have people in that group just leave and meaning a re-queue was needed.

    The estimated times are chocolate teapots... it says 6 mins and 03 seconds and keeps that estimate even after you've already been queued for 35 minutes???

    The new DLC is average at best too... its frustrating with so many people running around and dragging guards into your vicinity and landing you with a bounty!!!

    I turned it off too... but still had a freeze late last night. So I don't think we can solely lay the blame on combat text.. would love more people to start testing and trying this out and let us know the quick fix... evidently the people who were used for the PTS really didn't do a good job... probably just did it to play before anyone else and not actually report issues etc...

    Same here, thought it might help to turn off combat text but still continues to freeze up and the framerate drops in city's is unplayable, major hitching and hang ups. Please ZOS you really need to look into this ASAP!

    Haven't experienced my PS4 freeze for more than a few seconds when playing ESO, which I consider to be stutters from drastically low FPS situations curtesy of the Thieves Guild Patch.

    Then again, I have mostly avoided Cyrodiil for the time being due to lag. Hopefully Scrolling Combat Text was the culprit and is fixed now for you!

    Go into IC, freeze every 5 seconds, have to restart the game and then i freeze again.

    Get at least 10 CE erros a day.

    Thank you zos for the bug infested patch, only game i know that actually makes the game more buggy per patch. Well Done has to be some kind of record.

    Whats worse is that because of PC you knew how buggy this patch was and still gave it to console anyway.

    Same here it froze and crashed in city of ash and elden hollow, in my group the game crashed at same time, personally i wouldn't recommend anyone buying this game now, it's bugged up to the eye balls, they made a perfectly good game just about unplayable, after this thieves guild DLC, and then some before, never mind us public paying for this DLC, they should be paying us to download this bugged up mess.

    Freezes seem to be very frequent when running near Stormheaven fountain. Btw the "stability situation" generally got worse after TG, hope Z. can fix it.

    Experienced this freezing during city of ash daily. Every group I got into never got past the fire dragon.

    I had this happen 4 times in the last 10 minutes trying to complete the Vile Laboratory quest. I almost miss bluescreening - those I can just submit the report for.

    I did not have a freezing problem til yesterday. Then it froze up 3 times doing a random dungeon. I think the game may have froze up on the other players also but not sure since none of them talk. There were also issues where it showed 7 people in the group. Made things strange watching the life bars to know when to cast Breath of life. I tried to get the leader to kick the wrong ones from the group but he/she would not. Maybe they couldn't hear me? IDK?
