    I'd love to be angry with everyone here, but I can't see what's going on with the game past the insane lag spikes that came along with the Thieves' Guild update.

    I agree the PvP is broken but the PVE isn't that bad Its just finding a good group is my biggest issue since most console players play like they've never seen a video game before.

    Yawn! And yet I find less bugs and lag than I did in Oblivion.
    Don't worry people this one is just a drama queen. The world will continue to turn for the rest of us.

    wow, no mention of NB by the OP... I'm impressed.

    The OP plays 99% pvp, the OP runs 7x impen, 15% crit resist in Cp, has more than 18k hp and does basic things that are obvious but people ignore such as holding block when capping a resource before the Vd/Proxy Skilled nb's come.

    So the OP rather enjoys killing nb's, it's a bit annoying when they run and escape but oh well.

    ...


    It's weird AF talking in 3rd person like that.

    Don't worry WW2 have a master plan, just wait for the "next" DLC in a couple of months and it will all be fixed! At least, that's what they last told us... or was that from before Orsinium?! Can't remember, it's like I'm stuck in the möbius of time... where time becomes a loop...

    The unbalance, the bugs, the load screens... on console it's 10x worse as zenimax feel that it's ok to pretty much Kill them game and then leave it for 4-5 months.

    Roots - There so strong, stamina builds are ok, magicka are easy kills with them, only templars have a chance. You can't nerf dodge rolling which the pretty much the certain way to get rid of roots and make it so roots have no cc immunity LOL, Fix this , needs a cc timer, needs easy way to remove it, magicka builds need an immunity skill like shuffle.

    Shield Stacker - Before the easy mode sorc come in here and are like, easy counter etc... just cc them etc... No decent sorc ever runs out of stamina with tri pots xD , Not sure why people think having 25k+ shields against magicka builds is ok. It's just not, hardened + harness magicka should not be able to stack, should be one or the other. Sorc can throw 10k dmging frags at you, sure high dmg skill but they shouldn't be able to have high dmg and be the best pvp tanks in the game... xD

    VD - I use this set, i'm not happy with the set as i feel you shouldn't be punished if someone in your alliance dies next to you, what happens if there just a bad player with a glass build, because their next to you it's ok to be be hit for 10k? Nah REMOVE AOE CAPS then remove this set. In the mean time i need something to kill the mass zerging in the game, pugs will be pugs i guess.

    Long Load Screen - These are so annoying especially in times when there's an emp push, you sit in a load screen and after 5 mins the game kindly tells you it's a long one (TY OBVIOUS), happens when you even spawn at a forward camp. Shouldn't be hard to fix it, not sure why zos is regularly failing too.

    The Inbalance - Sorc and magicka nb rule pvp. It's a fact, people may argue against it, but everyone knows this is true. This shouldn't be a thing. Things like the templar having a house, dk's not having a class execute because they want that class to be 'different' xD They are not acceptable answers, balance the game.

    Bugs - Theres so many annoying ones, your character is perm cc, you can't get on your horse for 10 mins (still not sure of a temp fix this patch... Basically lose the ability to mount until you die), blocking doesn't work half the time, At least try to fix them instead of glossing over them and bringing out useless costumes and boring DLC's.

    Healing - Also another one i remembered, If you are going to heal someone you should need to have Line of Sight, This idea that people can spam a heal from 2 floors under and still heal the guy your fighting is stupid. Templars just sit in the corner and heal the zerg running into the keep, they are completely safe and can heal through a wall, come one at least make healing require a bit of effort and a bit of skill, maybe healers will use more than 1 skill and use healing springs or such instead of spamming a skill while facing the wall. Same with healing ward, i go to kill a guy and someone who has no idea and is through 2 walls casts a healing ward which goes onto the guy i'm fighting? What?

    I could go on forever but my annoyance has been cured a little bit for now.

    #Rantover.

    retreating maneuvers in roots/caltdrops it grants immunity to roots ijs it grants immunity to them and removes them...

    there are some truths to this but the first is common sense use retreating maneuvers sacrifice a one time use for immunity vs lose all stam trying to dodgeroll. and for sorcs use shield breaker I don't see the issue there is a set to counter it just because you don't use it/ don't want to use it doesn't mean you cant. ;) lol

    Maybe edit your title to "PVP is so broken right now", as, you know, there is more to this game than PVP.

    Yeah, that's the problem with these threads.

    I have had lag spikes from the start, the loading screens have gotten longer for some reason, it takes at least 3-5 minutes to go from character selection screen to actually being in game.
    And when even using wayshrines I have enough time to pick up a book and read a page or so before it loads.

    the biggest problem I have with the game is that in trying to make it appeal to both singleplayer and multiplayer gamers they have created this in-between thing, where multiplayer is basically dungeons/raids and pvp and questing and just running around is singleplayer. I experimented and questing in a group, even a small one is simply not much fun. And for a casual mmorpg player like me that means the game turns into mostly singleplayer.

    If the game is so broken why are you playing? Honest question. I see so many people just claim it is unplayable and is garbage so why do you play still?

    It costs so much stamina though, xD, i kind of want a magick version of a snare remover, stamina have shuffle so their fine but magicka suffer so much. Really hoping they tone down snare, snares should be a certain skill you use specifically to snare them and not built in into skills people will always use like gap closers, like caltraps people use it specifically for the snare + large aoe.

    Now with sorc i never had a problem with them on a stamina build, because i only have to get through hardened ward to actually dmg them, half their hp as a shield is ok, but when then stack it with harness and have 25k combined which also gives them back resources then it's annoying. It's so annoying hard for a magicka user to kill a half ok sorc, because the shield stack is OP.

    QFT! And there you have it people... NB is ineffective and squishy. Can I have my DOT removing cloak back now?

    I was kind of refering to the proxy/det nb's, all their actuall pvp ability seems to be in that 1 combo, if you survive it they kind of spam cloak and then just die. Now good nb's that actually have sustain and no how to play their class, now there tricky to kill, combination of cripple/merciless/lotus/fear/concealed means, your snared, they have 40% movement, you have a high dot on your, everytime your out of cc immun you get feared, concealed that hit for 5k and you have to watch out the the resolve prov otherwise it's over. Oh and if they actually know how to use image then you need to start worrying xD.
    If the game is so broken why are you playing? Honest question. I see so many people just claim it is unplayable and is garbage so why do you play still?

    Well broken and unplayable mean different things.

    Broken - I enjoy the game so i play the game, zos broke the game over time with bandaids, false promises and catering to people who likely aren't playing anymore. Hence why i'm complaining, instead of fixing the game issues they keep releasing bad content which bring more issues, downward spiral pretty much.

    Unplayable - Again this could be at the time they complain it's unplayable, this could be due to lag as the main factor where abilities don't go off or anything. At that time it's unplayable so they stop playing it at that time

    I think what you think is that people are saying they the game is so bad 100% of the time that they can't play yet still do. I don't think people mean that, only in prime time or such when the lag hits hard do people complain and then likely go off the game.

    Some of us mostly pve so when you complain about a class if they change certain skills/ abilities your going to mess up the pve element and spoil some one else's game.

    So when I take my pve sorc into cyrodil I get destroyed no problem as I am not built equipped for the place , There are counters to most things in pvp try using them {cough. cough, shield breaker}

    Everything the OP said, and the LAG that comes w/ no sound is destroying the PvP in this game. We have lost some of our elite players this past month to BDO because of these issues. Stop adding to this game until you fix the current issues.
    PC NA DC 4eva! I try my very best. If it is not good enough for you too bad! Playing off and on since April 2014 CP2009.

    Not for all of us some of us only enjoy the PVP portion of the game and would rather do anything else then do PVE.If it wasn't for PVP and the PVP community in this game majority of us wouldn't even be here.

    And thats fair enough, i'm just saying his thread title is a little, misleading.

    Its commonsense, friend!!!
    When a player says the game is broken, its obvious that he is referring to PvP.
