Console pvp, will it ever get better?

Lag is worse than ever before. EVERY update it gets worse.

Ive stayed away from pvp for weeks, maybe months just because it's been a hell hole. I decide to hop in with a few friends and both campaigns on xbox NA(scourge & haderus) are an epic failure in regards to lag and console freezes.

I turned my character to look at a wall breach, and console locked up. Now I'm forced to wait... been in a loading screen for 10 minutes, just to get back in.

I'm sure I'm dead or will just fail to load, then try again.

Pvp on console is an epic failure, it's amazing that these issues can't be addressed.

Edit: clarified campaigns.

    I appreciate your attempt at humor, bored I guess?

    Are you saying xbox NA is a dead server?

    Scourge and haderus are the exact opposite of dead.

    He's saying if you have a good, stable internet connection to your console, such as a reliable provider coupled with an Ethernet cable, then in low pop campaigns you shouldn't have any Lag. However the Lag does start when you're in a fight with 12+ in your render view.

    But honestly the PvP population is so terribly unbalanced on Xbox NA. EVERYONE and their Niece twice removed plays on Haderus. Scourge is second but empties out toward the midnight hours. And besides the Under 50 one, all the other campaigns are void and not worth playing in since they're usually dominated by that one group in that one Alliance that smothers the map if you even try to take anything back.

    I've specifically stated that I am in fact playing or was playing in scourge, that was actually empty. A friend queued us for haderus, that's where it got ugly. Like stated before, my console locked up as soon as I noticed a breach in a keep wall.

    2/4 group members console's crashed. Both of us had 10+ minutes load before we were able to get back to the character.

    I have a wired connection to the xbox, I have cable internet, fastest in the city(Comcast) is the only cable provider here.

    It just seems Mr. Yodi is just trolling me. Am I just suppose to pvp in empty servers? Is that the joke he's getting at? People are stupid if they choose to play in a populated server?

    These issues with pvp lag are the main reason I stick to IC. These issues are a non issue typically in IC.

    Of course I could pvp in a dead campaign, if I enjoyed killing wolves in the wilderness. Where do scourge and haderus fit into the "dead campaigns?"

    it's not that hard to understand that bad internet can't handle 200+ people at the same time.

    I played with 125mbs internet for a year and never had any problems .

    at 20mbs you are SOL.

    These issues with pvp lag are the main reason I stick to IC. These issues are a non issue typically in IC.

    It always seems that these stability problems are varied in intensity instead of generally affecting everyone the same. My console's connection is with an Ethernet cable as well (with the same provider) and I manage to more often not crash in Cyrodiil, however larger battles drop the frames significantly, and I have crashed while using the Transitus shrines.

    It sucks that you specifically get hit so hard. Only other things I could note are to try and stay away from fights that are the largest.

    I typically do. I really do! I mainly stick to IC districts while in PvP. Of course the last keep was being taken by EP. If we lost that we lost emp, it wasnt my main/ guest so I wasn't worried. I pushed the group to stay at the last keep. 2/4 of us were kicked our and had our consoles lock up. By the time either of us got back into the campaign, the keep was lost.

    Clearly I knew the risk, mainly due to the large pop at the keep.

    Just amazed that apparently If you wish to pvp, in cyrodil, you are forced to playing in "dead" canpaigns, apparently... right @KingYogi415 ?

    You're sooooo wrong about it being a client side issue. I have 165mbs on wired connection and exactly what the OP describes happened to me tonight as well as earlier this week.
