I tried to reply to another post about it, however for some reason i cant, and its not closed. I can reply to any other post, but not that one. Im just wondering if anyone on here has gotten a legit response from zos about if it actually is a ddos attack that has been causing the recent mass crashing and ridiculous lag spikes even in areas where there are only 1 to 2 players. Ive seen it on PC NA and XB NA, but in my experience in this game the lag has only gotten worse so im curious if its just getting worse or if its an outside issue. (the rest of this is mostly ranting)

Granted it does seem different then how the lag of the game has been, thats why im asking. And i remember a time around the thieves guild update where the game was so laggy here on xbox that you couldn't play for more than a half hour, or try to travel to a populated area, without being kicked and waiting a good 30 min to get back into eso. But that was only for a couple weeks then it was resolved. This is different than anything ive seen, and ive seen this game get progressively worse with lag, to the point where its unplayable most of the time, and to where im very close to quitting a game that i love, have put alot of time and money into (foolishly on the money part), and a game that i have exclusively played for the last year and a half ( nothing else ).

I dont want this to be to ranty, but i need to vent somewhere. Im sick of getting on every day just to get angry, even though i know i shouldn't, and then to eventually and hop on guild wars 2, or lv up my PC char some more. To be honest, i could deal with the way the games going, with the overpowered sets / proc sets, but the lag is what frustrates me the absolute most. At least then i know i did my best and lost to some op stuff, but losing to lag is infuriating. And i wonder how other games do it, like Guild wars 2 and many others, without the lag like this. But i haven't ever played an mmo on console so i really dont know if that is the reason, but it isnt as bad on pc, that i know. And i also know all games go through their times with having issues so i will 100% stick with this game to see where it goes in the future, i just wanted to say that right now that future looks bleak.

Anyway back to my main question, if anyone knows if there have been actual confirmed ddos attacks, please let me know. I dont listen to eso rumors from other players because a lot of the time they aren't true. With so many great ideas that the devs of this game had/have ( homestead, spell crafting, arenas, more areas, more classes) i hope that in the future the lag gets better, pvp finds a way to get a little better, and i hope that the game will grow. Because right now its hard to recommend this game to people, and it already has a increasingly bad rep. But i still recommend it to people in hopes that it will grow, i just tell them that pvp is a bit troublesome right now but the rest of the game is great. Anyway thanks to anyone that can help with my question.

Oh and i think a warden class would be pretty epic. If i remember correctly it was speculated this game was supposed to have 6 classes in it. I think the nightblade covered 2 of those speculations, but either way a new class would bring some more life into the game, and be awesome, if it was a little balanced....
