Jester's Festival started... And infinite loading screens too.

Game is overcrowded. I can't load zones where NPCs from these event are cause of infinite loading screens. Seriously, this game needs better servers or more instances on these maps...

But abandoning participation in event (which you were waiting for) only because developers can't manage such a big amount of people in one zone is ridiculous. -

even if we go to one city, your jester send us to the next one ... until the last daily .... and each location are overcrowded.
Also, if you tie the event to achievements, and ask us then to not start on day one ..... explain me please how we can do all in time .... RNG and recipe drop are not always done in 15 days ... learned the lesson already with other events.
You really need to rethink the travelling for your events.
And beside all that i should not have to kill my client just because you do an event ....Edited by Lauranae on March 23, 2017 6:59PM -

Not if you have a character logged into one of those locations that keeps getting endless loads. This is obviously a great thing that so many people are participating in. However, this isn't the first time these issues have popped up.
You guys really need to take large populations into account when designing events like this.

begemotz✭✭well tbh, the festival is lackluster enough that I dont think it will be a problem for long. And am I the only one who feels that more and more the game is becoming a vehicle for crownstore purchases? I mean, the only interesting items for this festival are really behind the paywall.

They had more instances and then one tamriel squeezed as many people into one instance as it could before creating another. YAY 1T

✭Why was this not fixed from last time. Having everyone go to one area is not a good business strategy.Sorcerna, proud beta sorc.
RIP April 2014 to May 31 2016 DArk Brotherhood. Out of retirement for negates and encases.
Sorcerna will be going back into retirement to be my main crafter Fall 2018. Beacuse a 8 k shield is f ing useless.
Died because of baddies on the forum. Too much qq too little pew pew.

✭✭✭✭✭No problems just now in Glenumbra on PC EU, I zoned in, picked up a quest and did a couple of delves followed by the quest follow-up and completion with not a hint of lag. Plenty of players around and everyone seemed to be doing their stuff just fine.
It looks to me like ZOS learnt the lessons from past events and spread this one out, and although I haven't tried the xp boost as I don't want it I got the impression that it's controlled from your collection rather than necessitating a return to a single quest location so if that's the case (and I'm happy to be corrected on that) then they learnt that lesson too.
If people are suffering lag due to the quest then I suggest either leaving it until tomorrow or at least specifying the quest zone and platform/server concerned.
As for the event itself, it's early days and I've only done one quest so far, but the rewards were fine and I'm amazed again that a holiday event is fully voiced and well animated. It looks thus far like a great effort. -
Cadbury✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭Did the three quests earlier today just as the crowds hit. No lag here but I was glad I got it done for today. May try to log in early tomorrow, too. If it really is just the exact same quests as people are saying, then I'll at least have my route planned out.
PS4 NA here for the record
Love the Burger King crown, btw"If a person is truly desirous of something, perhaps being set on fire does not seem so bad." -
Auldjohn✭✭✭✭No lags on PC NA. Got my Jesters Festival Invite.
Bought Jester costume, cap, and personality plus Patriarch beard.
Thus garbed, astride my somehow appropriate Cave Bear, accompanied by my Cave Bear Cub, I opened the Jesters Festival Invite.
Couldn't find Ebonheart Festival Pavilion until I visited a Wayshrine and tagged it.
Exited without using the Wayshrine then easily found Jester-King Jorunn. Got my Quest, some Gold, marked the Objective on the Map, and hitherwent. Got the item but found myself Disreputable.
Discovered that my Bounty was the reason for the event Gold "Bonus". Justice System still in full effect. The double XP alleviated the Bounty price.
Rinse & repeat several times for the next Objective. Day One: Silly though sometimes frustrating fun. My Guild's tagline is Have Fun!! Even somewhat pointless tongue-in-cheek objectives can be casual fun.

Deadly combo: Mudball someone and after that use the cherry branch to finish it off. Works on perma blocking tanks as well. -
Keillieai15✭✭It may be just me but the tons of dueling taking place by the Jesters that are giving the quests can't be helping. I really wish they had a something in place to stop the crap like that from happening. -

✭Technical issues along with a few other things are just sucking the fun out of the game, I have played a lot and a long time these loading screens are getting old and more annoying as time goes by, along with weird crashes I used to never get, or rarely get have become more frequent, the only thing I can do is limit my time in game when the frustration level goes up. It sucks being a fan of such a broken product wanting to enjoy it, guess my desire to enjoy it is greater than zos's desire to fix it -

✭I keep forgetting not to use my action button to dismount from the horse. I, again, accidently hit a NPC, then the guard came after me, and before having the chance to escape, the loading screen pops up. When the loading was over, so was I.. dead. Stupid loading screen, back again.. yayyy. Ha ha -

Three years after release we still get 30sec+ "Request Character Load" and infinite zone load .. GG ZOS!Edited by KerinKor on March 26, 2017 11:48AM -
jaye63✭✭✭✭And the possibilities are: Bad programming, 1T, bad servers, and I could list more but...
ZOS- if you think this is going to get better by just shoving it to the side, it's not. If an event of this low of a priority screws things up, just what do you think is going to happen when you release Morrowind? FIX IT! You keep cowering to the people who dont pay anything in. How about you listen to those who are ready to stop paying for once?
