Serious issue with lag.

hoaxburnrwb17_ESO · June 2017

I just spent a lot of money to increase my internet speed to improve cyrodill performance... I still lag out of the server, and its funny how it happens. everyone freezes and I cant weapons swap.

My internet shot over 1,000 megabytes a second and I was running at less than 20fps. Now I have to spend at least 600 - 700 dollars to buy a GTX 980 to get my frame rates up.

System requirements don't say u need 10mbits internet speed, GTX 980 to play. SOOOOOO the problem is your stupid megaserver.

With all the money you have made from morrowind alone, why not open up 5 servers for people to choose? (like a normal MMORPG) it wont hurt, and I could save a lot of money from having to buy a new card, but I know it wont happen so I'm jus venting my frustration at this stupid idea called megaserver.

U guys wont even open a second cp server for pvp.. shame. just shame. whoever is in charge over there at eso should hang their head down in shame for this.

You want them at a minimum to open up 6 new servers merely for PvP? There are 3 servers groups on each of the two continents to accommodate the three platforms in each area. Just FYI.

So that basically puts into perspective why it is not as small as you seem to think. Further, many of us are not having the issues you are, I have not had any today. That does not mean it is not on Zos' end, but there is much more involved that just there server and the bandwidth you have at your front door.

You want two servers for CP in pvp? Come and play on the master race and join Xbox na where we have 2 CP campaigns

well u must be new to mmorpg. a normal mmorpg has more than 1 server.

Try adjusting your in game settings first. Too many particles will cause your FPS to drop. Additionally, the more information on screen from said particles, the more data being sent from your client machine to the server and then back.

Also, how the hell does a GTX980 cost 600-700 in 2017? You don't need a card with 6GB of VRAM to run ESO. I get by at a constant 60FPS on a GTX1050.

well, gee obviously with a monster card like that I wouldn't have problems with lag. I was looking at gtx 980 prices. that's what I saw. Not everyone is rich u know.

AzraelKrieg · June 2017

I have been to Cyrodiil many times. I have no issues whatsoever regardless of the graphics card I use. Also, my internet is about as potato as it can get and I live about as far away from either server as possible. I do not have massive lag or FPS issues when I'm in Cyrodiil.

LOL. I started playing online probably before you were born.

Yea, Zos has 6, as I pointed out. Further, each of what we are referring to as a server is actually a great many servers. Even one instance of Cyrodiil sometimes requires more than one server, which is why one can be at Roe defending from a heavy attack and have some pretty good lag and another can be at BRK and have no issues.

Really cuz before I was born there was no internet.

You clearly don't know how the megaservers operate here. It is not a single server for each location and platform. Server technology has gotten better and different since I first started playing MMOs back in 2000

Speed has no matter, if it's more than 10 mbitsec.
But ping and packet loss have matter here.

I would prefer 1 mbitsec connection with 10ms ping, than 100 mbitsec with 200ms ping.

I wish, 10 ms ping? u got to be near that megaserver for that. I'm looking at 10mbits, 200ms ping. maybe a $700 card will fix that, cuz high speed internet sure as hell doesn't..

However, it's incredibly likely it's at ZOS's end.

ZOS's hardware does not seem to like Comcast, and seems to have extremely high packet loss where Comcast is concerned. I've tested this myself and talked to others about the same, it's a trend, so lets not pretend ZOS does -not- have some connection issues.
