So, with these load times, if I buy a crown potion, food, etc., then I get an endless load screen in-game. Does the timer stop? If not, then it seems that I not getting what I paid for...

    You're going to get a bunch of people coming in here copy and pasting the TOS telling you that ZoS doesn't have to guarantee that anything works.

    Those people are also suckers.

    I was always wondering, why do you people buy crown potions and food, when you can craft them yourself so easily without RL money :).

    No. I know this because my xp pot timers don't stop when I have to wait 90 seconds to load into skyreach.

    If you're loading screen is longer than 10 seconds, by now you should know to reload the game, at which point the timer stops on said food, scrolls etc.

    The question was not action on the gamers part, but the programming. Answered. Dead thread.

    Thats actually a very true statement, if you paid money for crown items with a timer, you legally should get whatever good(s) you paid for. FTC is everywhere. ESO could argue though that once you buy the item(s) the transaction is over. I dont think anyone could do anything though unless you filed a class action lawsuit, but i dont think many would do it or want to wait the years it takes to go through all to only earn back 1 dollar and change(give or take) for everyone effected. But yes it could be a legal issue if one decided to make it. Read up on it if you would like.

    If I re-loaded my game at every loadscreen longer than 10 seconds then I would be re-loading my game at every loadscreen.

    I don't have issues the game that I play has issues. And yes I'm well aware of them. It's impossible not to be. Welcome to the game on Xbox.
