    Thank you, ZOS, for all your lucrative promises ))
    And Broken Group Finder Simulator and this are such a revealing marketing actions.

    When we can expect the next singleplayer game, btw? ;)

    Has anyone heard about issues on US server and only US server?
    Well, I met once so can't say it's 100%.
    But.

    How can it be that most issues are EU-related?

    I dont think they will fix anything, now its 2200 and ppl go to sleep. Thats the reason why it works a lil bit better.
    The finder was broken before the event but now it kicks in again due the mass of players.

    Groupfinder:
    The worst part is when it finally puts you in a group, your healer turns into a werewolf, your tank has 14k HP and the dps is heavy armor, using a restro staff and a two handed sword on the backbar. Then comes the 15 minute penalty before the cycle starts anew.

    Rulz of Morrowind:
    • The first rule of Morrowind is: You do not talk about Morrowind.
    • The second rule of Morrowind is: You do not talk about Morrowind.
    • Third rule of Morrowind: Someone yells NDA stuff, uploads images, streams, the game is over.
    • Fourth rule: only invited players can test.
    • Fifth rule: one invite at a time, fellas.
    • Sixth rule: crying or bashing on pts.
    • Seventh rule: NDA will go on as long as they have to.
    • And the eighth and final rule: If this is your first invite at Morrowind, you have to play.

    In the last 3 hours I have found the Group finder better the grouping seems fixed with easy entering and leaving groups the actual loading into dungeons has still been spamming f a few times but no longer than 5 mins before getting in a dungeon this was for 6 groups from about 8.30 pm gmt. there was 2 other groups in my guild having a similar change anyone else seeing an improvement like this?

    Over 95% of the times i saw or heard "group finder" the prior or following word was either broken or not working

    Now its the main tool for a server wide event...*insert gordon ramsey cursing himself*

    This is also happening on the NA server as well. I'm on PS4 and I've been qued for over an hour and nothing. I also can't leave group unless I log out and log back in.

    I actually got a bug I had never seen. Our group got put together and put into a completed dungeon. Every boss was dead. It really wouldn’t have been that big a deal, but of course we also had a 15 minute cooldown timer...

    There is no such thing as an ESO event that doesn't include game breaking bugs. I could always group with the activity finder until today. Midyear Mayhem was a disaster too.

    The game is broken and those events simply put it into lights

    it does not look professional at all though

    I mean the bugs are killing it

    The great thing is that they fail 100% of the events.

    That's not something easy to achieve. You gotta work hard to get there

    It really isn’t surprising though. They keep designing events around things they know are buggy.

    I know! Maybe the next event can be based around depositing gold into the guild bank!!!

    Midyear Mayhem was only a disaster for the first couple of hours (excepting the achievement bug). Then ZOS spun up a few more campaigns and it got much easier to play. As long as I wasn't too picky about which campaign I was in, Midyear Mayhem was great after the new campaigns were put in. I definitely agree that ZOS should have foreseen that everyone was going to crowd into Cyrodiil, but they responded quickly with an appropriate fix that worked.

    But there's not an alternate groupfinder to use for this event.

    Tried from 8pm until 11pm, got 1 run out of it. The other 2+hrs I was just doing ready checks over and over again. It's super frustrating to be reasonably excited about an event, just to realize that the tool you must use to complete it, doesn't work.....ps4 na

    ZOS has an event that requires doing a daily random Dungeon and the grouping finder is broken on all megaservers. Then ZOS finds out their is a problem by players telling them. Guess they don't even play their own game. Priceless you just got to laugh.

    I am just going to mention that no number of in-house employees can emulate a full server of players. PTS cannot do that either.

    Loving ZOS for their up-frontedness, frankly.

    I tried to use dungeon finder but it just does nothing but a timer. No-one joins and I can't exit.

    I have even tried stopping the game, but when I log back in again, I'm still in the queue.

    But I'm big noob, so that could be 1/2 my problem admittedly.
    No you are not an noob

    At was horrible up to 22:00 then it worked well.
    Just did two dungeons as DD this morning, no queue as inn in less than an minute, yes queued as DD only.
    Probably as so many queue as fake healer or tank.
    I queued then wanted to go to Grathwood but did just got out of bank before invite :)


    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.
