Idk if Monday’s patch broke some *** but the lag has been *** up. Latency spikes from 100 to as high as 500. Not all the time but regularly. Multiple people confirming in zone over the last few days. Skills are lagging out big time, or just fail to function at all. Bigger battles are almost unplayable. 2 bar pops in Shor is acting like normal pop lock in vivec. When the *** is ZOS going to make some changes, it’s serious bull ***. Patches and updates come and go and the amount of focus on the Alliance war is *** pathetic. Pages of *** on PvE and some small *** blurb on battle grounds or maybe some small thing in cyrodiil is all we get.
To amend my previous statement Im just going to go ahead and list a few of the problems I had just now in a single battle grounds match. To put this in perspective 1) No addons enabled 2) Off hours 3) No CP battlegrounds 4) 200mbps download / 50 up 5) Ping 120 6) 2017 MacBook Pro AMD Radeon Pro 560 i7 Quad core 2.8Ghz not the greatest gaming setup but perfectly adequate with the right graphics settings. And this is just a small list from battlegrounds, many of these things have been happening in Cyro since Mondays patch as well. But this is just ONE SINGLE BGs MATCH.
1. Ability and bar swap lag.
2. Enemy abilities coming in way late i.e. jabs out of thin air long after enemy players were killed and ported back to their start area.
3. What sounds like getting hit with a shrouded dagger after every re-spawn.
4. An enemy templar slid around on the ground for the rest of the match after being "killed." Except that they were very much able to use all their abilities and go around killing people yet were not able to be targeted. No exaggeration here.
5. Health desyncs and in conjunction, still being able to run around for around 5 seconds after your technically dead. Getting hit with multiple abilities almost guarantees a desync and lag.
This is not norma for me, It was actually really good prior to Mondays patch.
These were confirmed by team mates, I was not the only one seeing them. Im playing from the East Coast on PC NA there should not be this much weird *** going on ever never mind at what should be a very low pop time. Not to mention Im getting weird ping spikes regularly. And again, this is from ONE MATCH, not spread out over a session. I mean this is legit broken. These issues are not the result of bad ping or internet connection, these are just bugs. As Ive mentioned before I play from both the US (currently) and SE Asia due to work, and this is not normal even from halfway around the world.
Seriously
@ZOS_GinaBruno is there anything else that can be done? I wish I could handle video capture simultaneously as playing.
