The infamous cyrodiil loading screens

AtomXantam · June 2018

All,

I am 100% certain this has been probably brought up in discussion a million times but it's getting worse.

Today, yesterday, the last month I've been playing, I've been getting hit by unnecessary loading screens in and around cyrodiil.
A year ago or so, it was only when a keep was repaired and it needed to reload but now it's everywhere for no reason.

Today, in the last 30 minutes alone in Kyne - the DC were pushing us (Pact) to get our scroll, they took Kingscrest. We were pushing bag to tag kings, loading screen as I'm stood outside their wall. I had to restart my game as it lasted for approx 3-4 minutes before I gave up on life. When I logged back in, I was dead; shocking.
I had it just before that walking through the woods from the to the scroll, to kingscrest keep. No buildings around, no need for the loading screen. The screen was on for approx 12 minutes before I force-quit and restarted, woke up dead; shocker.

For the last few days, or even since the new expansion summerset was released, the loading screens have been immensely worse, getting them in wilderness areas and often lasting anywhere between 10 seconds and - I dare say I had one last 30 minutes, NOT EXAGGERATING.

I pay a lot of money into this game, I have the upgraded edition, have the higher pack for summerset, all the DLC's and pay for premium as well as crowns on a regular basis. I am a very good customer.

Fix the loading screens, because right now, it's crushing any desire I have to play. I only play for Cyrodiil, I don't like questing and I delete chars when they hit level 50 so I can keep restarting cyrodiil kyne. The loading screens have been an age-old issue for ESO - one that will probably never get fixed despite the numerous, NUMEROUS complaints.

Do something about it.

Sincerely,
Very angry gamer.

I get random 2-3 second loading screens all across Cyrodiil. Even when I'm not near a keep or a fight. Really weird, but very annoying.

It really does need addressing by ZOS - This thread needs acknowledgement from the team @ZOS_MikaS @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom @ZOS_BillE @ZOS_GaryA

all loads screens have been replaced by sloadscreens and by far are much worse

This is why I avoid Cyrodiil as much as possible after a major patch for the first two weeks . Always seems to take almost a month to fix enough bugs and issues to even enjoy PvP a little bit after .

You should not have to. Cyrodiil is arguably one of the best, if not THE best feature of the game. Zenimax are suffocating it, killing it.

I only posted on the 11th, it'd be good to get a response to this age-old issue.

A lot of people have mentioned the load screen increase in my guilds and in zone chats for both PvE and PvP, myself included. I have a really good internet connection and a powerful PC. All other things function normally, just ESO is behaving sluggish, especially in crowded areas.

There was always a bit of lag during prime playing hours especially in PvP Cyrodil and busy towns outside of Cyrodil. Now it happens just about everywhere, and more often than before. The load screens are getting longer and turning into DC's. This happens a lot when running on foot and via mount to a nearby area, while teleporting, while in group combat and while interacting with items like unlocking treasure chests and using crafting stations.

This game has really fun PvP, dungeons and trials, daily repeatables, dramatic as well as funny stories, and lovely graphics. It would be a shame if people left because the game is performing poorly.

Is the issue being explored? Are the areas overcrowded? Are the PvP campaigns overcrowded? Do we maybe need a 2nd set of campaigns, especially with the event right around the corner and more instances in pve areas. Have we maybe received a larger influx of new players than expected and need larger scale servers to hold us all? I think. We're all curious to know what's going on with this issue.

You will encounter what ever Zos sees fit, pay your subscription and take it.

That's how I feel complaining about stuff on the forums now. I read the forums like bankers read the wall street journal, it's very entertaining.

I feel like they need to realise that this game would not exist without us, the customers, paying for it. I pay a lot for this game ,all expansions/DLC's, memberships and a lot of crowns to subsidise my house and my life-style in game. Sad, I know .

I'm not even saying I should get special treatment, I am just saying they need to stop ignoring this god damn thread and have common courtesy to respond to the customers who have a legitimate complaint. So far, ZOS have proven to be nothing but ignorant money-grabbing [swearword].

For a business which, as the name describes, relies on customers being satisfied, they're doing a ***-poor job by ignoring we, the customers.

This thread has been up a long time and one of the ZOS team had the bloody audacity to forum-warn me for this thread, which means they have read it, but cannot be arsed to reply to it.

Absolutely disgusting, pathetic.
