Xbox NA . It’s actually worse . It’s so frustrating to not be able to play . We understand sometimes things happen , but when things happen and it takes over a month to fix that’s not acceptable . I can’t think of any other company that takes over a month to fix an issue with their service .

ZOS:

I think that is the major issue. We understand it is broke.

If you have fixes in mind, none of us understand "why" we have to wait for 3 weeks?

If you are still working on a solution and need more time (and are assuming 3 weeks is the time needed) then tell us that?

Console certification isn't a secret but perhaps the cost is, is this a factor for waiting?

*Maybe instead of an ESO Live, how about we have Matt and whoever sit down for 20-30 minutes and explain things.

Lastly and I ask again, What are you going to do going forward to minimize these issues on future DLC's?

I played with a full group last night in Cyrodiil (Vivec) for about 4 hours. I only froze once myself, which seems like an improvement. However, at least three times while we were at Chalman, a large group from another alliance froze right in front of us... so not quite there yet.

For what it's worth, I've not played in Cyrodiil since this update, but did run around IC for a couple of hours last night. During this time, I was in PVP battles of groups of roughly 4-6v8-12 and did not experience any freezes or similar problems. I did experience excessively long load screens (even by ESO standards) moving in between districts, though, on a fairly regular basis (maybe 50% of the time). This did not seem to ever occur when respawning or entering the sewers themselves though.

Unfortunately, I'd not been to IC in a while prior to the update, so am not sure if it's related to the fix, but thought I'd share.

Nearly 20 hours spent in cyro since the update, mostly staying away from keeps as a smallscaler/solo player - the crashing has not lessened by much, if at all. Earlier in the day it isn't nearly as bad, as there are far fewer players online and they're more spread out. But once you begin to approach primetime (after 4pm EST on XBNA), the crashing picks right back up. From 7PM-12AM, it's about as bad as it ever has been.

It is definitely a render issue. The large scale crashes always happen when large groups of players approach keeps or other large groups of players. As a solo/small scale player, I've frequently had opportunity to kill 10-20 people who are just frozen, as I would approach the location of the large groups after they've encountered each other and had a mass crash.

I highly reccomend zenimax work on creating a settings option to disable ambient effects (rain, snow, "god rays" (ambient sky lighting), shadows, grass, etc. Allowing these features to be disabled would create far fewer things to render, and on an individual basis could likely resolve crashing in many different scenarios.

Ca say that didn't work hope the next idea is better

If only you had to access the crown store via cyrodiil......

It was better for me. Long stuttering but no crashes. An improvement definitely.

No , it’s still utter *** , crashed 2 times in 5 mins , crash , reload , in the game for 5 secs then crash again.
It’s kinda amazing Sony haven’t pulled this game from the store.

@ZOS_GinaBruno I’d just like to point that I had opened a ticket about these issues, and I’ve been told it was either my PS4, my ISP, or my settings.

I’m happy that you finally acknowledge that there IS issues going on, especially since Summerset release. But at the same time I feel a bit insulted that my ticket was closed because your team thought “the problem was on my side”. Even though I had about 5 different error messages in less than 1 hour of playtime.. if not more.. freezes, app crash, server errors, etc.

I’ve been been a long time player. I’ve encountered crashes here and there but never as much as I do now. It would of been very weird that suddently my ISP port settings changed, my PS4 messed up, and that I mess up my own settings all on the same day.. on top of that, at the very exact moment your newest patch dropped.

It’s frustrating enough that the game you enjoy won’t work properly, but being told it’s not ZoS fault and to go either contact my ISP/Sony for something they wouldn’t even know what to say when it’s clearly not their fault is MUCH more frustrating and insulting.

Anyways.. I haven’t really noticed a change since you have disabled this feature, FYI. I still crashed. Maybe slightly less, but I couldn’t tell as the crashes are super random. It can be fine for a few hours then I experience crashes back to back for a little while. Most of the people I know experience these issues on a very random basis. I’m talking about getting booted out of the game as soon as you log in especially. I happen to have a lot of (random) crashes when I switch toons as well. When this happens, I just have to keep trying until the game let me in.

Also worth mentionning I don’t PvP much. The issues I’m experiencing are all in PvE areas. Towns, trials, dungeons, etc.

I'm freezing more than before.

PS4 NA, Vivec: game totally froze 5 times in less than 15 minutes of gameplay. Gave up after that.

The 4th time, the game froze before I even fully loaded in. Most of the UI wasn't even on the screen yet!




I miss the how the game used to turn into a slideshow during large battles. At least it was playable. This is pathetic.


Also, it seems like some enemy players aren't loading correctly. Today I've been killed by enemies who were flickering in and out of visibility (mostly invisible). I'd hear a skill be used, get hit with damage, and look around and not see anyone, multiple times. I'd see the same thing happen to allied players, too. No, it's not a nightblade cloaking or invisibility pots.

Today I've seen many players go instantly from 100% health to dead. Never seen anything like this before.

It looked like one player may have been abusing it. Standing in the middle of the breach, and killing anyone who walked up to him or tried to res those he killed. Couldn't get the name because I only saw him for a fraction of second.
