Xbox One X - NA - Cyrodiil - Vivec Campaign

I have been experiencing the same issues, and then some... @ZOS_GinaBruno

Abilities will randomly 'grey out' during combat, not allowing me to use any abilities including L/H attacks, Dodge Roll or Potions. Occasionally skills will animate/register from Mana/Stamina pool but not register on the target (Sometimes have to click the skill button 3-4 times).

Bar Swapping!!! OMG it's been so long...just fix this...Have to click bar swap button 5-6 times to actually swap.

Break Free/Dodge Roll while snared/CC'd/Immobilized/etc. Cannot use break free, no matter how many times I try AT FULL STAMINA pool...Abilities bar just 'greys out' can't defend, break free, dodgeroll, use potions, etc.

Invisible enemies - Players are exploiting their character not fully rendering, causing them to appear invisible to enemies. Have seen ONE person wipe 30+ inside keeps because you cannot target/stun/damage due to being completely invisible.

PVP Combat and Mechanics need to be evaluated and tested. Why does ZOS NOT TEST ANYTHING IN THEIR OWN GAME?!

Yeah you know the grey animation you get when someone uses negate magic on you? Well thats been showing up with no negates even present, and very frequently too.

Everything youve said Ive experienced at some point in time.

Well known YouTuber commenting on these issues I'm talking about which occured in a SIMPLE 1V1 in cyrodill with him and someone else. No zergs around, no lag, just weird delays and bugs that affect weapon swapping, skills registering, resource recovery etc.

Yeah, still freezing constantly on Xbox. Not to be salty, but each "fix" has actually made it worse

degarmo_ESO · July 2018

Been getting these issues for awhile, but significantly worse since the optimization for all cores thing they did. I'm not saying that's the culprit, just a timeline.

I've been exclusively PvEing lately because that's what my guild is currently into, and it's happening there a lot, A LOT.

Okay well done to ZoS for finally fixing the console crashes...I can actually say I haven't crashed once since maintenance a few days ago.

BUT now the game's been plagued by an even more annoying issue happening more frequently since maintenance...skills and potions literally just freezing. Animations going off yet the actual skill not registering.

This video summarises it up perfectly.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gU-at2qmzpM

Now some of you are referring to this as the 'spring bug,' however, I didn't even press sprint during this whole phase of combat. My skills just decided to freeze, and randomly unfreeze again. Then you'll notice at 0.22 seconds of the video I CLEARLY use rally, the animation going off...But the skill did not even register!!!!!!!! How is that even possible??

Then I asked my alliance in zone chat if they're experiencing similar problems with skills, and I got so many responses saying the same thing.

What the hell is going on with the game right now? If it's not one problem, it's another game-breaking bug that just ruins gameplay experience. I would've posted this in the bugs section stickied a few days ago but ZoS either took that thread down or placed it in some inconspicuous area of the forums thinking all the issues and complains would just pass over.

Anyways, let me know if any of you console/pc players are having this issue as well. Lets hope this can be addressed asap as well.

yea welcome to pcs issues now it shouldnt take long for them to fix them though. their not that bad of a problem just happen every once in a blue moon

Once in a blue moon? I get this about five times an hour in cyrodill and that's not me exaggerating

happens to me once or twice a week maybe

It locks you into sprint, if you run and let your stamina completely run out it will come back to normal. I know its not ideal but thought id post the answer to this problem.

lol this is far from an answer to the problem. Having to let my resources drain while I'm in combat is basically admitting that the game is broken and you're more likely to be killed by ZoS's bugs than actual players.

Someone from the youtube video commented on the issue and broke down the problems quite well:

"Honestly, it has to be something with the "fix" they implemented for the freezing. And i'v had more issues right where your standing (between roe and allessia, and the bridge) than anywhere in cyrodil. You'll hit the ability, it takes the resources, goes through the animation, but nothing happens. Just like you mentioned it not being lagg. It happens late at night too. But worse in primetime and overcrowded places (the usual). I think that the "freezing" issue wasn't completely fixed, but instead of your whole client freezing your characters have short microstutters either pausing or delaying the use of skills. I dont have any of these issues outside of cyrodil. Not in duels, not in bgs, not even in the sewers. It's just unfortunate that when they implement these "fixes" that they break 3 other things in the process. The cycle never ends. And us solo players are the ones who feel the blunt of it"

Thats sprint bug silly! Youre character is stuck sprinting so you cant use any abilities or pots. I had a great 1vx encounter with a bunch of lower levels and couple high cp but 1 min in the fight that happened to me as soon as i was about to burst and i got killed D;
