    If you’re having performance issues, try playing in a different campaign. The two new ones have a lower pop and probably less issues.

    Yeah, no. My PVP guild is based in Vivec, and AD is five days away from winning the campaign. I’m not going to move over to a new campaign until the current campaign is over. I really wish that campaigns could be locked in some way during the event (e.g., if you have not logged into Vivec at all during the current campaign, you can’t log into Vivec until the campaign is over). Why should I have my usual PVP experience ruined because people who have never PVPed before decided to hop onto the most populated campaign to buy “PVP carries”?

    Yes, there are actually people in /zone looking for “PVP carries.”

    Hate to *** on your parade, but they have as much right being there as you do. Maybe pay their sub fees, internet provider bills etc and maybe then people will entertain your inane notion that you're somehow more deserving than the next person.

    Sorry, but this is a 30 day campaign we’re talking about. You don’t see how it could be incredibly frustrating to those of us who PVP in Vivec regularly if the outcome of the campaign is swayed in the last five days by people who don’t care AT ALL about PVP, who are just there for the cosmetic reward and title? When regular PVPers are shut out of Cyrodiil at the end of a major campaign for HOURS at a time, waiting for someone who doesn’t even know where to buy siege equipment to lose interest after they die a few times in their meta PVE build, then there’s a problem.

    Current campaigns should have ended before the event started. Alternatively, people who don’t PVP regularly and are only going to Cyrodiil for the event should be queuing into the new campaigns set up specifically for this event. Why screw up the last few days of a PVP campaign you’re not even invested in, just so you can get your cosmetic reward and never return again? We only get ONE major PVP event per year, and it stinks that we can’t even enjoy it.

    Had a weird issue where the loading screen was just black, but minus the occasional 1 second loading screen there's been nothing.

    Edit: just got stuck in two infinite loading screens a minute apart.

    A few in the guild certainly suffered badly with lag & disconnections. Oddly, I did not. Which is strange, since I am playing from Oceania. This was on Sotha Sil.

    I know I'm very lucky, but I have had very few problems with the event so far. I'm on PC/NA and was in Vivec for about 10 hours today and Sotha Sil for about 2 hours. I have (so far), no complaints. :)

    Played for several hours in one of the new campaigns and in Shor on the NA server. Late prime time to about 1 am EST. No issues, no lag, no wait to get in, but it wasn’t particularly crowded. Tried Vivec in prime time, but there was a long queue, which was why I switched to the new campaign.

    I'm staying out of Cyrodiil for this event this year too. It's not that I don't have the time to farm ap on my way to Grand Overlord (vacation, woohoooo. B) Be jealous, muahahahahhaha :p ) My country is on the third month of an unprecedented heatwave with forestsfires and stuff so it's way too hot to spend hours upon hours gaming everyday.

    (PS4 EU). We had to abandon Shor. Huge delays in skills activating or just not going off at all etc. I can't even imagine what Vivec is like. The new campaigns they opened are fine so far though, still plenty of ppl to fight and no lag (yet)

    Queue 489 yesterday Sotha EU @ 10 in the evening, 1 hour 45 Minutes later i spawned in Cyro, moved 3 steps towards the Transitus- Shrine and had my first loading screen for about 6 mins....
    This loading screen issues didn´t stop for the whole Run from me, and i logged out@ 2:20am

    Despite off that Loading Issues, not soooo much lag (1 Keepfight with delayed actions) no disconnects or freezes.

    I'm having a great time on BGs. Tried Vivec NA and it is unplayable, but that is most likely due my potato pc and third world connection. Once I switched to a less crazy campaign it ran like a silk. Still not sure wether to stick to Shor or Sotha Sil. Probaly the latter.

    I was surprised myself tbf. I logged in after work on PC EU at like 6.30 and had a queue of 178. I did a few COH runs but I think I entered Vivec within like 30-40 minutes. The queue dropped fast.
    Cyrodiil itself was a lot better to play than the weeks before the event. I played for like 5 hours... The ping was obivously a bit higher in full pop vs. full pop situations but all in all no lag, skills and bar swap everything was running smoothly for me.

    Queued for PC/EU Vivec last evening, got pos #255. Went to one of the newly opened event-campaigns while I waited for Vivec (no queuing time there). Performance was very much ok, no lag issues, never a disconnect, just two mini-loading screens.

    Same for Vivec after 90 min of waiting: lag was not worse then usual in the main campaign, never a disconnect, never a loading screen. Actually I expected much worse.

    One thing to mention: Saw many PVP noobs dying like flies because they followed the "advice" to equip sloads for great AP and never heard of the importance of survivability. Definitely a super-frustrating experience for them.

    PS4 NA - Despite all the horror stories ive been hearing about Cyrodiil the past few weeks, I had a great first day in there! Played about 5 hours total, And only 1 blue screen. Finally saw a glitched keep wall with my own eyes, But other than that it was fine! When I blue screened I was able to get right back in with no issues and no queue. The initial wait time was about 45 mins to get into Vivec.

    Somewhere in-between. I'm getting huge lag spikes occasionally, and they're aggravating, but no where near "unplayable".

    I crashed twice last night. While that's twice more than usual lately, it's far from "every 10 minutes" and doesn't even touch how bad I've experienced in the past.

    I've not had any frame rate drops in PvP lately.

    I am a little annoyed by the huge queue, but I guested over to one of the new campaigns while I was queued and found some familiar names and ok-ish fights.

    The biggest problem I'm having is delayed damage in BG, where I'm taking all of the damage from an encounter at once instead of when it's dealt. I even died to incoming damage after I killed the guy and was leaving the platform, my combat log showed almost 300k from dead guy hit me within a few milliseconds. To him it must have seemed suspicious that he was unloading everything be had on me and my health stayed at 100%, until I turned around and dropped dead after the fight ended. The damage delay happened several times last night, but that was the most extreme example.

    Queue wasn't too bad took maybe 10 ish minutes, loading screens were actually relatively normal length, laggy around large fights but that's normal for anywhere in this game, skills haven't been activating/working properly which is a bit of a pain, and it only crashed once in the span of 3 hours. Overall a pretty good experience for my first time in pvp. Had completely avoided it due to everyone here complaining about how bad it is, so idk if I just got lucky or what haha oh and this was on Vivec ps4 NA which really took me by surprise considering it's population XD

    ZOS must get rid of the lighting patch : https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/113161/patch-notes-v1-2-3

    There are other ways to improve the lighting.

    Also they must remove the existing bs anti cheat system . They can implement another one.

    After these things done you will see how wonderful and no laggy Cyrodiil is.

    P.S They must improve their servers too .

    We will have real large battles again ( yes , hundreds of people on the same screen). Pvp will be like it was before ...and how it was advertised before and after ESO launch.

    Had a weird and scary lag in Belkarth that I've never seen before so it's even affecting me and I am nowhere near the event stuff. I would've thought it only messed up the PvP servers, so it's making me kind of nervous that it's affecting the whole game.
