wolf486✭✭✭✭No. Still play same amount.No, but I did recently install GW2 and PoE for ESO downtimes. Awful latency has become annoying the last few days. Hitting the 999+ a few times, to the point I'd be running and then teleported back somewhere else.PC/NAMoved onto BDO and GW2 Skyrim, ATS/ETS2, ACNH and the overall goodness of single player games

MrGraves✭✭✭✭I don't feel like any poll answer really fits how I feel about it. The server performance is good for awhile for me then bad for some months and repeat kinda. same with bugs. So it's kinda off and on but it definitely affects how much i play the game when it is bad. But it kinda depends on what kind of content you do. I generally do PvE stuff so it's usually only if it effects that or like just the servers as a whole. If it's Cyro specific though I don't really go there much so it doesn't affect my general play.0 -
cyberblast✭✭✭Yes. 75% less play time.Well, in my case I didn't play ESO for about 4 years due to a bug. The whole UI was spinnig around, only complete Windows reinstall fixed it. I did it one time but it came back after a patch. So I quit after playing the public beta, buying the physical imperial edition and playing highly enthusiastically with subscription for only half a year.
Giving it a second chance actually and am wondering how it's possible that many simple, basic and important things are not working as expected/required.
At least the bug I experienced 4 years ago seems to be fixed

✭Yes. 25% less play time.I mean, I either play or can't play.
These days, I don't play much because I spend time on other games, I can't spend every day on the same game for nearly 4 years after all...
It's rare that I don't play because of a bug or lags, but when it happens, it's not because of frustration or annoyance, but because I actually can't play.
Yesterday, wanted to do 1 single random dungeon. Spam the button for 15 minutes until it accepts to queue me in, crash while in my house talking in guild. Relog on a healer, queue again after abusing the Join Queue button. Join a dungeon, it's march of sacrifice, but it doesn't matter because I'm stuck in an endless loading screen anyway. I wasn't even mad or anything, it's mainly because of my own network. I just decided not to waste time trying to play, and went to sleep.
TL;DR: Bugs and lag are not driving me away from the game, it's something else. But sometimes the game is simply not working when I'd like to play.Edited by Elwendryll on December 5, 2018 1:01PMPC - EU - France - AD

✭Yes. 25% less play time.This SHOULD be really, really horrible reading for ZOS. I really hope they read this, and think long and hard about how to come to terms with this.
I'll drop a spoiler: It's NOT through events where key functions doesn't work properly, not through free housing, not through giving us free crown crates OR re-skinning mounts for sale.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Yes. 75% less play time.Well it's more like 90% off but it's not total quit, I'm still login for daily rewards, to put stuff on guild store, to get event tickets. But from 4-6 hours daily I went down to 10-20 minutes.I'm done with this game because of ZOS pushing us into Vengeance, because they don't know how to fix Cyrodiil.0 -
Rontabs77✭✭✭No. Still play same amount.I answered No, but I can't deny that there are bugs, and for me the biggest is getting randomly booted out from a battleground match. The frustrating part is when I log back in, I am branded as a deserter and cannot queue for a BG match for some minutes.0

POps75p✭✭✭✭Yes. 75% less play time.Sos caused the. Problem, and the can fix it with some simple changes
1. Get rid of the spy ware, number 1 reason for long load times, but it won’t happen
2. Sos was the on that increased toons to 15, put the didn’t do anything to reduce the number of times toons needed to log or religious the game. Here’s a few simple things you can do to decrease the load
A. Have hirelings deliveries once per day all items, would save a ton of reloads
B. Get rid of the stupid 20 hour crap period, this forces players to try and fit events and randoms into un reasonable schedules, make everything like writs, trying to fit horse training and the other 20 crap where their work or appointments changes every day, plus your server maint plays hell with this as well
So if you reduce the amount of toon loads you speed up the reload time for everyone
Zos, solve the problem vs making it more complex0
