So many of my friends would still play this game if the lag was fixed. Some come back and check it out, but realize it still has the same issues that they left over.

So this thread has been running for four days now and it's still on the front page of General ESO discussion... but you still haven't received any feedback from ZOS.

Wow.

It's mind boggling how the issue can be absolutely ignored by the manufacturer/developer while their consumer is literally screaming until they're blue in the face that your product is acting up.

Would un-subbing really be eye opening to them? I doubt it. I was just in discord the other night and heard a conversation between two people talking about buying up crates to get a specific mount that they wanted, and will continue to do so if that mount (or one like it) is available again through crates. So ZoS is likely making the bulk of their income through the crowns/crates, not subs.

Twice this week- I've had my own threads removed by ZOS. One was encouraging people to write reviews on MMORPG.COM about the poor performance issues, bugs, lags, long load screens, etc...

ZOS will keep ignoring these threads (because they're "in-house" on the forums). If you want to see improvements- let other potential players start to see the issues that plague ESO. If people don't bother buying the game- ZOS will start listening to it's current player base.

So I just popped my head in to see how the state of PVP is going. Seems like its in the same place it was when I un-subed and quit back in June. /sigh

I have good news and bad news.

I will start with the bad...

The bad news is you need to give this game up. Its broken, the company doesn't care about you, and its not going to get fixed. .. EVER. You have heard plenty say this. This hurts me to say and is hard to admit.

If you've been following whats happening with the AAA gaming companies its not looking good for the future of gaming either.

The last bit of bad new is you need to be patient, because the good news is still in development.

Here's the good news, albeit, you will have to wait. There are some very promising games on the horizon. I will speak on the one that is the most similar to ESO pvp. Camelot Unchained! There isn't a lot on this game at the moment because it is still in a NDA testing phase. However, you can find little bits here and there on the web. City State Games, the developers, have a twitch channel. Check it out. (all one word CityStateGames) Also check out the Camelot Unchained website. Lots of information there. As I said, not much can be said yet because we are under a NDA. (we being the testers and backers. Yes, its a crowd funded game. And no, this doesn't mean it will fail, its actually looking really good and moving along really well. I say this as a regular tester.)

I say all this because like you I feel your pain, but want to give you hope. I decided to invest in CU after being told about it by word of mouth. I don't invest lightly either. But don't take my word for it. Do the research yourself and check it out. I bet much of the ESO pvp community will like what they see.

Again, this is to give hope to you guys because I think there is something really great on the horizon. This isn't hype, but hope. The hype will come...

But seriously, stop giving these greedy companies (like ZoS) your money for a broken product. You only fuel the fire and prove to the executives that their immoral business ethics work. I would love this game to be fixed, but the reality is that it won't.

Hope this can help some of you who happen to read it. Doubt ZoS will ever see this. Shame on them.

Battlegrounds are also not a great experience.
You have to press 1000 times F before you can start a BGs.
There is also a little bit of lag that you can only notice when you suddenly got a burst of damage where you don't see any visual effect coming.
Leavers.
Premades vs separate people.
And NB that can break your legs and smash your skull on the floor before you can even react to press one key and if your lucky and survive they can perma cloak and evade 80% of all skills.

Last night in Vivec, PC NA, every time I used Blockade of Storms (from the destro skill line the sound from the skill echoed twice.

To be more specific I heard the sound from the skill 3 times.

1. when I used the skill
2. the sound occurred 2 seconds later
3. ^ one more time, 2 seconds later

Anyway, the lag was so bad last night. The ping was all over the place. I logged off from vivec around 9:45 est.

Truth. Vote with your wallet.

I already did. I don't sub anymore, after 3 years, because I can't pvp. I log in lagout and get frustrated then just go do something else

Why? I'm certainly not good by any means but I have fun in Cyro. I only play in Sotha, however, so this might be why. If you came to Sotha, and are EP, I can hook you up with some groups to make it more enjoyable.

There are always moments where zergs from another faction just ruin it, and I simply log off for a while or go PvE and do my dailies.

P.S. Just to mention Cyro is VERY dynamic. It changes from moment to moment. It takes a while to get a feel for it.

delete plz.

All problems trickle down from the top and I am pretty sure the devs have been instructed not to engage on here any longer, just based on behavior patterns over time. They need to oust the CEO and get someone in there who actually understands gaming and relates to the clientele base, rather than just some rich dude who bought his way into the company via stock options. We don't need a bunch of uptight suits who have no idea how to even hold a controller. I want to see a team of sweaty neckbeards and neckbeards-ets who smell like Funyuns and wear the same holey anime tshirt for 3 weeks straight in that board room, calling the shots. As it is, the current guy is just turning this game into a fancy version of candy crush, where people addicted to wasting money shell out their rent money for stupid *** that means nothing, believing it'll help them "win" at something.
