    Maybe if EU PC folk would stop using that cheat engine, your server wouldn’t be dying :D

    Update: We identified the issue, and are working on getting it fixed. No downtime is expected, but it may take some time to resolve (think hours, not days).

    What exactly do you think will change? The service zos has offered europe the last year has been beyond any considerable excuse. And to make it worse, the service they provide in US is of such higher standard it feels like they are two different companies (which is probably the correct assumption). I started playing NA sometime in december, and running a 200 ping primetime vivec NA is a blessing compared to any time in EU. No lag, or not noticeable, even when I get the 500+ ping symbol I can play as normal, skills go off when they should, movement is smooth and there is no waiting screens while porting.
    We have the same codes in NA and EU (i assume we do), more or less the same playerbase, but still the EU servers performance has been up to and until today, with peaks the wrong way, absolutely garbage. The brand is under a huge strain in EU, players are losing confidence in the ability to handle a thing which in US seems like an easy daily routine.
    How can we expect the servers to improve when clearly the problem lies within the actual hardware. Theres nothing to change or sort out in the software department, as long as the codes are equal in EU and NA. Its only a question of WHY zenimax chose to offer their EU partners such cheap hardware compared to what they offer their american audience.

    Clearly it is hardware.

    Based on what evidence?

    I can only assume the software presented on the US servers and the EU servers is the same. Meaning same coding and same game, basically (though I COULD be wrong).
    IF that assumption is correct, my SUBJECTIVE observation playing BOTH NA and EU during prime time, is the US servers work, while the EU servers doesnt. Right now, although not yet primetime US, there is absolutely zero lag, zero loading screens and not any visible issues FOR ME. At the same time I had to force quit from the EU servers due to extremely bad performance. Then agains, all since I started playing both EU and US, I notice the difference in performance. Its very noticeable. Hence, the only explanation I can offer from my journeyman point of view, is that there must be a difference in hardware. Where that difference is, I can not tell. What I can offer, is some amateurish insights; It could be the IT provider. But not mine, since I dont have problems playing on the NA servers. It could be the servers itself, which is what I have a lurking idea could be the root of the evil, or it could be human errors executing software operations, but here I am very uncertain, as this is something which should have been sorted a long time ago, then.
    To conclude, since the issue has been ongoing to a certain degree more or less for several months, I think the most logical conclution would be directed at the hardware, but please offer any other theories

    Yeah it's pretty bad. I do frequent NA from time to time. While my ping obviously shows higher there, the latency doesn't feel as bad, and it's a lot more consistent. I don't get crazy spikes, rubberbanding, or freezes and then dropped back to the login screen.

    Thats actually interesting. I have the same experience as you, and I would like to add, that the 200+ ping I am being offered on the NA servers feels like perfect conditions gameplay on the EU servers. Even when I hit 500+ the gameplay feels just about right. I have seemingly very good ping on the EU servers (relatively), but something else is hindering what I am offered.

    What excatly could they change in a few hours to fix the peaktime lag of PvP? It has been unplayable for the last 5 years not just the last few days or over the weekend.

    as he have said, which should be 100% true "We have the same codes in NA and EU", so if the problem is not in the code, it is either with the player base, or the hardware. and if the problem is a too big player base, then they need a new, third server anyway.

    i am not surprised at all.
    First the constant sorc nerf wave (a ton of fine sorc players are confrimed they left pvp cos of the nonsense shield nerfs)
    Then the performances issues, with the constant laggs and frame drops
    No performance upgrades,
    Too much bugs and exploiters
    too much cheaters.
    And the result is leaving players and they have every right to do so.
    And teh list goes on when it comes to the problems what pvp have.

    Is that really true US servers works better than EU? Excluding PR ofc, obviously latency will be higher for EU players there.

    yes its true when i was in L.A due to work i went to US and i had no fram and latency issues at all.
    When i am in EU it is always crap basicly.
    And my country is not even that far away from the eu server park.
