Cyrodiil is just too broken to play

Within the last 3 days, Cyrodiil NA Xbox, any campaign, has been absolutely impossible to play any longer than 3 to 15 minutes at a time. And while we all know the problems with lag, glitches, bugs, etc., has been really rough for some time now, it's gotten increasingly worse over the last three days. I've dc'd 9 times in the last hour, screen freezes at unpredictable rates, skills do not deploy most of the time, and when they do there are several seconds of latency in-between then everything goes off at once. These are just a few of the problems. I know I'm not the only one who experiences this now or in the past. And please do not patronize or reply with snarky comments. I just want to hear from someone within the company, devs or otherwise, explain to me why pvp is broken and what they are doing about it now, and not in future updates. Please.

    More players are coming back to Cyrodiil because they like faction locks.

    Does that make a difference? Interest in Elsweyr has people returning to the game now, not just waiting until official launch.

    More people are coming back. At 8 CST last night I looked at the 30 day CP camp. 3 bar AD, Pop locked EP, 3 bar DC.

    Pop caps are 150 per faction and the queues are meh for “so many people coming back because faction lock. “

    You do realize that calling someone a troll is, by definition, trolling, do you not?

    But it’s not?

    I feel like your argument has broken down when the response to being called a troll is essentially: No U

    And before this gets into a feedback loop that ends in the thread being locked, maybe we all step back on this now?

    If the lock opponents can't refrain from expressing their frustration by name-calling, then locks are the just destination.

    It's pretty bad, and doesn't seem to have anything to do with returning players because you can and do get the frozen load screen of doom for seemingly no reason at all. Vivec or Shor, prime time or not, it doesn't matter. If you transit, you'll probably get one.
    Keep flips seem to always come with a load screen lately too, and sometimes you'll get the frozen screen during those.
    Then of course, there's the lovely constantly stuck-in-combat problem.

    I wonder when we're ever going to hear anything about stuck-in-combat again? I doesn't do any good to ask directly since it'll be ignored unless you trigger the manners police.

    I play Vivec early morning and late at night PST. It is somewhat tolerable during those periods. Primetime is a mess. Our group then goes to Shore where there are no fights to be had because lack of pop. Frustrating indeed.

    Xbox One X mate. Just bought one made me realize ESO and the Xbox One (s and original) are not compatibel. What a difference I had not 1 crash and the lag fest is as good as gone.

    I was going to ask this - I wonder if ESO is simply pushing the hardware of older consoles to the limit.

    Can't comment on that. This is my experience. Now 1 week on my Xbox One X thats like 30 hours played. Not 1 crash no lag fest FPS is up so much, details are crazy on 4K before the game was fun but ugly.

    When I also see comment of people on heavy PC's with still so many problems I am happy for my decision to go to the One X (was thinking to get a expensive PC and start all over again).

    Yet these guys think performance is good enough to introduce position dependent skills like Surprise Attack....LOL!

    After several years of nothing but talk I've pretty much given up these guys ever fixing the performance issues.

    I concur that the X is worth it. But i still play on my old Xbox too and graphics aside (and slower loading screens) i don't notice a huge difference in DCs etc some people seem to be plagued with.

    I clear Xbox cache (save game) regularly and have a decent network i think its that.

    I think PC is plague with Guilds in the "WOW mentality" hey there is a Battle group option in PVP lets run 48 all spamming healing springs and AOE damage. They do this and lag the servers to a point its unplayable. Its not their fault its ZOS fault for creating this false premise when their game cannot handle ball groups.

    PC EU is a joke, and a very bad one at that.
