The Real Issue

The lag is insane. The game is almost unplayable in Cyrodiil at times. I can't swap bars, use abilities or even do basic stuff like CC breaking without some kind of long delay or massive frame drop. And that's without even talking about the endless game crashes and mid combat loading screens. People are discussing all the balance changes and nerfs but the biggest problem by far is the state of the game's performance.

    Performance is by far the biggest problem eso has. I dont think anyone would argue that, Its pretty clear its unacceptable. The problems with balance though are also a big issue and far easier to solve. A Lot of the unbalance in this game is a direct result of zos trying to balance the game. Their attempts to make things more balanced by categorizing skills and standardizing them based on rule set has done more harm to the game than good. The sledgehammer nerfs zos always hands out is also responsible for the games lack of balance.

    Lag might be the top priority but thats not the easiest problem to solve. It requires zos to actually do something. The combat complaints just require zos to stop doing things. Stop balancing by categories and stop sledgehammer nerfing things. Tweak individual things, a small amount at a time. Zos takes forever to fix issues that should be addressed right away but when a situation comes along where slowly addressing things over time would actually provide a benefit (Combat balancing) they rush in with massive tweaks and changes.

    Yeah, this is a problem in PvE as well. Dungeon doors being bugged, players being kicked out, vDLC HM dungeon one-shot mechanics wigging out... it’s game-wide and ridiculous.

    While I get bug fixes are coming Q4, I’d rather them hit first than all the ‘balancing.’

    Performance is why I moved onto other games. Idc about nerfs or p2w-ish mechanics. And I pve 99% of the time.

    No hate.
    But I love when people come late to the forums and point out how people who have been forever hearing 'soon' ought to be patient, because we were promised that some improvement was just around the corner.

    Their servers can't handle a full Cryodil. That's all there is to it.

    They either need to upgrade their servers or add more campaigns with lower populations.

    started a new character and just went through Wailing Prison. That is becoming almost unplayable. The lag - and I was in there during off hours with very few others - was ridiculous. Every target would take damage, freeze, die and then wait another moment for it to teleport to its final resting place.

    EVERY target.

    It wasn't an occasional situation anymore.

    Lag in cyro was on a new level for me today. Almost none of my Templar skills would work my gap closer was actually pushing me backwards farther from the target.

    I hit a few people with meteor just for the lolz and at least from my point of view they all got stunned and broke free about 20 meters in the air :lol:

    I would argue with my 4 months old completely stuck EU account, I rate my zero logs problem by far bigger than performance, it's so 0P that all the lag is completely eliminated from my game.

    or undo the anti bot net code they switched too. Prior to it pvp worked fine, able to handle hundreds of players on screen

    That might work too if they added new security layers to the server that are eating up resources and capacity.

    Though anti Bot code sounds handy. I would prefer they just upgrade their servers. From the sound of it - this game is making them plenty of profit so they should be able to afford it.

    I wouldn't hold my breath for server/performance fixes. I remember when we started getting longer load screens/stuck in load screens with the Clockwork DLC and here we are with the same load screen and loading problems almost 2 years later.
