X-Box Performance is a joke ZOS, your performance roadmap is years too late.

So I've been playing on XBox NA for about 4 years now and its no surprise to anyone on here that I say performance has significantly degraded in that time.
ZOS has released their performance roadmap and reading it didn't really give me any confidence in this game's future other than the fact the devs have finally acknowledged that they need to do something.
The community has been screaming for the devs to stop releasing more and more broken content and to just focus on getting their game to work at all. Yet we probably wont see much of a difference for 6-9 months, who knows how many more players will leave this game by then.
I'll openly admit I'm addicted to this game which is why I still play it but if any other game performed to this standard nobody would play it. Remember how everyone kept DC'ing in Anthem and that game crumbled in a matter of months.
As an Australian, as you have all read by now we have pretty bad lag, I'm actually lucky because my prime time is when the server is in it's best condition. Cyro is ridiculously laggy and if we play during server prime time you can literally forget about PvP.
We already have 2s delays on abilities and y'all wanna add half sec cast times to ulti's next patch? Fix your damn game first!

That's pretty much how everyone who is still here feels. Everyone who isn't die hard has already stopped playing by now. And yet the player population is still healthy.

Nah, keep the threads rolling. ZOS needs to know how frustrated the console community is, and how much performance needs to be their focus going forward. We’re all getting very darn tired of feeling like second class citizens in this game.
I’m just surprised that the OP actually wants to continue playing the game in its present state — dealing with the standard performance BS on top of Aussie latency must be unbearable. I can’t tolerate the state of the game right now, and I live in Canada. I, for one, am back to playing Battlefield until ZOS does something about this BS. Just started playing Warframe as well. Both games run infinitely better than ESO, despite supporting even larger playerbases. The money I’m spending on those games is money I might have spent on ESO. Them’s the beaks when you rush new content and don’t make game stability a priority, ZOS...

gronoxvx✭✭✭✭✭No idea how to share a clip, but if it works this is what we had to endure last night australian time. Supposedly the off peak time for NA, so you would expect a better connection. But we got zos'd. Hard.
https://xboxclips.com/GronoXVX/20c22f89-13d6-439b-b082-fee24135c3a2/embed
Just as my group (mixed group of australians and NA players) got the red scroll and left the keep, we all get kicked to the log in screen. Better yet when we logged back in we were back at the beginning. If you look at the zone chat you can also see that quite a few people on DC also had to re-log back in so it seems like it was a mass kicking. If this doesnt show how horrible the performance is zos, then you really do not care about your player base.
P.s. i wish i remembered to clip this earlier to show we did have the scroll, but was blinded with rage at this point until someone in my group mentioned it.

Super annoying. Also, I see people talking about a “screen cheat”? On PS4, it’s a known issue that if someone takes a resource while a large scale battle is occurring at/near a keep, the resulting upgrade/downgrade to the keep will cause loading screens and possible game crashes for the attacking alliance. That’s what happened here, as some utter POS red flipped a resource while AD and DC were in the keep (DC trying to backcap):
https://youtu.be/UNZaYa2Ekes
Keep upgrades/downgrades were also responsible for the screen freeze fiasco last year. Might be what happened for you guys.Edited by Aurielle on August 4, 2019 1:16PM5 -

SoLooney✭✭✭✭✭OP is right, unless you absolutely love this game, people have been and are moving on to other games, besides raiding and writs, i dont participate in other activities in eso
The long load screens, the horrible frames, the horrible enemy telegraphs where you still get hit even though you were out of the red, ads not spawning in, freezing, infinite load screens, skills not firing after pressing that button, bars not swapping and this problem only escalates with horrible frames
Seriously? Console players have put up with this for years and no matter how many times we address this to zos, they sit on their fat butts and only worry about releasing their crown store items because they rather milk us than cater to us and avoid giving their base an enjoyable fun experience
So I guess better late than never but I'm not holding my breath, I wouldnt be surprised if their game improvement plans just flop on their faces3 -

Don’t create these threads? Does it messy up the sacred forums? Sorry not all of us live here so we just come here to vent about our broken game we’ve paid for over the years

✭✭Console? PcNA has been crap EVERY WHERE PvP, PvE, in houses, last couple of days. Random lag spikes then dc.
Can’t PvP. Can’t duel. Can’t do dungeons. Can’t kill trash overland. Can’t decorate my dumps. What’s the point. No maintenance this week? This week we NEED maintenance.
The game's performance is trash. The next patch won’t matter, nerf here, buff there. You’ll dc long before you notice anything lol.1 -

Looking forward to the new LOTR mmo.
Console & pc
Leyou (warframe) & amazon (New World pvp mmo canceled/used for lotro?)
Lumberyard engine based on Crytek’s CryEngine (400-1k pvp battles?)
Hope it turns out well...but really just needs to run better than eso to take my money.

At a certain point late might as well be never and it's at least close if not already past that mark.2
