It's getting a little ridiculous. Anyone having the same issues?

    For sure. It’s been really bad lately.

    Even more so in Cyrodiil.

    No, what are you talking about? Mine works perfectly all the time. Never had it cut out in the middle of a trial for no reason, or go missing for weeks at a time. Never had to run something like vAA and pay extra attention to the group's movement on the first boss so I knew what direction to run. Never had to drop out of a vMOL run because I was the runner and couldn't communicate with my group. Never had the entire channel completely disappear from my menu. Never had to resort to running PS4 party chat instead of the always-there, always-reliable, always-working voice chat.

    And no, that is not my dog being threatened so I say these things

    Not all the time. I've tried this. Still fails. In fact, it made the lag worse. And no, its not my internet. Its the game.

    Works for all in my guilds and a faster DNS server would not make lag worse.

    You know that DNS might be "fast" but it is not the fastest, using Google DNS compared to my own provider DNS is spiking the PING with 20-30% for me

    You can try other DNS providers like OpenDNS was trying to keep this simple as possible for the forums.

    Before the last patch, Google dns usually fixed voice issues.

    It has been a mess in recent history though better the last few nights.
