    PS4 NA 10.01.2019 Cyrodiil

    Within 30m I load screen 3x in a fight (one of those was almost a minute), fell into the terrain & came back above it (this was new for me), & voice was bugged (half a year now wtf) so I couldn't hear or participate in raid.

    Going to take a pass on your 50% off Elsweyr, community pve event of fluff.

    Fix PvP please.

    PS4 NA 10.04.2018 Cyrodiil

    Playing the same time, prime time evening, & not one loading screen or any of the issues I mentioned in previous post from a few days ago.

    Possibly pve dragon event pulled bodies away, idk? So odd.

    Duuuuuude/Duuuuuudette...you travelled back in time!?!?
    What were the winning lottery numbers!?
    I’ll split it with ya!!!!

    Fixed!

    Cyrodiil has not got better in the past year unfortunately.

    Why I haven't been PVPing in Cyro the past 6 months. I thought sticking to BG's would be more consistent but desync still happens, massive latency spikes still happen, and out of nowhere FPS will go from 100+ to 35 for no reason. It's definitely sad as this is the best PVP available in a currently active MMO, but we know ZOS is not going to do much about it at this point. It also doesn't help that packets get routed to Akamai before going to ZOS's servers.

    I tried the same route, but I find bg's boring...real boring, may as well play a battle royal or fps game that's "balanced" & runs better.

    80% is a kind number when you have hallucinations of keep walls suddenly appearing in front of you every 5 seconds, keep walls and keep towers that appear to be destroyed suddenly restore themselves. Also It seems that everybody is wearing spinners or spriggans with the lover stone and 100 points into spell erosion or piercing, since skills seem to go though walls and keep doors. Basically to have a nice successful raid with no performance issues, no enemy players can be present in the area.

    I encourage people to make their own forums posts about this. Because it’s seriously has me second thinking why I keep playing. It’s not fun or fair in anyway and I’m sure other have similar opinions @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_KaiSchober @ZOS_BillE @ZOS_JessicaFolsom @ZOS_AntonioP

    I have way to many hours on this game 27k to be exact. 99% of it has been in Cyrodiil (Dec. 2024)
    Currently have 15 Grand Overlords and like to role play as a stealthy assassin.

    If I’m defending a keep I have a better chance entering through the breach than using a door to get in. Every single time I use a door at an attacked keep = load screen and death/crash. Same with camps. I’ll admit I have pretty crap internet, but even the people I run with get hit with a pretty lengthy load screen when entering.

    One of the easiest ways to avoid the lag and agony of load screens...don't play. It's tough, but at some point we have to stop complaining and start making the statements with our wallets. I have. I need to see action, not these fluffy plans that sound amazing. I've encouraged others to do the same as well. When ZoS puts their money where their mouth is and actually fixes these lingering performance issues that make the game unplayable then I'll start investing in the game once more. Until then, I shall dabble in other games and keep on eye on ESO.

    isn't it weird that during a keep fight, you and maybe another one have these problems, but the rest 100 players are fighting without problems? maybe the problem is at u not at the game

    That’s not true. When a keep flips everyone there gets a load screen. And 30 seconds later when the keep upgrades everyone there gets another load screen. And if the keep was breached at a wall instead of the door then everyone gets another load screen when the wall is repaired. I wasn’t like this for the first few years of the game and now it happens every time.

    I usually spend most of my time in Cyro (PS4 NA), but had taken a little time away to hunt dragons and get my Master Angler achievement after Elsweyr dropped. I have gone back recently and am also frequently experiencing the load screens during keep flips. It's worse than the random load screens that used to happen in weird spots to random people (for example, I was in a group once with some of my guildmates a couple years ago and three or four of us out of eight or so got a random load screen while just trying to leave Sej through a side door). These load screens now are horrible and I've gotten the dreaded "this may be an unusually long load time" screen fairly often during them, too. I've also noticed it will happen when you travel to a keep that flags when you are in the process of traveling and those last anywhere from a few seconds longer than usual to so long that the other alliance has made it inside and I come back dead at the shrine having had zero chance to defend myself.

    So can we just have the Castle Wall/Alliance Icon upgrade/capture Animations removed to finally remove these Loadscreens that destroy momentum and playability?

    Zos should get an award for creating the worst PVP in an mmo ever to exist. Or I should say taking some of the best pvp to exist and making it the worst. In other words they have ruined pvp completely.

    I would pay damn good money to see @ZOS_Gilliam or any of the devs get on xbox and try to play in that 30 day campaign. You will NEVER see it. It would be a disaster. Because that *** is unplayable.

    I would also like for zos to start taking cyrodil into account when they balance this game. Like with cast times, lets take dswing for example. Has a 1 second cast time, but in the 30 day on xbox that cast time goes up to 3 4 5 6 7 seconds sometimes. Its not even worth using at that point because people just walk away. Truly shameful.

    QFT.

    I have spent 90% of my MMO life as a PVPer.
    I spent 7 months working towards High Warlord in vanilla wow. All I did was PVP.
    Warhammer Online came out. Leveled up, spent all my time PVPing my black orc or engineer.
    SWTOR came out. Leveled up, and spent the rest of the time in battlegrounds or Ilum.
    GW2 came out, same thing. Leveled all my asura and then just PVP'd (end game was like nonexistent there).
    ESO, leveled up, tried pvp and saw it for what it was...a huge clusterF of bad design.

    I laughed hard the first time I saw someone refer to Cyrodiil as "mount simulator".

    I think the fundamental issue with ESO is that it's just all over the place. Sometimes choice (especially when its too much) is a bad thing.

    I get load screens all the time around keeps, when Flags ARE NOT being flipped, even with no zergs around.
    The best was last week I was fighting a DK an everytime I went in to exe cute I would get a loadscreen, like 4 times in 5 mins.

    This has been a problem on console for over a year. Trying to capture or defend keeps is almost impossible. Due to the fact that you will guaranteed to hit a load screen mid fight. It’s simply unfair that mid combat you can be completely wiped because of a load screen. On console they last up to minutes, and there’s nothing you can do about it. This applies to anywhere you are at regardless of keep or outpost. Every update up until elsweyr this never happened. Some suggestions to prevent this and make cyrodiil enjoyable again are to leave keeps with the end caps so it’s doesn’t have to upgrade or downgrade. Remove load screens when walls are being repaired. This honestly makes no sense because your don’t hit a load screen when a wall or door comes down. Why should it if it’s being upgraded? Everyone at Zenimax please look into this. Because players are literally quitting because it’s literally unplayable.

    Running around with that zerg is half your problem Silly. Thanks for the blue screen at Aleswell

    Do you guys have the Xbox one X? I do and can usually play just fine until the past couple of days. I am hoping maintenance fixes it.
