    When I played on PC, I almost always experienced an extremely long loading screen after an update, but it was usually just for that first time of logging in after an update. It seemed to be worse on my laptop than on my desktop PC, possibly because of differences in CPU speeds and other technical differences.

    Now that I'm playing on a MacBook Air (until I replace the hard drive on my PC or just buy a new PC), it doesn't seem to be as bad, at least not in terms of infinite loading screens. On the other hand, 99% of the time I can't get the game to close properly so I end up having to use force quit.

    Nice I've tried to log in twice now. I enter password, click log in and it has a loading screen for a while until it tells me I'm disconnected due to inactivity.

    Nice one, ZOS!

    Yep - just got caught by this. Travelling from Glenumbra - Crosswych wayshrine to Grahtwood Cormount wayshrine - got caught in a +/- 3 minute load screen.

    So took the next mission and off to Alik'r , Kulati Mines, 5+ minutes in load screen. Suspect I am going to be timed out for lack of activity....

    Is that "+/- 3 minute" load screen until you killed the game, or arrived at your destination? I got stuck entering a delve yesterday, and after several minutes (did not count as had wandered off and come back) I killed the game. On re-entry, I was still outside the delve.

    Just hit one after doing some Main Story and trying to exit Harborage to Stonefalls. I call it a day. (PCEU)
    (After writing above got out. So it was "only" ~8mins loading screen.)

    First was to arrive at destination. I am now circa 8 minutes trying to get to Alik'r. Going to kill the game and give up for tonight.

    The nasty thing is that there is now a 30 second "sit in the corner" while the game deals with Important things after failing to exit from the loading screen. I have yet to encounter this, but I am sooooo looking forward to it when I do.

    Which server is everyone one? I haven't played much yet today, but I had no probs so far with PC/NA but 3 tries so far, I can't log into PC/EU

    edit -
    well that answers that, a banner just went up that they're investigating a server issue on EU

    Same here. Keeping the game on a SSD is such a waste.

    So! I logged in just fine - always have had a 30 to 60 second load to character select - sometimes more but not really an isse.

    Define long! I often get 3 -4 minute 'loading' screens when travel between homes or waypoints.

    Was happy recently to get fibre optic to home with massive speed increases and notacibly shorter load screens in ESO.

    I just 'ported' from grand psijic villa to mara's kiss public house - about ten minutes ago - still on loading screen.

    Option1 - wait
    option 2 - force quit

    result - peaved that this issue is stopping progress of any kind.

    Well! That's just how it is. I can understand why folk are angry though.

    Hill areas! 3 minutes trying to get to character select just to get 304 - character already logged in.

    Then - a minute trying - only to get error = unable to connect make sure you have a valid internet connection!

    One minute 5 seconds - timeout - THEN continue to try to log in!

    Gonna restart PC then try again later.

    'As for Golden rule' - first of all this is not an acceptable excuse. Second, we can tell be simply reading this forum that long loading screens is a long time and ongoing problem.

    For clarity; PC EU Server from North East England. All drivers up to date no other issues with the machine.

    Yeah. Haven't had a load screen yet that was under 2 minutes. Even reloading ui and even just loading from the login screen to the character select. Really annoying. :/
