He didn't say anywhere that other games were crashing - just that this was putting off his gaming experience.
Since eso is literally unplayable because of crashing every 20 minutes in playing different games and it causes them to crash as well I’ve played this other game for 2 years and never have it happened once and since dragon hold I’ve crashed on a different game 6 times now in the last couple of days! How aren’t the severs taken down and fixed immediately? It’s literally ruining my gaming experience as a whole not just on eso
I wonder if all PS4 threads are going to get locked. How about you guys fix your game we all paid for?
I blue screen a LOT. My boyfriend, on the other hand, gets the start of a BS but then he comes back. It’s so odd.BomblePants wrote: »But.... I haven’t blue screened since the patch.... and before the patch it happened twice - and I play a lot.... just sayin, since we are talking about player experience here....

You'll just have to wait.

I have to do that more often when a program like ESO corrupts and fragments my drive.

^^^ This. ESO needs to be able to read and write the HDD constantly. The more stuff you have on the HDD ( more than 50% full) and the more fragmented it is the longer it takes to get the data it needs. All it does is cause the game to become unstable.
Ironically, BSOD on PC is typically caused by a memory issue and so is the one on PS4(in ESO's case)
If you have an SSD you shouldn't have to rebuild/defrag. If anything, it's bad for the SSD

ESO or any games will not cause other games to crash.CassandraGemini wrote: »I'm far from being a White Knight for ZoS, but does it really make sense to blame ESO when a different game crashes, just because there is a chronological correlation to an ESO update?

Nice strawman bro. Yours is from 15 years ago

I wasn't talking about them and you miss the point that SSDs have a life span and unnecessarily read/writing will reduce its lifecycle (unless something has changed over the last 5 years). Are you familiar with how flash storage works? Flash doesn't suffer from fragmentation issues - it's one of the primary reasons to use SSD > HDD. How the "PS4 stores its data" is completely irrelevant due to how the SDD fetches and stores that data.
Edit: The bottomline is your "maintenance" for SSDs is wrong
