As the title says. When keeps upgrade or downgrade I get a load screen every time. Yesterday I was in a keep by myself and got 3 load screens in 5 mins. Each one longer than the rest.

Can this be looked into.

    very interesting, good catch koolio...

    I've noticed those load screens around keeps but hadn't connected it to keep status change (other than when the flags flip)...

    Sometimes this happens back to back when Resources are continuously flipping. Load screen into load screens

    Yeah to us too on Xbox. We get random load screens now all over the place.

    Incredibly annoying and causes a one sided loss or win in fights when a whole group freezes

    Has Zos taken notice of this? It probably affects all platforms. They realized and learned from one player that our guilds roster hindered the games performance unless you searched so only one name was showing. It had nothing to do with actually looking at the roster.

    If zos didn’t implement that ridiculous feature where keeps downgrade we wouldn’t have this issue. But now we have to suffer because zos doesn’t fix their bugs nor do the address them. I also love how this load screen only affects the smaller group. Cannot tell you how many times I’m near a keep with my small group and we get the load screen only to be taken out of it with 50+ of the enemy just standing over us teabagging

    If I make a post regarding bugs it generally gets ignored

    Just got 3 load screen inside a keep with no one around but me.


    Almost every time a keep flips 4 of my 6 man group gets caught in a load screen and dies.

    I'm getting load screens in both PvE and PvP these days, so yes, keep "changes" often (usually?) trigger one, but the primary trigger is... POOR BLOODY GAME PEERFOMANCE!

    This needs to be fixed ASAP pvp near keeps us actually undoable. Causes everyone to freeze and hit a load screen in a area. Most keeps get defended because the attackers all hit loads screens.

    HOLY CRAP?! Is that why I get random load screens just standing on the wall???

    You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.

    Can they just remove the stupid visual upgrades? From a battle POV extended parapets do nothing. I am entirely okay irrespective of what level the keep is, it looks the same. I mean, they don't change the appearance of resources when they upgrade. Just remove this and the loading screen problem, at least from this issue, is also removed.

    Actually had a loadscream today when the game went from day to night. Whatever ZOS is doing, that are doing it wrong.

    Well, here we are OVER A YEAR LATER

    I'm sorry but this was a terrible idea. It basically added a TON more load screens to PvP with minimal benefit from a gameplay standpoint.
    Keeps once again have Degrade turned back on. However, the degrade rate is much faster; a Keep can lose a resource level in about 5 minutes instead of an hour.

    Please revert this change. All it's done is multiply the load screens, at least on PS4, making the last year of PvP even more miserable than it needs to be.
