PC performance VS console question.

MCBIZZLE300 · July 2020

I'm currently contemplating making the switch to pc from ps4 pro I was wondering if anyone else has done this and can truly compare the difference in performance? I only ever pvp in cyrodiil cp and ICP cp and want to know its its worth making the switch as its not going to be cheap.
Thanks

NA or EU
as they are very different, with NA usually being the better on all platforms..

Depends on what alliance you play. Ps4 still plagued by regular short load screens when north of line from Farragut to Rayles. If AD shouldn't impact you much. Suspect quality team at ZOS play AD only.

Add to that standard freeze screen crashes an unusually long load screens obviously

PC-EU has the same issue in the North too..

Same thing for Xbox Na and id imagine Xbox EU. As soon as you go north of Bleakers Outpost you get hit with like 10+ mini loadscreens, often right after eachother that last like 1 - 5 seconds each. Annoying as hell on your mount, my guild has generally stopped going up there at this point.

Im moving from xbox to pc. Will be using shadow.
My main reason is the gear management addon and framerate in the new zones.

But i dont have a lot of pvp experience. Server issues are probably the same but client side it will be a lot smoother. Best thing is to try it, you dont need the complete game for that.
But also keep in mind you will probably get the same performance upgrade with the ps 5.

I couldn't bear to play PC I think. Hardware differences, battle of the Add Ons, that nagging doubt of macros or CE or similar in particular in PvP.

At least on the whole in console land it's a level playing field.

PS4 ESO is all but broken at the moment. Its gone downhill so fast.

I have yet to see someone using either macros or add-ons for a tactical advantage or at all.
I have heared people make these claims after being killed, but it's nonsense.

You can make macros, but good players wouldn't use it as it limits you. A bad player might and would still die. What do you imagine a macro would actually do for you? You can't bypass the GCD so it makes no difference. Add-ons don't allow you any real advantage anymore. A lot of convenience, but no advantage that I have seen.

What is performance like? On ps4 its pretty much unplayable but im seeing youtubers saying pc is too. Don't know wether they are bieng dramatic or it really is bad on pc too. I can handle a bit of lag but its the gamebreaking skill delay i just cant deal with..
