Fingers crossed that today's maintenance fixed our crash problem.

Large group only? Still have random crashes changing zones.

IMO, would be really helpful in a thread like this if everyone would post a snapshot of their rig and info.
I haven't crashed much, maybe 1 or 2 times but only during heavy pvp battles in Grayhost when there are a lot of close interaction and a lot of lighting related effects going off ( that had always been a big issue for mac users when we had 32 bit client, been great over the past few yrs since 64 bit client.
@ZOS_SarahHecker will tomorrow's maintenance finally fix our crash problems? Three months living with these crashes is quite insane!!

Tomorrow's maintenance is a server reboot and will not include a patch. Our next planned patch for PC & console is when Update 29 launches next month.

I get how frustrating crashes are, as I had them in other games. But people need more info to be able to help you. Do you have a thread detailing the issue somewhere? Do you have any more info about your system? Or an error code or something? And what do you mean exactly when 'dumped', is that a crash to desktop, or blackscreen, or bluescreen, or error code crash, or something else?ZOS_SarahHecker wrote: »The team is aware of an issue affecting some players in large groups and is currently working on a fix.

It's not just large groups. I mostly play alone.
I log in, I go to bank, I get dumped
I wait. I log in again when allowed, 1-15 minutes later.
I make it to load screen, i manage to glimpse my toon, I get dumped
I wait. I log in again when allowed, 1-15 minutes later.
I manage to look at my Inventory, or get buffed & ready to go, or perhaps even to pick up daily writs... I get dumped
I wait. I log in again when allowed, 1-15 minutes later.
I get back to writs, the world around me stops responding. Not quite a freeze, as I can still walk, jump, open my inventory, but shopkeeper does not respond, I cannot hit anything, I cannot pick up anything, cannot interact, or actually DO anything, beside walk around and open inventory. Nothing responds, cannot transport on map, but cannot exit game either. Eventually, 30 sec to 3 minutes later, YOU KNOW IT: DUMP!
... and so it goes. 2 months of this. I am tired. I am a bloody adult, with life, job, family.
I get a couple hours at night to play and relax before I crash. I want to immerse myself into this world I pay hard cash for.
I am tired of so many threads we try and talk about this getting closed as 'answered', or as 'bashing' or...
I am tired of not getting heard, and not getting answers. WE deserve better
I am tired of having attempted over and over every solution given, from updating all drivers, to dumping game AND STEAM, and reloading everything anew, to dropping my mods, and more. I have followed EVERY.SINGLE.SOLUTION.SUGGESTED.
I.AM.NOT.ALONE AND THEY.DO.NOT.WORK!
I am tired of ZOS giving no timeline nor a real acknowledgment of all the issues around MULTIPLE ERROR TYPES /CODES, and some dumps being without errors at all... simply dumped back to black screen, or to STEAM, or to Launcher
I am tired of other gamers who respond with "I NEVER have any problems; must be your rig / your internet connection / your age / you are a ***&&%^%&& (insert some offensive remark) / you are a noob / you just complain for nothing / be nice to ZOS for giving us this game / you should be grateful / have you tried unplugging and replugging (hahaha so funny) / are you a girl? If you are a girl that's your problem. You all just complain / ... <insert negative comment of some kind, asserting I/we are just idiots of some type or another> ..."
I am tired of being so frustrated and angry, when I should be able to relax with the game I PAY GOOD MONEY FOR
Can we have an answer that is complete, that acknowledges the problems on multiple levels - NOT FOR ONE SINGLE ERROR CODE, but for the systemic issue?
I'd rather not have any fancy clothes updates (who the hell needs yet another useless outfit, that we cannot wear BECAUSE WE CANNOT PLAY THE BLOODY BASIC GAME?), no new pets, no ne DLC, AND have a game that is playable. All the pretty paint and decor slapped on top of the game does nothing to hide the bloody cracks and crumbling walls!
Please, give us some answers, and a solution, because I just lost 2 months of paid game, and some days I cannot even make it in and stay long enough to get my daily freebies, let alone actually play.

@ZOS_SarahHecker @ZOS_Gideon @ZOS_KaiSchober Yes, I random tagged some... because we need to get this out there
This happens when your internet connection is interrupted while playing. It then disconnects you to the login screen. Some possible issues could be your ISP, or a malfunctioning router. The reason why you can still move is because the world is created by your videocard, while the interactions with anything is serverside. So without internet, you can only see the world, but not interact with it.I wait. I log in again when allowed, 1-15 minutes later.
