Just unstable. Constant freeze, lag, crash, and turn-based play. Is there any hope?

    It is not. It's absolutely playable not on prime time. It is broken maybe 4-5 hours a day, which is about 20% of the time.

    The removal of proc sets during tests has improved performance even in crowded areas but when organized groups are around, server collapses. Cross-healing was activated again and I think that it plays a major role in desyncs and skill delay.

    Except peak hours, Cyro performs pretty nice. For me, at least.

    It is broken by far more hours, but i agree that if you don't have a life nor a job, you can have fun in Cyro.

    I do not think that's quite right. Cross healing has not affected organised groups at all, since healing is and was available inside the group.
    Large groups, however(organised or not), do seem like they are causing lag. That could be because the server has to check so many xyz positions and hp values and send them back to every player around.
    When it first gets laggy we get some xyz desyncs and rubber banding, in more severe cases we get hp desyncs like you go from 100 to 0 in one shot (at least it looks like it) or we have technically dead people who can't move but appear to have some hp left, sometimes even regenerating health. After a few seconds and a server hiccup they die properly.
    I have also seen a few characters called Test in PC EU Gray Host, usually prime time, maybe the devs are actually playing their game now. Fingers crossed.

    I play on non-peak hours, performance is as bad as during the pre-test the moment more than a few players from each faction gather at a resource/keep: it starts deteriorating. The answer is not to start deleting combat, and I don't agree having to go through months of live testing (like last year), because they can't improve their infrastructure. Though I like the no-proc idea (and it'd be cool to have it in its own campaign) , performance is a lag/desync gallore, very difficult to enjoy Cyro, and very disappointing.

    Yeah I'm not sure why zos is looking for a proverbial silver bullet to the server issues when in reality its probably a host of issues piggy backing off of one another. I could definitely notice the changes of limited healing and smaller groups in cyrodiil despite what their testing showed them.

    We aren’t experiencing the proc test on PS4 but lately the lag has been the worst ever, especially today.

    My toon does this weird jerky thing like she’s just light attacking but I’m trying to get skills to fire but nothing is working.

    Could it be the Crimson sets that everyone is wearing now? Lol

    Exactly - it's working great as far as the server is empty and you're not involved in any combat.

    Log into cyrodil. See the latency. Log out. That is pretty much what it comes down to at prime time

    I've been getting that off and on in PvE areas. There has been a definite degradation of service since the recent storms hit Texas. I've also seen a variety of different internet issues outside of ESO that could be related to the issues in Texas.

    For me it’s something different.

    My toon will have one dagger above her head and one held down low, and then very quickly switch hands. I’ll see if I can get some video next time it happens, but sometimes I get caught up in the battles and forget, lol!

    And even then, it's only fun if you don't like to actually PvP.

    I think that is far too much of the game now, unfortunately.

    It’s definitely worse due to the cross heals being re-implemented. I can’t even wait for ball groups to log off now to enjoy some Cyro, it just always bad.

    Lol, it’s true that performance gets better during MYM, but it’s hardly PvPrs fault that the PvErs APM is so low it doesn’t hurt the ping as much.

    Low APM solo players vs experienced high APM AOE spamming PvP players..... hmmm.

    The lag is there even when you play empty campaing and solo a resource. There is something else wrong with cyro, you don't get that lag when you fight like 8 enemies in pve zones. It's not the gear or number of players or healing. For real. Then when the campaing is full and there is a big fight with loads of players, unplayable. But i think it is because of that original reason of lag, the one that is present at all times.
