PS4 Extremely Frustrating Bugs After Today's Patch

    Another new annoying thing I've noticed is that if you're solo or in a group and someone summons a banker or merchant, it'll despawn your non combat pets.

    Just remembered the latest bug: when digging up an antiquity, a random alchemy ingredient pops up to show what research you've done on it.

    And still no update from ZOS on a fix. And to think they were so concerned last year with improving communication. Why am I not surprised nothing improved.

    Yeah see I mean you do a little looking and thinking about the amount of interaction that they have and start thinking about what an easy gig it must be (I mean just ping pong emails internally and surf) and you get to the point where you can’t in good conscience buy that pack of crowns, or tell your friends or wife to play the game, etc - because it is just flat out the principle of it.

    And I really want to be able to in good conscience advocate for the game. But how can you when the team is led like this.

    Any progress on being able to post anything at the Guild Trader? Damn frustrating.

    The cursor is technically moving, just not visually updating. So it is possible to work around the broken part by switching with L1 and then R1 to 'see' where you are in your list.

    Very far from ideal, but will still let you sell your items.

    Thank you for that information!

    Understand why many people stopped play this game almost evry update its some new error and bug. And support looks like they dont care. Still sell merchant in marked shop and its bugged almost a scam. If people stop subscribe to this «beta game» and dont buy anything i should think devs start take people play this game serious.

    I mean, is there an official response? I haven’t seen any official word on this issue yet let alone an ETA for a fix. Is it too much to ask for better communication?

    So when's the next incremental update to fix this, anybody?

    Still no response from the bug fixers?
    Thanks.

    I know that post, but that’s days ago and it’s just thanks for notifying us. I’d like to have an official word from Gina or Jessica about this, but right now it seems like ZOS hasn’t even acknowledged this bug yet officially.

    As I stated bfore, I THINK they will go to patch it on 3 May, because of verification... you will hear it on Monday from Gina....
    ...as always....Question is : WILL there be a Patch on the 3rd of May ?
    ....or do they let things go, ´till Blackwood release ?

    As I remember, there are no plans for an incremental Patch from now on, till Blackwood release....

    Aunt Edith says: Sure, you can draw the "Emergency Patch" Card....but do THEY consider it as a NEED for an emergency Patch ???

    Feel like we're constantly being kept in the dark here. Every time I get one of these game breaking issues now I'm reporting it to Sony. I feel like they might actually take some action and get the game in a playable state.

    Game's gone unplayable after patch, do they not play test before releasing?

    ESO is a pretty big game and a comprehensive test using manual and automated testing would take hours. I have always been under the impression that they focus testing on what has changed. That explains the pile of regressions that we always see.

    Regression testing is a MUST in something like this, even for "small" changes. That can be annoying when you can't fix a typo, but it is necessary. (I know, it bothered me when a past company I worked for switched to this for their website. A small change to fix a typo could not get in unless massive testing of that area was already planned.)

    Things like this are why I made a thread a long time back asking about the long-term direction for the game.

    It got (incorrectly) moved to the Bug forum which was not the point!

    You all cant expect ZoS employess or ZoS workers to drop their wife or their husband or their kids and stay at ZoS HQ for non stop. ESO servers are running 24 hours seven days a week. They cant just stand guard in watching over the server to a point of having to shut down the server every single time of day or whenever their server gets these issues. I bet they are running simulation tests to see if they are able to produce the cause of issue in order to find a better coding to counter against the caused issues. it takes time and work. It cant happen over night.

    If they actually tested their patches instead of launching them broken this wouldn’t be a problem

    This has been a consistent problem for years, maybe instead of working from home ZOS needs to go into the office

    ZOSoft may as well get rid of the forums and allocate resources to employees that can keep up with testing, bug fixing, updates, & content releases.

    Keep a pts forum for those players testing, "customer support", and news/patch notes on official site.

    Is this lack of empathy/ accountability/ ownership/ communication endemic to the gaming industry or just zos ? Honestly curious as I can’t for the life of me think of any other business in a different vertical that would act like this and still be in business/ retain the same personnel.
    For example, where I work, it’s constantly reinforced that the client is king and that communication/ high level of service is everything.
    Thx

    That has been happening for a long time. I first noticed it several months ago - so it's not something that's been broken by the latest patch.

    My experience with MMOs has shown this to be true. Not good support or any really good feedback mechanism.

    I am just on the edge of finding a new MMO to play myself. Too bad WoW tanked itself (in my view at least).

    Any other company that had this many problems every time they updated their product would be out of business.

    Is Microsoft aware that ZOS can't seem to update/maintain their game without major breaks every.last.time?

    Does management not hold their programmers/developers/testers accountable for their work?

    Honestly I feel bad for the devs. From what I heard the game was in development before skyrim. So its basically using obvlions game engine or one they made around that time.

    They must really hate us console players. Every time we have horrid game breaking bugs we're stuck with them for ages with no info on if or when they'll be fixed. At least pc they tend to fix things in a moderate timeframe, console they just go "lol no" and ignore us.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno Day 4, this is ridiculous. Say something, say we have no idea, say we don’t care, say it’s a new feature “Mystery Sales 1.0, what did you sell, you don’t know”, my goodness tell us something.
