Perptual PC Verification issue with patch

zharkovian · May 2021

Another patch and again, my wife's ESO will not login, times out, sits on first loading screen. ZOS please post a fix for this or an instruction how to force verify a PC after the patch

I am having the same issue, I can login, but sits there until it times out on the verification screen.

Try this @dark_zebra : login again and when it goes to the screen with the revolving dragons in the bottom right corner, wiggle your mouse every 15-20 seconds, see if it does the timeout thing then.

I suspect (but not verified) that after the patches, first run through initializes the game again, reloads the textures etc, so if you're on a mechanical hard drive this can take longer than expected, so the launcher times out with the 308 code, probably never happens for people with an SSD. Hopefully, wiggling the mouse every so often will extend the timeout timer so that the initialization can be completed.

I can't login either and my installation is on SSD.. I get "login timed out" every time I try to login at the moment.

It is one annoying problem. I hope ZOS can fix it.

You can find a list of troubleshooting in the help article below that can help with the time out errors disconnecting you from ESO.

What do I do if I get an error stating "Login Error: Login Timeout" when logging into The Elder Scrolls Online?
