How do y'all deal with this lag? Just poking along then dead. Constantly.

    Seriously - 2v1. Then everyone stands still and nothing works. Then I'm suddenly dead.

    ???

    How is this fun?

    I move to one of the 7 day campaigns when things get laggy on Ravenwatch. They're generally not too bad.

    PC EU here, and outside zerg vs zerg situations, combat worked pretty well for me, both in cyrodiil and imperial city
    I'm a single character man.
    Stamblade. Khajiit. Mostly pvp.
    And...that's it.

    Same here. Battlgrounds, IC, 7 day campaigns are all pretty responsive for me. Though my home campaign, Ravenwatch, is unplayable in the afternoon/evening during MYM. Still, at least there's other options such as the others I mentioned.

    You should disable addons, at least most and you can reduce graphics.

    @LarsS There's a difference between low fps and lag. Lowering your graphics won't stop your skills from firing 5s after casting (if they fire at all).

    Well and its even MYM currently, so the PvP performance is better than usual. Makes you look forward to PvP outside of MYM right?

    If this is what you are doing, you shouldn't play the game.

    You have 6 stars and thus I'm going to assume you're not new to the game and know exactly what's up. I've been in voice coms with players frustrated with the game's performance for 7 years. Every time I can remember, whenever someone indicated they were disconnecting, lagging, or had some other game performance issue that reached a tipping point, they just indicated they were going to leave for the night. Voices weren;t raised. Keyboards weren't smashed. There were no conspicuous displays of anger. Because we all know the deal with PvP. It's so common that it has become the norm and thus nothing to get emotional about.
    Make Rush of Agony "Monsters only." People should not be consecutively crowd controlled in a PvP setting. Period.

    that's all fine and dandy but if there's performance issues for 7 years when there's other games with the exact same mode and larger amount of players and they can do it almost entirely lag free, there's actual reason to be upset at what you're spending your money on.

    but this keyboard is sweet, i aint smashing it.

    For me the cut-off point on PC/EU is about 5-6pm (Berlin time). That's when my skills stop working or get severe delay, and that usually won't stop until midnight. Right now I'm just playing in the early afternoon to cope with it, but the only reason I'm able to do that is because I have some time off from work. Looking forward to lagging my way through Cyro after work again...

    Very few people will be using PC from 2005 hardly any complaints are spec-related.

    This is about LATENCY. SERVER SIDE ISSUES.

    I have problems with BG myself. I can drop to 20fps, even and have a good PC. (not the best, but still good).
    Delay has nothing to do with it, megaserver affects us all the same. Even if you are on a cable with 500mb/s.

    I use similar settings as above, it's just visual effects that kill fps this game. Especially if you are stuck on high MMR and all you can see is teleport sorc.

    Very poor performance at BG. IC or even Cyro with max pop has less problems.
    - Where "Update on Cyrodiil Performance & Upcoming AOE Tests"? I wish ZOS would stop kicking players' balls, especially those on Cyro

    Last night while running battlegrounds with my friends a number of my skills would not work at all after our first match. I play a DK and I could not use my chains, shield charge and Dragon leap ultimate. After 2 rounds of these skills refusing to work I just removed them from my bar. I was not having issues with ping or anything so I have no clue as to why I was having problems.
