• PC/Mac: No maintenance – April 6

Can't open doors/gates, or complete door/gate related quest tasks

This has been an ongoing problem since the last patch, and the slow, glacial creep with which ZOS responds to technical support tickets is only compounding the aggravation. When is THIS gameplay issue going to be resolved?

    Move away from them helps. It's the priority interaction change that is the problem, sometimes it places the cursor on objects further away than the interaction in front of you. The best thing to do is move back a bit so the further object is out of range and won't take priority in your click window. I found this works best especially on those pesky secret doors behind cabinets.

    I've done that, and every variation I, and others, can think of. I can't find the targets to trigger the interaction. Thanks for the suggestion though.

    I've found with some doors that the interaction point is a bit higher than it is supposed to be, so perhaps try looking upwards?

    Yep...Done that too.

    Oddly, in Haven, there are 4 gates. 2 on the seawards & landward sides. Facing the seaward gates, I can enter heave no the right seaward gate and exit on the right landward gates, but can't exit/enter those gates. The right seaward/landward gates, I just wind up facing away from them.

    here for gates, especially Haven:

    even if it is mentioned something in PTS patch notes i wasn't keeping attention for it...

    + everything said: also companions or quest npc's can block access to dors - on locked doors "unlock" it is greyed... moving around usually helps for this, didn't had to completely dismiss companion.

    I have yet to even receive a boilerplate email from ZOS acknowledging my tech support tickets. It is readily apparent to me that ZOS has no respect for its player base. Even though we are the ones who pay their salaries. Show some respect for your player base...fix your game.
