This happens all the time and usually if you hit ESC to bring up the logout menu and then go back to the game the controls become responsive again....I thought it was just me but seems like others have this bug as well. In fact when I was not aware that ESC would fix this I have died due to this bug and incurred repair costs because of it.
Yes, combat needs to be improved quite a bit. Blocking currently takes priority over everything but weapon swapping and dodging do not when they should. Also, weapon swapping needs to be instant.
Having played WoW and GW2 where the distance of their servers is about the same from where I live here on the other side of the world, yes, it IS NOT on our side. If those 2 games can pull FPS-quality-triggerfinger-reaction, then logically with the exact same connection, I should be able to achieve the same results with eso.
And mind you I played both game for years so its not a small time sample from which to draw on. Probably eso will become optimized as time and population stabilizes? Who knows? We can only hope until we got fed up
