Hey guys,

It's hard to keep ESO+ up in this environment. At least reboot the server, try something...I would like to PvP in a correct manner outside of my other activities and at the moment it's tarnishing my gaming experience as a whole.

I know there's a memo out about server work down the line, but try something in the immediate present, please. It's out of control.

    PS your PVE raids are NOT performing very well either.
    Bugs, FPS issues and slow combat/no fluidity.

    Yeah I crashed in GH more this weekend than ever. Whatever “back end” work they are doing during the last couple of maintenances is just making the lag and desynchs worse.

    Yeah I unsubbed, but you can try and play in Ravenwatch if you want less lag. There is not much action there outside of prime time but what I do is play Raven during prime time and then switch to grey host when it gets quiet. Sometimes in the off-peak times I can use my skills and not crash too often in grey host.

    This is eso. Has been that way at least 5 years. A lot of.talk about fixing , no results. And never will be imho. So I either enjoy it as is or do something else.

    I’ve had a lot of lag, freezes, and disconnects the last few days in PS GH campaign.

    Several times when I get booted and I relog I have to queue up for Cyrodiil again. Not fun, ZOS. This campaign is close and the queues are long sometimes. That happened yesterday during an emp push.

    I try to siege and my ballista tells me it’s busy, or has a 5 second lag.

    Large groups of other faction players makes using any skills impossible for the 10 seconds of so before I die. I guess that’s your zerg detector. I break free 3 times but don’t actually do so. Had a couple of rubber banding episodes today too.

    If the only solution for this is to go to a dead campaign, that is not acceptable.

    To answer some questions above:

    I played NO CP during the confinement periods, but wanted to see what PvP was like with these new sets as I saw a multitude of subjects about them, so here I am on Greyhost PC EU.

    What I've seen so far: (Excuse my lateness on the subject)
    - Dark con rips me off wall positions and make me fall sometimes, even if I counter (players know a sweet spot and abuse it)
    - Oils, Balistas, Trebuchets and doors are busy
    - Breaking free three times isn't enough sometimes and you stay static/death
    - CC immunity is a myth and isn't working as intended (4 seconds after a break free, so essentially 4 second + desynchs)
    - Ravenswatch is emptier than it used to be a few years ago (shame)
    - Larger groups (guilds) have chosen 40k health points (more or less) as their base line (wowsies, what happeend?)
    - Mist forming has become anti-play (They just go around in circles)

    To resume the years of PvP:
    So essentially, things people have been complaining about over the years have just resurfaced once again, but in a new context of 'Let's all bunch up to get something and hopefully with this much HP we won't die in the lag!'
    Long fights, so many animations on the screen, desynchs, sets adding to bad performance/doing strange things, high ping, low fps and timeouts.

    *shakes head* Yes I'm not happy, Jan and if I can't do something I like, well my interest in the game is going to go down.

    Crashed last night also, PSN5

    Red/Yellow move as a whole server Zerg, & all faction's poplocked with a 30m-1hour queue time daily.

    This is going to be the case when mega servers are not region/client locked and most PSN players worldwide floods one popular campaign, on one mega server, it seems.

    lol all this and when I put in a ticket I got the canned answer about checking my system and speaking to my isp. No wonder people are short tempered.

    Yeah it's pretty insulting for them to treat us like idiots and offhandedly try to make it look like it's not their fault. I mean, maybe if I reset my modem for the 100th time Cyrodiil will magically become lag/crash free? Please.

    I know one game that restarts their servers daily, it helps clear up the cache and ensures that the game runs smooths each day. Why not start doing this 2-3x a week. Maybe do it Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

    Yep, have to agree to the OP. Crashed like crazy since the official statement and it seems there are more people logging in due to it, which sort of adds to the problems.

    This cannot wait another week, let alone years. Something needs to be done, we can't play properly.

    Only if you log in at 4am in the morning (European time zones) it's somewhat more palyable.

    Have had a LOT of lag in dungeons today too (PVE). Casting skills and HAs remain stuck casting/channeling.

    We have been crashing on Xbox NA too. It’s better than it was before they gave us a patch, but we still DC a lot.
