(XBOX) Actions taking longer after update

HugoG92 · September 2021

I've noticed that after the update some actions are taking longer to fire, such like mounting, accepting group finder requests and choosing targets ( a.k.a. tab target ). These are the ones I've noticed so far. Are these intended or something went wrong with the update? @ZOS_Adrikoth

Hey there @HugoG92

Thanks for reporting the issues that you encountered! Which console are you using (base console, Series X|S, etc.) and are you using Performance Mode? If so, do you encounter these issues in Fidelity Mode as well?

I'm playing on the Xbox One X, but my guild mates playing on the Series X|S are reporting the same issue. Apparently any action that needs to hold any button is taking longer to fire. One of my guildies playing on the series x noticed that holsting weapons and multi deconstruction is taking longer too.

PS: by taking longer I mean we need to hold the button longer

This is the same in both video modes @HugoG92

I am on PS4 Pro and mounting via the touchpad requires a much longer press of the button.

Also, as mentioned in another thread, unsheathing weapons takes longer, too.

PS5 EU performance mode and having the same issue when trying to hard target. Haven't tried mounting yet

A friend and I experienced a one secondish delay to everything yesterday. Casting my extended ritual on templar seems to take a long time before actual cast.

zammo · September 2021

Can confirm this is also a thing on base PS4

Vaoh · September 2021

I can confirm on both PS4 and PS5. All my guildies and zone chat have noticed this too. It seems that inputs are now take twice as long to activate.

For me on my control layout... I think B... I noticed the issue happening with these actviites:
• Sheathing Weapons (Holding Left on D-Pad)
• Bringing up the wheel of options on another player.... invite to group, trade, duel, etc (Holding START)
• Accepting group, trade, duel invite from another player by bringing up the wheel again (Holding START)
• **Tab Target** this is the worst offender (Holding Square)

Indeed, and this is TERRIBLE.
After 6 YEARS my Muscle Memory is ALWAYS WRONG NOW.
ZOS, please revert the timing changes.

Also happening on PS5 with PS4 game, and it is really annoying.

katanagirl1 · September 2021

I also noticed that it affects multi-crafting in that I don’t hold the square button long enough to select more than one item, so it just crafts one each time.

JayKwellen · September 2021

@ZOS_Adrikoth

Also on Xbox one X, having the same issues with multiple actions, like mounting up for example. I go to mount, and since you now have to press the button longer I end up just opening thr map over and over instead of mounting up. It's extremely annoying.

FOULMISCHIEF · September 2021

I noticed this myself and did my own testing. I’ll attach a screen shot of my results that I originally posted on Twitter here (alongside a GIF showcasing the old and new hold durations). I have yet to receive a response there.

Testing was done using the performance graphics mode.

PS5 NA Performance mode - hard targeting is a nightmare now because of this, especially in the middle of a fight like Cloudrest where you may need to swap between Zmaja and one of the minis.

HugoG92 · September 2021

Just got online and noticed that the issue persists after the maintenance. Can we get an ETA for a fix or at least an acknowledgment of the issue? @ZOS_Adrikoth @ZOS_GinaBruno

FOULMISCHIEF · September 2021

I've been told this issue was being looked at by the team (QA?). Any news for us? @ZOS_Adrikoth @ZOS_BillE

One can only hope. Can we get an update or an ETA? @ZOS_Adrikoth @ZOS_GinaBruno

If PC's latest patch notes are any indication, this still will not be getting fixed. This is an issue with gamepad in general, not just console version.

Yeah, when I saw the PC patch notes, I got super disappointed.

HugoG92 · October 2021

There's no fix listed on today's patch notes. RIP.

Avoranti · October 2021

I’ve only noticed this yesterday on Ps4NA. Unsheathing weapons and hitting the first skill in combat is really slow.

Someone mentioned above about rediscovery in Blackwood. That’s likely an unrelated issue but I had to rediscover wayshrines I already had unlocked in Blackwood across all 18 characters. Didn’t notice until after the Blackwood event started.

Ishtarknows · October 2021

This is still happening to me too Xbox 1x, EU server.

Any updates?

FOULMISCHIEF · November 2021

No mention of a fix in the update-32 PC patch notes.

Update, please? @ZOS_Adrikoth @ZOS_AntonioP @ZOS_BillE @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_KaiSchober

Aorys · March 2023

Today I got this annoying 1 second lag... and for me, It has to do with Keyboard login option. When I use the gamepad UI for login (KB login disabled), this happens. I hope it helps anyone

Greetings,

We have closed this topic as it was originally created in September 2021. In many cases, it's better to create a new thread on a topic that you want to discuss as opposed to bumping one that is rather old.

Thank you for your understanding.
