Who else's pvp abilities have started to work poorly and need to be pressed several times so that they work normally?

    The quality of performance in Cyrodiil has been declining since the new servers were installed. They've done nothing except radically lower the population cap over time and half the group size, and still performance is very not good.

    I don't understand, what's the problem here?
    It has always been that way.

    its gotten worse this patch, last patch it was there but not crazy often (at least for me), but this patch has been a much more common occurrence.

    Day 1 after the new servers were installed was the best the PvP servers had been since the game released. It has been getting progressively worse over time, so I suspect that they are increasing loading on these servers somehow which causes the problems in PvP.

    Probably testing the new MMO they are developing.
    Considering number of players has dwindled there is no other explanation on increased server stress.

    There is a known input issue that is being investigated for controllers. If you are on mouse and keyboard, it likely isn't related, but all controller users have been reporting delayed input times since the patch.

    Same...however my experience has also been in a solo Vatreshans FWIW....seems like more than just PvP.

    I'd rather there wasn't even a controller option. Put everyone on the same playing field and only offer a keyboard/mouse option would be best IMO.

    And don't even get me started on how much the PC game has suffered due to supporting game boxes. :s

    It wouldn't surprise me a bit if ZOS has robbed more server resources from Cyrodiil either. That's what they've been doing for over 5 years now. That's why the pop cap is so low and getting reduced further regularly and group size was cut in half. It's a very sorry state of affairs how badly ZOS treats the PvP community.

    No. I want to play while lying on my divan in front of tv and a table of coffee and beer. I dont even sit unless in combat.


    Keyboard mouse monitor is for work!

    This has been a constant problem since Vateshran came out. Let me guess, your heals will not fire unless you mash the button 2-3 times. And when you get to the minotaur, your skills almost disappear altogether.

    I've seen a few issues on PC and personally I feel like it's targeted abilities being impacted by position desync. I also feel like I've seen some health desyncs at times. Hard to determine for sure as there is a possibility my eyes are just not seeing things, although I've been making extra effort to make sure I'm paying attention.

    Whatever it is, I know it was bas enough I tested another mouse in game and both outside of game and they both worked outside of game, and back bar same button was fine, but not fine front bar

    And the worst thing is that it will not be fixed, a week has passed and the ability management is very disgusting and does not want to work, which causes discomfort and discourages the desire to play this game

    probably everyone using a ps4 controller on pc who is using ds4windows? since they added support for ds4 natively in the game if you use ds4windows it will cause all kinds of hiccups.

    I think the official term for what ZOS is letting happen to Cyrodiil is entropy.

    I've noticed this as well as sometimes being immobilized / locked in place while a skill is going off. For example sometimes I cast Concealed Weapon and my character can't move until after the animation is done.
