Cyrodiil is still the same as you know it. [PING]

PathosDante · January 12

Lately, especially in the evenings and at night, my ping has been between 160-300, and for the last two days I've quit the game just because of it. Is this a problem specific to me, or is it happening to everyone?

It probably depends on time zone, but not uncommon during primetime trifaction stacking. Sometimes I just disconnect and or time warp.

I thought it had been fixed. But it doesn't seem to be the case.

I'd be happy with those numbers any day. Try playing from Japan or Australia some time and see what your latency is.

This game is the best I've ever seen for playing at high ping. You don't teleport or rubber band, and all of your skills go off.

The only time I have issues as a 250 ping player is when the server is at its knees, but at that point the ping doesn't matter everyone is suffering.

Perhaps you're comparing this to other MMOs, and in that case I can't refute it.

If you expand this scope to any real time action game, the deterioration in ESO's combat in high server load situations is some of the worst I've ever experienced compared to playing games like Overwatch 2, Mechwarrior Online, Battlebit Remastered and Space Marines 2 while connecting to servers hosted across an entire ocean in Asia or Europe. I'm not able to express on the forum how terrible it feels to play ESO on the same continent at ~160 ms, not able to reliably cast a skill every second when there's more than 10 people logged in vs playing those other games with people on the opposite side of the globe at 200+ ms and being able to react in time to almost everything.
