The Elder Scrolls Online Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Seth Screams (@SethScreams) reported@Vara_Dark Gone will be the days when you can perform glitches by cleaning the cache to delete patches. I remember performing the cache cleaning glitch to get the Mace of Doom in Elder Scrolls: Oblivion for the Xbox 360. I personally only buy digital games, but killing physical media is stupid.
-
Vector (@PrasVector) reported@InternetH0F Finally. Been waiting forever for new Elder Scrolls news. Hope they actually deliver this time and don't rush it out broken.
-
Ya Boy JC (@JCalabration6) reported@PaulTassi Isn’t Halo now considered a live service franchise? Elder Scrolls 6 could be exclusive when it releases in 10 years though.
-
Steely Dad (@TheRealWes01) reported@JezCorden @JuiceHead33 Other platforms didn't buy the bulk of mid to top tier studies in less than 3 years. Exclusives are fine but when a mega corp buys 100 billion worth of studios it kinda creates an issue. If they keep the 4 tent pole, cool. They move Elder Scrolls...thats the ******* problem.
-
Benjamin Langner (@bglangner) reported@asobercannibal @LRSerling 💯 my issue. Not just this, but the writing in the game as a whole. Just felt like there was so much more that could have been explored but they either ran out of time or just weren't interested, which was shocking given how deep the elder scrolls lore goes
-
Big Yonk (@TheBiggestYonk) reported@Jetifyed2077 The problem is modern gaming development time being like 7+ years in some cases, and instead of literally just making a different studio, Bethesda would rather take 14+ years to create a new IP + a new Elder Scrolls game before doing the next Fallout. Skyrim was in 2011 lol
-
Jessica-Star ✨ (@SleepisforT) reported@Kylerm146110M @JuiceHead33 I don't imagine they will, live service and games with a long multi-platform legacy like Elder Scrolls and Fallout will likely stay multiplat But we will see, things have been changing quickly
-
Curse (@Cursemark143) reported@PaulTassi @mjHushpuppy Phil really dug a hole for Asha before he left. I wouldnt be surprised if Asha never wanted Halo, Forza 5 & 6, or Fable to come to the PS5. It was never her decision, but at the same time, if she takes them away she will face the backlash because they are already present in the PS Store. Blade will be a Console Exclusive, that much is kinda obvious. Sony has their super heroes and now XBOX has Blade, its only fitting. They said that Live service games will be multiplatform and everything else will be a "case by case" scenario.. this is why I believe that having The Elder Scrolls 6 on XBOX and PC alone, is probably a discussion being had... Now will that happen... Im leaning more towards "No". But if it happens, Im buying an XBOX. I have to play The Elder Scrolls 6 no matter what. I dont think its the platform, its the game. If The Elder Scrolls 6 isnt on Playstation, that wont stop me from getting it. To be honest, I would sell my Playstation to get an XBOX to play TES6 and I can still play GTA6 but not vice versa. And to me personally TES6 > GTA6.

Life and nature enjoyer 88 👌 (@1996I43994) reported@methylene666 @AntoniusOhii The problem is that the pagan mindset is retarded. There is one world and thus one creator. Paganism only works if you have an elder scrolls type of situation where there are multiple planes of existence each created by God. And even if that was so we only live in one
-
Pork (@formerlypork) reported@iJoyuh @Shin0a_ chill been schoolin and playing elder scrolls online for my pve fix while destiny 2 went down the pooper
-
Regalia Legends of Runeterra (@Regalia_LOR) reported@IGN Rushing The Elder Scrolls, Fallout, and Halo just to pad the balance sheet for a corporate spinoff is how you get unpolished, broken games at launch. If Asha Sharma forces these studios to sprint to the finish line, she’s going to permanently damage Xbox’s biggest IPs
-
coolster #DECOOUT (@ultralevixz1) reported@3aldes Yeah I want to be a dark elf in the elder scrolls universe I don't think that's an issue
-
Rizzi (@Rizzi208) reported@FlyBy1444 @TESOnline Im waiting for them to fix a bug I reported to play again, mainly because it really bothers me
-
G2ThaUNiT (@G2ThaUNiT) reported@HazzadorGamin I saw a post from George Broussard from 3D Realms/Apogee that layoffs at Zenimax have already started and that any studio not working on Elder Scrolls or Fallout are out. God I hope that's NOT true!!!
-
FlyBy14 (@FlyBy1444) reported@TESOnline Goodbye eso. Your community is toxic and you dont even fix the bugs you have in the game, you just keep adding more stuff with more bugs. Done with your bs and expensive crown store. Ugh GOODBYE. 🤮
-
The Crapgamer (@The_CrapGamer) reported@JPearson96 @VGC_News Live service is stuff like Elder Scrolls Online, Fallout 76, He didn't actually say multiplayer games, he strictly said live service games. Gears has multiplayer but isn't a service game, same with the next mainline Halo, it won't be on PS
-
Renlos Malik (@renlosmalik) reported@HannyahZ What classifies as old? Cyberpunk, Witcher, elder scrolls, god of war, fallout. I think what you mean to say is it doesn’t have online required games, shocker. Maybe that’s the issue in the first place.
-
Neon Bird Games (@NeonBirdGames) reported@GameOverThirty @HoegLaw Case in point: Elder Scrolls VI Most people are already jumping on the idea it’d fall under the “single player, therefore exclusive” idea, but Bethesda games are really more broad platforms themselves with mods and such like a “live service” would be
-
RJ Kelly (@rjkelly13) reportedI was thinking about this earlier. Bethesda was so enormous that they had their own stage show dropping games left and right. Now it's just live service Fallout 76 and Elder Scrolls Online and Doom stuff. What a dropoff.
-
JimRaven (@JimRaven93) reported@thegamersjoint The difference here is that Bethesda just doesn't have the passion they had back in Skyrim. The next elder scrolls will be full of controversies, least of all will be the bugs. KH4 might have a combat system controversy or a convoluted story issue but it will still be great.
-
Daniel Harman (@DanielTX51) reported@IsXBOXStillLast @M0NKEYCAN Maybe, maybe not. Imagine if, within a two-year window, the next Doom, Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Tony Hawk, Crash Bandicoot, The Evil Within, Dishonored, Wolfenstein, Killer Instinct, and Diablo all released but didn’t come to PlayStation—do you think that would have no impact?
-
James | Barbaric Throne (@barbaricthrone) reported@georgebsocial Might confirm rumors from yesterday claiming anyone not working on Fallout or Elder Scrolls is out.
-
Aarameshi Starwind (@Aarameshi) reported@TESOnline Yea but do you still make us respec on every login? Id be willing to comeback for this but im tired of having to respec all the time.
-
Cow_G (@CCowGG) reported@TESOnline Thanks a ton. There are two tickets involved, one submitted by me 260610-001774, and one submitted by my friend 260610-001873. Both tickets are concerning the same issue.
-
Vince (@ThatBoyVJ27) reported@DrFuryWolf @CultureCrave @theinformation I’m hoping it means they use one there 20+ studios to make games for each others ip’s. Why not have obsidian make a fallout, or inexile make an elder scrolls. Would be sick to see a doom from the coalition or even a halo, or ID making a cod, double fine a crash game, etc.
-
nobodyhere (@etherstorm80) reported@codman_cody @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Seems to be an xbox issue, downdetector shows
-
FineYoungGalahad (@Mason__666) reported@matt_gerken @JBishie @ballmatthew That's my point. They still had more focus on PS. 3 new announced games vs 2 for Xbox. If they really want to get back in the game, they need to make it all exclusive except for MP/Live service. Even the big stuff, Elder Scrolls and Fallout. Stuff that WILL sell hardware.
-
@dadgamer.bb (@blake_bean) reported@dtv20 @JezCorden Man, idk how many times I have to say it. Yes, all true but theyve only had all of these studios with all these IP for 2 years total..Your argument is invalid, we do not know what all of their IP now could do until the games actually come out. Like I said theyll eat **** for a few more years but people are not gonna just be like ehh I wont play Elder Scrolls, Doom, Wolfenstein, Fallout, Starcraft, Tony Hawk, Crash Bandicoot, Diablo, Overwatch, World of War craft Spyro, Forza, Halo, Gears of War, Guitar Hero, Call of Duty, Tony Hawk, and these are just the known IP they will and are making sequels too and not counting the original games we already know about Blade, Clockwork etc . So, the old argument of X Box can not do hardware is completely invalid until we see how these big acquisitions play out If theyre smart, they make all of that exclusive, and theyre consoles sell off the shelves.

Pigeon (@PigeonGoGaming) reported@KieranMegaPrime Reinvest in console. Start utilizing popular IP - Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Halo, Call of Duty etc. Put Obsidian on a Fallout side project (and make it Xbox / PC exclusive) Less expensive titles that the mass audience doesn't want like "South of Midnight". Start investing in China. A massive market they barely have presence in. Look at alternative ways to bring down console pricing, such as pivoting to more Chinese RAM (currently undergoing massive expansion) Launch that Chinese Game Pass tier. A tier for China audience which focuses on multiplayer shooters & RTS games. Use aggressive marketing techniques. No kumbaya. Sony managed to BOOST their PS4 by using marketing that specifically called out the issues with Xbox One. (This one is more tricky right now since Xbox still relys on PlayStation sales) Etc

BRAP (@BRAP_Podcast) reported@JamieOffline I'm not arguing that Minecraft, Call of Duty, Halo, and Elder Scrolls are identical products that should all follow the exact same distribution strategy. The issue is that Xbox has publicly tied its strategy to strengthening the value of Xbox hardware, validating long-term fan investment, and rebuilding platform identity. Those goals generally benefit from clarity and predictability. If exclusivity is determined on a "case by case basis", consumers are left wondering which games actually require an Xbox and which don't. That uncertainty can weaken the very hardware desirability Xbox says it wants to create. Sure, Microsoft's size, portfolio diversity, and ownership of multiple publishers explain why decisions may be made differently. But they don't necessarily explain how a case by case approach supports the stated goal of making Xbox hardware more compelling to consumers. So I think the question isn't whether Microsoft has reasons to evaluate games differently. The question is whether that approach aligns with the outcomes they're saying they want to achieve.
