Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • _Golnor Golnor (@_Golnor) reported

    @JacobAdjani @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Maybe this helps you. I had the same problem and in the end let the program run on the loading screen for half an hour. Then got a message about a connection failure but after this it seems to work again.

  • HausmeisterinUK Heike Tanja (@HausmeisterinUK) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline well, mine hung itself up every time I started the game, then I tried that trouble shoot, you linked for steam users, now the launcher doesn't find the game and asks me to install it, which I just do now 😥

  • Noone8963 Elder Scrolls Online is the most toxic (@Noone8963) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Did you fix the fact that you ignore your own code of conduct?

  • kcpaynev1 Steve (@kcpaynev1) reported

    @FenwickArtPhoto @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline why do some players get added benefits of workbenches in their tents while others don't but we are paying for the same service?

  • wGamerman Lee (@wGamerman) reported

    @furious1238 @GodsPetDog @PSLifeStyle To be honest those aren’t really the issue anyway, they are new IPs. I don’t agree with taking sequels though, those two above, then it’s going to be Elder scrolls, fallout etc

  • Teflondragon1 DoomderXESO (@Teflondragon1) reported

    @TESOnline New servers cause the lag is killing the game

  • kcpaynev1 Steve (@kcpaynev1) reported

    @TESOnline @Xbox @PlayStation why do some players get added benefits of workbenches in their tents while others don't but we are paying for the same service?

  • BlazeOfAstora Blazé (@BlazeOfAstora) reported

    i rarely if ever check my hotmail account but i guess i had an old elder scrolls online account bound to it... Someone tried to login to that account (apparently) FIVE HUNDRED |500| TIMES?

  • tidaneil Mizukiri (@tidaneil) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Does Chinese Subtitles problem be fixed?

  • NachtkindFX David Birr (@NachtkindFX) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Getting Error 334 PC-EU

  • aljudanalrez Yetibacca PÉREZ (@aljudanalrez) reported

    @ColossusRhodes_ I apologize. I legit have trouble telling sarcasm apart from genuine, even more so at the internet. But that's like saying Star Wars and Star Trek are the same just because they both have Star in the title. Elder Scrolls is NOTHING like Elden Ring. But I reccomend Elden Ring

  • CGCentralHD98 CGCentral (@CGCentralHD98) reported

    @HookLineVG @XcloudTimdog So...2 games out of like **** know show many and doesn't apply to most studios? Lol how many cods have been exclusive? How many fallout? Evil within? Diablo? Crash? Overwatch? Elder scrolls?

  • JacobAdjani Jacob Adjani (@JacobAdjani) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I followed the steps you outlined, the issue persists, and now I get a canned email ticket response, the issue is closed. "Infuriation" doesn't even begin to cover the resulting emotion. The game worked perfectly not 10 hours ago, the only condition that changed was the patch.

  • ChristopWFisher Christopher Wayne Fisher @ChristopherWFisher@c.im (@ChristopWFisher) reported

    wow i managed to fix the networking issues surrounding elder scrolls online, in the canary builds! what i did was mess with the settings for my network diver and recompiled the driver with certain mode changes when it comes to stack size and temporary heap space

  • THAT_VOODOO_BOB VOODOO BOB (@THAT_VOODOO_BOB) reported

    @OrbitalShark @TheDivisionGame Yeah even Elder scrolls which is 10 years old is getting itself sorted... Hopefully we'll get Div3 and it will no longer be an issue

  • Trish0828 Trish0828 (@Trish0828) reported

    @TESOnline I do them every day. Then when I’ve saved up enough Master Writs to be worth the time and trouble and I have enough mats to do them, I GET BOOTED FROM SERVER WHEN I TURN THEM IN!!! 🤬🤬🤬

  • wGamerman Lee (@wGamerman) reported

    @HonorThyGamerz @JayDubcity16 And I think Xbox can compete now with what they have, they have more studios now than Sony and great IPs. Elder scrolls, Starfield, Fallout, Fable etc still to come. There’s no need to take more just for the sake of a rental service.

  • Teen_Cthulhu Teen Cthulhu🐙 (@Teen_Cthulhu) reported

    @TESOnline fix Tales of Tribute cause it keeps crashing. Tons are experiencing this, as it's been on the forums for about a year I won a game, then it just crashes, and I lose all of my xp, so I can't progress at all This is embarrassing

  • _Golnor Golnor (@_Golnor) reported

    @JacobAdjani @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Same problem here. I use steam and have characters on both servers and connected last to the EU one. Nothing happens and if I kill the game with the task manager the music does not go away.

  • EviMagi Evelyn (@EviMagi) reported

    @TESOnline @BethesdaSupport Is there an issue with the ESO verification system? I have been waiting for half an hour for the login code to be sent to my email.

  • Boracis Bryan Beacock (@Boracis) reported

    @TESOnline @Xbox @PlayStation So after i DL the patch I get stuck at the login screen. Ive waited 20 mins nothing happens. Seems others r having same issue. Anyone else?

  • talesfromthefox Tales From The Fox Hole (@talesfromthefox) reported

    @FenwickArtPhoto @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Same issue, can't get past intro logos, occasionally can get to login screen with new artwork then it boots me straight back to windows. Raised ticket so hopefully something fixes it. I really don't want to redownload the whole thing again, it took me days.....

  • Noone8963 Hans stutz (@Noone8963) reported

    @TESOnline How about you guys start actually enforcing your terms of service and make the game actually playable

  • DindraneErin Dindrane the Feral Spinster (@DindraneErin) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Having issues logging into the servers. Still.

  • SkiddOrange Pompompurin stan (@SkiddOrange) reported

    @TESOnline If you won’t do that, then maybe consider making crown gems earnable in other ways. It would be nice if login loyalty netted them, or if we could get them during special weekends or something. Just some thoughts. (3/2)

  • Subsonik_J Subsonik (@Subsonik_J) reported

    @PetrfydCadavr @JohnnyT68226509 @JayDubcity16 Of course Bethesda prefers working with MS. They release broken games with full mod tools so the modding community can fix their games and make em better. The only reason any Elder Scrolls game is still popular is due to PCs modding community, that's it.

  • Brayden9669 Brayden (@Brayden9669) reported

    @DMC_Ryan @HavokRose you mentioned Xbox needing a live service community type game like FFXIV but aren't Elder Scrolls Online and Fallout 76 just like that?

  • Tea_The_Khajiit tea the khajiit - STREAM ON MONDAY! 🍵 VTuber (@Tea_The_Khajiit) reported

    @elethea @TESOnline send a customer support ticket if you haven't! Keep poking them, I had trouble too.

  • FenwickArtPhoto Dan Fenwick (@FenwickArtPhoto) reported

    @TESOnline @Xbox @PlayStation I would love to. However, my game crashes out at the while it is trying to display Bethesda. I have tried all of the recommended troubleshooting options and opened ticket 230313-003021. My wife and I are both having identical problems on two separate PCs.

  • Austyn11294225 GHXST (@Austyn11294225) reported
