The Elder Scrolls Online Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Jared Shapiro (@GetFitWithJared) reported@Xbox_SUPERFAN The thing with COD versus other first party games is they have 3 studios working full speed to crank out a $400+ million AAA game annually. Halo isn't doing that. Elder Scrolls isn't doing that. Forza isn't doing that. Those games on Day 1 are are all big value adds for Game Pass. If they remove them, they're going to see massive churn. I'm assuming behind the scenes they either didn't see a big enough bump in subscribers for COD or they saw a lot of people sub for a month or two, only play COD, then bounce. If that's the case, and you have polls all over the internet saying drop COD and make it cheaper, then I could see the business sense there. It doesn't make sense to risk subs and cut other first party games from the service, but there's always a chance the economics change

NC (@rowdy_phantom) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline @BethesdaSupport, do you suppose it might be time to fix the All the Worlds a Stage bug in FO76?
-
Christina Sali (@MoonBeamFlare) reported@TESOnline Night market quest starter not in the store. The map is broken...can't back out of the zone to see the rest of the map. Everything is hitting way too hard. It's just trash content.
-
. (@Poopikinz) reported@TESOnline This is all great, but can you fix control layout B? You don't jump until you Release the thumbstick. Imagine if you didn't jump until you released the face button. It's awful and has been broken for years now.
-
Silaf (@Asmoden3) reported@TESOnline It's actually a good system but it can be improved. My feedback is to remove actions that require a daily login.
-
K' the Barbarian (@KtheBarbar46169) reported@JeffsawHomes @IGN All while removing CoD, the biggest game in the service, setting a 1 year window for it's release, which is pointless for a mostly online game that does yearly releases. This also sets a precedent for other large games to not be included Day 1. Elder Scrolls VI, Halo 7, E-Day?
-
Debbie Burrows (@DebbieBurrows11) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Can you investigate the ongoing issue with ESO+ not working properly for people to please? This has been an issue for some of us for a week
-
Lone Wolf, Totally Original (@LoneWol10175595) reported@HexTheCatMeow sly cooper crash bandicoot star fox rpgs with "furry" choices like elder scrolls, modded fallout, baldur's gate, world of warcraft ark SA has some decent furry PC replacers.
-
Ron Paul🇺🇲 (@alienteslax) reported@TESOnline It's laggy as it is most of the time you have to double tap for the abilities to work, sometimes triple tap and you wanna add a cross play? People are just gonna leave, I'm on console and every time I'm doing a trial or even a dungeon the lag is unreal. I'm on fiber btw.
-
Darellano (@Darellano344205) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Why have such a lengthy maintenance period when you still haven't banned the cheaters—the ones using hacks to glitch under the map to gain an unfair advantage in Cyrodiil? And what about the bots farming materials and experience points all across Tamriel?
-
♡Kara (@Hexodyte) reported@CodyCoo15122985 @Swurv__ Tainted grail is one thing but if you think that the witcher of all franchises satiates the fix left by the elder scrolls then I seriously can't fathom what you like about the games to begin with, they're literally polar opposites nothing alike in the slightest
-
𝓜𝓪𝓻𝓴 (@RoninTaizen) reportedBlame on Bethesda and their goddamn creation engine. I wouldn't be surprised if The Elder Scrolls VI is gonna have problems too and don't tell me it won't just because it's a ******* updated creation engine. Also, I really think Bethesda likes to **** on Playstation somehow.🤔
-
ShotYourEyeOut (@ShotYourEyeOut) reported@TESOnline I’ve done so many skirmishes and none are counting toward the quest. Fix your game please.
-
VAUGHN DOOM (@Captzeine) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Your game keeps kicking me out every couple of minutes, followed by countless login errors, me getting in again, followed by getting kickec out again, repeating ad nauseum. No, its not z connection issue on my end.

Xycofox (@xycofox) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Did you guys fix the issue where players ESO Plus subscriptions weren't getting activated?
-
Josh (@BigJK123123) reported@ZephhyLeo @CultClassicCage Yet the game still had plenty of bugs, glitches & issues, some of which were present in their 2002 Elder Scrolls game. "it was less glitchy than Fallout 4" It bloody should be, that game notoriously had performance issues, and technical flaws even found in the recent re-release.
-
Trevor Rieger (@trevorriegerxxx) reportedThe Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered from Bethesda Softworks still suffers from severe technical issues including persistent crashes and performance degradation over a year after its April 22, 2025 launch.
-
Atlas Air 🇦🇺 (@AtlasAirx) reported@MedeirosDa61624 @TESOnline Exactly, it’s your experience. Unfortunately it’s not everyone’s experience. It doesn’t take much to see all the forum, reddit, facebook posts and most importantly what you hear in your community. It’s a growing issue across servers but I’m sure some are worse than others.
-
Dasu: Monster Hunter, Nioh, Ninja Gaiden (@buddahmfjones) reported@jizzle701 I don't take no ***** seriously when they mention Elder scrolls bro them shits is boring as **** with trash combat that relieson the community to fix the game & create content. DD2 has it's flaws but I'd play that over any Bethesda game any day.
-
Prin Lowe (@prin_lowe) reported@Der_Kernel_ Pretty sure it's more cope that modders will fix whatever mess Bethesda shits out but modders never bothered with Bethesda's last slop release so I'm not sure why anyone is coping that they'll fix Elder Scrolls 6.
-
Thunder and Lightning ⛈️ (@standingwatch86) reported@ek2805 @TESOnline You literally get the points just for logging in every day, and then you spend them on the same types of things you would've gotten from login rewards.
-
SenjutsuSage (@Senninsage) reported@Johnnymetal80 @Septic_Sauce The anticipation for the follow-up to Skyrim is a money maker approaching GTA. A lot more upfront sales will be lost with Elder Scrolls 6, so with this move I no longer have confidence in Game Pass as a service. It was about guarantees, no doubt, and that's now gone.
-
SenjutsuSage (@Senninsage) reportedYes, Elder Scrolls 6 with no guaranteed release date or anything, or even a guarantee we see it in the next 5 years. The belief alone that it would launch day one on Game Pass made me value the service enough to continue paying for it every year until it appeared.
-
Hvisla (@hvisla23) reported@BilyJesusworth @Melee1988 @TESOnline You have to click on the completed reward. Didn’t think mine worked either, just click on the completed daily login and you’ll get the points.
-
⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️ (@VanillaCyclone) reported@TESOnline I feel like crossplay is a waste of time it’s just gonna cause more issues for the devs
-
Chris W (@Chris_GWW) reported@Swurv__ Crimson Desert isn't an Elder Scrolls killer but it's showing us what could... People say Skyrim holds up but I can't play it again without a few thousand mods, Lorerim/Nolvus completely revamp the game to a modern standard and I can't go back to vanilla. I enjoyed it in it's time but it's dead for anyone that's already been there done that... let's be honest. Bethesda has nothing to worry about on sales and player numbers on release day but they should be worried about retention. I can't play Starfield it's the same old jank it just looks a little better but in a few years once Bethesda tosses it aside and modders do their magic I'll probably put a thousand hours more on it. I'll pre order it the morning of release and wait a couple weeks before the refund deadline to play it, see if Bethesda has improved or not because I can't do another plain three slash bethesda game, I just can't it's 30 years old. It took them until starfield just to figure out ladders... LADDERS meanwhile FO4 modders made functional ladders in their engine they said couldn't do it lol that should be telling us something. The lore will save it, the lore is what most of us care about, we live with the bethesda jank but we shouldn't have to. They also forced their lore writer out, that's a problem...

R̺͆o̺͆n̺͆n̺͆i̺͆e̺͆B̺͆l̺͆a̺͆z̺͆3̺͆ (@RonnieBlaz3) reported@TESOnline Before adding “CrossPlay” FIX the SERVER! It literally cant handle the current population, yet ZoS wants to add more content /players to a Unstable server that has been broken for yrs on PC. from what i hear on consoles as well. All we want are stable/reliabe Server ZoS!!!

ShadowMosesLikes🎮🎧💿🏢💿 (@MosesGames) reported@TESOnline So I can play the Night Market on a different character but can’t start the main quest with the curator on it? Please fix this.

Noir 浮世 (@madcap412) reportedXbox failure as a console is unforgivable You had Xbox (Halo, Gears, Fable, Forza, Psychonauts, Killer Instinct, Banjo, Conker, etc) + Bethesda (Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Dishonored, Wolfenstein, Doom) + Activision (Call of Duty, Crash, Spyro) + Blizzard (Overwatch, StarCraft, WarCraft, Diablo) = and still produce the worst console of this gen...so unsuccessful you went full third-party publisher....and are STILL a horrible multiplat publisher Xbox has been an experiment proving that Microsoft is unfit for gaming They need to sell their IP's to more worthy companies and **** gaming
