The Elder Scrolls Online Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • helloteka Teka Nogueira (@helloteka) reported

    @TESOnline What about to stop ruining the game with bugs every time you try to fix other bugs? Or listen to the players and make sure to do really interesting contents?

  • Kingdavid4141 Kingdavid414 (@Kingdavid4141) reported

    @Beta4008 @ProjectXbox17 @PeterOvo5 The point is it’ll be in there subscription service like gamepass.. it’s no benefit to Microsoft at that point. It really gives u no reason to choose a xbox over a ps. Unless u need to play halo, gears, forza and elder scrolls.. but gamers are looking for new experiences

  • Darth_Brom Darth_Brom (@Darth_Brom) reported

    @TESOnline Another big year of bugs and stuff we didn't ask for (ToT), plus broken mechanics, and let's not forget about the PvP servers still being trash. Why don't you guys listen to your customers like Final Fantasy 14?

  • xietra Milan (@xietra) reported

    @TESOnline tldr : - new dungeons Q1, 1st chapter of a new multi-year story in Q2 with a new class probably - fixing EU server issues delayed to Q2 - wanting to work on existing systems but no mention of PVP, c*r*dil or endgame - not adressing crates and predatory crown store practices

  • bigtechsux Bigtechsux (@bigtechsux) reported

    @TESOnline thank you for finally trying to fix ESO in 2023. Now get rid of update 35 and 36 dev teams fire @GinaLBruno and @SlashLurk...all hot trash

  • jesmar1 jesmar (@jesmar1) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I had the same issue, it seems to be resolved now? I was finally able to login

  • shadowthewolf78 David phipps (@shadowthewolf78) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I have been having problems trying to connect to the Bethesda servers when trying to get in the mod section no matter what I so it will not connect I need this issue fixed

  • Allan36429099 Allan (@Allan36429099) reported

    @TESOnline Can we not do data centre as planned should be finished end February beginning of March 2023 then fix bugs rather than leave fixing bugs in Q3 2023 that's like a year away almost!

  • NickFirzen NickFirzen (@NickFirzen) reported

    @EtchedPixels @Dreno_87 @TESOnline I actually liked the way before One Tamriel... They could bring that back as a world tier difficulty toggle setting like Outriders or Division have. Their auto level scaler would scale anyways somehow, point is they not necesearry need to get on it from zero. It's a huge problem.

  • ur_Shulgi ur_Shulgi (@ur_Shulgi) reported

    @TESOnline Speak about community but 2022 demonstrated that the community you are most focused on is the rock stars who you pay to make music and all. Otherwise its broken & empty promises. Sad Matt closes with "community" when it hasn't been a focus in 2022.

  • MrsGeekyLatina Mystic Geek (@MrsGeekyLatina) reported

    @xboxandps4fan @CrazyAlien40 @Colteastwood The problem is Sony fans argue that Sony buys studios they have a relationship with. Microsoft did this with Bethesda who's first games of Elder Scrolls and Fallout were exclusive to Microsoft before they were imported to consoles.

  • frpaul1 Bicycle Seen 💉+ (@frpaul1) reported

    @graymalk I am looking forward to whenever The Elder Scrolls VI comes out. Skyrim was released 11 years ago. It's still 2-3 years away at the earliest. Then a year to fix a bunch of bugs at release time.

  • Viceroy_12 Viceroy (@Viceroy_12) reported

    @EIREGAMER Than you better start saving up for a Series S, because none of the games you listed are coming out anytime soon. And the new Crash game is already confirmed multiplat. My guess is you probably have 4 years before the next Elder Scrolls, and 8 years before the next Fallout

  • Ratburn2 Ratburn (@Ratburn2) reported

    @ZullieTheWitch That's really dumb if people are saying that, it's like if they had a problem with people doing Elder Scrolls/ Fallout content

  • Astoa69 Astoa (@Astoa69) reported

    @MellowedPanda @TESOnline U are the problem with most mmos that have pvp elements.. a pve player that thinks Pvp players getting forced to brainless pve content that does not need any skill to complete is a good thing! And cries everytime u have to go into pvp and actually face skilled players..

  • AndyK_1878 Andy Knowles (@AndyK_1878) reported

    @Bethesda_UK When the tweets are as broken as the promises for a release date for the next proper Elder Scrolls

  • ChrisKernachan 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Christopher Kernachan🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@ChrisKernachan) reported

    @DRaGoN_KoBRa @TESOnline They said after the last PvP testing that it’s going to take a long time to fix as they’re basically having to re-write PvP from scratch. This is on top of the hardware upgrades to help with performance. Don’t expect anything until at least early 2024.

  • xPhantom86 Justin (@xPhantom86) reported

    @TESOnline Every patch has too many bugs and issues. Your 2023 QoL update will likely break more things than it fixes, which then won’t be *attempted* to fix for another month. But god forbid the crown store doesn’t work and suddenly we have overnight maintenance.

  • DojimaHedgehog Fox of Dojima ☭ (@DojimaHedgehog) reported

    @meka_goji @RoseKellyCat Example: Fallout 76 or Elder Scrolls online (I think they’re not live service atleast)

  • Sadgemus ✨Sadgemus✨ (@Sadgemus) reported

    @Plaga_Mom I struggle so much to keep my elder scrolls obsession alive!! I constantly switch from fixations.. it’s a real problem

  • wolfKnightXD1 wolfknightxd1 (@wolfKnightXD1) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Can not connect to eso na servers on pc and i have no internet issues

  • MidnightWolf_12 Gabe (@MidnightWolf_12) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @IanSomniac What makes you think they will fix any bugs that is not behind a pay wall?!?!? Cuz they sure don’t give a crap about player in @TESOnline we have been playing with a block bug for a month for them to only break even more. And won’t fix it until the 19th

  • kim_ikazi ᛕคกɗٱ ᛕคץกﻉ (@kim_ikazi) reported

    @TESOnline tbh all I'm concerned about rn is the state of PvP on EU servers .. EU totally neglected .. Cyro is almost unplayable ... takes me 10 seconds to call my mount and I'm not even going into skills not triggering! Ball groups also causing major lag .. needs to be urgently addressed

  • Judicio03472846 fox (@Judicio03472846) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline My fallout 4 is having problems with it saying my creation club isn’t linked to my Xbox account

  • GentlemanJunkie Gentleman Junkie (@GentlemanJunkie) reported

    @TESOnline There’s only 10 or so out of 400+ that still play the game. Most of them left because they couldn’t handle the blue screens, the lag, the obviously cheating players, patch fatigue, and the lame *** ball groups.

  • OuterSpaceBro24 Outer space bro (@OuterSpaceBro24) reported

    @twinsguy09 @xMBGx List of 3rd party IPs that already came out when Xbox bought their publishers/studios: Call of duty crash Spyro Diablo overwatch WoW Elder scrolls Fallout Evil within Wolfenstein Doom Prey Dishonored Outer worlds Hell blade Minecraft And more I’m probably forgetting.

  • foxygames_uk FGUK (@foxygames_uk) reported

    Just with 2 publishers #Xbox will have taken 15+ IP's away from #PlayStation users, indefinitely. Elder Scrolls, Starfield, Doom, Wolfen, Fallout, COD, Crash, Diablo etc. We are to believe #Sony bags all the exclusives and MSFT just wants more people to access games?! Right.

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline My fallout 4 is having problems with the creation club saying my account is linked to my Xbox

  • 1legbandito Zach (@1legbandito) reported

    @HiddenXperia I honestly wouldn't hold your breath. Maybe I'm just jaded by games as of late but I assume it's not going to be playable and broken for the first 6 months of its life. 🙄 Especially since they're also currently working on Elder Scrolls 6
