Doomer Fuggs hier mit Klarname! (@nichtnoki) reported@RonnieBlaz3 @TESOnline I play currently on PC/EU and I played on Xbox/EU till 2019. PvP were always laggy. It was the worst in 2017! The problem was the netcode and not so much the servers. Servers became better though. Much less problems with connectivity and rarely lags in PvE raids and stuff. PvP still shity though bc, like I said, netcode! To much garbage requests vom the server leads to too much data that has to be handled. They should really redo that from scratch with a tighter code. So better no usage of AI bs. They will probably not do this o.o"

Ender Rising (@EnderRising) reported@Jugulator__95 @TagTrinity After reading Jez’s article it looks like game pass will become a build your own bundle service, before Elder Scrolls even launches. What that looks like pricing wise, day one games, I have no idea. Starfield would have sold 25 million to 30 million plus copies during launch week if it wasn’t on game pass and was on ps5 at launch. The hype for the game was insane.

ds 116r (@noant66777) reported@pizzamoney83 @VulpeculaLunae @TESOnline they have too much instance. that the problems. zenimax really overestimate the number of people who play that game. too many time i end up in a 12 player group where the half is in a different night market. we must scream to them to travel to us otherwise they can't find us lol

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.
-
hibernicus (@hibernicus_) reported@JezCorden Single player titles full exclusive PC/Xbox like Elder Scrolls 6. 'Live Service' titles like Forza Horizon multiplat Fable PS5 port needs cancelled. No 3P storefronts on Helix only Xbox PC, BattleNet, and console backwards compatibility. Helix needs subsidized to compete with PS6
-
Olgit (@PCG_Olgit) reported@TESOnline If Vengeance is your answer to the pvp issues that plague endgame, then do us all a favour please, Make it a separate entity and just leave what we have had - alone. If people want to play a slower game, non cp server - then let them. If they want Icereach - let them.

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?
-
Fabio D.H. (@TheSystem_0) reported@LeonardFrom719 @Burnvolver @humorMEplzz How old are you to talk like you are 5, do you speak to your father and mother that way? Don’t call her a *****? Grow up and stop insulting people just because you feel like it. There are many examples of utterly broken old games on release, like the old elder scrolls, dwarf fortress, super Mario for Nintendo 64, Spyro etc etc

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.
-
Żello1288 (@zello1288) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I bought the Starfield Premium Edition upgrade a while ago, but I still can't install the Terran Armada expansion. What's the problem? It's not included?
-
Valdenn (@sirvaldenn) reported@Swurv__ True enough about Crimson Desert. Elder Scrolls VI has a Bethesda problem, though. Yeah, it'll make money, but not as much as if it were good. Starfield suffered because people saw and said how abysmal it was. TES VI will have the same issue.
-
Big John (@judofright) reportedGeForce now is trash. Elder scrolls online keeps getting this weird bug. It's the wrong button binding and I can't fix it. Too many problems with these streaming services.
-
Stormermia (@StephenMcKellep) reported@TESOnline I would suggest for killing enemies in specific zones, please enable delves and public dungeons. This will prevent issues because over world mobs respawn so slowly and the campers are furious if anyone even looks at the mobs their camping.
-
Jakob Fel (@JakobFel) reported@RinoTheBouncer Not a problem since I'm basically the one person on the planet that's NOT hyped for GTA6. For me, Elder Scrolls 6 is the game I have the most hype for. It's my favorite game series and has been since Morrowind.
-
SronimirSroban (@SSroban37204) reported@Swurv__ The next elder scrolls game has a previous 4 bethesda games were complete utter ******* dogshit problem
-
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...

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.
-
ANW Pizza Parker🇹🇹 (@TheColtonShow__) reportedI don’t ever wanna hear about Elder Scrolls or Fallout jank ever again, them ****** taking advantage of the whimsy in yall heart to sell yall broken games
-
Necrotic ♡ Cooties (@NecroticCooties) reported"Elder Scrolls 6 has big competition-" "New game will destroy TES6-" "Fans of TES won't need TES6 with this new game-" No, the problem is that there is no replacement or competition for it. Do you think we are playing TES for its unrivaled quality?? No. We are mentally ill.
-
Muda (@eyemissxv) reported@younghavok Elder scrolls 6? Story mode overwatch game? Crash bandicoot? Spyro? Halo remake? Fallout 5? Fable? Souls like WoW? They didn’t even try
-
Immortan Joe Mazzulla (@normal_jake_) reported@AF17550 It had its issues and a lot of them were avoidable but as someone who plays a TON of space games I don’t think people gave them enough credit at all. It’s real ******* hard to do what they did lol. This isn’t like making an elder scrolls or fallout, it’s a big technical ask!
-
Pidgey (@JollyPidgey) reported@SMGold_ I love me some elder scrolls but everyone knows thats glitch of a game isnt the best game made. Now excuse me while I find the save state that doesn't have my character falling through the floor.
-
Gilbs (@GilbertoRondo16) reported@NikTek @CosmicMatt92 It would still be a huge problem having to load to enter every single house, dungeon, castle, whatever, this engine is abysmal dogshit, and they should have changed it after Skyrim, a have zero faith in the next Elder Scrolls game, unfortunatelly.
-
Bad Wolf Sultan MyWolverine❤️🔥MyPrincessPeach (@BadWolfSultan) reported@xonebros The only problem Bethesda has with Elder Scrolls VI is Bethesda, they are their own worst enemies
-
Silaf (@Asmoden3) reported@RyanStrifePlays @TESOnline Yes 2 team BG was a design error. 8 vs 8 was fun but all the others modes can disappear forever as an error.
-
HoD (@HoD_v1) reported@pizzamoney83 @TESOnline Where in night market you need to be elite player? :) difficulty there mid between vet dungeons and vet trials. Any average group can do this. There's zero new mechanics - a bit reworked old bosses, without any new mechanics. Problem there - excessive grind. It just boring.
-
MadmanMadoochiMoola (@MadoochiMoola) reported@Pirat_Nation There is a very clear expectation from 2 totally different TITANS of the gaming industry. On one hand, Elder Scrolls 6. and on the other, GTA 6 1 is going to literally shut down countries and cause economic issues when it releases. The other one is going to be a 7/10 on IGN
-
BattledadTV (@Sambei_Gaming) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline anyone else suddenly getting the 201 error?
-
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.

cp pc (@belgian123) reported@TESOnline Unplayable lag everyday and now you want to do crossplay haahahahaha
