The Elder Scrolls Online Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • DavyRouet Davy Rouet (@DavyRouet) reported

    @TESOnline What is this "only Playstation issues" nonsense? When are you fixing the "can't see any adds/mechanics in Cloudrest and other trials" on xbox? Which have been an issue since the release of flames of ambition! STILL WAITING

  • AddictWythAPen Olivia ☂︎ 🐺 (@AddictWythAPen) reported

    @Batmanstinks_ @TESOnline Yeah. For everyone. Meaning we still lose out on 3 tickets and all those jubilee boxes, because Xbox and PC had no problems playing yesterday when we couldn’t get on for 24 hours. They didn’t do anything for the people who were actually affected by this.

  • Veerojr Ben Duran (@Veerojr) reported

    @BethesdaSupport Purchased Elder Scrolls Online via steam, after installing it, after attempting to login with account get an “internal error occurred contact support”. Put in a support ticket, it’s been over a day and a half now with no response. Feels bad :(

  • Batmanstinks_ making people angry (@Batmanstinks_) reported

    @AddictWythAPen @TESOnline And add the fact they didn’t fix anything!

  • FLMetalhead_II Florida Metalhead (@FLMetalhead_II) reported

    @TESOnline Will this become more of a regular issue now that Bethesda is owned by Microsoft? I have both systems and would move over to Xbox if you were able to port over all of my purchases/history/character/etc.

  • jamesmannering Xearojay (@jamesmannering) reported

    @AURlEL @TESOnline Ive been playin eso on ps4 since launch with minimal issues compared to that of red dead redemption 2 and no mans sky.

  • jennfern108 Jennifer Fernandez (@jennfern108) reported

    @almalexias @TESOnline I would bet real human money there is at least one dev there who knew something like this would happen bc of whatever deadline or crappy process and mgmt ignored them, and then when they’re scrambling to fix it mgmt can’t even be bothered to come up with a decent PR plan

  • PoofyHairGamer 𝘽𝙡𝙖𝙣𝙠 (Semi-Hiatus) (@PoofyHairGamer) reported

    @diiIuc_ @kkjopping @GenshinOOC There are portrayals of Native Americans like that, albeit they're mostly shown in this way. Take the wood elves from Elder Scrolls. They're much more interesting. I don't have a problem with the hillichurl thing, but it isn't nearly as well done or interesting.

  • Craig12050685 Craig (@Craig12050685) reported

    @TESOnline What’s the excuse for the previous two extended maintenance problems where you didn’t even give us a response? I’ve been waiting over two years for you to fix performance. I’m done.

  • Runwin999 Runwin (@Runwin999) reported

    @TheRyanGillam @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline They could at least give 100 crowns. It is not real digital money like everything they sell in that store. So, as a customer, I would like to be rewarded for the time that I am prevented from accessing the service.

  • no_retreatx xNoRetreatx (@no_retreatx) reported

    @lanceburnett @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Tell that BS to the PS4 players now getting another 2 day long maintenance outage. 🤡

  • ur_Shulgi ur_Shulgi (@ur_Shulgi) reported

    @TESOnline well done!! What will you be doing technically going forward, as this seems to be the 2nd long-term outage for the PS folks in as many weeks.

  • StealYourGhost StealYourGhost (@StealYourGhost) reported

    @TESOnline Great job! So, about transparency, what was the problem? Should be avoidable next time since it happened twice in a row.. over the period of a few weeks.

  • lostkimber Jeremy D (@lostkimber) reported

    @chrischaos666 @TESOnline very bad business model to prioritize any platform over another and issue with Sony or not could have been avoided by testing the build further before going live with a broken update TL DR zos dropped the ball

  • NikolasScratch Old Scratch (@NikolasScratch) reported

    @VampiricRoze @Indy_Mike26 @TESOnline She has a point. As much as I fear deprioritization of the PS platform due to the buyout you can't honestly sit there and pretend like technical problems don't happen. Servers crash, bugs pop up out of nowhere. That's the reality of live service games.

  • shoes_thunder Thunder-Shoes (@shoes_thunder) reported

    @TESOnline Personally, for the lost day of ESO plus I would like a crown crate but that's me, not the majority. How about you send them their missed daily rewards in the mail? Myself, idc about the login rewards. Again, not about me.

  • Batmanstinks_ making people angry (@Batmanstinks_) reported

    @TESOnline So what exactly did they fix?

  • blaxxabbath ⛧tu fui, ego eris⛧ (@blaxxabbath) reported

    @SleepyMia145 @shiginope the elder scrolls has a huge problem w this. besides the redguard who can b p stereotypical too, all european and white cultures r human or more humanesque. the orcs, dwarves, wood elves, dark elves, and argonians r obviously based off of poc cultures and do not resemble humans

  • Hookem311 Edub311 (@Hookem311) reported

    @TESOnline @BethesdaStudios @bethesda so, I'm appreciative that we can now play on our PS.... however are we going to have to deal with this lag? I hate that I'm having to pay for ESO and this lag sometimes is unbearable!!

  • OtterRuin Michael (@OtterRuin) reported

    @FLMetalhead_II @TESOnline What part of this issue denotes to you that microsoft's acquisition had anything to do with this?

  • aidenscott Aiden Scott (@aidenscott) reported from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

    @th3perfectflaw @TESOnline You don’t understand the mentality of wanting a large company to compensate its user base because of an error they have made? We all understand mistakes are made, and it’s great that they are addressing it, however they are doing the “least” they can do for their users.

  • RockabettyAZ ROCKABETTY CROCKER (@RockabettyAZ) reported

    @Odd_One_Out_Inc @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I’ve been back on eso a week on Xbox and I have all those same issues. I was told it’s been doing that for a month now. The bank freezing is driving me nuts

  • Odd_One_Out_Inc Odd One Out Inc. (@Odd_One_Out_Inc) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline And the bank/guild bank/coffer/chest/skinning fish freezes and item retrieval from mail errors and items disappearing between mail and inventory?

  • aidenscott Aiden Scott (@aidenscott) reported from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

    @th3perfectflaw @TESOnline If your internet company has an outage of several days, making it impossible to use the internet that you pay the company for, wouldn’t you expect that company to reimburse you?

  • Xanth719 Mark (@Xanth719) reported

    @jennfern108 @ferago42 @TESOnline Well good for you admitting that. Thebfirst step to recovery is admitting you have a problem.

  • jennfern108 Jennifer Fernandez (@jennfern108) reported

    @chrischaos666 @ferago42 @TESOnline The problem is the poor communication and customer service. This happened last week too and we had radio silence. Any other service I use would have at least apologized for the inconvenience the first time around. How is that PS fault?

  • jennfern108 Jennifer Fernandez (@jennfern108) reported

    @Xanth719 @ferago42 @TESOnline It would have cost them zero dollars to say “hey guys we’re really sorry, also we’re extending the event” when they realized they had a problem. Instead they waited 12hrs into the 2nd 12+hr maintenance. The poor communication is not Sony’s fault

  • AddictWythAPen Olivia ☂︎ 🐺 (@AddictWythAPen) reported

    @TESOnline Just so y’all are aware, by extending the event on all platforms, you are compensating everyone BUT those actually affected by the issue. So unless you give PS players (& ONLY PS players) the 3 tickets we missed and some complementary jubilee boxes, you aren’t helping us at all.

  • Lovechuffed lovelychuffed (@Lovechuffed) reported

    @darth_straw @TESOnline **** up ya wee ***** how aboot get a life and stop bitching at a company that make 100 times more that ye do why don’t you make a game with good graphics with no issue he bender

  • HisasheKubo Psych (@HisasheKubo) reported

    @TESOnline Anyone wanting compensation are sad people they are literally trying to make the game playable for you I mean if I were them I would just make it xbox and pc only I play on ps4 but obviously ps4 player can't respect what they are trying to do don't hate them for trying to fix it
