The Elder Scrolls Online Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Soup (@The_Soupinator) reported@WinC_Gaming Yeah that's the big problem. Exclusives mean nothing unless they have must-have games (released regularly) to back that plan up. Halo hasn't been that for a LONG time and they're going to need more than just Elder Scrolls 6 which is still years off.
-
willow 🟥 (@wintersre9uiem) reported@reishiGrowth Again, they announced elder scrolls 6 in like. 2017 or something. Cyberpunk was announced in like 2014. (Actually... CDPR and Bethesda both seem to struggle with the same issue...)
-
Console Gamer (@ItchyButRash) reported@asha_shar Can you please have Bethesda fix Oblivion remastered across all platforms before the Elder Scrolls 6 comes out.
-
Karea Shaver (@ShaverKare94651) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I really hope you take a peek at my activity feed and take care of the bad actors. Enough is enough people are literally broken putting their heart and soul into something that's rigged by bad actors.
-
Bryan (@mononaut) reported@fentanylbrownie "ubiquitous" in elder scrolls games but never really seen it be such a problem anywhere else. Elder scrolls melee combat is remarkably unfun that bypassing it with sneak is the default way to enjoy the game.

🚩(Prebiotic Broth) (@NODs_Fanatic) reported@AlexMindTricks @nuhre_ It’s a generational game ppl have been waiting to play for 10+ years with ridiculous hype. It’s going to make like a billion dollars bro. That doesn’t mean the industry can pretend they have GTA 6, not even Bethesda could sell Elder scrolls 6 for that much. It’s capitalism bro, supply and demand, GTA 6 is gonna be a live service game that is extremely popular for the next 2 decades. That doesn’t mean game devs are gonna start selling the new call of duty for $100, almost nobody would buy that **** for $100, but millions of people would buy GTA 6 for $500, let alone $100. It’s a product which is highly desired and therefore worth a **** ton, that’s capitalism, otherwise they’d sell it for less
-
Cosmic #dothack (@CosmicGaming91) reported@BethesdaStudios this is why i stopped ******* with your **** bethesda. we mod the games (NOT USING YOUR ****** CREATION CLUB) to fix your trash fire. then once its good and fixed, you light it on fire again. worry about something you SHOULD be doing like idk the next elder scrolls?
-
Destiny 2 Funeral Atendee (@imStrawHatART) reportedElder scrolls 4 and 5 have been milked longer than the longest live service game you can think of this is unreal
-
GTJames (@GTJames4ATL) reported@XBOXTIMDOG Just take COD and Elder Scrolls of Playstation. Problem solved

Dinnu daniel (@daniel_adinnu) reported“No, the roadmap is unaffected.” That’s Bethesda’s entire response when asked whether The Elder Scrolls VI would be delayed by Xbox’s layoffs, four words delivered to a YouTuber after Microsoft cut 1,600 jobs immediately and marked another 1,600 for elimination over the next year. Here’s the sentence that complicates it. The Elder Scrolls Online, made by ZeniMax Online Studios, a sister team under the same publisher, lost over 200 employees in the same round of cuts. Their own public statement wasn’t reassurance. It was an admission: “roadmaps we previously shared will be shifting.” Same company, same week, same wave of layoffs, and the two teams gave opposite answers to the same question. That’s not necessarily a contradiction. The Elder Scrolls VI’s team may genuinely have been protected while a live-service team absorbing over a hundred lost staff clearly wasn’t. But it does mean “the roadmap is unaffected” isn’t a statement about Xbox’s restructuring. It’s a statement about one specific team’s staffing, issued at a moment when a studio one floor over was saying the opposite about theirs. Current and former staff have reportedly told IGN they expect delays, crunch, and heavier reliance on contractors unfamiliar with Bethesda’s internal tools regardless of what the official line says. Bethesda’s statement answers the question it was asked. It doesn’t answer the one everyone’s actually worried about.
-
Robert Gough (@SilentWraith87) reported@KeenEyeVP I mean it's the same as the Bethsda bugs. Elder Scrolls: Lol flying horse, typical Bethesda bug, they'll patch it. Witcher 3: Jesus christ CDPR you can't even keep your horse on the ground, broken garbage. Same bug, different studio, different reaction.
-
FatBluntSmokR (@FatBluntSmokR) reported@TESOnline Yall should really fix Cyrodill and Imperial City! There are some nerfs that are much needed, like the stamina/magica drain, make it fair again please! Can’t break free, roll dodge, or block… just stuck eating it… got the best gear build, it’s just the getting stuck thing.
-
Chel (@Genuine_Snap) reported@JBishie They need to fix that storefront before they expect pc players to use it. Even still, when games were exclusive to EGS, PC players would just skip them, saying “no steam no buy”. They may grab the latest Elder Scrolls, but most PC players will skip Xbox games if this is true.
-
Hiddenwings / wailingfoil476🇺🇸🇻🇦 (@Wailingfoil6742) reportedI am still killing those dark elves if anyone is wondering and not the cool Elder Scrolls ones they are based the evil sadists ones plus I am still killing those rats although Watermelon showed up and caused more problems by being Watermelon
-
NUKΞ (@NukeGold) reportedOne problem with games like GTA 6 and (I'm guessing) Elder Scrolls VI is that they took so long to make that the visuals are now outdated. Hopefully, they can integrate generative AI and salvage the presentation.
-
Phill (@dmnqwk) reported@VogueFGC Yup, they were good. Unfortunately with Strikes broken and the other bugs - on top of the bear changes - I'm debating re-installing Elder Scrolls. It's a bit silly how badly WoW does on patches isn't it.
-
FinalBoss.io (@FinalBoss_io) reportedNothing says “healthy industry” like an Elder Scrolls 6 demo under executive applause while a giant inflatable rat watches from outside. That rat is the more honest mascot. Xbox leadership gets the live playthrough, the talk about scale and story, the nice clean vision of the future. Outside, Bethesda workers are flying flags for people gutted by Microsoft’s 2026 layoffs and reminding everyone what that future is built on. This is the part the industry keeps trying to edit out: you do not get the prestige showcase without the labor, and you do not get to celebrate the craft while treating the people making it like a restructuring line item. The game isn’t the contradiction. The executive narrative is. If workers need an inflatable rat to make the real mood visible during your big fantasy RPG victory lap, the problem is not optics. It’s that the optics are accurate.

Michael 🏴 (@realMJWilson) reported@NobodyIsOurGuy I want an Elder Scrolls movie but my big problem would be with who would they cast for the Dragonborn and who's side would the Dragonborn be on in the civil war storyline? Also how would they be able to cover all the factions and dragon lore in a movie?
-
Lord Haelor (@Lord_Of_Shorvia) reported@Radish_Doctor This is why I will usurp Todd. I'll fix the Elder Scrolls, I'll fix Fallout. Make Bethesda Great Again #MBGA
-
Slade (@Slade_AF) reported@The_End_602 @valuetainment Lmfaooo, you're the clown, brother. All I own is PlayStations. I have a PS2, PS3, PS4, and PS5. I only own one Xbox, and that was a gift back in 2014. You're the problem with gamers nowadays; it's either one side or the other. Sony ****** up, and I will always call them out on their bullshit. Also, Asha is doing God's work on the Xbox side by whipping Bethesda into shape. Do you know how ******* long I've been waiting for a new Elder Scrolls game, let alone a Fallout 5 announcement? Hell yeah, she's doing better than Sony right now.

Rob Woger (@Hazzardousmat) reportedAnyone else keep getting error 307? Booted from server? @TESOnline
-
Nethi ܸ⩌⩊⩌ ܸ (@NethiVr) reported@CassieKittenVR Different tech at the time. Keep in mind that Bethesda is a bit like monster hunter with their engine. Each generation of games are working on the same system just modified to fix their current IP, which was ether Elder scrolls or Fallout. What a mess x3
-
KayBear (@Kaybearmomma) reported@WarHistoryBuff Its way over rated, it gets boring fast and it suffers from the fallout/elder scrolls you can do everything in one play through issue

Ümit ATASEVEN 🇹🇷 (@gececi53) reported@TESOnline Dear ZeniMax Online Studios / The Elder Scrolls® Online Support Team, I understood the temporary deactivation of my account to protect against potential theft. However, despite providing all the required documentation (invoices/purchase receipts, secret question answers, and my personal information) that unequivocally proves my legal ownership of the account, the lack of any concrete action taken for days has become unacceptable. While I respect your security protocols, the prolonged delay and lack of a satisfactory response, despite providing all necessary proof of ownership, is causing significant hardship. As a player and customer, the continued unjustified blocking of my access to my account completely contradicts your understanding of customer satisfaction and service quality. Now that my account has been secured and my ownership has been fully verified, there is no longer any valid excuse for this delay. My request is clear: I demand that the block on my account be removed IMMEDIATELY and that my access be restored immediately. Otherwise, I inform you that if my grievance continues, I will be forced to take the matter to the relevant customer rights bodies and high-level authorities. I also warn you that I expect my case to be urgently transferred to a senior support staff member and resolved within the day. I request that the necessary action be taken immediately.

Gordo Compu (@TrueGordoCompu) reported@Pirat_Nation I've been playing Skyrim with mods for years and it's amazing. Bethesda should have hired modders for The Elder Scrolls VI, probably going to be a piece of crap like Starfield that modders will have to fix.
-
MarvinHeemeyerthe2nd (@heemeyerthe2nd) reported@GHBSmith The problem with Starfield was it was so interior heavy that you had to go through 5 loading screens to get to where you wanted. An Elder Scrolls game wouldn’t necessarily have this issue.
-
Alvin Russell 𓆋 (@FearsomeLLC) reportedThe Elder Scrolls VI is going to be... big!? Wow! Whoa! I could not care less. Bethesda's obsession with scale over focus has been a problem since Oblivion, and it's only gotten substantially worse over time. "The game world is the size of a real country!" I don't care.
-
ZACK (@I_amZackk) reported@JMaine518 @JackmoveJohnny The problem with this is that all it takes is a few examples having success for it to be the norm. We saw this when $70 was introduced. There’s always going to be a game that someone is going to be willing to make an exception for. If it’s not GTA, it will be the next Elder Scrolls, Naughty Dog game or whatever.
-
Personalpussyfooting (@HammerMica9447) reported@EvilSupportMain Literally all mine know I want elder scrolls 6 so bad I'll fix the world and climate change as much as I individually can just to stay alive for es6
-
Ång 🇺🇸 (@fllady68) reported@TESOnline The lag in this game, especially now, is ridiculous.
