The Elder Scrolls Online Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MuerteRoxxie Roxxie Horror (@MuerteRoxxie) reported

    @TESOnline I'm more curious of when you're going to fix the issue of getting booted while doing alchemy. Error 307 everytime now.

  • FireStormFox1 Fire Storm Fox (@FireStormFox1) reported

    @bethesda On elder scrolls V Skyrim Why don't yall just add an option to remove the smoke from the loading screens That's the lagging cause and it's a pointless and mostly irrelevant thing to even have I'd rather just turn it off Fix your game #Fixit That's not much to ask.

  • Michael72199108 Xavier Ignacious (@Michael72199108) reported

    @TESOnline Be cool if gap closers weren't broken in IC.

  • theherbwitch Theherbwitch (@theherbwitch) reported

    @TESOnline Questlines are broken on the PTS, stopping replayability of the game -is this really a good thing to go live with?! (Hint: no) Whole AWA implementation is so badly done it’s almost breath-taking.

  • SMXshow Jammie Dodger - Currently playing Ratchet & Clank (@SMXshow) reported

    This culture of video game companies buying other companies is bad. I’ve got no issue with new IP’s being exclusive. But buying multi platform series’s and making them exclusive is bad for the industry. Elder Scrolls being the main one.

  • FireStormFox1 Fire Storm Fox (@FireStormFox1) reported

    @bethesda On elder scrolls V Skyrim Why don't talk just add an option to remove the smoke from the loading screens. That's the lagging cause and it's a pointless and mostly irrelevant thing to even have I'd rather just turn it off Fix your game #Fixit That's not much to ask.

  • AndrewPippiM8ie Andrew (@AndrewPippiM8ie) reported

    @KingRexy328 Maybe every IP should just be beholden to the Elder Scrolls and SCP system of lore, where everything is simultaneously canon and non-canon at the same time and you get to pick and choose what you think’s canon and not. It’s very chaotic but it does solve the problem

  • ItsNawch Nawch (@ItsNawch) reported

    I have no motivation to play CoD ranked with these aim assist issues. May just chalk vanguard for the year for me. Back to Cold War, Destiny 2, and Gonna start streaming OSRS when I play that too. Thinking about getting elder scrolls too. @owgesports_

  • jxccob101 jb1÷1 (@jxccob101) reported

    They need to make a new elder scrolls Skyrim is pissing me off the NPCs make you follow them and they move slow af then glitch out

  • QuakeNBake7 The Great Exposer (@QuakeNBake7) reported

    @MikeDaLGND By that logic Elder Scrolls and Fallout are more comparable to Minecraft than Crash and Tony Hawk are, they're massively bigger than any ActiBlizz franchise minus COD so why aren't they on other platforms? You're losing the argument badly dough boy, getting mad isn't helping you

  • jeffmangumstan rapthoughtworld drone 🦢 (@jeffmangumstan) reported

    @OwlexanderH The problem is Bethesda has been flopping with these games and the last good fallout/elder scrolls was like 7 years ago, along with that obsidian botched the outer worlds. So it could work out but so far it seems unlikely

  • notS0LUS Solus (@notS0LUS) reported

    @Mythrrinthael @BigFatWitchHat absolutely semi-unrelated but elder scrolls online's biggest problem with their "megaserver" system is that w/o dedicated containment servers, they just infest certain areas in game instead & you'll be wandering through a town for a quest & suddenly enter their chat proximity

  • MuerteRoxxie Roxxie Horror (@MuerteRoxxie) reported

    @TESOnline @Man_CaveGaming I'm having trouble with a particular toon. She was leveling alchemy and got booted..like a lot of other people still do. Now, she gets booted every 5 minutes...just her. The other toons are fine. HELP!

  • aroundofshe Hybrid Project Alpha (@aroundofshe) reported

    @9_volt_ yeah that's the problem with games like Elder Scrolls, it just devolves into following the compass to the next objective instead of organically exploring the world. From RPGs never hold your hand

  • daedalus4096 Michael Bunting (@daedalus4096) reported

    All I wanna do right now is play Elder Scrolls Online, but I can't. I've been getting consistently booted from the server within 30 minutes of login for the past 24 hours. Ugh.

  • nerevarising Red ☪️🕌 (@nerevarising) reported

    not to sound like a broken record but every single time I play a quest for this game I go "ELDER SCROLLS????"

  • SilverfusePlays Silverfuse (@SilverfusePlays) reported

    @Manittas_ @drlor4 Yea, I played The Elder Scrolls Legends competitively so I totally get where the competitive community is coming from. There is also a lot of copium from people who are having trouble reading the writing on the wall which makes them wonder why everyone else is being a downer

  • PeterKlock91 Peter Klock (@PeterKlock91) reported

    @jameswe81795877 @iamalitayyeb But a lot of people had mentioned the bugs but they just really don’t detract that much from the experience I guess. The next Elder Scrolls and Starfield will probably be filled with a number of issues like Bethesda games always have. Yet I bet they score well, too.

  • MuerteRoxxie Roxxie Horror (@MuerteRoxxie) reported

    @Man_CaveGaming @TESOnline I can go anywhere. None of my other 13 toons seem to be having any issues. Just her. Every 3-5 minutes I'm booted while playing her no matter what I'm doing.

  • Arby_Bergstyelz Low Earner (@Arby_Bergstyelz) reported

    @Susan1n_GDG @jaimieeb @LOTRonPrime I’m not as big into gaming as I once was, mostly just not enough ⏰ I prefer solo games - elder scrolls, red dead, grand theft 🚙 I have not played any Witcher games or cyberpunk, but want to Last I heard cyber77 crashed after launch, did they fix it? Worth a run through?

  • MuerteRoxxie Roxxie Horror (@MuerteRoxxie) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Could someone please help me? My new toon is getting booted every 1 to 5 minutes since last night. Error 307 for about 15 hours. Just that toon.

  • travish56435068 travis hurley (@travish56435068) reported

    @TESOnline Your support site won't let me log in to submit a ticket can't use xbox credentials to log in. Please advise me how to fix this

  • thomaswhushu LIVIDAMERICAN (@thomaswhushu) reported

    @TESOnline I'm still only a few months into the game I don't quite understand why achievements account wide is an issue, can someone explain?

  • zenilant Zenilant (@zenilant) reported

    @Skul_gun I'm just thinking back to Elder Scrolls where you could have an army of NPCs chase you across the entire world map. That to me is open world gameplay, just stupid broken hilarious ****

  • MuerteRoxxie Roxxie Horror (@MuerteRoxxie) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Could someone help me with eso? My new toon has been getting every 1 to 5 minutes for 15 HOURS. Error 307 constantly.

  • TheMeta__ TheMeta__ (@TheMeta__) reported

    @Shreeveera But how is it playing now? Genuinely curious if frames are an issue at all on either platform. I only have the PS5, but curious about both as I'll inevitably have to get an Xbox for Starfield and the next Elder Scrolls

  • someoneweirdr eathan (@someoneweirdr) reported

    @JahShmurda Halo Series, Crash series, Spyro series, Lot of Nintendo's stuff, older COD games, older Battlefields, Banjo Kazooie, Elder Scrolls, Star Wars games, Batman Arkham City

  • EtchedPixels Alan Cox (@EtchedPixels) reported

    @TESOnline I just hope to the gods it's not the buggy mess you have on the PTS at this point. PvP was laggy and broken, now trials are laggy and breaking, and the PTS achievements change causes a huge number of quest and background dialogue glitches

  • QuakeNBake7 The Great Exposer (@QuakeNBake7) reported

    @MikeDaLGND Best selling individual Crash game was the N'Sane trilogy that was a $40 game and sold 10M across 5 platforms Crash 4 full $60 game and didn't sell 1/2 of that Crash, Spyro and Tony Hawk combined aren't even on the same planet as Elder Scrolls Try harder double chin

  • Dskins207 skins207 (@Dskins207) reported

    @PatrickKaranje1 @Princess_R_B Skyrim is fantastic. Elder Scrolls 6 will be great. but the problem is it won't come until the end of the gen if that. this is a 2027 2028 game at best.
