The Elder Scrolls Online Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
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
-
Gameplayerin (@Gameplayerin) reported@TESOnline When du you fix the bug that no one is allowed to go through the gate in first quest of the New Thievesguild???
-
Dova Dork (@DorkDova) reported@PatManJones62 @JezCorden Mate it means nothing to me anyways I own both but the issue is sales. If they want to actually make money maybe they should release on all platforms I'm adamant they should of brought spiderman to Xbox as well I'm saying elder scrolls deserves better treatment
-
Alaska Gnome I SUPPORT Israel (@Gnomiss) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline trying to return after several years... I can log in to the web sight.. but log in to the game fails with an error 201.. do i have to re subscribe to log in?????
-
FinalBoss.io (@FinalBoss_io) reported440 unionized Bethesda and ZeniMax workers laid off. Now the people making The Elder Scrolls 6 are warning about delays, crunch, and QA hotfixes before the game even has a public roadmap. That’s not “production is hard.” That’s management deciding the people who ship the game are the part it can absorb. If your workers need a march to tell you the schedule is broken, the schedule was never real.

xbotjimmy (@Killanitis) reportedOutside of Live service games like elder scrolls online fallout 76 and blizzards live service games everything else should be exclusive
-
Splat (@Splat_86) reported@denkatabro @AION2Official I really don't understand how people can say that live service is a dead end, it's still very much alive. I love single player games, played some like the Witcher games, Fallout series, Elder Scrolls, Deus Ex, Arx Fatalis etc but saying that live service is dead is very asinine
-
Vex (@TheDarthVex) reported@CTPhipps1980 @RazorFist No one’s saying every programmer or artist decided to delay Elder Scrolls VI, but the issue is that Bethesda expanded its workforce while its output and quality took a nose dive the last 15+ years. Layoffs are a consequence of the studio’s overall severe lack of performance.

𝔊𝔯𝔦𝔪𝔣𝔢𝔩 (@GrimfelOfficial) reported@abandonedmuse I think it just runs at a lower rate as I didn't max out usage Build an explorable 3D RPG world in Three.js based on the attached image. It has to feel like Elder Scrolls daggerfall in feel, FPS RPG, with collision detection, no clipping or defects on geometry, AAA visuals with HDR lighting and shadow shaders, target 60fps, split all the work into sub agents like terrain, props/geometry, materials/textures, lighting, physics, controls/camera, performance. Assign one sub-agent per stream. Each sub-agent owns its stream end to end and reports what it built plus what is still weak. Integrate, then run a review pass: walk the world, list every visible defect, fix them. Repeat till you get it perfect
-
Jean-Clawed (@dropandrot) reported@Pirat_Nation Why a company that is obsessed with cramming live service crap into everything hasn't thought to use the DA world building to make it a MMORPG, and milk it like Microsoft has done with Elder Scrolls Online, is a mystery.
-
muskett (@_Muskett_) reported@TJ_B_6 @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I deleted and reinstalled, I've been able to login as normal. If you're having issues you could fill out the issue/bug form... can't remember what it called.
-
Deadman Vazquez (@Arghdeaded) reported@DAKKADAKKA1 Not even modders are going to be able to fix the next Elder Scrolls, they'll be lucky if it even boots up 💀
-
Luminous Beings are We… (@Lordofsparta) reported@TESOnline Fix your broken game before trying to sell me anything
-
Kosumo (@Real_kosumo_) reported@nuhre_ I REALY want an Elder Scrolls 6. But from Bethesda as it was 10+ years ago, not Bethesda of today. I honestly want them to crash and burn before they make a 6th and ruin it like I know they will. They were my favorite, and they have lost favor.
-
KhajiitCook (@Lgbt_Cherry) reported@Mark97009631616 @TESOnline Code needs to be consistent and work well a small error in it can cause alot of bugs from other lines of the code and they have to qa check everything and they got way less quality assurance team. So that's two bottlenecks.
-
Cero, Kitsune Worshipper (@CeroMofu) reportedThe only "Delay" for this game is that they're not working on it in the first place. It's never coming out lol, Elder Scrolls 6 flat out doesn't exist
-
AFCjel (@MrDrProf2) reported@BethesdaStudios As a die-gard Elder Scrolls fan and a huge Fallout fan, this all sounds dreamy, fine and dandy. Issue is when this all is coming out. I am also worried about the quality of the games, but more about release dates. We dob't expect an exact date, but at least an approximate year/s.
-
Tim Morris (@TCM9555) reported@hard8_times Halo. Gears. Forza. Call Of Duty. Fallout. Elder Scrolls. Starfield. Doom. Quake. Wolfenstein. Sea Of Thieves. Spyro. Crash Bandicoot. Dishonoured. Diablo. Flight Simulator. Indiana Jones. Blade. Age Of Empires. Minecraft. You missed a few out...
-
Kayleigh Welborn (@WelbornKayleigh) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline game patch updated on ps5 and now i can’t get in the game saying “patch required please download and install” the patch is updated and won’t let me in, other guildies in discord having same problem
-
Ryan (@Triicksster) reportedSo Elder Scrolls 6 is probably taking another 2-3 years minimum, but really I just need Bethesda to get their **** together on optimizing their games' performance. Starfield and especially the Oblivion remake has MASSIVE performance issues, and Bethesda won't even acknowledge it
-
Jamie (@JPearson96) reportedThis is Gears, this will be Fabel if the next one isn't well received, this is Dragon Age, this will be Fallout and Elder Scrolls if Bethesda don't fix up.
-
St. Michael (@StMichael93) reportedAfter years of delivering nothing on Fallout and Elder Scrolls (Dear Todd, ESO and Fallout 76 are live service games, for an entirely different fanbase) Microsoft finally pulled the rug on Bethesda and gave their IP to Obsidian again to remake Fallout New Vegas
-
andy (@andymke) reported@a_space_alien @JuiceHead33 Yes the long term employees can help develop new talent, but they're also the least likely to want to try something new the "We've always done it this way" mind set is powerful in long time workers "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" you might say, but 15 years and counting for a new Elder Scrolls game shows that something at Bethesda is broken and needs to be fixed.
-
Luminous Beings are We… (@Lordofsparta) reported@TESOnline How about fixing the exploits and glitches ruining PvP? You are losing players. I know it’s an old game but you still want your money every month on time. It’s impossible to fight a group of cheaters using the armory glitch to acquire every mundus stone in the game. Shame
-
Phiophill (@Phiophills) reported@neontaster Again the problem of their bad management probably still exists. Wanting Elder Scrolls, Fallout, ect games out quicker does not make them come out quicker if management is still bad.
-
DS. (@Kreitoc) reported@TESOnline And the game is broken yet again.
-
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.
-
Patrik Severin (@PatrikSeve) reported@WrightRight4 @JMako67 @VALC_6 Heck there is even code in Source from the original Quake Engine. It is more a developer thing to improve things. One aspect I hope they fix is faces in the new Elder Scrolls, properly animated with better eyes and such. All that is possible if they want to.
-
Sleeper (@HellSnowshovel) reported@JohnH0730 @dennistopia @thiccdotexe Ah the old appeal to majority comment. Millions of people believe fairies are real. See what Im getting at? The elder scrolls games have become quite shallow with every version that is a problem.
-
Robert Gough (@SilentWraith87) reported@HazzadorGamin However in between Fallout 3 and Fallout 4, they also released Skyrim....uh the original Skyrim, not one of the many re-releases that is. Now they don't do that. So the problem isn't necessarily the dev time of Elder Scrolls 6 and how long it's taking it's they released that
