The Elder Scrolls Online Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
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.
-
Knight(Fate)1029384756 (@Knight10293847) reported@masmorragamer That would be an issue if the game was trying to be Elder Scrolls. Luckily it isn't.
-
Clark (@Helix_3J) reported@SpawnYaardReply @Higgs_GG Other games do this too. It’s not a Ubisoft problem. If you wanna blame someone, blame that damn elder scrolls horse armor.
-
The It Factor 💫 MMA Betting (@TheItFactorMMA) reported@kidthewiiz @NikTek Is there no way to middle ground it for something like Elder Scrolls 6 to fix their city population issues that people complained about in Skyrim? Have your run of the mi interactable NPC count and backfill with these shallow NPCs?
-
𝔊𝔯𝔦𝔪𝔣𝔢𝔩 (@GrimfelOfficial) reported@FussyPastor Prompt was iterated on: 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

NaToonses (@Toonses7) reported@michaelamule @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Especially when the message doesn't state what day or what version is the problem!
-
Caius Hawthorne (@TJ_B_6) reported@TESOnline I downloaded a patch on 13 July, game won’t let me sign in. Deleted game from my PS5, reinstalled, still won’t let me log in. What do I need to do? I saw some comments about deleting saved data but too scared I’ll lose all progress and ££££ I’ve spent.
-
Kain_N_ (@KainN05032201) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline why do you not TEST how a patch will work on all platforms? Im sure out of the 67 people that still work there yall got every platform. i spent money on ESO+ TODAY and i cant even log in. an yeah, i uninstalled and reinstalled the game didnt fix anything. been here since beta
-
Jared Shapiro (@GetFitWithJared) reported@Aurelian_27 @danno_omen Well if they start holding back Day 1 games they're going to have a big subscriber drop off. CoD makes sense, it's the biggest selling game every year and is stupid expensive to produce. Removing it and lowering the price $7 was a decent trade off, but if you start removing Halo, Gears, Elder Scrolls or Fallout you're going to have backlash. Think of it this way, for every 10 subscribers that keep Game Pass Ultimate over Premium for a month, they get the same revenue as 1 sale. It's easier to sell a $23 sub than a $70 game but then if those users stay on the service, Microsoft gets that money every month no matter what other game they put out.
-
God Emperor SofaKing (@clevercolt64) reportedThis is the ******* problem with fans, constantly defending devs. Literally if this dumbass would’ve actually read the message that Bethesda put out They didn’t even start production on fallout 5 and this ************ is wondering why people are getting fired they’re getting fired because they’re not ******* doing what people want them to do. They’re not making games people want. We’re literally 15+ years on waiting on a new elder scrolls, title and some of us will be ******* dead before we even play fallout five
-
Robert Gough (@SilentWraith87) reported@blacklodgegames @silderfoe Bethesda did that made a boat load of Elder Scrolls and Fallout games, took that money and made a new IP in Starfield, granted it wasn't necessarily a new success but they did it. The problem they have now is not just cost of the games but more importantly the time it takes them
-
I'm Bored With You (@tbake42) reportedIm holding out hope for fallout, elder scrolls, and even a potential future starfield. If not, then I have no problem booting up old saves on either.
-
Sam Hawkes (@Hawkes1986) reported@CultureCrave Released Skyrim in 2011, took unit 2018 to even announce elder scrolls 6..... And we're now in 2026. Honestly, I couldn't give a **** about es6 at this point. Your focus now is live service, passion for elder scrolls lost and more money live service won. Stick it up your arse.
-
Damian Bentley (@Domino2097) reported@GenePark Nope Elder Scrolls was a pc born series and after playing Oblivion on PS3 I refuse to play any other on console cause at least I can fix the bugs on PC
-
J (@J_Centrist) reportedI mean lets be real. Elder Scrolls 6 is gonna probably suck ***. Bathesda hasnt had a good track record for a while. Do we need another full price game that modders need to fix?
-
Bird (@birdbrain42069) reported@LevelsUnlucky @ZorroRideThrice Real fans care about consistency and quality in comic, without quality they are not entertaining to read, and without consistency, you don't know what you read this week actually is going to be a thing next week. The major comic companies have lacked both of these things for more than 10 years, but especially the last 10 years. If Nintendo came out and said Mario's goal in the game, this has never been to save peach, It was to protect the environment of the mushroom Kingdom from the damage. Bowser is inflicting to it, everyone would laugh that off as stupid and fake. An actual example in the elder scrolls there is a set number of daedric princes, and this number was set so hard in the lore that it's tied to the fundamental structure of the universe, in elder scrolls online they decided to add another one, So you either have to accept this one this one daedric Prince added to the lore, not even from the main team and disregard the decades of lore that came before it, or you disregard the existence of that daedric prince. The big comic companies have been breaking their own universe for decades, and then building upon its broken corpse just breaking it more, that anyone who actually cares about comic books, actually cares about having consistency in their world of their characters. Has to ignore 90% of what they've put out over the last again 10ish years.
-
Winter (@Winterscythe11) reported@TheAnnaji They’ve fixed a majority of the gameplay problems but the world is still very boring and sanitized compared to the elder scrolls and fallout.
-
Daniel Ratterree (@RatterreeDaniel) reported@GameReviewGuy It doesn't matter. Most play live service. Of the rest most won't move or they'll go to PC. Sony has never been about the exclusives. It's the third party that sells PlayStation. Elder Scrolls/Fallout do offer an interesting test of that but for sure Halo/Forza wont move anyone
-
mr mothma ⚢ | #TeamGodgela (@navinquisition) reported@MA_Tazerz @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Same. Are we gonna have to reinstall all our mods and fix all our mod settings we've had forever?
-
Robert Gough (@SilentWraith87) reported@HazzadorGamin The problem is that trailer didn't give the impression that "Hey we're in the early stages of planning the next Elder Scrolls game." That trailer implied "It's in active development." when it clearly wasn't. It was basically "yeah we're going to work on TES 6 eventually."
-
Lé Wet Baguette (@WetBreadSticc) reported@xaviersonline_ why is it assumed that you must “age out” of the hobby? Nobody talks that way about enjoying movies or similar. anyways tho it’s **** elder scrolls, no one cares anymore and it’s gonna be ‘build your own castle’ slop and that’s the main issue, aging out or not.
-
Lightstreamfader (@Lightstream01) reportedActual cursed prohect, Elder Scrolls V.I has to follow: Bethesda's most disapointing game (Starfield) Broken game (Fallout 76) AND lauded game (Skyrim) and the game they most need to recapture, is the one modern Bethesda is least related to...
-
Weathering The Storm (@StolenDaughter) reported@TESOnline I installed today's patch and can't log in because it doesn't recognize the patch... fix this immediately.
-
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.
-
Psycho-Froggy (@PsychoFr0ggy) reported@JuiceHead33 I think that it shouldn’t take a decade to get another elder scrolls game. We went from Morrowind to Oblivion in 3-4 years. Oblivion to Skyrim in 5. There is clearly issues at Bethesda if they can’t manage to get a single game out that they announced more than a decade ago.
-
Yellow High Voltage Rat (@5h42k7007h50up) reportedLook, I love the Elder Scrolls and Fallout. Have since I first booted up my Xbox to play Morrowind in 2002. But you guys needed a kick in the ***. I hate that all those employees got fired, but taking 20 years to release a game, and then another decade of no DLC or content for said game, and relying only on modders to fill in what you left out, is the most laziest and snobbiest **** you could have ever run for a company. And not telling people about games or projects coming up, being so tight lipped and superior, and holier than thou art. On a gaming engine that is already 40 years old and barely works at launch, and takes a year to fix the game. Bethesda needed a kick in the ***. And it was long overdue.
-
Stranger Who (@StrangerWho934) reported@GTAJJ_ @NextGenPlayer You also have smaller examples like Jeremy Soule not working on The Elder Scrolls VI music or Microsoft not allowing Cliff Bleszinski to return to Gears of War.
-
Cabra (@cabraXP) reported@ther3n3gad3 Great point of view, he messed up badly in '76, and even more so with the game's decisions. They still have the problem with the graphics engine, and they have to deliver The Elder Scrolls; they have a lot to worry about.
-
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
-
ᛁᚾᚠᚨᚾᛏᚱᛃᚱᛁᚠᛚᛖ (@Infantryriflem4) reported@XboxTimdog Crash, elder scrolls, fallout, and maybe a couple others won’t be exclusive.
