So, in order to give everyone a good play experience in high-intensity situations like PvP and Trials, we need to essentially rewrite some of the foundational server code to account for it. The version of ESO in 2022 is many magnitudes larger and more complex than the ESO that launched in 2014.

We now have a plan going forward - but heads up: it is going to take some time.In short – just like we did for the client a year or so back when we introduced multithreaded rendering to increase client frame rates – we are going to rearchitect our server. These tests were successful and gave us the information we needed.

As many of you know, we did a series of tests over the last year to give us more data.
#ELDER SCROLLS ONLINE PVP UPDATE#
"It’s long past time to give everyone an update on where we are with PvP improvements. Effectively, Firor states that in order to give "good play experience," the code for the server needs to be partially rewritten. The statement starts off with Firor admitting that it's been "long past time" for a PvP update detailing improvements. Seemingly inresponse to the controversy, game director Matt Firor has put out a statement on the official forums, and while he doesn't direct address the comments or the stream, he does try to assuage some fears that PvPers might have.

However, it's the part of Lambert stating that if players feel they have done all the PvP they can possibly do, "go PvP somewhere else" that players have latched onto. Another clip has been circulating, with Terri stressing that the developers are working on PvP. While the question was certainly meant to get a response, as the accessability topic was about real accessbility options, things like colorblind modes and more, this isn't the first time some players may have felt ignored and neglected on one of these streams. Some players have come to the conclusion that ZeniMax has simply " given up on PvP." Players on the forums have expressed anger at being " shamed" for caring about the state of PvP and asking questions. Frustrations with PvP and the lack of updates to fix the massive issues has only grown in recent years, with many PvPers feeling neglected by the dev team. Player reaction has been, well, pretty predictable. In the background Rich can be seen just dropping his head, shaking it, likely knowing exactly where this clip would eventually lead. Many streams showing the two playing ESO exist, with the couple talking many topics, from life to Rich answering questions about the MMO.ĭuring a discussion on accessibility, one commenter on Twitch asked about accessibility in PvP, which Terri - who it should be noted is not a ZeniMax employee or representative and therefore doesn't officially speak for the studio - reacts by making a "crying" gesture, telling players they have "no sympathy" for PvPers. The clip in question, which has been shared on Reddit, the official ESO forums, as well as our own, is taken from a personal stream by Lambert, one of many the duo do after hours on Rich's personal Twitch channel.
