Overflow Server

Post » Sun Mar 23, 2014 6:57 am

Not sure if its due to not a lot of people being on, but it's running real smooth on the overflow server. I noticed a couple of new things after this update, anyone else notice a few new things to graphics or the world?

I figured with a little time to play I went exploring and within 20 minutes found a hidden cave, 5 chest and a bunch of crafting stations with special mats. Exploring definitely has it's benefits in ESO

It came up around 7pm EST, if you get the login popup, make sure you select Overflow server...

Where do you pick Overflow server, after you are able to log in ? I'm still patching and I don't see a server list, but I did get an initial popup saying they were testing the overflow server *before* I was able to start patching.

I keep getting the same 4-11 second latency spikes that I got during the last beta. It's causing unwarranted deaths in about 20% of the level-appropriate fights I get into. This is happening to a lot of people, actually. I know the Evergloam has a good connection, so that's not an issue.

The only new strange thing I've noticed is an occasional camera jitter, like the whole screen shifts for a split-second. I am playing with a new setup though, so that might be the cause.

Not to be presumptuous, but are you running the latest driver for your GPU?

Definitely not a graphics issue. The frame rate is perfectly fine the whole time and I can even move around in the world. It's just that no actions happen for upwards of a good 11 seconds. Which means 11 seconds of enemies freely pummeling me into submission. And even I can't shadow-cloak through it when it's doing that.

not only you, I noticed the smoothness just moving the camera around. I explored a bit until I got kicked.

That was very cool and a nice surprise. I was only in for a bit, but me and two other people took down a dark anchor. Very fun and pleasant...can't wait for release. :)

Ahh bummer! I heard the server was supposed to be up until 7am. Darn it. Why not let us back in? What's the harm? :D

the wait queue has some new screenshots. Some quests are STILL broken... 2 out of 3 quests that I knew were broken before and I tested in Deeshan were still broken.

Didn't get thrown off horse, but I didn't spend much time on it. got in a group and cleared two dungeons... gained 1.5 more levels!

was great fun to be able to play again but...

still no option to choose your wep which is just ridiculous, created a dk and i wanted to go fire staff, never had a staff of any kind drop till a frost staff did at level 6 about 10 mins before server went down, didnt have enough maple from harvesting or breaking down all the bows i received in order to craft a fire staff. this really REALLY needs addressed.

horse dismount bug still in game. quest marker endless loop still in game telling you to walk through a door then pointing you back through the door you just came out of.

did not like overflow server at all, said there was an hour queue to get into the actual game... so played overflow and cant check mail, cant see friends online, says you're not guilded, cant enter cyrodiil, this is going to ruin eso for a lot of people if its like this at launch.

Horse bug still in.

Couldn't loot a costume as it said I had one already, but I didn't.

Other than that, I made what has to be the cutest male Nord ever.

Totally going to have a male main for a change. <3

lol not sure if being sarcastic, but yeah when i log in on launch day and i cant group, quest, or even chat with my friends its going to svck. i have never played an mmo that did anything like this, what they do is add more servers to you can play normally not lock you out of all mmo features.

There is no "more servers".

Overflow isn't meant to be played on long term. It's when there's a queue but you don't want to wait and really just want to futz around for a bit. Not your daily play session.
