Zenimax shoot themselves in the foot.

I just want to say that I allready brought the game, and I will play, and I do like it all ready.

But I must admit the last few weekends have been hell, playability wise. Its been full of quest, and regular bugs. Its been laging like crazy, unresponsive.

I know these weekends are to stresstest, and it hopefully will make the launch smoother. But the people who try this game, and are still unsure as to whether or not to buy it... This is like a seriously bad commersial.

Lets be honest. 90% of the people playing stress tests is to find out if they like the game, try out classes, content, figuring out specs and the like. If they come on here to try it, and it plays like this, it turns people off to the game. When they try it the weekend after and its STILL not fixed, they get even moe turned off. If they come on a 3ed time, and find the game unplayble, there is a real chance they wont buy it. Thats really sad considering. I have seen a lot of stress tests go smoother then these have, a lot! Some might be bad the first day, but it gets fixed within hours normally. The server go down, 1 hour later its up, and lag problems fixed straight up. This have not been the case in ESO. This being the last stress test I imagined it would run miles better than it did today. I will play the game regardless, but the future and hopes for a semi smooth launch is quickly fading like the evening sun.

Dont bash me too hard, yes its beta, so on and so forth.

Its stress testing so thats why you would experience more lag and loading time issues. They are purposely and through having tons of players seeing what there hardware can handle and what they need to fix.

Its also a trial yes but its still stress testing.

The problem is that over the course of stress testing there should be progress, and there hasn't been any. If anything there are more issues now than there were 3-4 stress tests ago.
