After being able to use the Psijic Villa for over a year suddenly I have been having a recurring load screen loop for 3 months now. First time it happened, I pulled up the map, choose the Psijic Villa icon and attempted to travel there. I got the normal Psijic Villa load screen but then a loud screeching sound was heard, the spinning ouroboros stopped, the screen went black, then I got the blue PlayStation screen stating that an error has occurred in the following application- the Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel unlimited, with 2 boxes saying, suggested action and report problem. I tried to report the problem, but this only took me to the PlayStation page. I reloaded the game; picked the character I was using only to end up in an infinite load screen loop. I have at this point sent in several tickets about this matter. 3 to 4 tickets were sent in under “get my character unstuck”. This seemed to work, as my character was removed from the Villa and placed in an alliance town. But it was only a temporary fix, as it has happened again and again. One of the return tickets suggested I make sure my game was up to date (it is), to power cycle the console, clear saved data and uninstall/reinstall the game. I did all this, and it was a temporary fix. I thought it was due to high traffic on the sever during the weekend. So, I stopped going to my Villa on the weekends, but then it happened during the week too. I also tried not traveling directly to the Villa using the map. I would go to a wayshrine, travel to Artaeum, run up to the college and use the portal to the Villa, but I ended up in the same load screen loop no matter what I did. The last time I got stuck in the infinite load screen loop I was not at my Villa, I was at a guild members Villa, the game froze and when I tried to reload the game my character was again stuck in the Psijic Villa load screen loop. I sent in another ticket but got nowhere. I was told by technical team that they could not find my account, for some reason it showed up as the ticket was sent in under Xbox not PS4 even though I sent it in under PS4. I was told to do all the above mention steps to get my character unstuck again. And was told to put in a report bug ticket by typing in */bug* in the chat window while in game. This is not an option for me as I cannot load the character due to it being in an infinite load screen loop. I have already uninstalled/reinstalled the game to get my character out of the infinite load screen loop multiple times now. The never ending getting stuck in the infinite Psijic Villa load screen loop is impeding my game play. I can no longer use the Psijic Villa as my primary house, which has my crafting tables. I am not sure how to remove the furniture due to not being able to load the Villa. I can no longer participate in one of my guilds because their guild hall is a Psijic Villa that has all the attuned crafting tables to make armor and do Master writs with. No longer can I visit any players home that is a Psijic Villa. All due to this never ending Psijic Villa load screen loop.
Below is the last response I received for the elder scrolls online team.
Greetings! Thank you for contacting The Elder Scrolls Online Team. My name is Jonny and it would be my pleasure to assist you today. I completely understand the frustration that you must be having with this villa! I have looked over all your previous tickets and that you have performed all the troubleshooting that we have sent you. It turns out the villa is too large for the PlayStation 4 to handle in most cases which explains why it loads in sometimes and refuses to other times. Since all the troubleshooting we have provided has been exhausted there is nothing more that we can do to assist. I would keep an eye out for our patch notes here. I apologize that this has not been of much help to you. I would also suggest referring to our forums if another player has solved this issue on their own, at your own risk, however. If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to reach back out to us here at customer support so that we may investigate the issues you may be experiencing. Thank you for your continued interest and support! Warm Regards, Jonathan The Elder Scrolls Online Team
I feel this response is a copout and here is why. The main guild I belong to has 230 members and uses a Psijic Villa as the guild hall. Many of these members also have the Psijic Villa and not one of them have said they had an infinite Psijic Villa load screen loop ever. I also belong to a house decorating guild with 500 members which most of them also have the Psijic Villa. Again, not one of them has the infinite Psijic Villa load screen loop. My husband also has the Psijic Villa and uses it as his primary with no issues. I did a test to see if it was just my PlayStation by signing into my account on my husband’s PlayStation. Need less to say, I ended up with one of characters stuck in an infinite Psijic Villa load screen loop. I logged out of the PlayStation and my husband logged in on the same PlayStation. He was able to go to his Villa, the guild hall Villa and other players Villas, all with no issue.
The problem is somewhere in my account saved on the ESO server not with my PlayStation. It would be nice if the ESO team could investigate this a little more diligently and come up a real solution.
