Out of sync in the middle of the game

Post by Hipokondriako »

Hello everyone,

I was playing 3 v 3 for... I don't know how long, but I was on imperial age already. Suddenly, I got a pop up saying "out of sync" and I got disconnected from ESO. I never had lag issues and the game was running smooth until then. Internet didn't drop either, as I am using voice service and it didn´t disconnect. Obviously, when I reconnected to ESO, I was in the main lobby. Does this happen when the host drops or something, did they force an oos error because they were about to lose (it was the last push), or is there anything wrong in my computer?

Was the game about to end (i.e. was one of the teams in a winning position)? OOS (out of sync) is a common way to cheat by rendering the game useless.
Pay more attention to detail.

Sounds like someone on the opposing team triggered the OOS intentionally.

Well, 60% chance of it being the opposite team unless you interpret Imperial Age as a winning position, in which case it would be (100-ε)% where ε is the length of the penis of @thebritish.

Out-of-syncing is my favorite victimless kraim.

Thank you for your answers. Today I found someone who was in my team that day. Only I dropped, so enemy triggering it is very unlikely.

I've seen players from winning team doing oos , and blaming it on the opponent.
Nice trick btw.
