I've been trying to get mats for a work order for over 1/2 hour and have had 2 rollbacks and lost all the mats I gathered both times. Why the rollbacks and is it going to continue?

Mouse, I was just about to post about this and saw your post...
Ever since the big patch yesterday both my wife and I keep getting booted from the game to the character select screen at the same exact time and rolled back about 5 minutes. If I equip an item it's back in the bag, if I deconstruct an item it's back in the bag, and if I pick up an item it's gone!
Has anyone heard anything about this being worked on and fixed?
We just can't play like this and logged out both last night and this morning.
Thanks,
Tuz
Yeah, I have the same problem in Stonefalls. Bug reported it yesterday and they ask me to do some test in game today, but from his wording, then it sounds like they are trying make sure that something on my computer didn't cause me to be kicked out and rolled back.
So I think they are working on it, but I don't know.
Same problem here! In Riften and in Cyrodiil. The game freezes, then everything goes black and then it's the desktop with the error message screen. So far I didn't get a rollback, but I'm crashing a lot. But I mean A LOT more than before.
Per the forums this was in the process of being fixed as of Noon Eastern time. No note that it is actually fixed yet however. So only two hours ago as of my post here, they said it was in progress for being fixed.
FYI, the developers are not making the rollbacks. They're not really "rollbacks", at least in how most people think of a rollback, they're server crashes that recover from the server's latest data save. That's usually 5-15 minutes, depending on the game. You may have had the same thing happen in a single player game that crashes, it recovers from your last data save. Same thing for MMO games, just on a larger scale and affecting a lot more players.
I am about the same as Kitty - have not suffered a rollback yet either and I'm not crashing a lot - but a little... 2x in about 8 hours which is more than before - but it isn't anything I haven't experienced before after a big patch. Patches usually are fix 100 things, break 10 others.
It is kind of like when I was younger and did maintenance on my children. I got them to pick up their socks and underwear, not leave the water running in the bathroom, turn off their bedroom lights, close the patio door when they went outside, wipe their feet when they came back in - but then they would gargle with milk at the dinner table. :)
It is on going process.
One thing I found out by playing around with settings was that if you set the screen mode back to 'Windowed (Full Screen)', then everything will run a lot smoother and bring me back to pre patch fps.
Hmm... I check that screen mode thing Boone, thanks a lot!
I want to say that I waited about two hours after my first post here and logged-0n and played all afternoon with no problems, maybe it's fixed.
