Character Selection Screen. ZOS, I beg you.

This is a feature we do still intend to do, but there are many other things taking priority so we don't yet have an exact update when this will be implemented.

Thank you very much for your insight! Do you mind sharing some of those other prioritary things? Tease us Gina!!!!

I hope removing crown crates is one of them so I can go back and indirectly purchase items that I want instead of gambling

Perhaps the simple design is log in/out order

Last player logged out of appears at the top

Well, that would be a mess for fast loggers, chars would always be in a different spot on the list.

A comprehensive order management tool with a simple drop system would do the trick. Just let people order them by classes, races, alliance, crafting dailies order, importance... it's a very small life quality improvement that looks so easy that it would certainly make things easy for us.

Hmm O k.....For me choosing who I log in/out makes the best sense as it's based on who I use most often

Speed has nothing to do with it

If your OCD is this bad, please seek medical attention.

It's mostly things that accompany upcoming updates or bug fixes. In the short term, there's a lot of supporting UI work for Homestead. For example, the housing editor is a huge piece of new UI!

You can't really expect me to be satisfied with that!!! We are craving some more insight! Urgent ESO Live need!!!

Thanks again for stopping by Gina!

What's so incredibly important about character order in the log in screen?

Dear ZOS, please, please, please allow us to change characters order in character selection menu.
I'm not asking about special filters (alphabetic, alliance, class, time played, whatever). No.
Just, please, apply simple mechanics for manual order change. Drag-n-drop, right click, BDO-like one, anything you like.
I desperately need this.

This is a nice idea.

I personally don't switch characters often but I suppose if I did then it would be convenient to have them in a particular order rather than in the order they were created.

Dojohoda · December 2016

Don't understand the importance of this but whatever.

Zos has some real problems to address, I would rather see them fix the game.

How is this interfering in the rest of the game?
People asume ZOS is Brian Wheeler, Gina Bruno, Eric Wrobel and Matt Friror hanging out with one single pc and being like: "guys, stop trying to fix Cyrodiil, they are asking in the forums for a character selection UI change, remove all the other issues from the list". Geez.

I didn't say that. Some people cannot log on to the game half the time; they are kicked back to character select and when they do finally log on they disconnect or get bumped back to the character select screen when changing zones. The ETA on the logging/DC'ing is February and the problem started Months ago. Little changes to the game seems to break something or reverts a "fix" somewhere in the code. I'm skeptical. The mention of character select triggered me, sorry.

It's not incredibly important. Personally, I just want my main to be at the top of the list. And I think a lot of people feel the same way, or similar at least.

I remember something like that said two years ago. Does that mean we still have to wait a few years ?

Mayrael · September 2017

Ummm... Bump! Soon it will be almost another year! @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom
Any news on that feature?

TheAshenWrath · October 2017

Also bumping. Would love to see this feature implemented.

AzraelKrieg · October 2017

Let the topic die. We don't need the Worm Cult on the forums too

Ozstryker · October 2017

aaaaaaand... controller support in the character section screen.. just while we are being all OCD

lagrue · October 2017

Not only would I like this so I can arrange my characters from CP to low level alts - but we also need a fix on PS4 for the character selection screen...

Currently if you open the PS menu while in the selection screen, you will most of the time crash the game with an error. I've replicated it several times to be sure it wasn't a one off thing.

Even being aware of the bug I pull it off all the time because somebody messages me while loading up the game, and silly me - I go to check the message and boom! crash.
