Re: Your Play Experience b/t Update 45 and Update 46 with Subclassing and Scribing In Base Game
You need to make core classes competitive with subclasses. Period. End of discussion. Idk make subclassers accept debuffs in exchange for the damage increase and other flexibility or just buff those who decide to keep core class skills, maybe you get a bonus for having 2 and then another bump for all 3? Something has to be done and nerfing the core classes because of your half baked ideas is NOT the solution.

Bethesda UK disbanded
A friend of mine works for Bethesda UK community team. Today he told me it's been disbanded, tomorrow is his last day there. The reason given is "Microsoft restructuring". This is sad news, he's a talented guy and will easily find another job, but it doesn't bode well for the community everywhere with all these cuts.

I think a lot of people against the test have just fallen for the illusion of "choices" on live. Where in reality now a days you pick one unique sub class off meta and maybe a 5 piece of flavor. Anything else and you either are dropping hard off meta usability wise or found a gimmick/exploit to abuse in niche situations.SeaGtGruff wrote: »But the lack of CP has really hurt. It's easy to die to fall damage if you aren't careful, and riding to fights almost feels like you're in slow motion.I playes the first test and decided to pass the second. All you mentioned is important for me and make me play cyrodiil without it i have no reason to play it.
I spent days of grinding the skills, sets and days of practice and now i should use a template. Nah for people who running most of time in zergs or just want to check out cyro it is maybe ok. But for players who plays over the yrs it is just a A$$kick.
I think the horse speed is fine maybe as is sprint wise, but mount stamina needs to be drastically cut such that it is a balance game or reactive to being ganked. PvE sure infinite flying swimming "speed of light" mounts pose no issue, but PvP has a profound effect. One major factor again is how group/zerg pvp hurts performance. Bringing back natural ways to teach newer players it is safe to leave the flock is a good thing. With infinite speed and stamina ganking is not possible for pugs to attempt. Ganking was perfect for new players to try soloing, they could pick and choose their fights and on their own terms. At the same time, when ganked it broke people away from the flock and into a situation where they had to learn............. Its one of those things that people hated it as a speedbump, but failed to realize its importance.
This second test of vengeance was a major fail. Most of the time performance was as bad or worse than regular live Cyrodiil. How could performance have been this bad with everything stripped out of the game?
I sort of had that thought after the first test.
Like, they stripped basically everything out of the game but still only bumped up the caps to 300?
That, to me, seems like there are much more profound architectural issues present than simple ability logic, etc. will ever be able to account for. Wasn't the cap like 1000 per faction at launch? How is it that we are celebrating being <1/3 of those numbers despite the immense advancements in server compute made since 2014? In other words, if we are getting 2014 gameplay then why are we failing to meet even 2014 performance? Where has the performance actually gone?
