    Yes, Thank you! Thank you! Thank you so much! thank you so very-very much! I started crying, i swear, i cried like child. I've been begging for the character appearance customization for so long, for a year! A hole year. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for listening to your community, thank you for loving your game, thank you for making it. This is the best MMO ever, none could top it, only because you've invested so much feeling in it. I voice my appreciation and give you my money, no other mmo deserves it more. Please, keep it up and be careful with what you put in cash shop, I've seen this over and over again in my life. Perfect MMOs hit the ground for being greedy. You have plenty of players to keep you well fed, please be careful, I beg of you!

    i bet theyre going to make the barbershop/race change sub only.
    they will gain so many subs if they do that

    No, they won't do that. They will sell tokens in the store for anyone to purchase.

    Yeah, the crown store.

    Gosh I hope there will be even a bit of the barber shop in game rather than crown only.

    I'm sort of expecting things like hair change and minor tweaks to models which are already available at the character building screen, to be available at the cost of in-game gold. But then sex change, name change, race change and various "premium" hairstyles or body markings to be available for purchase via tokens from the crown store.

    we are getting Barbershop, so that is why they added only a small portion of new content.

    I knew it would be like that.

    Barbershop was requested by many players (me included) for long time now. So they will satisfy us finally.

    Wait for Q4 for a new zone ;)

    Agreed.
    You folks want new zones?
    Quit asking for fluff content.

    This update sounds awesome and I can't wait to check out the new dungeons. That said, I also still enjoy running the current dungeons, which I haven't been able to do since the grouping tool has been broken following the DB patch :|

    wait you do not use zonechat to find a group for pledge dungeones? I always do it and it works fine :)

    This is coming, supposedly, in Q1 of 2017... Instead of a new zone.

    could we please get some more info, if the Barbershop will be crown store only? Or if it will be possible to buy at least basic changes with in-game gold? and some extra stuff trough crown store?

    And I suppose that when we get only 2 new dungeons, the price of this DLC will not be the same as Orsinium or DB?

    - Cyrodrill towns -> 3 flags, great! i was worried that they would make the same mistake that they did with the IC districts
    The biggest problem with the IC flags is they just look tacked on, and don't feel natural in any way or mesh into the setting or story of IC.

    i hardly belive that the biggest problem of a PvP content is the "story".

    2 new dungeons + 3 updated Trials is a really nice group PvE patch after what were, for the most part, 3 straight solo DLC.

    I am a little nervous about references to "max level" instead of CP160, though. Will the new dungeons + AA/HRC/DSA be CP180 content? Will existing content scale up to CP180? Or will everything currently CP160 stay there for now?

    No new zone just 2 new group dungeons :/ not much of a DLC. I guess this is a example of a episode DLC that Matt Firor was talking about. Here's the Matt Firor quote from E3 2016: Firor says that Zenimax is aiming to release multiple, "smaller" DLC packs to cater to players who return to the game intermittently, creating something akin to 'episodes' for the game. That doesn't sound good for any future large Orsinium type DLCs. I'll be ending my sub for this DLC nothing here for me.

    Sure... on a cold day in the Deadlands, they might do that. Uh. Maybe not even then.

    This is a cash cow. I expect that anyone in ZOS that even suggests gold instead of Crowns gets escorted to the curb by the marketing people. :smiley:


    Mooooooooooooo

    Yeah...I think we're long past having an in-game barbershop for gold. Ah well...

    I'm hoping that the new hairstyles, etc. will work like the costumes, in that once you purchase one, it's available to all your characters and can be changed whenever. The hairstyles could go into the hat section and work like wigs.

    The tokens I'm guessing will be one-use items to change appearance, name, etc. Hopefully, using one token allows you to do all the changes you want to a character, rather than a token for name change, one for race change, and then one for any appearance changes. One token should allow you to go back to character creation to make all the changes to race, name, appearance - default hairstyles included - for one character.

    Can't get excited about group dungeons as it is difficult for me to get into a group. I have very little to bring to a group as I am not that great of a player. I would have it that the group dungeons had solo versions so I can get abused and killed without an audience. I understand many folks new to MMOs believe that MMO means Massive Multiplayer Online Cooperative so...I'll not complain too loudly lest I get abused right here in the threads.

    I do like the concept of changing my appearance because the system was not functioning correctly ( I could not see my characters face up close) when I created my first character. This ability will allow me to adjust the facial features when I can actually see them clearly.

    Any chance this DLC will also come with a fix for the group finder?
    Be kinda silly to add dungeons no one can find groups for.

    well we will be getting the Barbershop, so that was expectable that the next new content will be not as large, as if we would not get Barbershop too included.

    so.... great content that will improve the quality life in endgame for both pve and pvp players is not good? better to have a zone with 2 delves, 1 crafting station a a few quests that you in 1 weekend and done? /facepalm

    Meh, i wish the group dungeons also had a solo option. Give better loot drops for more players but let us solo them if we want to.

    I hardly doubt they'll do that. Zos understood time ago that they can curve the power creep just with new sets. Covering niche situations like Vicious Death or Eternal Hunt or just straight up stronger options like the Maelstrom weapons or scathing mage. There is no need whatsoever of a new cp tier.

    The Barbershop is not a large new piece of content it's just an extension of the current character creator that's already in the game and I see the Barbershop as a crown store addison not part of the DLC.

    Definitely excited about text chat on console, plus dyeable costumes!

    Since I don't PVP or PVE, not much new content for me, but I don't mind, since the last 3 DLC have been mostly for solo players. Plus, with the base game additions, I'll be happy for a while. Plus, I haven't even actually been to Hew's Bane and the Gold Coast yet, even though I've already purchased the DLC. I'd been working on getting my main to V16 prior to the removal of Vet Ranks (by completing Cadwell's Gold - still have some quests in Reaper's March to finish up), just to have done it and to get the full additional 40 CPs!
