• [COMPLETE] Xbox: NA and EU megaservers for maintenance – November 27, 6:00AM EST (11:00 UTC) - 9:00AM EST (14:00 UTC)

Is this a game breaker? It might be for me.

    Worst part about it is having to take all the attachments at once...even if you only want one thing from that piece of mail.

    Not to mention the price of each letter, if you do this a lot it could get expensive.

    Yea I wish I could see how much I've spent while doing this. But it can't be more than the 3,300 gold to upgrade bank 10 more slots.

    I almost quit over the lack of inventory in this game as I like to craft and gather. but since i already paid for a sub I decided to suck it up and have instead STOPPED crafting, stopped gathering mats except the odd one or two and stopped ransacking everything in game except cupboards and bookcases. if that is what the devs had in mind then WELL DONE! but its saves me grief with spending hours... yes hours .. alt shifting in order to craft skills and move crap around. im enjoying hte game now. first time in weeks.

    i now vendor it all and am working towards getting the faster horse since the one with the preorder is so crap.

    i have no problem with the bank the way it is..only craft what your character needs, instead of trying to craft everything you can...right now im level 23 sorcerer, specializing in light armor, wood working, and enchanting. i only put in the bank the mats i need for those 3 professions. i have yet to run out of space. I craft new armor every two levels, i sell all whites, and break down all others for mats. i research every chance i get to max out everything im using in crafting. i sell all medium armor, sell all heavy armor and metal weapons, basically sell anything that has no use for anything im specializing in. you have adapt and overcome to the game, instead have having the devs dumb down the game to make it easier.

    Also please increase the stack size, Needing to use 2 bank slots to store 200 iron ingots is a PITA. I'm playing the game to adventure, loot, scour dungeons and complete quests, not micro manage my inventory.

    Bitching about inventory space because you want to see how many iron ingots you can get for the sake of having as many iron ingots as you can is just silly.

    Who's bitching ? It was a request, that's why I said please. And, whilst you might not want to see or understand the reason this is why.

    It also occurred to me... 100 iron ingots in one stack may sound like a lot, but even at level 14 or so you're burning like 9 - 11 ingots for one item to be created... so that stack gets you ten items (which of course don't stack, so you have ten inventory slots filled until an alt can take out those items)... so if we're only ever expected to have 100 ingots in a stack, that's saying that we have to stop what we're doing to craft ~ten~ items... and then we can go back to adventuring until we get 100 more ingots and have to stop to craft ten more items... tedious.

    Like I said in my earlier post , I've no wish to micro manage my inventory, and yes it's my choice and it's also my right to ask/suggest the devs consider some alternatives.

    What's so wrong with that ?

    What's wrong with it is that it will never be enough. The devs have already increased the inventory sizes from Beta, and yet people want more. So let's say the devs honor your "request" and add more. Is that enough? When is it enough? At what point is everyone happy with the inventory system?

    Hint: Never.

    Rather than never be happy with the inventory try exercising a little discipline, find workarounds, use mules, stop hoarding stuff. It's a level playing field. No one is advantaged or disadvantaged here, except those of us that have been hit by the bug that deletes any bank upgrades we've already purchased, taking us back to 60, and dumping all 5 pre-order items back in our mailboxes. It happened to me and I am still managing my inventory just fine by being disciplined about what I hold onto, selling what I don't need, and crafting, refining, muling, deconstructiong, or researching the stuff I do.

    It seems to me that there are two huge complaints about the game (which incidentally is still in it's infancy). One is the inventory thing. The other is the guild stores. People complaining that there is nothing in the guild stores. There's nothing in the guild stores because people are stuffing their banks and inventory to the gills with crap they aren't using like multiple stacks of iron ingots.

    Even better, how about we have them go back to the "weight" system for inventory like the single player games... so we can only carry 3 axes and 2 pieces of iron armor but 5 bows and 8 pieces of cloth armor.

    I think there is plenty of space available once you buy a few upgrades.. I just wish there was a seperate bank tab for just Provisioning ingredients as about half of my bank is currently food stuffs

    Why not put a dynamic quest in for more slots? Not doubling the space but maybe 10 more slots or so.

    What I would do is just limit the amount of crafts available per account. This seems the only real way to combat this, instead of throwing up annoying roadblocks to try and fail to get the same result. Because I imagine the amount of people willing to purchase multiple accounts just to obtain new crafting possessions would be minimal.

    Glad you're not a game designer in that case, then.

    Tell people that their alts can't level different crafts? Uh .. no. Just no.

    As I keep saying in this and other threads it is just Provisioning that is the problem... you can do all 5 of the other skills on one account and not have much difficulty with bag/bank space, but once you pass level 10 or so provisioning explodes with a silly number of ingredients and nowhere to put them. Especially if you wander Cyrodil. The barrels I found there had silly stuff
