SCT will not include a traditional buff/debuff tracker, but that is something we're actively working on for a future update. It will display some info when you CC your target, though.Fruity_Ninja wrote: »
This is pretty crucial. I was under the impression that a buff/debuff tracker was going to come with the scrolling combat text, it is pretty crucial on console given how hard it is to track the visuals of certain buffs...
@ZOS_GinaBruno can you confirm?
No, it will just be a small download as part of the patch.To have 64 Bit Client, do we need to download the whole client again?14 -

@Darkheart I would imagine you'd need a new download, but hopefully just specifically the client part of it (inside ~\game\client), which isn't very big; it's the ~\depot and ~\vo_x downloads that take up all the drive space and download usage, and I would imagine they should remain the same.To have 64 Bit Client, do we need to download the whole client again?
Never mind, Gina beat me to it

@listerjmc I can't help but think we might have with Justice PvP, but since that's been cancelled, I doubt it. I dunno, I remember they also had plans for PvE things for the Enforcers, so there might still be something to do in that regard. Doesn't seem like it from the current announcement though.
Yeah I'm thinking no based on what I saw, but thought I'd ask! Maybe it's too much of a spoiler to say

I had thought it too hard to be true, but if this means that there are daily/regular/just quests in general that sends you around old zones, I am even MORE sold than I was when I saw the trailer!4 -

Benegon✭✭The first guy looks like he could be from assassin's creed lol. Looks cool. I'm not in to the camel mount I really need a direwolf to ride. Any idea how big the zone will be compared to other zones? I'm looking forward to the 64 bit client. Cross alliance grouping and all that stuff is cool too.0

What? I figured it was coming but now? No more Silver and Gold! Explore at will. Does this mean they have already completed the conversion of these zones to "battle leveled" zones?
Great question, exactly what I was wondering. @ZOS_GinaBruno you must tell us.

@ZOS_GinaBruno Thankyou kindly for the reply
Glad it's being actively worked on, promising signs indeed.

Only those that have access to the DLC will be able to use the passives. The focus is going to be to improve your toolset as a thief, and won't affect other players.Players without DLC will not gain access to that skill line? Will these 'exclusive' passive skills break balance? Or it is free DLC available for everyone?
Not quite yet, no. What this means is that once you reach VR1, the Silver and Gold alliances will unlock even if you haven't finished the main quest yet, and can progress in any order you'd like.What?

Thank you for the clarification. Obviously, not yet means you intend them to scale in the future when vet ranks are removed. FANTASTIC !!!

✭✭✭A 64-bit client for PC and Mac
@ZOS_GinaBruno Will this increase performance demand on the hardware? Will we need to upgrade our PCs?
Scrolling combat text (SCT)
Will it include a DPS meter and buff tracker and improved character sheet information?
Access to content from other alliances in any order you choose upon reaching Veteran Rank 1
Thank you so much for this! A welcome addition for roleplayers and altaholics. Will it scale like Orsinium?
Prioritization of animations during combat
Does it mean animation cancelling will be gone?
animation cancelling stays in the game fortunatelly:

64 bit: I doubt that they would increase the hardware requirements! just improves the performance! that would be a pretty bad move to the people who already have bought the game and would need to upgrade their PCs Edited by altemriel on 21 January 2016 18:031 -

✭✭✭@ZOS_KaiSchober @ZOS_GinaBruno guys, there is a new skill line mentioned. What about the people, who do not buy this DLC? Will it not cause disbalance for them?
Or will the new skill line be availiable in the base game patch (also to people who do not buy this DLC)?
I hope you do not intend to make this game pay to win?0 -

It kinda sounds like you're nerfing animation cancelling considering that is the practice of.. cancelling animations. I'm sweating right now @ZOS_GinaBruno

good question.
