Would you want a sea based dlc?

PriorityBalle · February 2016

No

definitely do not want a playable maormer race, they're gonna be the next argonians most likely.

LBxFinalDeath · February 2016

Indeed, 50% more swim speed as a passive for the skill line too.

Yes

Next imperials if we're talking about dlc

LiquidSchwartz · February 2016

Yes

YES
but maybe no maormer
they dont have the current classes/races balanced yet i dont want them to throw another one in there to make them even more distracted

Molag_Crow · February 2016

Yes

That would be awesome.

Lightninvash · February 2016

Yes

I say yes but add underwater exploration be a thing in it. Not combat just exploration in that area. would be fun and give Argonians a reason to be played more to explore the deep blue seas

maboleth · February 2016

Yes

Yes please!!!

The moment I crossed on the ship to travel to Stros, Bethnik and others, I was hooked! I imagined fighting pirate battles at the open sea, attacking other ships and such! It would be aaaawesome!

Robbmrp · February 2016

Yes

The bigger question to this would be: "Why wouldn't someone want a Sea based DLC????"...

Rex-Umbra · February 2016

Yes

Naval pvp please

Acrolas · February 2016

No

Standing on a ship that won't sink, next to other ships that won't sink, while some guy in zone chat keeps making "clever" booty references...

It's breakin MAH M M M M MURSHONS.

Arrr MATEY!

I think it sounds cool. I don't know if they would do it, but it sounds cool.

There's a grappling hook joke in there somewhere but danged if I can find it!

As far as those concerned with immersion, it's water. Oceans, seas, immersion is everywhere!

AshTal · February 2016

Yes

I like the idea, any DLC with more choice and not tied into being forced to play a certain roll sounds good to me.

PCheuk38b14_ESO · February 2016

Yes

We can finally find out more about the argonians super useful swim faster racial passive =O

Like this?

We need Argonians to turn into Werecrocs even if just to be cosmetic.

Samsayia · February 2016

Yes

YES to being a *** PIRATE

Let the pirate RPers rule the day! Go pirates of the Caribbean up in this ***. Don't give no ****s.

ALSO this. Aw man this thread has yes all over it.

Especially if open seas are PvP content. Attack other guilds ships...yes please. Could be awesome fun!

If not, I still loved Skies of Arcadia...if they could incorporate some sort of ship to ship combat, with guild members oroviding unique roles in the ship, that would be amazing!

I hate PvP but few can argue against instanced team-based PvP. There's already been a lot of public outcry for arenas and battlegrounds where population is taken out of the question and people can fairly square up each other rather than being stuck in Gank City.

A very good PvP game example for ZoS to take inspiration from would be Guns of Icarus Online. Not saying they need to go as in-depth at all, but it's a good place for ideas if they ever went in that direction with a DLC and brought in pirate ship battles.

Each map has 4-6 ships, either two on two or three on three. And each ship has four people on it and you have pilots, gunners and engineer classes. Guns of Icarus makes it a chess match as much as it is a PvP thing. Each ship has advantages and disadvantages and you can pick and choose the different weapons and utilities you want on the ship to match the skill level of your crew. All the different classes have different tools and specialties. So depending on who you're working with you can build different load outs. And that's even BEFORE you get to the different maps battle can take place on and enacting strategies.

There's elements on the maps like giant columns, buildings, fog screens etc. And the ground. If your ship's balloon goes out you sink and smash into the ground-- so some teams end up building ships specifically for popping your balloon and then landing on top of you and crushing you into the ground. I've been on the receiving end of that actually, and it's a humiliating defeat in which I'm sure the victors toasted cocktails with our rage tears afterwards.

Unfortunately no one will tolerate a team based pirate ship battles unless your regular battle ground/arena maps come out. Cyrodiil and IC aren't proving to be enjoyable for most people, with or without the lag. Like I said, I absolutely hate PvP, but team-based pirate ship PvP I think a lot of RPers and PvEr's could get down with. If it was done well enough.

mike.eso · February 2016

Yes

I would like a boat...I would sail to the island of Nolag and claim it as my home.

Ackwalan · February 2016

The problem with water, is the amount of lag it brings. You could have a flat ugly blue landscape and call it the ocean, but that would just ruin the entire DLC.

Teridaxus · February 2016

Yes

Lol at all those pirate answers, i actually wanted to beat those up as a law following citizen of the empire.^^

Yes

I defiantly agree with you. I want weresharks!
As for sea based dlc we are getting Hews Bane which could be connected with piracy and weresharks! But I do want to see underwater content added in the future as well!

Samsayia · February 2016

Yes

Batman fought a wereshark (King Shark). And the Vestige is basically Elderscrolls batman. Weresharks therefore are fitting.

altemriel · February 2016

Yes

Which would include:
Guild owned ships
Daily quests like escorting trade ships or hunting down pirates
Maormer/sea elves quest line
Playable Maormer race
Exploration of underwater caves
Sea monsters as bigger raid monsters since dragons are out and daedra overused by now
Expansion/revamp of fishing

and it would proceed to the huge continent on the east with new DLC there.

strikeback1247 · February 2016

No, as a khajiit i hate water

I want a screen covered with seamen :^)

Artjuh90 · February 2016

i would get annoyed of all the swimming rather see DLC's like orsinium with 90% less hills

Septimus_Magna · February 2016

No

No need to buff Argonians even more

TheShadowScout · February 2016

Yes

"Yarr, harr, fiddle-de-dee, being a pirate is awright with me..."

But certainly a ocean based DLC would be nifty! Not like the maormer quests in AD aren't laying the groundwork for the possibility...
Someday.
There's a LOT of land regions I'd kinda want to see first after all...

phreatophile · February 2016

Yes

As long as I can get underwater, I'm in.

They might actually have to give us Alteration spells.

MrPoolaty · February 2016

Yes

There is a loading screen picture that has a small boat with two people in it rowing across water near a lighthouse.I wonder if it is something to come?
