No I am not quitting....yet

The current state has to change and fast...I don't want this game to be a ghost town.

The main things they need to fix are.
  1. CC
  2. Input lag
  3. Skills not firing but consuming resources
  4. Animations not playing
  5. Bolt Escape (Know I will get flamed for this one)
  6. and frankly find a way to encourage more player interaction instead of following a zerg or player vs wall.... Right now I feel there is no real reason to group.

    But between the class imbalances, input lag, sometimes spells not going off but consuming magicka/ultimate, CC Spam (Even with breaker), BOLT ESCAPE, bugs....SHEER AMOUNT OF BUGS....and player vs wall being 90% of the pvp...

    I just couldn't take it anymore, every time I play the game I get more fed up with it and ZoS poor choices...

    I want this game to succeed, I want to LOVE it again...the pvp is just so dreadfully awful...

    and so it begins.

    not like i havent warned of that to happen many many months ago during beta.

    i bet u wish u had listened ZOS huh?

    well learn by pain now. f2p before end of the year, im calling it right now.

    You know 80% (a wild estimate) of the game is PvE right?

    You know they specifically developed a PvP side for the game right?

    Also if you want to defend this as a PvE game you might be on the wrong forums.

    Oh it is the guy that was spreading the rumor of the 3 second shield bash CD on PTS. I see you start a lot of doom and gloom threads. Please do us a favor either quit or be constructive with a post for once, and research before posting.

    I started the thread because I literally watched it happen on the PTS...

    How about you do ME a favor and don't post on my threads if you can't contribute to the topic...agree or disagree but don't bring this random trash trying to smudge my name.

    You were disproved in that very thread. You never showed evidence and just spread false information. Just as you have the right to make threads I have the right to post in them. Don't want me to post in your threads don't make anymore.

    Your post is just doom and gloom and there is nothing constructive to post about it. It is mostly opinions and opinion wars get no where.

    Yeah man, like I still tell my friends how much potential the game has and that they should play it, but the more I pvp (which is the only reason I play MMOs) the more I just get frustrated at poor design choices even when I am winning.

    Thanks for the reply I do appreciate it.

    Been playing since the 5 day head start. I don't have to keep playing to know how I will feel about the game. I enjoy it for what it is, and have managed around the bugs. Does it get annoying sometimes when the game bugs out hell yes it does, but when the game frustrates me I just log out and play something else. Then when I have had time to either figure out how to fix the problem, I get back in game to enjoy myself again.

    ESO, is not my life, and as long as I play 15 hours a month I feel I got my $15 worth out of my sub. There is very few other entertainment options out there that you pay for that cost as little as $1 a hour. Hell, I can't even drive down the road for that cheap with gas prices as they are.

    just give it some more time :)

    PS: not trying to talk the fun out of the game for you. if ur still having fun thats cool. what im saying is that it gets boring rather quickly which is due to the flaws the OP posted + many many critical design flaws.

    You might be right. I might get tired of the game, but then again I might not. I have played it everyday since the 5 day head start and still have tons more I want to do in it. I will give the op this is recent post was very constructive, and helps more than the original post.

    1. CC is always going to be annoying. They aren't very clear with how those mechanics works with the players, and makes it so much harder to work with them.
    2. Not sure if I have seen this but pretty sure I have, and it would be annoying so I agree.
    3. I think I have seen this a few time, but didn't realize that is what happened. So, if it is happening, I agree.
    4. This doesn't bother me so much, as some animations just being too long to finish.
    5. I can go either way on this, and so will leave it be.
    6. I agree 100% with this.

    Yeah man, I re-read my original post and it did come off TOO negative so I changed it to have the list in there to be more constructive.

    I had written it right after I put the game off and some of that negativity came through.

    I want nothing more than this game to succeed and I know ZoS has it in them to do it, but they keep making these poor decisions.
