Good news! Vet content made harder was a mistake!

Hello all,

All of your self-entitlement issues and bitching worked!

Hey guys,

This change was not intended, though some VR content and monsters are indeed more difficult after yesterday’s patch. We are working on a fix now to revert the difficulty back to what you were familiar with prior to patch 1.1.2, and plan to have this rolled out in the next 24 hours. Thanks so much for your patience!

I hope you're all happy now

But the real question, was it a genuine mistake? Or are they regretting it?

Considering it made some VR portions of the game more challenging than Craglorn, I'd say it was not intentional.

Considering these mobs are more powerful than ones in Craglorn? I'd say it was a genuine mistake. Besides, Zenimax seems to be good at making mistakes.

OP?

It's called a CYA program.

Not to mention it made some solo only instances impossible. For example I hear people had a lot of fun with Balreth...

We complain about a genuine issue, one that was apparently not intended... Yet you feel the need to make an entire thread about a response a Mod gave in another thread, while trying to demean us...

And WE'RE self-entitled. Ok.

I'm merely questioning the reasoning behind her post. It's easy to try and change the game and then say it was a 'mistake' rather than say "yeah, we tried to make the game more difficult and it didn't work, we're sorry"...

Maybe you're forgetting how difficult it is to say sorry, especially from multi-millionaire companies.

Thats all well and dandy, but are you or are you not the geico gecko?

Maybe a disgruntled Dev whose eyes are bleeding from all the "this game is too easy" threads

While coding

"oh yeah players .. stick this in your pipe and smoke it!"

It wasn't intended, whether you were for it or against it, you have to acknowledge that when known group content is easier than existing content you've been soloing up until then, something is wrong.

Now would be the time for those wanting to slingshot ahead to do Craglorn content while it's easier ... lol.

They need to realize there's a quiet dignity in admitting a fault and fixing it, as opposed to just not responding at all. I can promise you these forums wouldn't be NEARLY as full of "Bitchy" posts if ZoS just freaking communicated with us a reasonable amount.

Hi, all. As ZOS_GinaBruno stated in the content quoted above, the increase in veteran mob difficulty was not intended, and we're working on changing it now. We're closing this thread, as it is not constructive. We're happy to read meaningful feedback about veteran content difficulty, but we do require that all threads be constructive and in line with our forum Code of Conduct. Thank you.
