Re: Last Gen Consoles Holding the Game Back - An Idea For Dropping Them
queenlarxene wrote: »I get where you're coming from about older hardware potentially holding back game features and that old consoles will likely have to be dropped at some point. But the idea that it's possible for them to simultaneously run two sets of servers, one for the game as it is now for older devices to use, one that would continue receiving updates and new content for newer devices seems... I dunno, just really unrealistic?
Like, they barely have the people and hardware resources to run the game as it is now, what makes anyone think that Microsoft is going to allow the significant time and cost associated with setting this up? Just think about the logistics involved for a minute and consider the viability.
This is a case where the will of the devs < the will of Microsoft < the will of investors < MONEY.
The will of the players to have any power must influence the top factor BUT only in a way that pushes investors in a direction that Microsoft sees as beneficial for their pockets. Begging devs won't change anything. Abandoning the game will take to "videogames' natural selection".
I often see the joking comment "Zos servers' hamsters are dead" - WE are the hamsters; how much are we still willing to run? Personally, I'm gonna die on this wheel.
Re: Swimming horses
why add a penalty to a widely loved Quality of Life change that was wanted for years?
It makes no sense that a horse can gallop through water at full speed. Unrealistic and inconsistent with the unmounted behavior.

Re: Ball Groups Ruin PVP
This is the reason why GH pop is declining. EP primarily hangs out at Arrius during primetime as they just don't want to deal with either ball grps or the smaller sweat grps. The guys that love the current GH mechanics are the vocal minority, I hope Vengeance comes back soon.

Can we fix the ticket system so you can get partial tickets?
Sorry but this is just plain annoying and a huge pain point that you cant get tickets to fill up to 12 if the nr missing isnt the exact nr you are receiving - every time i have to do this weird dance with buying nonsense i dont need just to be able to get to 12 in the end... if im at 10, i should be able to receive 3, it should ask me "are you ok with loosing out on 1 ticket" and then just fill up to 12...

IF this were true then WHY would players be leaving beyond the normal fluctuations that happen in MMO's? There must be reasons, and addressing those reasons would be the only solution.
Yes, soooo many threads... And all of them true.
The numbers don't lie and don't care about feelings.
If all of them were true the game would have been shut down by now. And I never said a thing about feelings.
Re: My Perception Of The Pure Class Refresh
the main issue remains imo that
A) zos after 10 years still doesnt know where to go with the game
B.) The population is way to diverse and fractured to agree on something - a wise game developer once said you should always listen to players on where the issues are but never on how to fix them
C) zos moves at a snails pace and i just dont think the game has another 2-3 years to address the issues... my gut tells me 2026 will be the do or die year for the game...

These suggestions came up from all kinds of people since housing was implemented; there were threads about this in the main forum all the time. The ability to use beds (and maybe gain a little xp buff for it) was one that came up very often, as well as having harvestable plants for alchemy. So it's not just the exclusive endgame housing community that asked for these functions, but many more people. Still, ZOS hasn't reacted on it yet.
Also, I don't have the impression that OP wants to become part of a bigger more specialized community with visitors and competitions. Some people just want to use their house to roleplay with it a bit themselves, or with a few friends at most.
I just think that a lot of the housing systems potential is not used
I stopped buying houses a long time ago because I am not someone of the housing community who just wants to have houses to decorate them - i need to have a reason to go there, do something but would love that to be the case, to HAVE a reason...and I think if they expanded on what you can do with houses they would sell a lot more of them to people outside the housing community...
