ZOS_GinaBruno

This is the official discussion thread for the blog article ESO Heads to E3. Let us know what you thought of the trailer, and be sure to stop by the booth and say hello if you'll be attending E3!

Awesome video that clearly shows how beautiful this game really is. Nicely done!

huginot

Yes that video looks incredible. I'm set to ultra everything in game, but I don't look this good.

More than any other game, The Elder Scrolls music is what really makes these exciting videos epic for me; it makes me feel like I'm epic when I'm playing (even though I'm not really) and makes me want to drop everything and get right back to the game. And that's what it's supposed to do, right? It stays in my head and when I'm somewhere else I start thinking about my "other life" and what I need to do there. Looking forward to your E3 presentation.

All this footage is just recycled from all of the old trailers/videos... Seems lazy.

Unfortunately Zenimax that is all it is, it in no way reflects the quality of the game !



If you guys ever go into the animated movie business I promise you I'll buy your stuff, its fantastic. However when you release a video that will be shown at something as prestigious as E3 have the courage to be honest.
Show a video showing all the broken classes, the endless botts and gold selling spam. Give the E3 attendees a taste of the endless downtimes, constant nerfs or the plethora of complaints here on the forums.

Hype like this might be good for keeping the suits happy as they grasp at our cash with their grubby little hands but we know the truth.
As a side note, just how many man-hours went into making this E3 spectacle ? Would be any chance those hours have been better spent fixing and refining 'OUR' game ! ! !

Phantax

lol my thread got many posts, this one got...lol
Pity another thread gets closed just because Zenimax don't like the truth !

Nothing at all wrong with the video, it accurately portrays both the current veteran and Cyrodiil gameplay. 3 people with nobody else around in veteran zones (besides Craglorn), and a rolling zerg in Cyrodiil being the only way to accomplish anything besides the solo quests/delves is a fitting way to advertise the game's content as it stands today.

LOL-ed at "Join Your Friends"

Watching the video makes me feel nostalgic, as if I've done everything in ESO and it's all a memory now. I guess it's partially because of the old footage?

Time to move on and "Live Another Life"?

NO.

Please announce something cool at E3. The 4th June Road Ahead just doesn't have the hype. I hope to see announcement for Thieves and the Brotherhood at E3, I don't care if it's September, an announcement will do.

Clearly the people making the videos are not the same who work on fixes. And "endless downtimes" are a bit of an exaggeratng too.

And the complaints on forums? Please visit any forum of any game and see if it is not full of complaints, they are always full of "nerf this, buff that, give this, change that" stuff.

Nice vid, wish i could be in E3 to see all the announcements first hand.

the.dzeneralb16_ESO

You guys are absolutely right...they should show off all the bugs and issues, instead of the good parts of the game.

Grow up. This video is cool, It would've been awesome if they added some screenshots from large battles in cyro or in populated cities

Sorry, this game is awesome.

Lol you must be joking. I see people all over.

Beautiful video for a beautiful game!

DonKiller

Great Video.

BUT we do not play with the Video, the combat needs many more changes.
And EU Server needs a transfer in EU.
And Swap Weapon needs more priority.
And...
...but
Great Video.

redwoodtreesprite

Video is beautiful and makes me feel sad.

Game isn't worth playing right now, but the world is so beautiful. The designers made a world so wonderful, but the actual gameplay is not so wonderful...

Enkshar

Nice video, it shows what ESO wants to be but thats not happening soon, maybe in 6-12 months.

robertlive2014

Great video! There is no shortage of artistic talent on the ZOS team.

Tarwin

Wish I was at E3 . I watched the Xbox One thing this morning and no mention of ESO? Is that because it's not exclusive?

megonna2000

great video, just wished they put that much effort into the game and fix the damn interface lag, and the major lag you get in PvP im almost at the point where I'm going to leave and come back in afew months time, in pvp with 100's off players i can understand, but the interface lag is just killing the game for me, I'm sure most of you feel the same, good hunting all

Soliduparrow

Are you guys going to announce free to play at E3? I do not even see a reason to go if you arent because everyone already knows about this game.

sovreign

wow, popular thread this one, is this the entire ESO community in here?

I am honestly sorry that you feel that way.

Primarily this is because I have been having a superb time in this game since the first hour of early access until I, again, played too late last night and ended up cutting back on sleep so I could play "just one more hour". It makes me sad to hear that other people aren't having as much fun as I, and many of my guildmates, are having.

The people on the forums who are complaining "this game sucks", or "Go free to Play already"are the LOUD few whining about this and that and they are not the representatives of the entire community in any way. This game is awesome, its not Skyrim but if I wanted Skyrim id play Skyrim, i'm playing ESO because I want to play with tons of other people and have fun, adventure together and roleplay among other things.

Pay for Roleplay, is not the right way.

A wise man once told me that a good way to measure your success is to count your haters, the more you have the better you are doing.

Would like to see more gms hunting bots and goldspammers, but bots and spammers reflect the community, not the game. This game rocks, keep it up zeni!

LeElohmb14_ESO

Seems to me the only people hating at the moment are bots. Change to free to play? What? So the bot influx can start again?
The only reason there was a problem working on content was because they had to kill the bot problem. The bot problem wouldn't be quite as bad had people on the forums talking about how the early island experience wasn't elder scrollsy enough.
A starter zone is a natural buffer for bots and mass spammers. But you know... you had a company actually listen to people. Then they had to spend much more time dealing with the repercussions rather than, for instance, making the thieves guild.

cuz_mike200

Does anyone know when the ESO presentation at E3 with be post on the website?

Breg_Magol

I love ESO. I think the video is representative and despite what I read on the forums, I see a steady influx of players every-time I'm online.

ESO has been improving steadily since I started with it from the beginning .. and I've only now achieved V1. There is so much here .. thank you Zenimax!

Brechador, dunmer NB .. stamina based, dual wield and bow .. I have to work at it, choose my battles, do the recon .. but that alone makes it worth the experience.
