Are you please with the upcoming changes to ESO

Maximis_ESO

After the panel at Quakecon we got tons of new information about ESO. Many amazing changes coming.... new zones and new races, new AA systems etc.

Are you pleased? Vote now!

Maximis_ESO

Yes

I'm unable to fix the title mistakes for some reason. I apologize for that.

Blackwidow

Yes

I'm going to say yes, in general it's very positive.

Is there anything in particular you were wanting to talk about?

Nope, I was just looking to see if the general population was either pleased or not pleased. Discuss any top you would like

Mr.Turtlesworth

Yes

If they came out with all those updates ( plus the dog ) today. I wouldn't have any complaints about the game.

hehe, as cool as that would be it would be a disaster as most of the products are not finished but most of them are looking very close.

Elad13

No

I voted no because there was not a maybe option.....I really like some of the things, but other things seem confusing to me....
here is an example:
A guy on the panel said that "we know people really like leveling up their character and then going into other factions". I'm not sure this is true because most of what i have seen people really don't like to break out of their faction to finish vet leveling.

Another thing i didn't like is to me it seemed like everything was all cinematic sweeps...which to me sorta felt that these things could be YEARS down the road....on top of that they were clear to say "these things are not set and could change"..."we don't want to commit to a date/time".

Overall i thought there was some really cool things, and it seems that spellcrafting will be available to everyone...so YES it is cool, but while somethings are starting soon it really felt that other aspects (even someone mentioning update 5) before we can expect to see most of these to even start coming around.

so I am on the fence...was this just some big HYPE parade to try to sway people to join now (and combat a large negative vibe that is forming) and sub until the changes actually happen? Are these things that we will see in the next few months? OR the next 2 years?

SO most of this still leaves me with questions and a wait and see feeling.

Brittany_Joy

Yes

Yep, everything just seems cool. Better facial and combat animations. The spellcrafting looks great and encourages exploration. The champion system and justice system look great and will be tons of fun.

Well I meant hypothetically. The point I was trying to make was after all these updates, it will pretty much be a perfect game. ( of course there are problems they CANT fix. For example, an open sandbox mmo would be nice but there's no way they would be able to do this with the way the mmo works. They could do some things to make it more sandbox..ish, for example, boats in the game would be amazing. And the justice system is a step in the right direction )

No underwater swimming.

Sindala

Yes

If I could have voted Yes x100 I would have.
That's all we need to keep people happy, information.
If we know what is coming then we are happy to wait

It's the not knowing and lack of interaction that causes the forums to turn toxic.

Enkil

Yes

You forgot the Super Stoked!!! option.

There is no "under water" in ESO. I've glitched below the water surface several times and there is absolutely nothing down there.
In fact, there's not even water down there.

You can just walk for hours without drowning.
Also, you can walk under deep water without ever getting attacked by slaughterfish, which allows you to just walk off the map completely.

The game has no logic what-so-ever with regards to anything "under water" ...
;-)

You are preaching to the choir.

If they get it out in a timely manner, I'm pleased.

Well that was really some stuff that will not show until 2015.
If we look at this year, that the coming Updates could be:

August: Update 3: Guildfeature + Set Redesigns
September: Update 4: Craglorn Part 3
Oktober: Update 5: City of Ash
November: Update 6 Craglorn Part 4 or Imp. City
December: No Update
January: Update 7 Craglorn Part 4 or Imp. City

All other Stuff they showed wouldn`t I suspect to come in this year. Maybe the faceFx, like they always put grafic advancement in Updates as soon as they are ready, but meantioning it still need month to go, I don't expect it until End of Year / Eearly next year.

Blackwidow

Yes

I'm really looking forward to 2018, when all this stuff is in the game.

NadiusMaximus

Yes

They need more caves and underwater grotto , the lack of exploration kills me in this tes game. It's pretty as all hell, but I go places by the coast thinking there should be an entrench here and find a rock. Then I get killed by a swarm of mud crabs

No underwater swimming.

Doesn't mean there can't be boats I'm not talking boat combat.. I'm taking about fishing and stuff.. Just for fun. That would be epic.

Laura

Yes

I'm agreeing with people I normally don't.

Prospects look good and there are a flood of new players in the newbie zones.

MercyKilling

No

I voted no because there's no middle of the road option. There's some stuff I do like, but other stuff I don't. I'm copy/pasting my post from the thread that has the YouTube video in it to here for clarity.

Hrm. I'm mildly impressed with some things, excited about others and completely disinterested in others.

PvP- Meh. Not something I've liked for some time in -any- MMORPG. Completely disinterested.

Grouping fixes are VERY GOOD. Much interest to see how things develop.
Dungeon scaling is something that's been sorely needed, both solo and group. Personally, I've not been able to complete the 4 man dungeons for levels. Had no problems whatsoever with the 12-15 level range ones, but the next two level tiers of dungeons I've not been able to complete. Haven't done any beyond 32, as that's the highest level character I've got. Glad to hear they'll scale.

COMPLETELY DISGUSTED with the upcoming addition of "dailies". This was something that was missing that wasn't really needed, IMHO.

Craglorn: meh. Not interested in it now, not interested in it in the future, most likely. Won't be enticed, either.

Trials: meh. Didn't like speed runs in other MMO's, don't want to participate here.

Facial animations, good. More immersion is always a good thing. Makes the game more fun.

Vet system change/upgrade: Meh. I'm personally tired of gear grinding and vertical progression. I've actually hated gear grinding for several years now.


Justice system? I predict this being abused and possibly even being used to grief other people. Not thrilled.

Spellcrafting seems to be just another thing to grind. I hate grinding, but I like the idea behind spellcrafting. I'm ambivalent about this.

Combat animations/adjustments are good. Always nice to have animations playing properly and synching up. The only minor concern I have with increased particle effects is that people on lower end systems might suffer. Improvements should be usable/viewable by everyone, IMHO.

New weapons and armor motifs/designs? HOLY CARP. I'm looking forward to seeing them, and I hope they don't change overmuch from what I saw in the video.

dsalter

Yes

i likey but i don't likey the direction that spellcrafting is going, sounds like some really broken builds are going to come from it without massive test sessions and the sewer entrance to the imperial city sounds like it'll be comped like hell

Ghenra

Yes

Yes, but if they release it fast, before October.

Sadly it's impossible all of Quake con annoucement are in Project state.
Only the VR system is on the way but we're only in phase 1 and phase 2 will be for 1.3 and phase 3 for 1.4 then for 1.5 they will begin the phase 1 of the next project maybe Impérial city ... We'll mostly have to wait at least 6-8 month to have a great part of all project in the game.

I am interested in the upcoming PROMISES, HINTS and EXPLANATIONS.

I will be HAPPY if even a quarter make it in, make it in on time, work, get patched to work after being put in and communication proceeds rather than vague generalizations. Might wait to see, might not. Other issues STILL ongoing. Good summertime presentation though!

Not all at what I was hoping for.

I want the exploration to be grander. Underwater needs to be explored like a TES game should be.

isengrimb16_ESO

Most of them. But I'm iffy on the justice system now, if it restricts free world looting.

It should have been left restricted to pickpocketing/murdering fluff NPCs.

Not looking forward to clicking on a crate and seeing a big red "STEAL" on some honeycomb.

kevlarto_ESO

Yes

I like what I read, sounds like they have a bold outlook for the future, guess the game is not suffereing from all the gloom and doom, the haters would have you believe, other wise they would not be talking about all these up coming things.
Looking forward to seeing how it plays out..:)
