We were told in the last ESO Live that 'The Road Ahead' would be out the week after Thanksgiving. Today is Tuesday. All we have seen is an article about crafting writs. Yes, I am getting impatient. Everyone else has been back to normal for a few days and ZOS seems to still be on vacation. Since we have not seen patch 1.6 on the pts, at least give us the road ahead, not a looking back at the past year so we the players have something to look forward.

    "Here in his shrine, that they have forgotten. Here do we toil, that we might remember. By night we reclaim, what by day was stolen. Far from ourselves, he grows ever near to us. Our eyes once were blinded, now through him do we see. Our hands once were idle, now through them does he speak. And when the world shall listen, and when the world shall see, and when the world remembers, that world will cease to be. - Miraak

    I believe The Road Ahead is always posted the day after the PTS is updated with the latest patch, apparently not this week. Hopefully next week or it looks like there will be no chance for 1.6 before the New Year.

    I have to agree in a way. I am getting impatient because I think update 6 will change the game, for the better hopefully. I hate that we know very little about what is going in this "huge" update that is "two" updates big. Okay... if it's so big why not let us know? They haven't released a promo video of it yet, no The Road Ahead, not even in the last ESO Live did they tell us what was going in Update 6. We know classes and guild skills are getting overhauled but what else is getting overhauled/fixed? *cough*Cyrodiilsmajorlag*cough*. Imperial City? 4 v 4? Provisioning? Mounts? Jewelrycrafting? Justice System? Give us some hope ZOS.

    We are not getting update 6 or the Champion System before the first of the year. Simple as that.

    If they did somehow release it by then, it would be a barely-tested train wreck.

    If you still believe 1.6 comes in 2014 then I don't know ;)

    We have explained multiple times why this isn't smart, a good idea or clever in any way.

    The second week of 2015 is still the best guess, no gaming company would release an update during or shortly before holiday days. Even Santa wont be able to fix ESO when it goes tilt on the 25th due a new patch, so they will wait til 2015.

    To expand on my previous post. They should put Update 6 in the PTS for longer than usual but PTS also remains a ghost town so I am not sure if that would help. I hope ZOS still does that, but with all the issues in PvP with extremely frustrating lag making a lot of people either cancel subs or take a break I do believe that ZOS needs to release information about Update 6, preferably with information on major bug fixes. Doing so would probably make those who walked away or cancelled and those of us (me) who are just frustrated but sticking around something to think about and look forward to.

    We don't like secrets ! We like loot.. and information!!

    .. And making the zones looking all white, by exploring and finishing quests.

    Like Winter-something dolmen in Cyrodiil. Had to take it 4 times due to bug, and couldn't finish it. And another area in Cyrodiil That cannot be explored. Its one of those eyes on the west side of the lake.
    .. And the quests in craglorn that never will be finished due to poor grouping meta.
    Sry what was the post about again?

    They don't give us any info or trailers etc, because patch is still work in progress, probably they just don't know what will be ready for estimated release date and what not...

    What kills me is that December 15th is exactly 6 weeks from the last patch, but I don't see that happening if they don't start moving along with the info..

    The problem with the PTS is that everyone who used to go on it has lost faith, all the recent bugs brought in by patches had already been reported on the PTS. If you put the effort into find bugs and issues and ZOS takes no notice, why bother testing!

    Erm hold on a minute????
    It’s also important to note that the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions of ESO are not just ports of the PC/Mac game. We have completely replaced the PC user interface with a console-specific UI designed from the ground-up with a controller and a living room play experience in mind. We’ve also added voice chat and full integration with XBL and PSN. Expect to see lots of news about our console versions in early 2015.

    What the hell is the UI we have to put up with on the PC version then if not a console interface????
    Being First is not the prize, it just mean's everyone can stab you in the back.

    It's the UI they designed for the PC and all you people where just as wrong as you where before.
