ESO Live - Ask Us Anything!

Could you give us ps4 users some help with communication? I know you said on the show the other day you would look into adding a looking for group emote to join groups and then mentioned about how PC could send whispers shortly after. I would love to hear about a text chat for ps4 as it is a tedious task to get things done by finding people to stand in front of trying to communicate with emotes. I love the game so much but I have stated before in other posts on ps4 I feel like I am a caveman trying to invent a wheel to communicate with other players.

Being a member of the ESO community, why can't Australians be part of the 1 million prize draw? Why discriminate? There is an option to select that country. I think its lame.

Is there going to be an option to change guild names? It would be really nice to be able just change the name rather than having to delete the guild and remake it.

No matter how many times this is asked the answer will always be the same: Australian Laws.

would a scroll or potion that you can by with gold that can change one morph to a ability so we don't have to go to the main city and not have to do them all

Most importantly, when will we get Cadwell's Pot as a costume? People will buy the hell out of it!

I like the idea of getting a pot, maybe a frying pan instead so we can be his estranged cousin?

I know we've had sound designers on ESO Live but what about some of the voice actors? I know some have voiced multiple NPCS and it would be interesting to hear their process.

When the the game first came out, we're there any consideration for a 5th class? If so, what was it and what limited it's release?

We have forum posts tracking some active bug posts and it's pretty useful, is it possible well have ZOS made tracker so we know what bugs are on your radar or may not on your radar? It's hard to track some things and I constantly ask folks "oh, did they fix that yet?"

Thanks.

Have ZOS ever thought about adding in another class, or adding in morphs that could make the current classes more fun & useful?

AuA Q&A from last 2 shows?

One of the Lives, either the one before the most recent or the 1 before that, had them talk of the voice recording process and stuff for Orsinium.

I remember part of that, but I don't think they had a voice actor on, just directors?

No they had the woman that voiced King Kurog's Mother on the show. They talked about how she did the poses and stuff and how/why she was chosen to voice her. I'm a bit fuzzy on all the details since it was awhile back lol but it did happen.

Skayaq

There was a fifth class early in beta. Why was it removed and is there a chance it will come back?

UltimaJoe777

To those asking about whether another class will be added or not I cannot say for certain but I seem to recall them saying a new class will not be added. You may peruse through the 12/4 ESO Live to check because I think it was mentioned there but I cannot recall for certain, thus the reason why I have not said this sooner lol

EDIT: Sorry I was mistaken. The last Live AUA segment basically confirmed there would be no class CHANGING but that alone says there will probably be no new classes since existing characters would be unable to switch or anything.

I know when I saw John Cleese on RT w/BM I thought "hey, is he gonna mention he did ESO?"

You did an "Armchair Developer" segment a while ago on underwater exploration and combat. Would you consider doing another "Armchair Developer" feature on flying mounts?

Have you ever wished your favorite MMO would implement a certain feature? “Why don’t they do X, it can’t be that difficult!?” is certainly a thought that has come to a lot of minds. It’s a wish we often hear on these forums, too.

In a new segment in our biweekly Twitch show ESO Live called “The Armchair Developer,” we want to take a closer look at these feature requests, explore the pros and cons of implementing them and all the work involved – from concept and artwork, to building and balancing, all the way to the live patch.

This segment can include topics like new weapons (spear, unarmed combat), new emotes, scripted events such as weddings, housing, dying weapons or costumes, new siege weapons (remember the trailer!), new motifs, arenas, dueling, or even a new playable race. Please be aware that all topics discussed are a theoretical exercise only and no indication or guarantee that the feature will be implemented to the game.

Have you ever wondered what it takes to implement one of the above? Do you have a personal feature request? Let us know! We are looking for the first topic for this week’s show when we ask our Armchair Developer the dangerous question: “Wouldn’t it be nice to have...?"

Here's the only instance of that segment so far, from Episode 17 (starts at 1:10:47)

What being done about disappearing bankers? Ever since they began moving around in the bank, people are force to re-login to see the banker Npc.

As per this thread
http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/234852/why-when-you-are-doing-a-solo-quest-is-all-of-the-loot-already-taken#latest

Why do (most) solo instances have interactable containers that are empty? Talking main quest etc. it seems that if you go on a quest and the first couple containers are empty - EVERY container will be. Is this specific quests? If so, why? Or just bad RNG? If so, can the RNG fairy please be nicer to us?

If you feel like answering BEFORE the next ESO Live (next year) that would be great

HeroOfNone

Given the changes with group finder, is it possible in the future to add in a "pledge" category, to simplify the searching and allow it to auto swap from gold to silver depending on the daily pledge? Currently we're stuck in a mode if we queue for either.

I haven't had this issue not once. Is this on PC?

Kyuumu

Yes it is on PC too. The one in Glenumbra is constantly disappearing on me, and the only way to get her to come back is to relog. In those moments when she is gone I know other people can see her because they are still stranding there as though they are talking to her. I even read on another thread someone saying to point your cursor at the corner and you should be able to interact with her even though you can't see her. However that has not worked for me. I literally have to see her for interaction to commence and I have to relog to see her.

Well here it goes, when will dueling be added? Many players want this feature to practice with friends before trying out a respec and getting zerged in cyrodiil, settle rivalry and have an overall fun. This is something that should've been added a long time ago and there hasnt been any reply as to why you havent or arent going to, so... when will it be added?

This is coming, but not anytime in the near future.

This thread is for questions that may or may not be featured and answered in the Ask Us Anything segment of ESO Live. Unfortunately the next Live is January so a question for something that will occur in the next few days or so will not be answered here lol
