Shout Out to Role Players - Humanitarian Effort

In less than eight weeks, we are going to have a huge influx of refugees from Cold Harbour landing on our shores. I think I can safely say we have all been there. I want to bring a suggestion - that we welcome these survivors and let them know what a wonderful place Tamriel is. Let them know they have arrived in a supporting, helpful community. We welcome them, we want them to enjoy their time here and we hope they will choose to call this home.

Possible ways to help:

Spend a few minutes walking around the areas just saying Hi! (Don't be creepy - you know who you are)

Answer questions. I remember crafting was a bit overwhelming at first and appreciated those who answered my silly questions. Although, at the time I didn't think they were silly at all. I know better now. Apologies.

If it fits within your budget, perhaps make some food or drink or clean clothes to hand out. Use up those old mats and that crap... err, I mean that wonderful stuff your hireling sends.

What else do you think we could do?

Let's own this.

    Just don't be too pushy. IMHO, more than half the fun of these games is figuring stuff out for yourself.

    Sure, go ahead and answer questions in zone chat etc, but don't stand outside the game entrance throwing legendary gear at people and spamming them with party and guild invites.

    Personally, there's nothing worse than being given great gear right off the bat, then following someone around and watching them one-shot everything for me.

    Just my 2c.

    Console players will be on their own servers, not mixed in with the PC players.

    OP, good of you to think of that *tips hat

    Link please with that info, thank you.

    Also, if above is true, what makes you think there will be some sort of significant pc player influx?

    PC player influx will be in large part due to those who bought the game at launch but didn't continue to sub for various reasons.

    It has long been understood that consoles have their own megaservers. As reiterated in the last ESO Live announcement.

    Follow me if I advance, Kill me if I retreat, Avenge me if I die.

    When this immediate evil power has been defeated, we shall not yet have won the long battle with the elemental barbarities. Another evil, it may be an invisible adversary, will attempt, again, and yet again, to destroy our frail civilization. Is it true, I wonder, that the only way to escape a war is to be in it?

    If I die, you are forgiven, If I live, I will kill you.

    And they are unlikely to spend anything anyways when and if they come back.

    Can I please get a link to that live announcement and rough timing where separate console megaserver was implied?

    The game is going B2P. People are lining up to try it now, go to any MMO or TES-related website and see for yourself. How long they'll stay with the game is anybody's guess, but at least for the first few months we'll have tons of new players on PC.

    Those are mostly those that bought it at the release and then left though. Very few are new-new, plus the game really has a bad rep and B2P transition isn't helping, just an observation.

    Probably started this too soon. There is a newer 'welcome new players' thread that went in the right direction. Check it out.
