Vampire/Werewolf Bite and the issues with it(PS4/Xb1)

This whole thing is crazy. I'm of the mind that something really needs to be done about this whole thing. Truth be told the system out now is just too messed up. Its practically impossible to get a bite due to people who camp and kill the werewolves that due pop up. There needs to be a better way to contract the disease. Such as having the process moved to a quest that can unlock at lvl 50. Or change it so that its a probability chance from fighting high lvl werewolves and vamps of any kind. Because the set up today is just well wrong at least for us on PS4/Xb1. There are far too many scams and being reduced to having to beg on forums isn't much of a help either. Its really sad that this is how the system works.

    I agree. I have always played vampire. They really need to stop the players that camp spawns just to kill ww and blood fiends. Honestly. Should just add the dark brotherhood back and make the diseases assessible that way.

    I dissagree and I'll explain why.

    First of all, people scamming is wrong. ZoS has stated that they ban people for it, but you need to report them!

    For the second part I'll repeat what ZoS said a long time ago bout it. They are happy with how the disseases works and how they spread. They want it to be rare and "not for everyone". The reason is that it is not for everyone. Most people who want it, don't have a clue what it actually is. I bet 50% or more will be curing themselfes again. But most of all, it is NOT something you should persue in the first place, let alone so fanatical as some people are (camping the zones and the shrine, making a million threads etc). There is absolutly NO difference between being a vampire or werewolf now or in a month or two.

    Why is this important? Cause the people hyping up something un trivial, are actually causing the bad situation. The leachers, scammers and npc killers do it cause you are all there! If you wheren't there being all hyped up bout nothing, they wouldn't be there either.

    This same issues happened on the PC when it launched there. It lasted for 2 months. Now you can get a vampirebite or a werewolf bite so easily that it is ridiculious.

    I promise you ,the same will happen on the consoles. And within 1,5 months. The best way to speed it up is to stop hyping people and yourself, and enjoy the rest of the game.
    Through me you pass into the city of woe:
    Through me you pass into eternal pain:
    Through me among the people lost for aye.

    This will sort itself out in a few months, this was the same situation on the PC for the first 2 months. More or less word for word same post.

    Give it a couple of months and you will contract it by accident like I did....

    I think that because the problem even happens in the first place and that there needs to be threads "asking" for bites shows that it in itself is a problem. Even if its a man made creation, created by the over all hype of being such a thing. Personally I want it because its cool and because I was one in skyrim. Could care less about the whole aspect of it in the endgame, I just want it. That alone is enough. ZoS is happy about it because in the end it simply means they don't have to think about it as long as you think its ok for it to be like that.

    Sure it probably will die down, truth is we can only hope and people will move on to other games and stop scamming and camping spawns zones. But I think ZoS should look at the fact that it happened in the first place. The whole spawn system in itself is stupid because its the same spawn locations all the time. At least if it was different it'd be more of a "surprise" but its not. So that doesn't really factor into it.

    Anyways I look forward to this point in time where people will hopefully be able to get the disease if they want, without any of the annoying issues.

    They don't exactly spawn all the time though, there's a rather long cycle for times when they'll actually spawn.

    Personally i like randomly transforming into a werewolf, also the stamina regen is useful for me as i'm a stamina character.

    The different between now and 2 months, is a maxed skill tree, max passive bonus, and the fact is brightens up fighting for me in general.

    Also 2 months of not having it is 2 months of not having the boosts.

    I guess it's time for a dose of reality;
    Console players are NOT beautiful, unique snowflakes.

    PC players dealt with the same issues at release. Nothing was changed. Stop expecting special consideration.
    To reemphasize: CONSOLE PLAYERS AREN'T SPECIAL.
    I'm not prejudiced; I hate everyone equally !
