You need to stop this 2 week later thing for Xbox One and PS4. As soon as you release it PC gets a better version through a patch and we get broken stuff all over the place on the console version. Seriously, don't release it until a PC patch is also in the release for the X1/PS4.

Don't look at it as "PC" Getting it early look at it as "PC" Beta testing for you to have a smooth and fixed release.


Also why is this one 3000 when IC was 2500 crowns?

Yeah only none of the bugs found on pc will be fixed by the time it releases and we have to wait on that too

LFG improvements – cross-alliance dungeons

I don't suppose they'll include Trials under that cross-alliance dungeon banner?

AmakarGranaen

Amazing news!

but...

what about WEAPON dyeing? ? ? ? ? ? ?


So if it goes like this...

Gandalf: You may dye thy shields.
Gimli: And my axe!

then what will Gandalf answer?!?!

People complained bitterly that they had to buy 3000 crowns in order to get a DLC that only cost 2500 crowns, and some of us warned them to be careful what they asked for as it was utterly predictable that the response from ZOS would be to raise the price of any future DLC rather than lower the crown increments. Sure enough the complainers have indeed ended up with what they asked for, equalisation between crown increments and DLC prices.

Because IC was half the size?

Finally!!!! some end game content for solo players, I'm starting tear up give me a minute.

Wizzo91

Sounds really great and this early? I'm really surprised.

There are two options though... They have been working on this for a while, or they rushed the new content because they need the money from DLC badly.

slumber_sandb16_ESO

ZOS.

My money.

Take it.

Take it all!

We KNOW they've been working on it for a while. But I will note that doesn't stop them from ALSO rushing it out sooner than initially planned for a cash influx. Hopefully not.

Special harvest nodes that scale to the most advanced material type your character can use for crafting

As expected

VR15-16 mats price drop in 3..2..1..

Slylok

Nice! I didnt do PTS for IC since I rarely PvP but I am hopping on PTS as soon as I can for this one.

It's ridiculous how shield dyeing wasn't added at the start who wants to walk around with an ugly color shield and at this point they should have just added weapon dyes too that way your blade can match too.

nimander99

I wish I could just hibernate until the 2nd!

Armor dyeing wasn't there at the start. Jeez. People are finally getting shield dying. Cheer up, will you?

They have been working on it for a while. I think they aren't rushing it because they said it would be released before 2016. If it wasn't ready they still had at least another month but they chose not too.

Emma_Overload

I like everything I've seen and read so far. Finally, solo players will be getting some endgame content.

I really like the look of Ancient Orc armor, too, and I can't wait to die my shields!

This will be a big success for ZOS.

I dont understand it either... 3000 crowns = $25 = Price of IC = 500 extra Crowns = You got a deal.

Its also possible that it is bigger. Wouldn't be surprised if they jumped on the opportunity to bump the price up either since people were complaining like you said. Doesn't affect me anyways since I'm ESO plus though.

Anyone have a link to where this is on the ESOTU map of Tamriel?

My wall printout of the standard ESO map doesn't have enough detail to show where that mountain range is.

It's the bay area north of Stormhaven and Bangkorai, essentially the area between the Daggerfall Covenant and the Western Kingdom of Skyrim.

They probably worked on both updates in parallel, considering they probably want to get fixes out before Christmas rather than delaying the fixes or dropping Christmas. Think about it.

@ZOS_JasonLeavey This page http://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-gb/dlc/orsinium is linked from the article but isn't working for me; is that page up yet?

Cadbury

Looks like there are two games to get hyped over for November (Well, technically one is a dlc but whatevs)

Well done Zenimax/Bethesda

silentstoner

Woo winter wonder land hope it goes smoothly looks like a badass dlc

ZOS_JasonLeavey

@Enodoc, sure is! Which browser/OS are you using? We can look into it. Might be a cache issue.

Aimora

Please add a duo option for the arena - would love to do this with my questing partner

For what it's worth, I tried accessing that page on both Chrome and Firefox (Windows 8.1) and neither worked, even after clearing the cache.

However when I accessed the /en-us/ page via US VPN it worked just fine, so maybe it's just propagating.

An Arena to test my own abilities, and compare against all others!!?? TAKE MY MONEYYY!!!

@ZOS_JasonLeavey I'm using Windows 8.1 and IE11, but it's the same on Firefox 39 which I never use, so that can't be a cache issue. Just to clarify, I'm talking about the DLC details page at http://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-gb/dlc/orsinium and not the article at http://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-gb/news/post/2015/10/05/orsinium-launch-details-and-new-video, which is working fine.

Marrtha

This looks amazing! Not to mention it seems they actually listened to the community input. Much more hyped about this one than I was/am about IC.
No pvp, and amazing open world which doesn't seem to revolve around grinding. *mesmerized*
Great job guys and keep it up! And thank you for all the amazing work C:
