Fix it. Please.

There are more notes for quests than the actual gameplay. This is test server dudes, we are here to test combat, pvp, ballance etc. Not those stupid quests.

64-bit insta-crashing on Windows too.

My dxdiag.txt in any case.

I think Stam of all classes need more morphs to better distinguish themselves. I have a stam of every class and they all feel so similar except for night blades. They in general lack the utility and class identity that magic does. I understand and don't expect him to be the same, but magic is not tied down to weapon skills as much as stamina is or to the degree that stamina is. It is a bit ridiculous and leads to very similar and slightly boring gameplay between classes which puts a huge damper on class identity.

64 bits insta-crash on Windows here too.

Lettigall

64 bits, crashed after 5 mins.

Try downloading the latest Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package and see if that helps. You can find it here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=14632

Reduced the drop rate of Mercenary Motif chapters. They will now drop approximately one-fourth as often as they did previously from any given rank of Undaunted chests.

Thank you! A nerf I can love!

Win10 come with a newer version or at least updates to that automatically. It seems to not work for anyone with Win10 and maybe 8. Do you at ZOS don't have any Win8 or 10 machines?

Can't start eso64.exe.I installed the latest Visual C++ but it didn't help.

@ZOS_GinaBruno

Are you allowed to disclose if the new alliance motifs should be dropping from Cyrodiil treasure maps as well? Have done a little over 20 on PTS and no motifs.

Little confused, Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 isn't latest. Is this the version that works better for ESO 64-bit client? Don't want to downgrade.

Adhazabi Aba-daro the Golden will now only appear on the weekends. She will arrive at 00:00 UTC/GMT on Friday nights, and will pack up shop at 12:00 UTC/GMT on Mondays.

But is she wearing clothes now? :-)

rosy_ariete

Doesn't work for me either (Win10 + Visual C++ 2015)

RagnorTS

I've posted this before the patch and i still have the same bug so I feel I should post it again. As you can see in the sreenshots I've learned the motifs but not being able to craft them

MissBizz

Thieves Guild world bosses will now scale correctly in response to player participation.

I found that VERY intriguing. Is there a minimum "expected" player participation? Or could a single player take a world boss out?

When are you going to write "Natch Potes" for the header on these patches? We know you want to.

^ Also an extremely important question. Hah.

@ZOS_GinaBruno Thank you for all the work and attention that you put into the community. It's much appreciated.

Concerning the bug with water textures when there's rainfall on the ground (Mac) can we expect a fix for that on the PTS?

Also the issue that the character is stuck upon login (jumping is a current workaround) is being addressed?

@ZOS_GinaBruno
Any reason why I can't download the PTS anymore? It keeps saying a program is using it (which it's not) or it'll tell me I need to repair it (Which I already did).

Edit: after restarting my PC it worked.

Likewise.

Mac client here and I get a repair prompt instead of update.

EDIT: After force quitting the launcher and restarting, it is now updating.

Wrong thread, please ignore.

64-bit Client Doesn't work for me either (Win10 + Visual C++ 2015). Doesn't really even attempt to load. I lowered all firewalls and virus as a test. No affect. I'm jealous of everyone else as they at least get it to crash for them. ;-(

same here.
double click the exe - nothing happens.

Thanks all, we're looking into the 64-bit client issues now. Much of the discussion is happening over here, just FYI: http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/245036/official-feedback-thread-for-64-bit-client#latest

64 client won't do anything.

windows 10, installed the (downgrade idk) microsoft visual thing version mentioned earlier on this thread.
still didn't work.
The process won't even start.

General

• /bug is still not functioning, and we encourage you to continue using this thread to submit your bug reports. Don’t forget to check out this thread as well, stickied at the top of this forum, which links to all the official feedback discussion threads.

Does this mean everything I reported via /bug so far wasn't read by anyone?

looks like the changes we got last week will be here to stay until it goes live

We'll be making some balance changes to abilities in the next incremental (next week) to address some feedback we've seen, and plan on making a forum thread about it in the next day or so you loop you guys in.

Looking forward to them.

Same as most here... 64-bit Client exits immediately. (Win10 + Visual Studio 2015 installed)

SarcB

rip win10 users for now

AFAIK, the different redistributable packages can be installed along side other versions. When you run an EXE it will grab whichever one it was compiled to work with.

So you've decided to play your sorc and ditch your Templar eh? XD

The things I want addressed are not things I think they can code in a week or two, sadly. I'm always willing to be pleasantly surprised though.
