Intrusive block icon when blocking?

Tapio75

You know the image of shield that has traditionally been shown when NPC is blocking? Why did they add it to plsayer characters? Its ugly as heck and intrusive too, small detail but it annoys me each time i block and i do it a lot.

Cant they do something well for a change? If somebody wanted thgis, fine, but there needs to be toggle for any stuff that is intrusive this way.

Though it might be bug and i hoåpe it is.

Uum, I think you should use "search" before making a new thread. The same thing over and over again is useless.

It's "working as intended"; it isn't a bug. I'm not in love with it, either.

Tapio75

They really need to learn word "Toggle" for these things -.-

I know right! I wanted the option to remove it from enemies, I have no need for it and its ugly and immersion breaking.

And now they have forced this *** on my character too...Wow zos just...wow.

You devs are lucky that I have nowhere else to go, TES and ESO are my passion (in terms of games) and ZOS are slowly killing it.

The overwhelming majority of players don't like it but ZOS continues to ignore us as usual.

I like it.

Took me less than an hour to get used to it, i don't even notice it anymore ...

New health bars are still incredibly ugly.

I don't remember anyone asking for this feature, so not sure why they added it.

I would like a response too. Perhaps they will address this on Live if someone asks.

Tapio75

Yeah, i would like to know reasoning behind this thing.. I also wanted to remove this pone from enemies too as i also have combat cues off but they did the opposite -.-

I'll play the heretic here just to *** people off and get buried with pointy rocks: I LIKED! XD

Recremen

Yeah I'm pretty sure the number of people who like, want, or appreciate that feature is as close to zero as possible.

I took a time to log into Tamriel after the update to check how things were going - next thing was this awful intrusive shield that can't be removed at all. Logged off instantly. A few days later(today) logged back to see how the 64bit is running: realised there was this shield icon that can't be removed. Logged off and came here to look for a way to remove it.

You know you are playing the wrong game when every new "feature" annoys you close to forgetting about this game forever.

Not every feature is dictated by player demand. On topic I honestly don't mind it.

Intrusive? I like it.

I really really wish they would let me be able to toggle all of the battle indicators off.
Shields
Slow
Etc

Indeed, and ESO right now does a good job letting us toggle on/off and setting the alpha level of many interface information - this is very welcome, thank you - but no toggle or anything is really weird, also the icon is absurdly ugly and unnecessary. Looks like something took straight out of a concept board and put into the game without mastering it a single bit.
