    It's good. Read it, then watch Blade Runner 2019 and Blade Runner 2049. It's the best sci-fi ever.

    I've been reading a book instead lol, no reason to PvP and put myself through unnecessary stress if I don't have to.

    I fall asleep after one paragraph now. I'm an ADHD reader. Don't know how I got my college degree. lol

    I've been doing PVE with my new Wardens where I know I won't get gank'd while riding around. :)

    I have that condition too. I am still getting through it on my Kindle for my phone. Just read it before bed.

    for some reason in my head the image of those crows flying around while my black khajiit cat spins around with his steel tornado has got me happy :)

    i may end up putting a set on my stam blade, whom happens to be a vampire, just in the hopes i can get the crows to proc while using the bat swarm...

    you know you're a nerd when stuff like that seems like it would be super cool...

    not too bad so far...in on my AD mag warden...about 50k AP before my first death...

    it's a little frustrating having to ride your mount everywhere, but, it's playable...haven't really even seen much lag...

    the name of this game is "zerg up and don't die"...

    EP has cleverly taken advantage during this bit of turmoil to grab the lead with 22 days to go...

    waxlock is our red emp...it looks weird on the leaderboard...but, this is the present and forseeable future...next I'm sure I'll see madden in AD zone chat asking if anyone is looking for a group :)

    By waxlock you mean loweye the cheater dude deserves to get banned on this account to I have video of him exploiting to get into a keep by his ad friend letting him ambush in the door lol if it wasn't bad enough with the load screens this tard waxlock is emperor now I really don't want to play pvp vivec ps4 na has to be the worst pvp server on any platform that eso is on lol

    Oh yeah the AD emp for the last 6 months was such an upstanding guy. :p
    Looks like AD is night capping it's way back to the lead.

    Tbh everyone that normally has emp in vivec na has probably done something that's not great and it doesn't make it okay it's just I haven't seen any of them break any mechanics for my own self I guess I'll admit I was just a little salty cause I actually seen it happen when waxlock did it I've always heard from other people this person or that person is breaking mechanics to get by but it was always just speculation up until I witnessed it myself

    I know it's been suggested, and it would be a big undertaking, but with the population in Cyrodiil dwindling, I really hope ZOS combines EU and PS4 servers. I've been playing on EU server recently during NA prime time, which is EU's down time, and it's very much a ghost town so I skyshard hunt. And occasionally, I run into a 1v1 siege battle.

    Even Alik'r dolmen farming sometimes has no one, but me.

    Can't say I blame them. Today's update on the load screen issue seems to indicate a client-side fix is needed. We all know how long that will take. I'd be surprised if it's patched before December 1st. I can't believe how damaging this has been to console PvP, and how slow ZOS has been to react. By the time the load screens are behind us, I fear many will have left the game for good out of frustration. Such a shame.

    Hey everyone, short (but good) update for today: Looks like the fixes we're implementing have tentatively passed QA testing on our internal clients, so we're working on getting everything built out. We'll have some news for you early next week on when you can expect these fixes to go live and what happened to cause all this. For now, if you aren't already, you can try relogging when you're sitting at a long load screen and that will sometimes help get you through a little faster.

    Thanks again for your patience; we know this has been a very frustrating issue to deal with.

    yep, that definitely sounds like we figured out what is broke - but, it's gonna take a couple more weeks to fix...

    it'll be interesting to see if zos makes any attempt to revive pvp on the consoles...

    I have to imagine we'll end up losing around 50% of an already dwindling pvp population...

    Wait there may be hope, the just announced giving out free nix-ox mounts during a scheduled maintenance on Wed. 11/22 so maybe just maybe we will get a patch during the maintenance.
    We’re excited to let you know that we're giving away a free Nix-Ox War-Steed mount to all ESO: Morrowind players!


    For anyone who currently owns ESO: Morrowind, simply log into the game anytime between now and November 26. We’ll be giving out the first batch of Nix-Ox mounts during a scheduled maintenance next Wednesday, November 22. If you aren’t able to log in before then, we’ll be sending a second batch on Tuesday, November 28.

    If you don’t yet own ESO: Morrowind and would like to take advantage of this special offer, all you need to do is log into the game after purchasing ESO: Morrowind before November 26.

    Got into Vivec for a bit over the weekend. It’s all fun until you die. Then have to close app.

    The biggest Zerg my daggerfall brethren could muster up was half dozen men. I didn’t stay long, just enough for reward box.

    Got a cool new achievement for killing a grand overlord! He’d of wrecked me quickly, but my Bow ulti mowed him down while I ran for life.

    those unexpected victories are the bestest - especially when they come with an achievement :)

    some folks thrive on being the lone ranger and going around beating up on 2 or 3 players at a time - I an not one if them...

    so, most definitely with the load screen issue I want to stay around other players...i was playing DC a week or so agio and found myself pretty much alone on the map, and, didn't end up staying that long in cyrodiil...

    I've actually been in a good bit the last few days...mostly just trying to reach 100k AP on as many charactets as possible...

    I think though that crazy urge i have to do that with all my characters is starting to fade...i've finally reached a spot in the game where adding more gold isn't that crucial (thankfully i never got in to housing)...

    with the wrothgar event i went ahead and but my bosmer back into 1 piece kena, 5 pieces cowards gear, 5 pieces fiord's legacy to do some farming...

    I haven't crafted him speed pots - but, with his 30% from Cowards, 15% Fiords, 10% for hurricane, and 2% from the windrunner champion points - i'm guessing the only person faster than me should be an orc wearing the same gear...

    not quite sure what it means - but, both major protection and major expedition constantly show on my character screen...the drawback with cowards gear being that the tool tip states you need to be sprinting in order to gain major protection...haven't really tested it to see if it is on fact up 100% of the time...

    I had tried this setup briefly in cyrodiil and just found it frustrating (kept running into things) and really squishy (only had about 20k health in cyrodiil at that time)...

    re-tooled things a bit to get my health in cyrodiil up to 27k (still maintaining 3.1k weapon damage on bow and 2H with either power surge or rally) and experimented playing totally different from what i normally do...lots of roll dodging and sprinting around, my stam recovery is at around 2.2k, so that along with dark deal keeps me gassed up on stamina...

    usually i'm pretty relaxed and my combat speed is fairly pedestrian - i re-slotted crit rush and practiced playing at a much faster speed (while still trying to avoid running into every rock, tree and wall out there :#)...

    i'm thinking just maybe this build now could do pretty okay against other folks (at worse - chances are if i slot streak i can always run away if a fight starts heading in the wrong direction)...

    I haven't played PVP since the load screen issue. I've been leveling up my 2 new Wardens. RIP my EP Stamknight and EP Stamblade.

    I've also been playing on the EU server. Still amazed how alliances get anything done with all the different languagaes in zone chat. But since load screen problem is on EU server as well, I've been leveling up in Orsinium and farming materials. Funny how after 2 years since launch my PS4 NA account has thousands of mats and all skills. Playing from scratch is frustrating when trying to make food, pots and gear. And then trying to improve gear...oh man.

    is their zone chat as "spicy" :D as ours?

    Edit: I didn't even think about crafting for the first 8 months - the only reason I finally started was to be able to upgrade gear...

    about 18 or so months later - I have 26 more days to finally finish researching my very last trait - powered maul...

    weapon/armor and enchanting were brutal...

    oh man, wanted to hop on my EP mag dk yesterday - until I saw the current score and then looked at the map...

    nearly the whole flipping map was red...

    ended up finally taking my dunmer in to vardenfall...

    currently he's parked outside of the public dungeon on the north end of the map...

    the public dungeons are some of my most favorite content in the game...still haven't checked out those public dungeons in morrowind...

    in case you haven't heard yet...the loading screen fix should be done by Wednesday November 29...

    LOL Can't tell if zone chat is spicy or salty when I can't understand German, Spanish or any of the other languages. The English chat seems normal. Not as much drama.

    My new Wardens are spoiled. They got 5/2/2 epic gear starting at Level 10. 100K gold each to do as they please. With all that CP, they blazed through the first 9 levels with random gear. With tri-food and critical pots, they are buffed.

    My EU toons are grinding and grinding. I finally made 5/2/2 gear with half green and the rest white. And then whatever enchantments I can make or find. Not enough gold to buy. Oh the struggle.

    Sad to see only 1 bar each on Vivec US evenings when it used to be pop locked or at least three bars for each faction. On the upside less lag and disconnects because there are less people spamming skills. Just have to run in a group so someone can do rezzing to avoid the loading screens.

    grand overlord and then emp on back to back days - nice :)

    was playing EP a bit, weird night, ended up just riding around the countryside going in delves and checking different spots out...

    solo'd my first town, easier than the resources, only annoying thing was I killed the guards at the center flag first and by the time I had taken the other two flags, the guards had all re-spawned at the center flag...really :#
