Where do you think "Chapter 2018" will take place ? And what do you wish for it to contain?

The rest of the Summerset Isles because an important quest figure tells you that's where you're going.

Perhaps I missed something, but who tells you that you're going there?

I know that the Prophet and Azura both told you that you'd be going to Vvardenfell after completing the base game story. I haven't run into anyone mentioning Summerset though.

Vvardenfell was justified as being a Chapter because of its scale. .

I would disagree.

It was justified being called a chapter because Morrowind has many many rabid fans who would shell out mucho dinero to play in "Morrowind" again. And I number myself among them.

The scale is annoying. It's like they took original Morrowind and ran it through the dryer on "super-shrink". Tiny. Horribly tiny.

It's the same size as the original Vvardenfell. There are just mounts in ESO, faster movement speed, and wayshrines. The game is also way easier to navigate, so you get from point A to point B much quicker (you're just following quest markers). View distance is also much longer in ESO.

all these ideas on this post have given me to many hopefull dreams

2. SPELLCRAFTING

Was it confirmed that they are working on this, some sort of one hand and rune system?

No it was just cinematic in the trailer. As i understand spellcrafting is on the back burner.
Think its either too limited to be fun or too OP as I see it as an nightmare to balance. Say you could simply set the spell cost and effect, now make an crystal shards or dark flare who cost 4x the magic but cost 4x as much magic.
In pvp you want maximum burst so you would want expensive spells doing high damage.
Pve you rather want lots of DoT and debuffs,

Agreed Spell Crafting is going to be a pain to balance out especially for pvp, But It would be awesome if they could find a way to balance it all out.

If they get to it, I predict it will be incredibly broken but fun as hell and then eventually get adjusted and balanced.

Everyone would just use the same spells if they are strong. They can make the spells very niche, but then nobody would use them.

It's not a good idea from a diversity perspective in an MMO. It's designed for single player games.

Enemy-of-Coldharbour

Murkmire

olsborg

Spellcrafting and Jewelrycrafting is at the top of my list. As for where and what new class...I dont really have a clue, maybe a necromancer of some sort.

Aelorin

As a fan of the Elder Scrolls and High Elves ever since Morrowind, I would love to set foot on the Summerset Isles.

Also, it would be a good setting to introduce spellcrafting ;-)

gepe87

Maybe a refreshed Cyrodill (more keeps and places)or another alliance war zone(new pvp mode to justify to be an expansion), and a new race (I don't think they add 1 class every year, it would be hard to balance among other classes).

Pastas

Where is Arateum?

Xylthax

I think there's a good chance for it to be either Murkmire or Mephala's Realm, but Artaeum is definitely interesting.

I wouldn't be too surprised to see a new class, Necromancer and Ravager are most likely I think. ZoS has mentioned that they were considering Necromancer, but were struggling with the colour schemes overlapping with NB, however public interest has been really intense since then, so I think Necromancer will make a comeback. I would also like to point out that Monk is very unlikely, since ZoS has stated on multiple occasions that they aren't making classes that are tied to weapons. (Monks are generally unarmed). In Eso, every class being able to use every weapon is a big deal, and I think ZoS wants to stick to that, so Monks and Spearmen are out.

Having said all that, 1 hand and rune as a new weapon type is probably going to happen, we had a new class this year, so I think a weapon type is most likely next year.

In terms of new content, I would be surprised to see spell-crafting, but I think Jewellery crafting is likely. I also expect a new type of PvP if the story is actually progressing into a Daedra war. That'll be cool if it happens too. But most of all I actually want storage in housing, I believe having a place to hoard your treasures is so underrated, it's crazy. I think adding storage would really increase player retention, just from increasing the value and functionality of housing. (Players who feel like they really live in Eso wont care about leaving, even if their main class gets nerfed this month).

Mitrenga

Not Argonia, please...

KeiruNicrom

Another realm of oblivion. Mephalas realm was in production long ago so supposedly we will go there but i assumed that the Shadows of the hist DLC was the assets from Mephalas and Murkmire adventure zone being used in dungeons instead.

One day i hope we visit Malacaths realm. I wish to watch a certain king and his mother fueling the ashen forge

Korah_Eaglecry

Likely itll be Murkmire as its the last Zone that we are aware they were working on that has yet to be released. It probably would of been out by now but Morrowinds Cash Grab Anniversary got in the way of that.

I am hoping we get Elsweyr.

As for what new content I want in it, A
I'd love to see different khajiit and argonian sub-races become playable (they would have the same racials).

But most likely this wouldn't happen...

I really wish elsweyr doesent happen... so many aspects of lore and khajiit society that ZOS would undoubtedly miss out. Such as a sub race of khajiit kept as house pets, intelligent speaking pets. Another sun species is that one of the war cat's (can't remember there exact name but for their use I e called them that) that khajiits would ride into battle on, also they sold their battle capabilities to others in a mercenary like deal. The gods are also different, they still commonly worship the divines but with subtle differences such as being more feline related and the representaion on slightly different things.

Elsweyr would be cool, but only if ZOS did it correctly which I doubt they will.

It'll take place in the future in space and they'll call it Destiny 2

Probably at the end of 2020

Oh wait, you said, "Where"

Developers are targeting new chapter every year .

ProfesseurFreder

Just so long as it's not in the northern regions of Tamriel. I feel like the north has had a lot of attention paid to it, a lot of areas in the map filled in, while the southeast and southwest have been languishing. I really want to see the southwest island home of the High Elves. Also, more areas in The Land of The *** People. Seems like there's a good story or three in that region waiting to be told.

Necromancer Class
Skill lines include raising dead, dark energy (projectiles, gap closer, major defile AOE debuffs), something kind of infectious disease damage, similar to the fetcher fly ability which spreads from one enemy to many.


Cyrodiil Enhancements
Dynamic world events in Cyrodiil. New quests and gameplay features incorporating alliance-wide buffs from capturing various delves, ayeleid ruins, Cheydinhal, Chorrol. New types of siege weapons, barriers and traps you can craft and place around the towns and inside delves, maybe require control of nearby resources like lumbermill etc. Imperial City separated into its own campaign you can queue directly to enter. Guild store dialogue menu added to banker at Cyrodiil base and all Quartermasters at resources, towns and outposts, providing a reason to claim those, and access to trading for many more guilds and buyers.

Ahhh, second this!

Specially the Cyrodiil enchancements. It could really use a facelifft and mixing some PvE elements would do the trick!

Dracofyre

tap tap, microphone working?

Blackreach, largest underground zone, with potionental for new alchemy recipes for Red Nirnroots, glowing moss, falmir ears, with several dwemer towers and vaults to explore, design for all new rare "Master Survey Maps".
concept for rarely often survey maps are unique only in this zone., since they are next tier alchemy, Blue grade regents.

also with lost motif to be discover, Snow Elves Motifs and Falmor Motifs.

new recipes for provesioning, Chili varieity, peppers, both sweet and hot, eggs, and new spices, (anise, licorice, cinnamon, and chocolate).

edit to add, plenty of room to have Blackreach expanded, for Malkarth, connecting to underground city and silver mines.

xaraan

Don't know what it is, but it should be an AD zone. Since we've had a DC and EP zone released now (Wrothgar and Morrowind, even though it's not officially EP alliance story wise). I'd love to see Summerset or Elsweyr.

And I have to say, like I always do, I don't mind paying for these yearly "expansions" but I still want my fourth piece of ESO plus content. We only got three his year b/c of Morrowind. So if they are going to do this yearly, should be expect less from our plus sub now?

RupzSkooma

Thanks to everyone for commenting . I am surprised by some of the mindblowingly awesome and unique ideas you guys can come up with. I am glad I started this thread.
Hopefully devs should really take notes of what to do from your suggestions and mix it up.

Chapter 2018 may be based on what we will learn from Cloakwork City Q4 this year

Jake1576

Aldermeri Dominion has yet to get any new areas released on are side of the map dc got wrothgar ep got vardenfell hoping the next chapter will be over by aldermeri Dominion side maybe the summerset isles or something

Yolokin_Swagonborn

"Chapter 2018" will just be a previously planned but never released DLC, with some extra crap tacked on to make it feel more like an expansion than just the DLC it is. Bonus points if there is a huge inaccessible area in the middle.


History repeats itself.

Gan Xing

IDC where,

I just want more
Housing
Jewelry crafting,
Spell Crafting
adjustments to Warden so they have more direct damage Ice damage abilities (among other adjustments)
More Crafted sets

Keep dreaming.

Ship sailing not happening.
But underwater combat is very feasible . Guild wars 2 nailed underwater combat in an MMO . Even though I don't like that game.

Underwater combat isn't happening either. Not without a serious overhaul to the engine. Various developers including Matt (I think) have talked about it in the past.

Really ?
Can you give me the source ?

Sources, plural. It's come up in a bunch of AMAs, ESO Lives, and other open question forums. Most of that would have been back around 2015. I don't have any citations at hand, though, sorry.

If you want the experience of underwater combat just play PvP at primetime.
