This is the official discussion thread for the blog article "Check Out ESO during QuakeCon At Home!"

We’ve got livestreams, giveaways, Twitch Drops (including a free pet), and an exciting new Stonethorn trailer lined up for QuakeCon At Home. Here’s everything you need to know about ESO’s presence at this year’s special three-day virtual event.

Will they update us on the aoe tests for cyrodiil on there too?

Thanks

Will these streams be accompanied by a warning to the potential new players who may be watching that the gameplay they're seeing is not representative of how the game will actually play once the AOE changes go through?

Elsonso

Are the community team streams considered "official streams", or just the ones done by staff?

In addition to the above, there are a ton of amazing streams to check out from the community team, ESO streamers, and community members:

August 8 at 8AM EDT at twitch.tv/Bethesda_FR—French Community Manager Sanda Mauri hosts community members Artesio, Deastre, and MrElderScrolls for an ESO quiz (in French)

You just had to bring it here too? And why would they tell people about something that's isn't even shaped into the final change? Also, wouldn't these changes be Cyrodiil-only? PVP is not "the game" it's "the part of game" .

Wouldn't logic dictate that having a vastly different set of rules like 3 second cool downs in cyrodiil and no where else be confusing for new players and so the logical solution would be to add it to the entire game....

Nope. We have PVP-exclusive health buff and healing debuff and some remarks on abilities regarding their effect on players, like "enemy players will be silenced rather than stunned"

ZOS_SarahHecker

@Unified_Gaming we don't have an update on those tests at this time.

@Elsonso are you asking about Twitch Drops? If so, all those streams will have them!

New people in pvp get confused with the shields being different and why they see builds with 5k+ more health. This would be more confusing - you are encoauged to use a spamable to do damage in all of pve and then you may do bgs and can use it there but in cyrodiil you need to wait 3 seconds. It wouldn't be long until they made it 3 seconds in all of pvp and then an argument would be made to make it to pve too for both consistency and also performance gains - looking at trials specifically (lots of aoes here and also lag)

Can there please be a crown sale during this?

I'm updating my ESO Calendar. I'm not familiar with this twitch channel twitch.tv/Bethesda_nl. It looks like the Netherlands. Will the discussion be in Dutch, English, or other language?

I am assuming that the Bethesda streams with the language identifier, like NL and DE and FR, are in that language.

@ZOS_SarahHecker

I found the QuakeCon calendar.

There are some differences between the article and the QuakeCON schedule

Can twitch drops work on console yet? The page on how to link accounts still says the button wont appear for consoles.

Also, what happens if you have an old PC account? I haven't played on PC in years, I wouldnt want drops to accidentally go there instead?

ZOS_SarahHecker

@BenevolentBowd article is updated, thanks!

@AdamBourke Yup! We have instructions here: https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/news/post/57159

AdamBourke

@ZOS_SarahHecker Thanks for the link, turns out I had already linked my twitch account anyway!

If I have both a PC account and a PS4 account, how do I make sure drops go to the PS4 account? Or will they go to both?

If your accounts are properly linked you should get drops on both platforms. Hope that clears things up!

"Uncle Pete".... do you mean Pete Hines ?
Believe me, you don't want THAT guy to be your uncle now, do you ? :-)

Besides :

"August 8 at 1PM BST at twitch.tv/Bethesda_FR—French Community Manager Sanda Mauri hosts community members Artesio, Deastre, and MrElderScrolls for an ESO quiz (in French)"

We have a french community manager ? Really ?
It would be nice if - at least - the french community knew about it...

"watch any of the official ESO streams each day"

Do I have to watch one stream Friday Saturday and Sunday to get the pet, or can I get it just by attending one stream on one day?

You'll receive the pet by watching any of the streams on any one day. You don't have to watch all 3 days (though we would appreciate the support )

Any word on whether or not there's going to be a crown sale soon? Typically we tend to see them January - April - July/August, with Quakecon being one of the times we often see a crown sale in past years but so far there hasn't been even a peep to suggest if one is coming at all.
