Two-Person Mount: Seeking some transparency Please

electriczzz

ZOS has non automated responses? That's a new one! If they keep it up maybe there's hope left

The communication and transparency from Zos is a breath of fresh air! Thanks for the update Kevin!

Hi All. Thanks for the follow-up here, @AyeshaBelladonna. Currently, we have identified some additional work we need to do for the mount and while we do still plan to release it, it's a little ways off. Thanks for your continued patience and stay tuned for details.

This is the type of communication we have been waiting for. Thank you.

Ugh...why?

@ZOS_Kevin has really come in swinging lately. I am impressed and heartened.

Also, back when this mount was first mentioned, I felt very "meh" about it. But now that my friend is playing with me and it takes ages to train up mount speed, I wish that I could help her out by us riding a 2-seater mount together with my full rider stats. Also, playing Red Dead Online with her and running around collecting antiquities together in tandem on one of our horses is way more fun than riding separately all the time (also, she tends to be crash-prone and I'm less so, so we prefer me driving while she rides on the back LOL). So, that experience also made me actually reconsider how a 2-person mount in ESO could be beneficial for those it appeals to.

Thanks for the reply, Kev!

I'm willing to (patiently) wait until Q1 2022. With companions and housing additions, I'm good for now.

LOL...exactly. I cannot count the number of times I've heard "hang on, caught on a lamppost" or "oops, stop, fell off a cliff." xD

Remember when they promised spell crafting? Group mounts? Combat updates? Lag fixes? bug fixes? They promise alot, and deliver very little.

Since you apparently failed to read the header, the group mount is exactly what this post is about. Which, compared to spell crafting, we actually got to see. So its actively in progress. And zos has given us an update as requested.

Unlike spell crafting, which they only ever discussed while we were still in beta and that few months after launch till they discovered console would need to be drastically postponed. After that they said no more about it beyond the dev spearheading that project left so it was going to have to be shelved.

Combat updates and lag improvements, idk what game you've been playing but since beta i have seen MASSIVE improvements across most areas of the game. it's not perfect no...but no MMO is. All popular MMO's struggle with content vs performance vs customization.

Last year they overhauled many features of combat, redid the coding of the game to change how it patches entirely and shrunk the base game significantly client side while increasing content all the while, and every patch fixes bugs.

Sorry they have not performed up to your personal expectations but you're off on a tangent and just want to complain on a post that simply wanted some transparency- which they gave us.
