QUES AND GROUP ACTIVITY LIKE DUGGENS BUT FOR TOHER PARTS OF GAME

my thought son the choices i made in poll.. and ideas..

i am not very good wording things.. because ei have dilexa and verbal and writing .. also typing.. so pleas ebe nice. thankyou..

think for others also who have left the game because less group content.. solo games like Skyrim and others are solo and multi playing games are meant to be played more group based than solo.. both can equally be in one setting thou..
the game should be for everyone.. not just solo playing people..
people think less about others as they did in the past.. that's truth there a real big one..
times changed in a big way.. people going own sep ways.. and people are there own selves.. people should have own options and opinions..
group playing content is leaving eso and its sad and so have the group playing people they left also.. we need solo yes but we also need ques and other cool things for trials and group content for solo is only in the game mostly.. add solo but also add group too.. thats idea only not must.. but . if anything no one likes speaking up.. i understand that i been in this forms reddit and other for while and i can say seen a lot people put people down.. its a fact..
solo demanding all the time
the group people left and are not bothering because bullies.. and mean people who keep soloing .. i understand why they gave up..

SOLO.. IS BETTER O.O

There's plenty of varied content currently, so both soloers and groupers are well provided for.

What's critical to appreciate in my view is that (a) the TES origins of the game make this a hybrid single player/multiplayer RPG rather than a traditional MMO (as stated in the past by ZOS) and (b) forced grouping kills a MMO especially if it wasn't designed that way from the ground up.

People leave games for a variety of reasons, some of which have been given in the case of ESO as burnout, performance issues, lack of support for PvP, balancing, major changes like the recent switch to account-wide achievements, individual dislike of the combat, and so on. One thing I don't recall seeing on the forum is any suggestion that significant numbers of players have left because of the lack of group content.

Let's also not forget that two of the four content releases each year are exclusively for groups, with additional group content included within the other two content releases as well. I think the present balance between solo and group content is a very fair one, although I'd personally like a delve or two added to the dungeon DLCs.

Incidentally, I'm not saying as per the poll option that solo is better, each to his or her own. I simply voted for the only solo option in an incredibly biased poll.

Same about voting for the only solo option because all the others were group.

I don't see a lack of group content:

Dungeons
Trials
World bosses
All world events like harrowstorms
Group arenas

As previously mentioned, two of the four content releases every year are for groups. Yes, there are players who can solo lots of the above, but there are many players who can't and require a group. For those who prefer to solo for whatever reason, a lot of content is already unavailable to them.

OTOH, this game has plenty of solo content too.

There's a good mix of group/solo stuff. I think bringing in more group content at the expense of solo stuff would harm the game in terms of population, not help it. Just my opinion.

SOLO.. IS BETTER O.O

Labyrinth mode (random dungeon generator) that scales with the number of players that enter the instance (1-12 player instance). Any boss/enemy (world, event, delve, etc.) Can end up making an appearance.

Each run is never the same. Might enter one area and be on a beach, and then the next area takes you into a snowy area. Can have more than one boss up at a time and the scaling will determine the difficulty.

The further you go, the harder the experience becomes. A delve boss found here will definitely be tougher while a world/event boss might be a bit toned-down if there is only a few players present.

Due to the randomness of the experience, mechanics that require interrupts have a more unique telegraph. Players can also break free from these of they are solo or just with their companion.

This is just something that I personally would like to see.

SOLO.. IS BETTER O.O

Since we now have 4 available companions, I like the option to be able to take 3 from my roster to run Group Dungeons together; you still count as a single player though. You're already doing it solo with or without a companion, I don't see a problem with a feature that lets you do it with 3 to make it feel like a full party.

I don't do group content now, so certainly don't want a lot more of it. I'm not going to dump my huge ping on other people to deal with.

QUES FOR GROUP AREAS DELVES AND ALL CONTENT IF CAN CHOOSE GO SOLO OR GROUP

I think providing a solo option for group activity is the way to go, because a lot of players like having that choice. I'm not one hundred percent certain I chose the right poll option for that, but that's what it sounded like. I personally enjoy being able to complete content solo.

Variety and small QOL improvements are what I would most like to see, myself. In terms of specific activities it's difficult for me to say, I just want to log in and feel that there are many possibilities. Not that I don't right now, but I think an MMO needs to consistently add content to attract new players, and eventually I'll complete the things I'm working on too.

What this and other MMOs need is more quality, casual drop-in, group activities like Rift did 11 years ago with their chaotic and disruptive zone invasions.

Dolmens, geysers and all the other informal ESO group events are highly localized, poor substitutes for the roaming packs of elite mobs that went everywhere in a zone when invasions happened in Rift.

But hey, for that to happen here they'd have to figure out a way to have more than 40 players near each other without crashing the zone

And most "big" MMOs of the last decade had plenty of things that could be done 'solo', because the publishers want all the customers. And there's only so many old-skool "grouping for everything!" MMO players out there.

Even most 'endgame' progression raiders don't want to need a group to harvest mats / level / do overland.

Gosh... That poll has by far too many options, got lost!

For me personally, ESO has a pretty good balance between mandatory-solo, optional-solo and mandatory non-solo. I don't see a need for changes.

I'm mostly a soloer but this game has sooo much content for all players,

Would very much a storyline dungeon mode. No rewards, just so I could see the story unfold without gaps.

The vanilla questline is solo.
I wish all main quests were either solo or instanced for group members alone with a veteran option that would actually sell the boss of the story as an actual threat to mankind and not some puny delve-boss with nice visuals.

If things are going to be solo, they should be instanced, otherwise there is no challenge with another random player popping in. Otherwise, difficulty should be bumped, each story boss should be at least as hard as a world boss with half health.
